3 Types of Cannabis That Can Make You Feel More Confident
Cannabis can produce some very specific effects to help you loosen up and feel more comfortable in your own skin. It can help you to feel motivated, uplifted and even more focused on the subject at hand. It can help inspire your creativity and increase your energy.
Of course, all of the above will likely factor in you building and gaining confidence. Which means, while consuming it isn’t some magical ‘quick fix’ for suddenly feeling confident, cannabis can indeed be put to effective use in this department. Consider it a great building block.
What strains are best? We could easily rattle off 10 or 15. Instead, we’re going to focus on three unique ones for now. (Big thanks to WikiLeaf for always being such an amazing resource for this stuff!)
1. Chronic Thunder
If the powerful name doesn’t inspire confidence, surely the bud itself will. By crossing the long established and superior genetics of both the legendary Alaskan Thunder with the stable and high yielding Dr. Chronic, this indica-dominant blend boasts funky aromas of diesel, herbs and pepper, while producing a relaxing, satisfied high with a unique dried cinnamon fragrance and delicious flavour. Testing at an average of 20 per cent THC, the available research on Chronic Thunder flower further suggests that it lends itself well to mental health conditions, from mild to moderate anxiety, to depression, to stress, to bipolar disorder. Just be aware of your limits before sampling this one. It comes from a long line of strong strains.
2. Double Dream
It’s a cross between Blue Dream and Dream Star. In fact, it doubles down on the former. The result? A fruity sativa-dominant hybrid with a mellow, balanced high that will indeed leave you… sigh... dreamy. Sorry, we couldn’t resist. Seriously, though. With flowers found to have an average THC content of 20 per cent, it’s been said that this strain’s effect on the brain takes the form of rambling creative inspiration more so than cerebral stimulation. As for your thoughts, they may feel elevated or particularly significant, yet have a hazy, dreamlike quality. At the very least, the surreal but functional high should give you confidence in what careful cannabis crossbreeding can truly achieve.
3. Dr. Feelgood
You can’t do a list of cannabis types that make you feel more confident without including one called “Dr. Feelgood.” That’s exactly what this potent, well-balanced hybrid does: it makes you feel good, with THC levels that range from 16 to 20 per cent, CBD levels that run from one to 10 per cent, and physical effects that can be as therapeutic as they are entertaining. It’s a gradual, creeping high. Sights and sounds may consequently take on a new dynamic. All in all, these trippy effects are known to bolster creativity in some, rendering this a quality strain to enjoy during moments of solo introspection. In more social settings, it can stimulate engaging and free-flowing conversation.
