You are fairly spot on with your assessment of me. It may all be gobbledygook and placebo but I’ve found that bud that is heavy in the Caryophyllene is very effective at helping reduce pain and inflammation when I’m dealing with a flare up of an as yet undiagnosed gastrointestinal issue, allowing me to function under conditions that would otherwise leave me huddled in agony on the toilet all day. The limonene heavy strains are great for jogging me out of depression induced apathy, and yeah the myrcene does great knocking me out when I’m having trouble staying asleep.
Tbh I'm quite jealous of people who just enjoy that sort of default blend. Too much Limonene makes me incredibly anxious, like I have a head full of sick bees. My wife is kind of that way. I can keep an eye on her moods and bring home weed that's just right for her, but she'll never be entirely unhappy with a big stash of weed. She'll just need more of something that is less specifically ideal in the moment. There are cannabis products that will induce a panic attack in me if I take too much and cannabis products that will make me feel heavenly every time. If the top two terps are 1.5% Limonene and 0.98% Terpinoline, that's a pretty green panic attack waiting to happen. If you have digestive issues, you should look into CBG and Humulene heavy strains. CBG is known for helping with pain and digestion and inflammation. Humulene is known for reducing appetite and counteracting the munchies, and I find that it settles my stomach if it's not unsettled from being too empty.
Thanks for the tips! I’m very grateful for how cannabis interacts with my brain chemistry. I am predispositioned to stress induced anxiety and panic attacks and consuming pretty much any flower that isn’t absolute garbage will at the very least “take the edge off” and the act of preparing and smoking the flower provides an excellent opportunity for relaxation and bringing the stress levels down before even taking the effects of the weed itself into account. I’ll definitely have to start looking out for good Humulene and CBG heavy strains.
