This strain was recommended to me by a Tucson bud tender when I asked him to recommend a Sativa that could help with my Chronic Pain, Depression & Anxiety yet help with my ADD, morning fatigue, fogginess, lack of motivation and loss of creativity. If I'd have had my Good Old Leafly with me I'd have been able to check the NEGATIVES to discover it causes paranoia and anxiety. I know now that there are tons of other strains that would have been more suitable. From now on I *will* take Leafly into every dispensary and research each recommended strain to check that it checks out on all three categories: Effects, Medical & Negatives. I do use Gth to turn on the creative juices; but only when I'm in a solid, positive headspace where the anxiety & paranoia aren't as likely to creep up on me. Even then, I start out slow, vaping at a low temperature, letting the effects slowly come on so I can switch to a different strain (one that will counteract the anxiety & paranoia. It just goes to show that WE, the consumer/patient shouldn't overly rely on Budtenders advice. Don't get me wrong; Most of them are the most knowledgeable, kind, compassionate people you'd ever meet. But not everyone takes the job for the love of spreading the word on this remarkable healing plant. They see so many repeat customers (especially in legal states) that they begin to assume every customer knows the score. But many medical patients haven't smoked weed since it came in baggies (the fold top that you had to roll & lick to seal) with stems & seeds.) They don't want to look stupid so they don't ask the questions. Budtenders need to be proactive and approach customers in a way that puts them at ease so they feel free to ask so-called "dumb questions", which of course there aren't any.
