ACDC reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain ACDC.
After a decade on benzos It was time to get off as they did nothing for me at all anymore. I found this strain among others and decided to give it a try for its anxiety effects. It ended up getting me more messed up than higher THC strains like Jack Herer and Shishkaberry. I was on the floor chewing on pepper (which actually helps) world spinning out of control, high AF after 1 pipe hit. I was vaping it before, while I was in withdrawal, and didn't notice anything close to this drastic. Tried it again but took less of a pull on the pipe and close to the same effects. Apparently this is not for me. Prefer Jack Herer during the day and Blackberry Kush or Shishkaberry for the evening. Definitely way mellower when vaped.

This flower smell amazing! I pretty much sit there and sniff the package before actually taking it :)
This strain does not get me high. Nor do I feel a body buzz. But that's not what this strain is for.
This stuff works great after work. I work a rather physical job and can sometimes come home sore and stressed out. This strain takes that all away.
When first using this strain, I didn't even notice the effects till I really thought about it.
Can't say it made me relaxed, but having anxiety, depression and physical pain melt away is good enough for me :)
pretty decent high, not very munchie. Take gentle hits though, its a liitle harsh on the throat
I sought out this particular strain for the high CBD content. High THC sometimes tends to trip me out. This didn't get me high, just a nice buzz - which is exactly what I was looking for. I could function normally as well as relax a bit. This would be a strain I would always keep with me.
Using an Arizer Argo I use this strain to keep my anxiety at bay as well as give me a big of a mild body buzz during the day. 4 puffs @ 360 do me quite well for 3-4 hours, re-up during lunch. In my continued efforts to get off pharmaceuticals for PTSD this strain is extremely competent in replacing klonopin. The smell is wicked skunky with pinesol. Very little psychoactive disturbance for advanced smokers I doubt you' feel anything at all. I am extremely sensitive to THC as a soma-somatic person. So I enjoy the creepers instead of the ones that bounce on your face immediately. This strain comes on slow and feel good all day long. Def a staple in my medicine cabinet...
Like a lot of folks dealing with PTSD, I have a hard time finding treatment aids that help with attention and focus, while at the same time, keeping my anxiety at bay. I think this strain is the best I've found so far for striking that balance. It is both uplifting and calming, leaving me clearheaded and productive. Body-wise, it has a pleasant, mild tingly effect.
In general, I gravitate towards mildish strains that give me a lot of control over the intensity of impact, and ACDC is great in that regard, too. I've played around with a variety of vape temps (as well as good, old-timey smoking) and have found it to be delightfully consistent, predictable, and adjustable in its effects.
ACDC has changed my life. I smoked for many years in my 20's. I had a medical issue that put me close to death. When i recovered, all of my old favorite strains cause severe debilitating anxiety. I went to the emergency room convinced that I was having a heart attack. This is coming from someone that rolled a one ounce jumbo joint for her 21st birthday and smoked a quarter of it by herself,lol. So I stopped smoking, and i cried about it a lot. Lady cannabis has always been my healer, if i couldn't sleep, was having anxiety, had nausea, pain etc, i always had my sweet lady cannabis. About 5 years later, I heard about ACDC and strains like Charlotte's web. I sought them out, but living in Ma, there is no CW. I did find ACDC after much searching. I was still scared, so I sent a sample to a local lab to have the THC/CBD etc examined. She came in at 19% CBD and .8 percent THC. I was excited but still nervous. I tried just a little puff, but didn't hold it in at first. Then I got up the courage to hold a puff in and, oh my goodness. Instant relief, giggles, relaxation, lessened back and bladder pain, and a hint of the munchies. I can't say enough about my sweet girl ACDC, bless the healing power of cannabis. ACDC has a piney scent with hints of earth and pungency, she has light red hairs and medium green leaves.

I'm one of the few people for whom CBS does not have much of an effect, so this was probably wasted on me. Not much of a high, not really worth smoking for me.
