Giggly?

[Elbuort19]

I was looking at strains on leafly and noticed the effect "Giggly" listed in the search filters. Below are just a couple of examples of cannabis with a high giggly effect. lol

I've never tried any of these strains so I'm curious about this giggly effect. I have severe PTSD along with other associated ailments so I can't help but think that cannabis making me laugh would be a good thing.

Anyway I'd like to hear other members experiences with these strains so if you can pass on any info it would be appreciated! Thanks!

Dutch style hazes are excellent for giggly type of high.

Did it have you cracking up or was it mild?
I've never had this effect before so I'd like to find a popular strain and see if any LP's have it.
As an added bonus sheeple would probably be less fearful of me if I was giggling all the time. lol
Seriously though when all you feel is anger, guilt, depression and physical pain laughter would be a welcome treat!

I have a strain called "Cookies".... Not GirlScout Cookies (Ive had this before).

This one got me in trouble with Wifey till we figured out what was up. When I brought home Cookies from the dispensary, tried .01g. Was a friday afternoon. Nice effects! Uplifting and mellow. Nice hybrid. So where's the problem here?

Well, about 15 minutes later, wifey wants to talk some. Everything she was saying, well, I found hella funny. And it wasn't. Nothing horribly wrong, but nothing that should have sparked giggling... yet there I was.... holding back tears because I needed to laugh!

It's also a pretty distracting strain, should one wish to forget something for a while....

The two bhang strains listed are both in concentrate form. I've had super sour diesel...very uplifting but it didn't set off any giggling fits.

I'd suggest you experiment some to see what works for your PTSD. It's an all-too-common ailment, and different people get some relief by indicas or sativas. Sativa will likely improve mood, but it can set off patterns of thinking that may not be beneficial. I'd probably start with a very heavy indica and go from there.

X2. funny you should mention Dutch hazes. In 2014 I dragged my non-using buddy into an Amsterdam coffee shop to get him to try it.
Had some really nice Amnesia Haze in a Verdamper. After a few hits I asked if he was feeling anything and his answer was, " No, giggle giggle, I don't think giggle giggle, that I'm feeling anything, giggle giggle".
It doesn't do it to me but has that effect on some

Giggly i would say is something an inexperienced toker is likely to experience, like when your a kid and you're so baked someones funny mannerisms may send you into a fit of hysterical laughter. The key to getting the giggles is getting stupid high.

Ye man the dutch style hazes. . Super silver haze and all its derivatives .. amnesia, super lemon great shit .. my favourites

Lemon Haze. Had some Lemon Haze shatter from CO (sadly all gone now) and I would laugh hysterically at anything remotely funny. Love it.

And @VapourHaze, I'm 64 and have chased cannabis since I was 14. Yeah, I don't get the giggles too often anymore...but when I do I love it and chase that.

Cheers all

Yeah that's the way I'm leaning too but out of the 2093 listings on leafly only 229 report this effect so I'm loosely hoping there's more to it. Maybe one of these 229 will turn me back into the life of the party that I used to be. lol

There we go! My newest LP's has Super Lemon Haze so I'll give that a shot. Looks like Sour OG might be another one to try.

Sounds promising and with low dosage but none of my LP's have it. I'll keep an eye out.

Vaping various indicas every hour and mixing in sativas if I get tired in the daytime. Went from 8hrs sleep a week to 35ish with some minor pain reduction. I've only tried about 40 or so known strains and never had a laughing fit or smirk on my face but maybe PTSD prevents this. Spent a bunch of time doing just sativas but only got good sedation when it was in the form of shatter and edibles. Only negative issue I've had with sativas is that some strains trigger my anxiety so I avoid those. My preferred dosing regime would be a gram of oil a day via shatter and capsules but I won't be able to graduate to this schedule for another 10 months.

Novice user gets effect while experienced used does not...shit! lol

Holy shit that's 50 years man! I bet you know a trick or two. Going on a month long shatter binge in October which I only get to do 3 times a year. I know boohoo its still 3 months of the year but the way I look at it its not 12. I'm a glass half empty guy. lol Anyway there will be a couple of strains that I haven't tried so maybe I'll get the giggles. The chase is on!

I'm in the same boat. I find it's not so much strain specific as what is happening and who I'm with at the time. I can vape a strain and not get the giggles or even feel high. But as soon as my bestie comes over and we vape together? I'll be laughing until tears are streaming down my cheeks. It's ridiculous.

Dammit! Environment/situation + friends...those are all a big red X for me. Starting to look like an "it's not you, it's me" situation. My dream of sitting in my bunker laughing hysterically to myself maybe fleeting but I'll still try those other strains just to be thorough.

 

[syrupy]

Maybe it was the power of suggestion, but after reading this thread, I tried a strain called Herijuana
and went past smiling into laughing. Part was setting, as I was watching Idiocracy and President Camacho was cracking me up.

 

[CarolKing]

For me it's the same as with @momofthegoons. When I'm with my best buddy when we are vaporizing and getting medicated, we are constantly laughing and cracking each other up. It depends on the setting and who I am with a lot of the time for me.

And isn't it ridiculous how high you feel at those times? For some reason, I feel the high much more intensely in that moment than when I'm equally buzzed and by myself. It's an interesting phenomena.

 

[Elbuort19]

Same thing happens when there's an Officer on scene. Turns bog weed into top tier. lol
