Marijuana highs tend to appear in two ways: head highs and body highs. Here’s how to tell the difference.

Weed use tends to produce two effects: body highs and head highs. While it’s very difficult to predict the type of high you’ll get when first trying a new strain or method of ingestion, it’s slightly easier to differentiate a head high from a body high. If you’ve been around weed for a while, you’ve likely experienced the two.

Broadly speaking, head highs are all about creativity, finding things funny, or getting into those talky moods. Body highs are relaxing and tingly, when you feel like having a delicious nap or snuggling up to someone.

It’s difficult to target the type of high that you’ll get, but usually sativas are associated with mind highs and indicas with body highs. According to Vice, the method of consumption can also have an effect. “When you smoke, the cannabinoids go straight into your lungs,” explained Dr. Laurie Holtzman. “They go right into your blood supply, into your brain, across the blood-brain barrier and then you get the high.” Edibles, on the other hand, are associated with body highs.

Here are 5 ways to differentiate which kind of marijuana high you’re experiencing:
