CBD has been linked with alleviating depression, anxiety, insomnia, and more, making it into a great option for people who are looking for medicinal effects. Still, even if you’re someone who’s not looking for the medicinal effects of CBD, these types of strains can be a good fit if you’ve had negative experiences with THC or are looking to try something new.

As is the case with most forms of cannabis, the way in which the compound is consumed matters and affects your high. Smoked CBD acts faster than CBD consumed orally, for example. Some experts believe that smoked CBD might be more effective than CBD consumed orally, which takes some time to kick in and is difficult to notice if you’ve never experienced it before.
