Does Sativa Make You Sleepy or Hyper?

Sativa can cause some users to be more prone than others to feel hyper from sativa.

This can happen due to a variety of reasons such as:

• Physiological make-up
• Method of intake; and
• Dosage

The effects are determined by the individual person’s physiology. 

If someone has a nervous system that is oversensitive or has compromised dopamine neurotransmitter levels, the effects of THC might be increased and they will probably react more severely than most people. 

Some people also have a lower affinity for THC compared to other cannabinoids so it doesn’t produce any significant reactions one way or another.

Sativa could also make users feel hyper because of the way it is ingested. 

For example …

If someone inhales cannabis, they will experience a faster absorption and onset time than if they ingest or eat it.

The dosage can also affect how sativa makes someone feel. 

An individual’s dosage will be determined by:

• Their body weight
• How much cannabis they have access to
• What type of cannabis sativa they have

No matter which method an individual uses to ingest or smoke, THC has a different effect on everyone.
