*'''[[Sedation|Sedation]]''' - Although certain strains of cannabinoids present mild encouraged [[Stimulation|stimulation]] at low to moderate doses, for the most part the effects on the user's energy levels are primarily sedating. This encourages one to relax, but can, however, be suppressed by simply forcing oneself to engage in physical activities.

*'''[[Motor control loss|Motor control loss]]''' - ~~This substance causes~~ a partial to moderate suppression of motor control which intensifies proportional to dosage but rarely results in a complete inability to walk and perform basic movements.

*'''[[Geometry]]''' - Certain cannabinoids are capable of inconsistently inducing mild to intense psychedelic geometry at high doses. Within many users who also regularly use psychedelics, however, ~~it is~~ capable of inducing these consistently in a visual style which seems to be an averaged out depiction of all the psychedelics one has used within the past. These rarely extend beyond level 4 and are considered to be mild, fine, small and zoomed out (but often well-defined).
