Most euphoric weed strainsMost euphoric weed strains

Weed strains that induce euphoria are by far the most common, as it’s one of the most sought-after effects among recreational users. However, medical patients often seek these effects not only for their pain-relieving properties but for their psychoactive effects, as living with chronic debilitating conditions can take a toll on our self-esteem. In such cases, these effects can bring some joy back and help alleviate the burden. Euphoric effects often refer to positive cerebral stimulation, mood elevation, or a tingly sense of happiness that overtakes the mind and body. This means that Indicas, Sativas, and Hybrids can offer intense euphoria. It is known that THC plays a major role in this type of effect but the specific combination of cannabinoids and terpenes is yet unknown. If you’re looking to find the most euphoric weed strain, you’ll find it on the list below.

Why does weed make you feel euphoric?

The biggest reason weed makes you feel euphoric is linked to THC, the most commonly occurring cannabinoid in cannabis — and the cannabinoid primarily connected to weed’s intoxicating effects. THC’s efficacy for instilling a state of euphoria all comes down to the way it interacts with the endocannabinoid system (ECS). THC binds directly to CB1 receptors in the brain areas connected to pleasure, emotions, and sensory perception — ultimately triggering the psychoactive euphoria weed is famous for. It also causes a surge in dopamine, one of the brain's “feel-good” chemicals, a neurotransmitter responsible for pleasure, motivation, and reward. High dopamine levels are directly linked to high levels of euphoria. It’s also structurally similar to anandamide (AEA), one of two naturally-occurring endocannabinoids in the body. Named after the Sanskrit word ananda — meaning bliss —  it plays a huge role in emotions, mood, and experiencing pleasure. One study even found that AEA would cause the same intoxicating effects as cannabis if it wasn’t for the presence of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), the enzyme responsible for its breakdown.  

What is the strongest euphoric weed strain?

While there are several potent euphoric strains, one of the strongest is is the particularly potent Permanent Marker — an indica-dominant hybrid with 34% THC known for an uplifting, euphoric high that inspires creativity and a positive state of mind, while simultaneously relaxing the body without zapping energy. It’s one of the strongest euphoric weed strains for anyone interested in a potent, perfectly balanced daytime buzz, with effects so amazing it won the title of “2023 Leafly Strain of the Year.”
