Best strain for Anxiety

[zee]

Hey everyone

I have had chronic stomach pains and a bunch of other symptoms for a couple of years now and I just got to the conclusion that I have severe anxiety.

does MJ really help anxiety? and what is the best strain for this purpose (to relax, but still be able to function throughout the rest of the day)?

Go and try some G13 if you can get some. Mr. Nice will work too (hashplantxG13). I don't know but I just had some and it was great. Very uplifting. Maybe try DJ Short Motovation or Flo,

I have found train wreck works well for me...

 

[zee]

would all of those strains be considered "popular"? i prefer something that i can get at a club to avoid having to order beans by mail

 

[willRavage]

Train wreck or Hogs Breath

 

[Lacy]

Wow thank guys.
Its strange how train wreck is sativa but good for anxiety.

 

[bicycle racer]

any of the og kush strains work great

wat ever you do dont smoke sativas. Iv anxiety and sativas only worsen the anxiety.

Similar experience with sativa's, suffered periodically with acute anxiety and panic disorder and found the cerebral high of sativa only worsens the problem. I stick to a minimum 75%/25% indicas now. Try Master Kush or Afghan Kush for anxiety it works for me- only prob is I cant be arsed to go for a piss!!!

Honestly, my true favorite for anxiety would have to be Blue Dream, man when I am sitting somewhere feeling my pulse race and have trouble getting air, I walk away take a few tokes off of some Blue Dream and calm myself back down, It is the best!

i had a really bad acid trip once. ever since then when i smoke too much of the good stuff i get panic attacks..

 

[blaze024]

white widow works great for me

i was prescribed my cannabis card for anxiety i have learned that strong indicas are best oddly enough 1or2 bong hits hits may make me nervous sometimes but 3or4 never does go figure. i must say i am very very happy not to have to use any xanax or other pills which i was addicted to. when you come down from them it is terrible yet cannabis has none of these negatives yet it is stigmatized must be a money issue who are the real drugdealers (pharmacutical companies) 'shareholders' disgusting hope you find a strain that works for you and yes it helps for me

 

[Lacy]

Have to agree with you on all of this here.
Great read.
Thank you

if you want to medicate all dayi would sugest an indica dominate cross. super silver haze and skunk strains are lower on the thc scale allthough the silver haze can be quite potent the mix creates a very functional anti anxiety high . be careful not to over medicate to keep anxiety to a minimum.

thanks lacy

 

[Mr. Bigglesworth]

I have found that any good strong Indica works well for me......no specific strain is necessary. That's for me, though...obviously everyone is different.

Peace, Love and Tie Dye,

I have my card for anxiety attacks and I agree 100% with trainwreck. Keeps me cool and I was taking 2 mils a day of xanax and was on an anti depresant called Lexapro. Just got me a little glass hitter, couple hits and I am fine.

i like any kind of sative for stomach pains. i've always had a variety of health problems and stomach cramps was the most painful. a friend of mine knew about the problems i was having and he knew i had smoked in the past but had quit for a while, anyway he was firing one up and i was hurting so i told him to pass it and wow my cramps were gone in like the 5 minutes it took to creep up on me. needless to say i know how to self medicate indica is great but i get sleepy after i start coming down.

 

[Lacy]

cool.
