My advise would be to stay away from sativas and go for the indicas. I used to have the same problem. I fixed it by going very slowly. Couple of hits see what happens then if ok take another one until right where you want to be. Peace

same thing happens to me all the time i could be smoken some fire ass dro and the anxiety gets to me i mean i normally have anxiety anyways but it seems to get worse it all started when i quit weed for like 3months i used to be a pro before that smoke a good ounce and a half and be dandy but after i quit i went over the edge so i grow but i dont smoke

I get massive paranoia... The last time i smoked weed was with my friend he had a blueberry strain. I took 3 small hits off his joint and was sent to hell...
I was running down the street screaming, I honestly thought i went insane. People where out to get me, aliens and the government wanted to silence me. It was not fun
90% of the time i smoke and get anxiety and paranoid. I have a very small tolerance. it takes 1 hit to get me super baked, eyes cherry and really sleepy. I guess you just need to find your comfort zone... took me a while

I agree with those who tell you to try indica. It gives a much more body stone making your body relax. While the Sativa will give you a very uplifting sometimes euphoric feeling - and sometimes anxiety and paranoia. I keep both kinds of plants (for sativa i have some Jack Herer phenos that i love - for indica i have Grand Daddy Purple and Black Domina).
Maybe you know this already - just didn't see it explained.

ak 47 or mental floss kill anxiety...

I get anxiety from Sativas so now I smoke only Indicas and I get no anxiety at all.
For me, Indicas is the way to go for no anxiety. Indica is just a flat out stone.

white widow, great for anxiety. Oh right, I suppose the 4 mg xans I took help .

Ok so deffintly indica, what about Blue Mystic? They say its Predominantly Sativa but list the effects on Nirvana as Stoned, body buzz, relaxing.

Edit: If you look on Nirvana and click on Blue Mystic when it is listed under regular seeds it says Predominantly Sativa. When you look under femenized seeds it lists it as Predominantly Indica. Which is it??

it certainly not obtained stress and panic from cigarette smoking ganja just genuinely relaxed me

For those with REAL anxiety disorders, DO NOT LISTEN to the people claiming White Widow is good for anxiety. It is not at all. As a matter of fact WW has been the worse panic attack prone weed I have ever smoked. I would strongly suggest being careful with WW if you have any anxiety/panic disorders.

Of course what's good for one may not be for another. Just ease into her if you are going to...

Sativa gives me anxiety. Indica FTW.

I have yet to find one that doesn't come with a little anxiety... Indicas aren't as bad though. Even sativas are ok. I think it has more to do with the ripeness of the buds then the strain. Anything with a lot of amber is better than cloudy/milky for anxiety.

Yeah i was gonna let my trichs go as amber as possible

i have taken this to the extreme in 1 case, completely ambered
i revegged a plant after 12 weeks of flower with more bud than i needed(1st reveg)
so the bud could have 18 weeks flowered, a long time
i checked it out with a magnifier, and nothing but amber
and that was sleepy weed, no anxiety what so ever, but only good for sleep

According to what I've been reading up on for myself - 80% Indica 20% Sativa mix works well for me -- Seems to be well balanced - Takes care of my pains, relieves my stress and yet I can still function and be productive.
