anti-anxiety strains?

I'm looking for strains that 1) either help current anxiety and 2) are less likely to cause high-induced anxiety.

Are there any particular strains/vendors you'd recommend?

indica's seem to get recommended by many
but some seem to find sativa's useful
i deal with anxiety issues, been looking for the 'one'
only just started, nl#5 is my 1st try, it's pretty good on anxiety, just did a 2nd run with riper bud, hoping for even better

People say indica but I disagree with that whole heartedly. I think thos people don't know what the anxiety issue is when smoking marijuana. Mandala strains are the answer to your question for sure. Satori is one I know to be great for anxiety and also motivation!

some seem to react quite differently, this makes it tough when trying to get a strategy
for me so far, an indica has helped
but i do see a lot of testimonials for mandala's gear

There is no right answer to this question. Everyone's brain is different and everyones anxiety is different. Some people will say pure sativas some will say pure indicas and some will say a good 50/50 mix. Some people may say a certain strain but forget to mention that they harvest it way late/early. Get a wide variety of strains then harvest them at different times.

For me, I like sativas harvested early. My anxiety gets bad if i think I look stoned. And indicas make me look real baked.

Goodluck on your search to find a strain that works well for you. Try to stay away from strains people call racy, i call it speedy weed.

Personally, I've had very positive results with Northern Lights x Blueberry.

Its being offered by several breeders under the following names:

NorthernBerry (Peak Seeds) , Blueberry Jam (Dr. Atomic), Big Blue (BCSC).

I choose a dark, short, stout female with wide leafs and purple stems...

Buds smell like straight up ripe Mango with Rose notes.

If you let her go until amber she will provide the sweetest body high and calming, soothing feeling.

Very, very good strain!

yeah, the individual brain chemistry really seems vary a lot from person to person
i think i've always had depression/anxiety issues, just got progressively worse over time
but back when mexican sativa weed ruled the land, there were some gems that really made me feel much better
but this was maybe 1 out of 10, or even 1 out of 20
the others typically made things worse, so it was not a good crap shoot

and casey jones causes me less anxiety than does a heavy eye-closing indica when in public

I agree everyone is different so it's really about finding what works for you. Mandala is a great place to start though. I doubt Satori will give anyone anxiety. On a side note i HATE racy marijuana!!!! Makes me anxious because my hearts pounding so hard i fell like i'm gonna have a heart attack at a young age!

I do not agree with Satori at all. The more indica pheno is a bit relaxing but the more sativa ones can almost blow the heart out of your chest.
Personally I'm also looking for the most relaxing strain and I'm yet to find it. I'm now growing BOG's strains and hopefully I'll find a plant that acts as a pain killer and stress/anxiety reliever.
Best one I've found so far for those purposes is GHS Big Bang. After all the elites I've tried I always come back to this one.

Strawberry cough and or Strawberry diesel, these two really stand out as having anti anxiety effects. The Strawberry has a really calming clear happy buzz that also give you plenty of punch.

Something with strawberry in it if you can find it would be one good choice

the strawberry cough seems to get mentioned quite a bit on this issue
i've also seen kali mist mentioned more than once
so they're on my long 'to grow' list
