Anti Anxiety Strains

Croissant

I disagree with solidopc.... some strains have been as effective as benzos IME....

certain phenos of Yumboldt and Blueberry melt anxiety away as if its one of the main effects. Yumboldt IMO should be renamed to feel good medicine... both strains have a very positive effect that is both relaxing/calming and anti anxiety that are very centering and zen like.

Blue crosses constantly work the best. There is a terpene/ cannabinoid structure that relieves anxiety. The terpenes in blue strains are the same ones in lavender which has been used to relax people for thousands of years... So, I think blue crosses (ie Blueberry Trainwreck) and if you are lucky enough to get that Colorado blueberry, are your best bet as an actually medication.

However, I have found that the reason so many people like chemdawg/og kushes is that these strains get you real high without inducing paranoia. But, this is different than relieving anxiety.

Because Dj Short bred Blueberry, most of his strains have that similar cannabinoid structure that induce a very calm high.

Any pure sativa. I had the same issues, until I discovered sativas. Many people will tell you sativas will make you paranoid, but the pure sativas, (mostly old world) are extremely relaxing, motivating, inspirational, and clear headed. Really allow you to open your mind and see things in a better light. I know there are a few breeders still working with these old world genetics

could you please be more specific?
these kinds of statements are like sending someone off on a quest for the grail.

which strains in particular?

From which regions did the Pure sativas originate in land race form?

are these pure sativas from landrace stock or from western selections of landrace stock?

Are these pure sativas hybradised with westernized sativas or other landrace sativas or hybrids?

I agree with Epiphyte in that many people confuse strains that are not prone to induce paranioa with anti-anxiety which are not always one in the same.

Also there are apparently multiple versions of strawberry cough so unless you get the correct version of one of several different clone only cutting labeled as strawberry cough it may not be the antianxiety strain it has been claimed to be.

Also all but one experience with a blue cross have not been as anti-anxiety as pure blueberry in my experience.
 
:bump:

Anyone else have any input or suggestions?

No clone only strains, only those found in seed form please.

I hope to place an order for a couple of new strains in the next week or two

Tried vaping? Vaping never gives me any anxiety symptoms, i occasionally get symptoms if i go hard on a bong or something heavy. Also i find hash alot more calming than buds.
 
Haven't tried vaping yet... I should though for the health benefits alone. I would only buy a top notch vaporizor though and am not in a position to spend $400 yet!!

So far for my next order I am going to get a Mandala strain, maybe 2.. can't beat the price. I'd love to try some of DJ Shorts Blueberry but a bit out of my price range. Still looking for one or 2 more strains to add to my order to get a nice selection going!

i'd say look into DIY vaporizers, i built the halogen vaporizer, results have eliminated any urge to buy a commercial one

in the future it would be nice to see breeders, test thier cannabis stains and list
the % of thc to cbd ratios listed along with discrepitions, sort of the standerd
testing on cannabis like at the med, clubs, in this case knowlage is power,
instead of someones word, we all different it all seems subjective
SAY NO TO BIG PHARAMA !!! FUCK THE PILLS !!! AND KNOW YOURE CANNABIS!!!
i know people need thier meds, cannabis or pills and sometimes both,
i think if people were more knowlageable with the cannabis thier useing
it would save a lot of trouble and be a whole lot happier :ying:
i have never tried grown or smoked it, although if i were you i would
buy DGS GRAPE SOBET ... for youre anxiety and depression, from
what i have read and know it should be good for you if not heavenly, please know you and youre cannabis the last thing
we want is chaseing a clean up on isle 13 coffee beans and OG all
over :wave:

to solidopc.

Modern day medication are neuroleptics, addictive, can causes tardive diskinesia and cost money.

Which means they just reduce brain function, you will become dependent on them physically and mentally, you may have uncontrollable movements develop and stay with you permanently and the co-pay for medication? I'd rather not pay anything for my medication.

It's an anti-depressant and anti-anxiety for me!

I am different, I take benzodiazapines at toxic levels and start forgetting my birthday AND THEY only take away the physical symptoms. Let me repeat I had forgotten my birthday and was probably "special" at those levels.

The only anti-anxiety medication that ever worked was injected into me.

The gangj relaxes my personality and therefore and anxiety or paranoia it's causing me is blocked by my philosophy of life. Live the way you want. Don't shave, wear weird clothes, say weird things..be yourself. I STILL have friends, because theyre FRIENDS.

Now getting high in front of judgmental pieces of shit, weed may make you aware of that bullshit.
 
an inexperienced user can feel more self aware being overwhelming in itself but also depending on the individuals physiological responses(mostly conditioned by other involvements)the increased amount of sentry input,sight, sound,taste,temporal,will cause one to be disoriented and overly self conscious
uncertainty troubles most every personality

cannatonic resin seeds is a 1:1 cbd thc strain. 7 thc and 7 cbd.
it's a good medical strain that relax you still let you funcioning ..
at mr nice they they experiment to get the highest cbd strain pollinating the cannatonic with a mr nice afgan skunk.
anyway my way to solve the anxiety problem with marijuana is just to give one hit every 10 minute in order to get high very slowly .if you use a vaporizator it works even better
sorry about my english

Someone said any pure old world Sativa and that would be a huge mistake. There are some, especially Vietnamese that will make you feel like you are having a heart attack and some Africans will do that too. There are some beautiful pure Sativas that will take of all negativity for you but those are very rare now.

Cherry Cake if you can find it will take care of anxiety, depression and is also an amazing PTSD killer! noodles tried some, tried to go to the dark side just to test it but he was all smiles. Very clear, smooth and still exceptionally potent. Sadly the last of them were confiscated from the now defunct auction site that they were at but some people did manage to get some.

Good luck on your search!
