I have pretty bad anxiety I've tried benzos and several other medications. Benzos are too addictive. Even if I use a very small amount now I feel withdraw symptoms for several days after. 

Im interested in trying canabis. I've read indica is good for anxiety. Any one have good info on what type of indica strains work for them?

 
I hope you get some advice from our members, but when it comes to cannabis and kratom the vendors are usually pretty helpful with advice on the properties of various strains so don't be shy to ask for recommendations.

@Merryjanemedhelp any pointers?

 
@spiro   I agree with @2earls  most vendors are very helpful and can tell you what indic@ strains they have in stock that are best for anxiety.  I will say that you do want a indic@ though because $ativas will usually make chronic anxiety worse.   

Another idea you may want to look into is Pure CBD in a vape pen or a bottle w/ a dropper (you can just take a few drops under your tongue or smoke using a vape pen)  CBD will not give you a buzz but works wonders for Anxiety and Pain but if you want the Buzz you could also look into a 50/50 THC/CBD mix.  

Hope this helps and have a good day!

Great post I can't wait to try some of the vendors. I work out everyday I always have chronic inflammation and pain herniated disks. I've read CBD is good for that. 

 
@spiro, I completely understand the things you are going through. I am Ex-Military and I work out everyday but I also deal with a ton of Chronic pain as well as PTSD and the anxiety that goes with that!

So I use CBD a lot, especially before I work out ( because CBD does not demotivate me before the gym like THC would ) and I save the THC products for when my day is over or on the weekends . 

CBD works wonders for pain, anxiety, as well as inflammation (which are all things you mentioned you deal with on a regular basis) so that is why I recommended pure CBD to you but you might also get a lot of use out of some of the topicals as they work really well too!!  They have many different kinds but I like to use some of the oils, CBD infused bath salts and CBD/THC lotion that you can use to rub in on different parts of the body and these work great for the inflammation and pain/painful joints.

In your case though I would say using the topicals as well as Liquid CBD with a Dropper to put under your tongue throughout the day will greatly help with your Inflammation, anxiety and pain and will not demotivate you.

Then use the Indic@ products with THC & CBD at night and on weekends when you have nothing to do because Indic@'s also make some people end up IN-DA-Couch!!  LOL.   Indic@s are Great for all the things you deal with as well though!!  

If you ever need help with anything related to this topic or have any questions just let me know and I will be glad to help you out!!  

Hope This Helps & Have A Great Day Spiro!!!

I have had very bad experiences with marijuana I found that it made me super paranoid and gave me anxiety and I felt like something bad was going to happen, I didn't much care for the high either.   But is it true that the medical stuff doesn't make you paranoid and can help with pain as well?    I could apply to get a medical marijuana licence but I think I need to do a bit more research first.  

 
I've been smoking an indica strain for the last few days if I take more then just one puff I get the anxiety paranoid self doubt negative talk going through my head. I tried a strain from one of the vendors. 

Last night I smoked a tiny piece of bud 2 hits from a bowl. I couldn't even act myself around my wife lol. My body wanted to shake I felt paranoid etc. I'm going to try a few more strains/products. If it doesn't work I guess I'm going to just give it up for good. 

 
@spiro   I am in the same boat as you but I have found that some of the strains that I have ordered have caused little to no anxiety or paranoia.  I will see which ones I ordered and try to offer a little insight as to what may help.  I usually order the mids as opposed to the top shelf and that makes a big difference. It might take a day or two for me to remember but I will try to sort it out.  I am very particular about what I smoke cuz  I hate that feeling you are describing but I really enjoyed the buzz I got from the strains I ordered.  They give me nice bit of energy (surprisingly) and  no anxiety at all.  Now if I can just clear the cobwebs and remember what they were!!

That would be great!!

 
I took .5mg of Xanax yesterday I smoked all day and had no anxiety it was awesome. That would get extremely addictive fast unfortunately.

same here. With medical..you have (more) control on what you get and you can go for more of the indicas(not as much paranoia) dominant strains. Unfortunately, that is no guarantee. As someone posted..one could take a zan or two and smoke and be fine. BUT, that won't end well...addiction(to xans) and all that.

you need to try CBD, with low THC % or just straight CBD...it really relaxes you and doesnt give you that high that THC will do. Indica especially...

If the mods would let me become a vendor, i could easily help you out, as i live in LA, im not new 2 this game and have been doing transfers long b4 the darkweb appeared...and even use 2 buy from some vendors who are no longer even allowed 2 talk about or are blacklisted now...

seriously 2 your question CBD, try the oil or edibles first, then a hybrid with low thc% and higher cbd %...

I've been looking for a high CBD low THC strain. The vendors don't seem to carry it because it isn't popular. Let this man be a vendor lol. 

For the last few weeks I've been using heavy Indicas. It's pretty good I still get some anxiety but it's gone after about 45-60 minutes. Only issue I feel so sluggish rest of the day. I still do what I need to but I just feel tired and a little moody depressed. 

Positives I get a nice boost in appetite I enjoy the high a bit and the muscle relaxation I also fall asleep quicker. 

I really want some high CBD flower to roll up.

  1. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  2. P @ psychedpsych: Whew, long night of giving rides. How's y'all's night go? Im debating driving for 2 more rides to hit my goal, should I keep going?
  3. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  4. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  5. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  8. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  9. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  10. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
  11. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Hey @CuCeltic99!
  12. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  13. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  14. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  15. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  16. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  17. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  18. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though
  19. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  20. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
