    Default Any other high anxiety/paranoid smokers out there? What strains do you recommend?

    Quit smoking 20 years ago because I started getting paranoid out of nowhere, dipping my feet back into it slowly. Looking for recommendations on good strains that wont promote anxiety, and that might help alleviate stress. From what Ive read it seems that indicas are what i should look for, my current grow trends heavily towards them. Would like some sativas that wont have me heading for the hospital. Current grow has Ayahuasca Purple, Blueberry, Gelato Blue, and Bruce Banner. Next grow im looking at Blue Cheese, Gorilla Glue, and Zkittles. Let me know what I should add or maybe consider swapping out. I also have ADHD if that matters, would like to keep that in check without going back on meds. Thanks guys!

    I got back into regular smoking after the doc gave me sertraline for anxiety. I lasted 4 days on that shit and had the worst 4 days of my life. That stuff is powerful yet they hand it out like candy. Some strains are an absolute no for me due to paranoia and anxiety but I have found a couple that really help when I need them. Snowryder auto from short stuff works for me and I always make sure I have some around. Tangerine Dream auto from barney's farm is also pretty good for me and my Mrs but I guess everyone is different so your milage may vary.

    I've recently been doing some research into cbd heavy strains and found a couple that look promising. My next grows will be purple kush from seedsman which is 1:1 cbd/thc and from the reviews I've found looks to be good for anxiety with no paranoia. I'm also going to try cbd blackberry kush from dutch passion which is 30:1 cbd for a daytime workday smoke.

    This is why I grow my own. You know exactly what you're going to get with no nasty surprises. Good luck.

    You paranoia might be the weed you are smoking. If its chopped to early the thrichomes are clear and that can create anxiety whatever the strain

    A good indica or a hybrid 50/50is nice. Look up the ultimate from dutch passion.

    They put me on the same shit. It actually worked fairly well for me but I gained nearly 20 lbs in a little over 3 weeks, also slept all the time. Im not about changing one problem for another. Will check out Tangerine Dream, have 2 strains going right now from Barneys and am a big fan, thanks.

    I was prescribed sertraline a few years ago and it was tremendous. About 3 weeks after I started taking them, I had a follow up with the doc and he asked how I was.

    “I feel alive! I’m buzzing with energy and everything is wonderful!”

    “Ah, I see.”

    And then the fucker halved my dosage.

    I don’t take them now but I do take amber-trich weed which is about as close to natural Valium as I can get. Stops the ol’ over-thinking nicely.

    I've been on a whole range of their drugs, the only ones that worked for me were the ones you can't take for prolonged periods of time. So I stick to my plant, does everything the pharmaceuticals do with less side effects. Hope you find a nice strain

    I certainly wanted to sleep all the time. It just turned me into a zombie after the first day and instantly killed my love life. Sod that lol, never again. I'll stick with weed

    The Tangerine Dream was the stinkiest plant I've grown to date so you might want to check your filter

    My wife has OCD and Im hoping that my grows will help her symptoms as well. Im very surprised about how supportive she is of it. She's never smoked-not once. I have the whole house smelling like a bag of weed, basement has been turned into my science experiment. I think it's because she doesnt want me drinking again, been sober 3 years now and i think she understands that the worst qualities of cannabis are still more beneficial than the best parts of alcohol.
