check your local yard and garden centers....they special ordered mine because they don't carry it this time of the year. Shipping cost are usually too expensive to order online.

Weird question sort of, I'm looking for help from someone who knows about anxiety and what weed works for them. I'm talking about real anxiety, not like oh I get edgy and smoke a bowl and chill dude. I'm talking like flip out of your head anxiety, like you want to run but there's nowhere to go.

Im preoccupied with thoughts of death, have been my whole life. I wish I was religious, as I am not really. It would make life a lot easier, and even if I was wrong I'd still have lived a happy life right? I had issues with anxiety and depression when I was a teen and heavy into drugs, then at 20 I just kind of got normal and grew up and moved on!

its been a shitty year I guess, my mom died a few months ago, my grandma died (we weren't close) I've had a falling out with my 2 sisters since my moms death about shit that doesn't even make sense. I've been popping norcos for 2+ years for a bad neck that I keep putting surgery off for. The doctor said I've gone into depression because of my neck and the daily living with pain. It changes a person. He prescribed me Paxil and serax a few months ago that although I filled the scripts I wasn't taking.

where am I going with this rambling eh? Well the anxiety issues started coming back recently. My anxiety is health related and although I've had a recent full panels of blood work, everything is perfect. I'm pre-diabetic and have been for a few years and I'm working on that. I start focusing on weird aches or pains and then my mind just fucking warps me out until ill work myself into a panic attack that I gotta go to the hospital cuz I'm dying!

The last few times I've smoked weed it has actually caused me to have panic attacks. They were pretty indica dom and I'm assuming that maybe since they have a more body stone I start tripping on the body effects? I'm wanting to try a sativa I think but in the back of my head I'm like already setting myself up to freak out.

The norcos have been a big issue for me, I've quit them several times only to start them again. I'm off them currently though. The funny thing is my wife just got an amazing well paying job and things couldn't be looking better, but me being the pessimist I'm expecting something bad to happen. I can only guess that is actually where my anxiety is coming from.

I started taking the serax a couple weeks ago, I ain't gonna lie, they mellow me out and I fall asleep damn quick. I started taking the Paxil yesterday too, which I'm not happy about but my wife talked me into it. Just for the short term she says! I'm feeling like I'm on the edge of sanity and this shit in my head is just snow balling which is also why I agreed to start taking them.

I want to smoke really bad and not take damn pills, but I'm so fucked up right now I don't know. (I'm having norco withdrawals too) I was thinking maybe just take the serax and Paxil till I'm over the norcos? Then start smoking? I feel like I'm losing my fucking mind sometimes. It's a trip after I have an anxiety episode too, I look back on it and its like it wasn't even me, it was some other dude.

Ok I just unleashed a lot of random, not always sensical information on you all. Yeah chakas out there a bit. Anyone been there? Lol I hope so, and hope not at the same time. I guess the short version is, how do I progress with my medicating?

What's the strain you like best currently chaka? I feel for you man, thankfully I've never needed pills although I think I would benefit from anti-depressants for anxiety and seasonal depression. My significant other suffers from daily neck pain from an accident as a teen and her profession aggravates it to a different level every so often. I hate to see her have to take pills to get her through the day but she simply can't function without them. She doesn't like the way they make her feel... Do you try edibles? How do you smoke and what works best for you so far?

For anxiety, I have perhaps the greatest phenotype of AK47 that exists. lol.... Huge crondo colaz and some absolute chill your ass out smoke. The best relaxation and insomnia smoke I've ever had, with the worst cotton mouth ever as well, ha!

I could definitely benefit from that AK47. That's why I like edibles so much, at least most of mine anyway, because they mellow me out and help me sleep. The ones I have right now don't help me with that because they seem to make it take longer to get to sleep.

They numb quite a bit of pain too which helps me at least sleep for 4-5 hours before waking up in pain.

Its a fantastic strain, if you have the time and space be selective with your phenotype. This one was a trade with a friend and out of the 25 or so strains I've grown it grows with the greatest vigor in veg and some of the biggest flowers of them all. One bong toke and my ass is asleep whether I wanted to or not. Its excellent for perpetual because of her vigor and high yields, the trifecta is her punch you in the mouth potency :sleep:The pics of her are in a 7 gallon grown in super soil. I use Roots Organics Buddha Bloom every other watering along with a few other additives now and again.

EDIT - I also should add that her hash has a lovely scent!

Wow! That's an excellent looking plant and those colas are NICE!
Thanks Dez. I wish I could take credit but honestly she does all the work lol. They ALL turn out like that haha. She loves to be cropped all to hell which I love to do and amazingly her branches hold the weight very well.

Chaka sent ya a PM

Shwagbag...That sounds like the perfect strain/pheno for me.

I am and have been on a mission for that type of strain since I started growing over 2 yrs ago.
I have been through like 25 strains so far, and some are close to what I want, and I have more new strains in the works...actually I have some Herijuana beans soaking right now and some Stank Ape as well. Ill find my magic strain one day too.

I think a lot of people have different interpretations of anxiety. Some think having a bad day at work or a shitty week and need to chil and relax is anxiety. Then there is real anxiety that causes panic attacks, thinking your going to die kind of anxiety. I don't believe any strain of cannabis can effectively treat anxiety triggered panic, although some can definitely make it worse.

I've tried a shit ton of strains.. most of them cause anxiety, even the indicas. A lot of it is mental too though.

i find a lot of strains can put me on edge like that stumpjumper, i tell myself it's 50/50 and borrowed some cognitive behavioral techniques to deal with strains that send me a bit para.

elastic band on the wrist is great for taking the mind off just about anything. stopping smoking i found it great for. then stopping the onset of paranoia.
brief but intense physical activity/exertion works quite well too.

i find livers/blues is the best weed i can smoke it ll he time without the fear. i's uk clone only though :( those bb guys have some crosses that it features highly in. ;)

hope you find something that works man.
