Anyone else figure out that weed/gummies make anxiety worse?

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

I just had a lightbulb moment. I was taking Delta 9, and THC-O for months. Then, weed was legalized in my state, and I got the real THC, and went through 20 of those in a week. I took the last one on Sunday night. I’ve been off gummies for the entire week, and my anxiety has been much better. I was taking 2 a day, thinking they were helping, but it made the anxiety worse. I had a little vodka yesterday, and it crept back up again. It wasn’t even difficult to stop. I just ran out, and didn’t buy more. I got my appetite back too. I was getting too skinny, and discovered they suppress your appetite.

I think I’m going to live the sober life.

Yeah you really have to be careful which strains you smoking if you have anxiety. Some definitely will make it worse. Stay the fukk away from sativas and try to stick with Indicas.

yes that is why weed (THC) should be banned - not available for general purchase.

You need to learn how to self soothe before you start with using any mind altering substance. If you can't bring yourself back sober, it's no way you can in a compromised state. Start meditating, doing breathing excercises, and if you can afford it go see a therapist.

Did that shyt in Amsterdam never again, was cool for like 10 mins and then reality hit hard. all I remember was my anxiety through roof, throwing up Doritos, brushing my teeth then going to bed.

I’ll stick to getting high off life and beer.

It's the sativa. One of the reasons it's best to know what you are smoking. I research strains before purchase to make sure I can fukk with it

Look into L-Theanine instead if you're looking for a way to assist your system relaxing. Also consider learning how to breathe much, much deeper and slower than you currently are because I can tell you're a chest breather. That contributes hugely to creating anxiety but it also exists due to the same so its a loop you've got to break.

From what I’m reading, this also decreases appetite. A lot of supplements suppress your appetite, and I can’t afford to lose any weight.

Weed in general makes anxiety increase

False

Research the terpenes

Terpenes content is more important than THC content..most edibles have 0 terps

Myrcene
Carophyllene

2 most important for anxiety relief.. here In NV all weed products have terpene content

THC won't help with your anxiety. Maybe you should be taking controlled amounts of high CBD edibles/tablets.

 

[darealvelle]

Smoke CBD instead. Weed does the same thing to me and makes me super paranoid.

Yes, people miss this part. If you go to a dispensary or even their website they will breakdown the terpenes inside each strain, the percentages, and what benefits each strain provides. There’s a science to cannabis now. Everyone should ask as many questions before consuming.
