I can and I will.
Unless you smoke too much, I know plenty of people that find certain strains to be more or less anxiety free (okay maybe at times they might have a touch of it on occasion, but you get the point I'm trying to make).
What I'm trying to say is that some strains are far less likely to produce anxiety for some people than other strains and don't cause anxiety for most of the time for these people. Are you saying you don't agree with this?
I myself in fact have found some strains to not cause anxiety if I moderate my use (don't smoke far too much, which isn't fun anyway) and other people have said the same.
I also think some strains for some people have the potential to treat anxiety and even depressive symptoms.
I'm sorry if you disagree with this but I stand by what I said (or was trying to say).

Selective reading on your end is the culprit here.
I agree that certain strains cause less anxiety than others, but there's not one which isn't able to cause it. Everything with THC in it can cause anxiety, simple as that.

Sorry Blowmonkey. I didn't mean that they were never capable of causing anxiety in anyone. Perhaps I sounded as if was making a generalisation which I definitely didn't mean to do.

I would say every strain of weed would induce anxiety levels higher then if you were sober.
Everything with THC in it will cause anxiety. And what has THC in it? Cannabis..
The reason you get high from weed in the first place is because of the THC. If there wasnt THC in cannabis to begin with you wouldnt feel any effects from the CBD's/CBN's which are known to some to relieve anxiety.
IMO overall if your going to smoke weed, wheather a sativa or indica your going to feel more anxious then if you hadnt smoked.

^ Hiya Wise, you all right?
I just wanted to say that know that isn't true because I and other people have had anxiety relief from some strains. Granted, like I said, it won't be the same with everyone, but some people get relief. I think that is a bit of a simplistic view of the issue.
You said yourself CBD relieves anxiety. There are many other cannabinoids as well that people seem to forget about and you have to remember, taking THC alone is completely different from taking THC with a plethora of other cannabinoids that make up the experience of smoking, eating or vaporising cannabis - THC plays a significant part but it does only contribute one single part of the high. Researchers that have administered pure THC to people have found they can experience severe paranoia and anxiety but that doesn't really tell us much because people take all the other cannabinoids present in cannabis when they smoke/eat/vape it. The other cannabinoids in all likelihood not only negate the anxiogenic effects of THC but overpower its effects, providing anxiolytic relief for some people with some strains. To say that because it contains THC it must cause anxiety to me is like saying opium, because it contains alkaloid opiates like papaverine or thebaine, must cause anxiety but we know that isn't true, since it contains narcotic opiates such as morphine or codeine. Again, my own and other peoples' experiences verify this.
There's no doubt in my mind that some cannabis can not only cause no issues with anxiety with moderate doses but also can relieve pre-existing anxiety present before smoking in some people.
This study suggests there can be some benefit in taking cannabis for anxiety:The British Journal of Psychiatry (2001) 178: 107-115
I've also noticed that many doctors in California are apparently starting to prescribe cannabis for anxiety to many patients as it can often be a more efficacious alternative to other pharmacological treatments and often has the benefit of having fewer serious side effecs than SSRIs or other antidepressants such as sexual disfunction etc.

I agree that today's weed is extremely potent & this 'GREEN CRACK' hash is blast-off city. I was always a diehard old-schooler, but when I tried the weed grown today, I realized how strong the smoke has gotten.
But don't underestimate the old 60s weed...Acapulco Gold, original Thai-Sticks, Panama Red, Michoacan, Oaxacan, Colombian Gold Bud, Santa Marta Red or Gold...those strains were excellent & got us really blasted!!

hey, ive got that page bookmarked
that sounds about perfect, atleast the lineage!
like some mighty AK(which is flawless plant!)...
as far as anxiety, i think its fukin cruel to suggest something like a strong Diesel, which has become a standard suggestion to help with anxiety... i guess because it is supposed to make you feel so out going,,, but man, i grow and smoke all sorts of stuff, including the OGSD, plus i was on an absurd amount of klonopin.
when i was forged with a massive crippling disturbing autoimmune disorder, i was on 6mg klonopin a day, and had been for 2-3 years.
i was growing and smoking BlueMoonRocks, AK, BlueBerry, DutchTreat, & PurpleIce. with the BMR, AK, & early more sativa like BB, i unknowingly dropped 2 mgs of the klonopin in two months, comfortably, all the way down to .5...! over two more years, comfortably,,, the SD, PineappleExpress, most the C99 im growing currently, would always be one hell of a headfuck the first of the day, and do nothing for my medical needs, or inner/situational anxiety, and any social/agoraphobia being harbored would usually be exasperated.
our cannabinoidendocrinesystem, is what causes this psychotic, delusional, paranoid, hyper-reactive, hallucinogenic drug type symptoms.
it goes both ways, if its overstimulated regularly, smoking marijuana will intensify this,,, understimulated, marijuana will correct these symptoms, or help us make sense of them.
for me, a solid 60%sativa, 40%potent indica does it...
so roll me up some of that MeanGreenMartian!
two shots of espresso, a dollop of cream, and a flute of
peligrino!

Some people cannot tolerate weed very well and the idea that it can help anxiety might obviously appear to be quite alient to them. However, some people do indeed get some benefit from some strains it would seem. Exactly how common this is, I don't know however.

its goodness
a friends mom died whom my wife was close with a year or so ago.
my wife, who smoke for many years, until she became overwhelmed with paranoia and intrusive thoughts from it. felt she should "celebrate" her life and smoke a two paper snake-in-the-grass of skunk#1 & a 1/3g of indica rub hash...
it devastated her, i can get, but ride out a mind fuck, but this should of been a melt dooown.
she stayed in bed for 2.5 hours... poor thing.
she and i know, that she cannot tolerate the stuff.
BUT, i also keep CBD2 specific topical meds; alcohol spray(spritzher) a lotion with local hand harvest extracted lavender oil, and handpicked local extract spearmint with epsom salts.
oh boy trust me,,, i cant explain the rib, spine, sacro, knee and on and on pain i wake up, and go to bed with, and my god i can not explain the relief it, the topicals bring.
my wife also lives through chronic pain, and as i started saying, she can not tolerate the affects ingesting it causes. this works wonders, this in particular, heh.
but please people,, there are bible bath mixtures, lotions, rubs, all sorts of effective ways to get the relief available from this plant, with out ever getting a "high"
jus' sayin'

this is veryt rue i think its genetics, because theres somepeople who never get anxious at all from smoking it, adn can smoke so much and so much,
there is a limit to how high you can get, and smoking more then you need will just boost your tolerance, moderation is the key,

I had forgotten about some WW x BB that I have & ground some up last night. Holy shit
!! This put me on my ass!! Very good stuff...
But the most devastating stuff I've had in decades is this hash made from Green Crack [what a name]. I just shave off such a tiny amount & watch it bubble when hitting the pipe. When thru, it almost disappears, as there's hardly any ash from the hash when I cash the stash.
Well, gotta dash...8)

ww x bb sounds like a no lose cross to me.
ive been overwhelmed with nausea since for most the day, and fairly depressed and disturbed. i didn't smoke much of anything, so snipped a some of the (durbanXthai)XC99, which i wasn disappointed with majorly originally.
nausea wasn't an issue so much last year, and it swept me with a bubbly pleasant peaceful sense of clarity. now i can't stop burping, and am curious to see if i get the munches.
pinching a stem on the plant it smells like pine, the buds sharp and fruity, makes you want to keep smoking it...
this 180° review was done with a quick dry, on some more darker and mostly orange haired larger popcorns.
so i can't wait for three colas to finish!!
ive taken two different antacid/nausea meds today also, seems mention worthy.
big time jar appeal also, many colors and jagged shapes.

Did you hear about the GREEN CRACK hash I've been smoking? It's made from some strain of weed called GREEN CRACK. It's GREEN & it just CRACKS me up. 8)
Actually, I just like the name -- GREEN CRACK. It's derived from The Wizard Of Oz's Wicked Witch of the West's ass.
