I know ive posted this before and im sorry, but this stresses me to much. I have anxiety and its hard for me to hold still i also have add and adhd so im always on the go and my mind is aways thinking. Ive smoked mj in my past and ive had a bad experance with it my heart started to race and the cottonmouth kicked in and my legs go really week, i took a hit out of my friends bong and that was it for me. I thought i was going to die i went to the hospitle but i was alright i guess it was only an anxiety attack not sure.. not sure if i was not used to the feeling of mj. But now that i have my card im almost afrade to try it again because eveytime i smoke or try and smoke i think im going to freak out again. Is a racy heart normal from smoking? even if the mmj is a indica? i dont mess with satavis because im not looking for a soring mind effect i want a body relax something i can go to sleep on. I herd maybe that i want something with a higher cbd level then thc wich is an indica. I do have the gdp but picture a cookie crumb sized peace thats what i smoke to start off with, and sometimes my toung will get a lil numb and then sometimes it feels like i dont want to think or talk.. this sucks because there are older people out there im talkin like 70's that can smoke a joint and be ok... its just stress full because i rather take mmj for pain then any other medication. if anyone has any type of information or tips or anything please let me know. My choise of smoking are a vape, bubbler, bong, small pipe, and papers. Thanks please let me know

p.s what are the effects because iknow eveyone is different but... what are some of the effects i should feel.

My mom gets the same reaction with almost all pot regardless of variety. She did find one strain at a club not on WT called Passion Haze and she says it's the only weed she can smoke without freaking out.

As someone with anxiety myself, I would recommend seeing a dr to prescribe some other medication as well.

As I always say, I'm not a doctor, but I've noticed your posts over the past few weeks. If you've been suffering for a long time, I have to agree with the poster above. It's time to get some help. Maybe you already are, and I know how hard it is to talk to a doctor about MJ. I don't tell mine anything about it. I wish I could, but I don't know what his reaction would be, since I hardly ever see him (Kaiser).
There is no magic strain, although it's true they are different and some strains help certain patients more than others. However, they aren't too very different. They're all MJ. When I was a teenager, I had to take about a 20 year hiatus from smoking MJ because it was giving me anxiety so bad. Now that I'm older, it's just like a miracle drug for me. Also, the medical MJ now is far superior to most of the MJ I smoked as a teen.
I know I've mentioned this to you before, but it could be that medical MJ, if it is a problem for you and not helping you, may not be the medication you need right now. I can't tell you how many different types of anxiety meds I've tried over the years that did nothing for me, so I had to move on. If something just isn't working for you, eventually you might have to conclude that it's time to look for a new med.

Good luck, and I hope your anxiety ends soon.

Some people just can't abide Cannabis.
Not saying this is your situation, but anxiety of this level, coupled with ADD, ADHD must be a bitch to deal with.

As others have and I will, I suggest seeing a MD for this problem.

A significant amount of people that I have smoked with in my life have told me that MMJ gives them anxiety and paranoia among other side effects.

See your doctor and be honest with him/her and see what hey say?

Good luck

i agree with the rest of the previouse posts. if mj makes you anxious and gets your heart racing and you suffer from anxiety and more then thier right maybe you tell your dr about your symptoms and see if he will put you on a low dose of pharmacueticls. sometimes medications are the only thing that offer sanity. i have chronic mental illness and that is what i have concluded. but that deosnt mean mj has to go out the door. maybe you just have to complement a regular pharmacueticl medication schedule with mj. if you have severe anxiety than i think any mj could be bad. but if your taking anti anxiety pills and the anxiety isnt so bad than why not light up a bowl. i'm not a professional just a person who has had similar experiences.:thumbup1:

I fail to understand what's so hard to understand.
MMJ obviously isn't werking for you. There more than likely isn't a miracle strain that won't give you anxiety and paranoia. Yes, a crop with more CBD VS THC is more likely to reduce the anxiety you may feel, but ulitimately there's no way of testing the CBD levels and you'll always be left guessing if this batch of medicine is going to make you paranoid. Your heart rate will always slightly increase when you smoke, but if your heart starts pounding outside your chest then you have a problem. Only you know when it's a problem.

You keep asking what your supposed to feel, and like I mentioned in my other post which I guess you ignored because it wasn't the answer you wanted to hear, everyone feels different things when medicating with Cannabis. You mentioned that you feel weak legs, major paranoia, racey heart...I've never felt anything of these things, especially to the extreme that you seem to be describing. Usually after one toke I feel a lot lighter, like a major weight was lifted off my back, and I become extremely relaxed, my eyes feel a little dry, and if I smoke enough, I'll get a little cottonmouth.

The only advice I can offer is that if your nervous before smoking, then you'll definetly be nervous and anxious during. Try maybe meditating for a few minutes before you medicate, or just simply take a few deep breathes and try your hardest to relax and not be nervous before you medicate. Medicate with a pipe - you can control your dosages and you won't take rips like you may on a bong. Take a small hit and just breathe deeply. Don't inhale too long, THC passes quickly and holding it too long just simply increases damage to the lungs. Wait several minutes between each toke to make sure you don't over-medicate.

Like someone else mentioned, you should see your doctor and treat your anxiety another way and maybe smoke up every once and a while and use MMJ and an alternative treatment together, but honestly, MMJ doesn't seem to be what your looking for, because it clearly isn't werking. Good luck.

Thank you for your help. See i dont have a dr i can see on a regualr bassics but i want to see one so that i can tell him about it. I rather have a lil hit of canabis to relax me then take a medican like Lorizapam for anxiety. See ive read up alot and it says mmj dose incresse heart rate and its normal. But see i dont have anxiety on a daily bassis its only when i smoke my heart starts ti beat a bit quicker and i notie it and thats when i have anxiety.

ive been reading your posts for a while now man and it sounds like you need to stay away from cannabis. cannabis doesnt have the same reaction for every single person, some people are even allergic to it. just like anything else.

and if cannabis is giving you the anxiety then smoking cannabis to get rid of cannabis induced anxiety makes no sense.

I agree that I think most people on WT would want to take a hit of cannabis to relieve anxiety then to take any other meds prescribed by a dr, but when taking a hit of cannabis makes the anxiety worse, then you should seek alternative options

What you describe to me is that your anxiety disorder is the problem and not the Cannabis.. If you are healthy, have no heart problems and have a Doctors recommendation for Cannabis? You are fine to use it but you have to explore the many stains that you can get regularly. Take small doses and work up..
Inhalation is the proper delivery for Stress and anxiety...
Stay away from Sativa strains and hybrids... Always go with Master, Platinum, or OG Kushs....
These will also help when anxiety screws up your apatite.
I tell you this because I too suffer from a very serious anxiety disorder too. I had a Very bad Ulcer a few years ago and ended up on several types of anti anxiety drugs. But the Cannabis blow them away for effectiveness....
MMJ is life saving for me.... Helps me cope and function every day...
