srry if its already been said but,

bubba kush, or anything thats bubba dominant. the real deal bubba smells very very similarly to coffee.

It's been one of the only things that really curbs my anxiety.

I had some Grand Daddy Purple a while back that didn't seem to cause any problems, but I can't find that anymore so I need some advice. Some strains make it much worse, some don't bother it as much, but hopefully I can find something to balance that won't bother my anxiety, but will still help with crohn's.

I'm open to non-marijuana related treatments as well, cheaper the better

I get anxiety something awful. Xanex works for about 3 days, than makes it worse.
Sativas make it worse. Some Indicas help.
For some reason Blond Hash really does do the trick for me. The darker hash (that looks and tastes like resin) does not work for me. I guess we are all different but that is my 2 cents.

For those interested this whole thing about xanax making anxiety worse is called the Rebound Effect. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebound_effect

Rebound can occur without withdrawal. Care should be used when taking anything for anxiety.

As Morpheus said, "its a symptom."

The cure for anxiety...meditation and being comfortable with yourself. Cannabis won't help your anxiety it will only mask the symptoms which cause it to get worse in the long run. First quit smoking for a bit..visit a couple professionals and make sure they're isn't a bigger underlying condition i.e. bipolar or personality disorders and request a benzodiazepine such as xanax. Now don't use the xanax unless you really need it, drugs really take a toll on the human body and theyre addictive so if you don't use them in a healing sense they'll make you worse off than you were before. Take however much time it requires to find your comfort zone with yourself and other people. You may want to read something insightful Intimacy (by Osho) is a great book for almost everyone if not ask your therapist for suggestions. Work on whatever makes you anxious and after you get rid of anxiety that herb will taste so much better. Its much better to smoke to enhance your creativity..if you smoke just to stay away from your feelings its self destructive. Hope you feel better.

Good point about the Xanax. The reason why it's only working for you for 3 days is probably because you build a tolerance to it that fast, and you are probably using it as your doctor directed . Some folks just take more and more (that was me) so they can feel it. Out of all the benzos, Xanax is one of the shortest lasting so tolerance and addiction happens really fast on that one, and that's how you get addicted to benzos like Xanax.

Personally ,Angst(anxiety) reps a place in mind that's not here/there ,sort of unstable > some prefer indys ,some sattys to get a change of 'space' ; bi-polars in particular ,must be sure to make right choices to avoid an episode >INGRID/*KavaKava = No ANXIETY whatsoever ,just pure narcotic state of mind/body for this patient > that is all

psst* negligible tolerance build

I have had the exact same shortness of breath/anxiety experience. Usually for me it happens late late at night, like 3 AM and I have usually been smoking Sativas all night.

Grape Ape has been the #1 anxiety fighter for me. Look for strains w high CBDs. Also blackberry kush bubble hash has been good too, but that's more of a "shields up, I can't feel anything, let alone anxiety."

My main advice would be don't smoke racy sativas, by yourself, late at night.

Is Pink Kush a pure indica? I found one called Maui that was more relaxing and less anxiety causing but I beleive its a sativa(??). I tend to try and take in small amounts. If I take too much Ill get anxious.

I have had good luck with Sour Diesel. Blueberry for me just made me too numb and increased me anxiety.
