Cannabis Support for Anxiety – A Words Worth

I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a products of my decisions. –

Stephen Covey

CANNABIS CAN DEFINATELY REDUCE ANXIETY for some people. There is no doubt that people often feel profoundly relaxed in both mind and body after consuming cannabis. CBD-dominant strains tend to reduce levels of anxiety as they act on serotonin receptors. However, for some, THC could decrease anxiety as it produces psychoactive effects that relieve people’s stress and improve anxiety.

Super Strains for Anxiety

If you are experiencing feelings of “STIR-CRAZY” as a result of social distancing or self-quarantine in the wake of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, you may be feeling additional stress beyond that which stems from simply being isolated. In particular, an unwelcomed state or sense of ANXIETY.

1) White Widow (Sativa Dominant Hybrid)

White Widow is a sativa dominant hybrid. With a THC content of between 18% and 25%, novices should opt for a less potent herb. Its minimal CBD level of 0.2% does nothing to counteract the effects. It promotes a full-bodied, ‘spacey’ high, which makes it a popular choice for patients with anxiety or PTSD. Users say White Widow provides the perfect blend of euphoria and stimulation and often take it to relieve mood disorders.

2) Sour OG (Hybrid Strain)

Sour OG is a mellow and relaxing strain that may help with stress and anxiety. It is an excellent choice for anxiety relief thanks to its conservative THC levels of 13-17%. As a result, it is less likely to cause side effects than other more potent strains. It is a balanced hybrid that’s a cross of OG Kush and Sour Diesel.

3) Cherry Pie (Indica Dominant Hybrid)

This Indica dominant marijuana strain promotes a creative high with a clear mind. It is a cross of Durban Poison and Granddaddy Purple. With two legendary parents, you may expect a lot from Cherry Pie, and it doesn’t disappoint. Its THC level ranges significantly depending on the cut. You can get Cherry Pie with anywhere from 13% to 23% THC.

4) Granddaddy Purple (Indica Dominant Hybrid)

Better known as GDP, Granddaddy Purple is a cross of Big Bud and Purple Urkle. The California native is wildly popular amongst those who need a useful stress-buster after a hard day. This Indica dominant hybrid delivers potent psychoactive effects with cerebral euphoria and physical relaxation. With a THC content of around 23%, this is not a strain for newbies. However, if you are looking for full-body relaxation and a powerful high, it could be the right choice for you.

There are more ways than just “CONSUMING” cannabis that will aid to combat the anxiety you may be feeling, however, CANNABIS CAN ALSO BE AN AMAZING COMPLIMENT TO THOSE STRATEGIES in a variety of ways. Consider tincture laden muscle wraps, infused bath soaks, topical oils for an infused massage…etc.

Anxiety Symptoms Treated With Medical Cannabis

In addition to relieving the feelings of unease associated with anxiety, cannabis medicine can address the following anxiety symptoms:

• Insomnia: Certain strains of cannabis have relaxing, sleep-inducing properties that help you get to sleep.
• Fatigue: Other kinds of cannabis have an energizing effect that counteracts fatigue.
• Concentration difficulties: Specific strains and formulas can also help you pay attention when you deal with focus issues.
