This really has nothing to do with anxiety but take a look at this new study that shows marijuana could be the cure for cancer! Even FOX news is reporting on this one . Chalk UP another score for the medical marijuana community!
Hi. I've had social anxiety for as long as i can remeber, and also some depression. I've tried 4 kinds of pills: Zoloft(twice),paxil,cymbalta, and Remeron. Zoloft was the only one working, but i felt the side effects were to much so i stopped. i'm currently on 15Mg of Remeron. At first i used Marijuana wrecklesly so i could escape, but i din't know the strain of the plants or anything like that, i just smoked till i got super stoned. I remember one time were i smoked a whole gram by myself and had one of the most terryfing experiences of my life...My mouth kept opening and i thought i was going crazy..i also thought i was going to die. I think it was because i smoked while i was on medication..a big no-no. So later on i searched for info on the plant and the different strains, and i found out that i missused and abused this plant. I agree with Silentype in that different strains have different effects on the user. I for example feel happy and energetic with a sativa dominent plant that relieves my anxiety. I Know Marijuana works, at least for me and thats good enough. I started at .10gr and got to .25gr were it worked good. I treat Marijuana like a medicine, with caution and respect. All the propaganda about Marijuana is false..people should learn about stuff by themselves not by somebody else shitfeeding them with lies!!
Ok so I recently had my first "marijuana panic attack" so I can now sympathize with those of you who have experienced them. However, I came to a conclusion on the argument that weed causes panic attacks. Just as I've been saying all through this thread, strain plays a big factor in this. I smoked a different kind of herb a couple days after i had the seemingly marijuana induced panic attack, and felt like I always do.
I should let you all know (if you don't already) that I've been smoking weed for a few years now. Never had any panic attack, just relaxing helpfulness from the sweet sweet ganja. But this intense panic attack reminded me so much of the one I had that landed me in the hospital thinking I was having a heart attack that I just waited it out for an hour or so and it passed on. I can believe that people would never do it again because of this feeling that I had, but I had to test out if it was just the weed. I did and have been enjoying the same relaxing qualities ever since.
Just thought I'd try to put an end to this controversial issue that seems to hamper my ability to spread the wonders that medical marijuana can bring to our socially phobic minds.

S.T. if you don't mind me asking how often do you use MJ? I was using it every day for a while and it seemed to make me less motivated...although MJ is def. my drug of choice, alcohol just makes me stupid..
can't get any now, no contacts..anyone wanna help me lol
Haha sorry but your not gonna find any hookups in this place but yeah I agree with you that herb can make you unmotivated if you use it too often. Moderation is what is needed. Just use it when your feelin down or have some questions you need answers for and you know how marijuana provides that outside of the box type thinking. I smoke only when i feel I have too usually. Sometimes I'm indulge on a boring day or something but mostly its just to relax when I'm tense about something or can't sleep. At least that's what it does for me. Different people have different opinions, and I'm aware.
For Americans:
Think of all the money tied up in the illegal marijuana market. Face it, our country is facing a recession and legalizing marijuana would take all of that illegal money and put it into our stock market. It would be an excellent way to stimulate our economy, since we all know its our country's biggest cash crop . That alone should be enough for congress to just say fuck the fight its not a problem. It will happen soon enough my friends, at least to some extent.
Just thought I'd relay this thread to you guys from another forum explaining just how easy it is for people with anxiety disorders to receive medical marijuana cards in California....
