Live Stoner Chat BEST STRAIN FOR BI-POLAR AND ANXIETY???

[stepside]

Hi Stepside, I suffer with bi-polar disorder and anxiety, and so does my daughter, ive been able to significantly reduce the amount of "legal" meds I take ,cutting my mood stabiliser and my antipsychotic meds in half and my daughter is currently "legal" med free. I find good sativas really help with low mood (Kali Mist from Serious seeds being one of my faves as well) and a good strong indica for when im manic/cant sleep. Of course NEVER stop legal meds without first consulting your P-doc, the effect of withdrawal from these so called "legal meds" is just awful. Strains that ive found useful are Dutch passion Strawberry Cough, Kali Mist for depression and THSeeds Mk Ultra(for sleep). Im currently trying Dutch passions CBD Skunk/haze and can honestly say it defo delivers a anxiety free buzz, hope this is of some help, keep plugging away, peace HC.

Thanks a lot HC I'm sure it will be of help. I appreciate your input and honesty. I wish you the best as well good luck on your future grows as well

My gf has some pretty serious anxiety at times. We're no experts on strains and never have more than 3 varieties at a time, so it's hard to know just which ones help most. She says so far autoblueberry by Dutch Passion is her favorite, and that the "kinds that make me think crazy" can make it worse, especially when people try talking to her.

So my vague advice would be to try out something with a mellow body buzz to ease physical tension, and allow the mind to relax. Hope you guys find something that helps!

Hi, I'm sure there's going to be lots of discussion here about this but I have family that actually cannot consume cannabis because it has major interactions with the daily anti-psychotics and antidepressants prescribed. When said person just smokes weed without either of those medications the effects are even more severe and pronounced, mix it with 2 other more common legal drugs like alcohol and tobacco and you have quite the situation. I highly suggest when you're dealing with mental health issues, not to turn to cannabis use. I've noticed that there's a large population who "medically" use it for mental health reasons and they're far worse off than if they had not taken anything at all. I do suggest seeing a psychiatrist for some formal diagnosis and daily medication.

Of course everyone's different so I cannot tell if this is an option for you but do take care when dealing with such issues. Weed's cool and all but if it's making your quality of life worse then that's not cool.
Please take care of yourself.

I advise anybody with mental illness etc, look into cbd autoflowering strains....

Regardless what experiences you have had and what you think about cannabis.
