Anyone think that the reason everyone has anxiety here, much more than normal, is because of weed? I think weed causes anxiety, especially in social situations, which leads to anxiety disorders.




When I first started smoking I seemed to experience no negative side effects. I've now been smoking for around 3-4 years, primarily on weekends but I've had 1-2 week long binges, smoked an entire oz with my cousin in three days this past summer.

It's not how I feel when I'm high but how I feel when I'm not high. For some reason, I have become increasingly anxious in social situations. I have no clue where these feelings arose from but I'm starting to believe that the bud is exacerbating a predisposed anxiety disorder I already had. I'm not pulling this out of my ass, anxiety runs in many many of my family members. Some of them do no drugs whatsoever and their anxiety is considerably worse than mine.

Starting this upcoming Jan, I plan to quit smoking for 2 months, possibly more. If the anxiety I experience socially diminishes, I will probably begin to limit my smoking to only 2 times a month if that.

I plan on replacing my occasional weed use with kratom as I enjoy a release on the weekends and really can't stand alcohol. This thread will definitely not be active in 3 months to come but I will most likely report back if I find any improvement.

weed exaggerates my DP/DR so bad that i cant smoke it anymore

Actually, it doesnt bother me WHILE im high, its kind of cool. I would smoke weed, but the DP/DR sticks around a few weeks after i come off my high...

I think a lot of younger users are in denial about cannabis's effect on their anxiety and I've noticed this trend on here for years (long time lurker). That being said there are plenty of folks who's anxiety is reduced greatly by smoking. Sometimes weed reduces my anxiety, sometimes (in certain situations) in can make me prone to panic attacks. Not everything is black white, know what I mean jellybean?

On the subject of CBD, I purchased and grew a clone from a reputable cannabis club called Harlequin, whitch supposedly had considerably high levels of CBD and little to no THC. The final product sucked quite frankly. Maybe if I took the time to make a concentrate my opinion might be different but Ill take a nice skunky indica over that shit any day if im looking for a relaxing, anxiety reducing body high.

Agreed. Weed affects everyone differently, just like any other drug.

I know many people who hate smoking because it makes them very anxious, but I also know many, including myself, who feel more socially lubricated when slightly high--not red-eyed blazed, but a bit uplifted. I also think that, like any other drug that affects humans--which all have internal analogues that regulate mental and bodily functions--there are some people who have a natural deficiency in them. Just as some people need SSRIs to increase free serotonin levels in their brains to bring them back to a baseline, depression-free lifestyle, some people may have a low endocannabinoid function. I may be one of those people. I generally suffer from a lack of appetite, anxiety, and depression. I've dealt with these my whole life, long before ever smoking marijuana. Some days, I'm active all day and forget to eat until 8PM because I just don't neurologically register hunger as some people do. I've thought daily about suicide since I recognized my own mortality at about the age of thirteen. To be clear, I no longer smoke marijuana (I may again some day in the future), but I can tell you that it definitely did not make me more anxious. My ex-girlfriend, however, would nearly have panic attacks every time she smoked. I've had other friends that had the same reaction. I have never had that reaction.

As for CBD, I don't think it has many psychoactive effects at all. I think the whole thing about body buzz/head buzz that people attribute to CBD is kind of bullshit. There's many other cannabinoids in THC that could be responsible for the 'body buzz'. For instance, when I vaporized cannabis, I'd usually get a 'head high' and I'd save the scraps and make edibles. The edibles almost always had much more of a stoned, body high than anything I've inhaled. I think that the cannabinoids that vaporize at higher temperatures are more responsible for the 'body buzz' and the lower vapor temperature ones are more responsible for the 'head high.'

It took me over a year to feel normal socially/motivationally again after stopping daily use
never had social anxiety before doing weed, only mild social anxiety like most people have, but I enjoyed being social with others and lived with lots of neighbors for many years(dormitory)
mushrooms seems to help social anxiety though... as does LSD
next day no worries, and it lasts

at least for me.. weed always makes me socially anxious in any situation almost
but it seems dose related, and especially skunk seems to do it
I always ended up taking too many puffs

I would imagine pot to not be as bad with this...

All you socially anxious smokers, I suggest trying out kratom.

It will give you energy, relax you, make you feel warm and cuddly, happy, and productive. I prefer the high of kratom to weed.

Also etizolam is good to combine with weed to prevent the side effects most of you are describing.

As someone no longer smoking weed, I find that etizolam is a great substitute. I used weed to help with social anxiety and after trying benzos find they they work just as well, and etizolam gives me the munchies, too. It doesn't make me especially less depressed like cannabis does, though.

Salvia works great too

relaxing,improves mood, notice beauty, gives intense dreams, sometimes good overview of problems/thoughts - you just know what you must do after you have smoked it often

and it is non-addictive, you dont feel like smoking it again and again

it can be chewed for meditation, and grown as a houseplant, so you can actually get high from just watching your plant grow
without even needing to chew or smoke it :-)

I like salvia much better than weed, wouldnt even consider smoking weed
but salvia I like maybe 1-2 times a year max, and it is a really beautiful houseplant

Very mildly, the smoke was thick and harsh and did not taste good. If you could could manage to smoke enough if could be enjoyable. Definitely should have made a concentrate, oh well.

I find salvia to be incredibly dysphoric. I've smoked both natural leaf and extract and have never had a remotely good experience. I can see why it's legal in most states, because after what I've seen, who would ever want to touch that stuff?

For people who do experience anxiety or paranoia from marijuana I think yes that's a very possible scenario. The MAJORITY of people I see who smoke weed Do not have ANY problems with anxiety or paranoia.

To prove my point, I had SEVERE anxiety that had me taking 15mg of Xanax a day and when I started medical marijuana that year, instead I started to only need 4mg of Xanax. Medical marijuana has and continually helped me with my anxiety, I.B.S and ADHD.

Experiences are supremely subjective
