  1. Not been much of a smoker since I was a teenager in the 90s and I didn't care much for it then besides socially but I'm a recovering opiate and cocaine addict that has honestly been using for self medication for many years I'm now away from the opiates thank God but I'm having trouble finding any medicine besides one I can no longer take due to some liver issues (even with never really drinking ever) and the cocaine is the only thing that is able to slow down the thoughts and I can only take so much of that before I will be suicidal or use I'm willing to try almost anything that's not another hard street drug to get past this because I'm really just so done with all of that life and I'm looking for any real advice on this and please don't just bash me for the path I took because I hate it more than you can ever phathom and guilt eats at me daily already

  2. In my experience Sativas and Indicas both alleviate my symptoms. That said, Indicas tend to sedate me, whereas Sativas don't. So, given that, for me, the only difference is whether or not I'm couch locked, I prefer Sativas.

  3. I find the indica relaxes my body but not my mind? Like my eyes dont want to stay open but my brain is running the same as always.
    Tried a stiva based edible and started getting paranoid that if I fell asleep I would never wake up.

  4. Just tell them try a little bit of everything. That way you can get them out of the store without having to “ shoot the shit” to much. Remember to say “ have a great day “

  5. Sativa do make my mind race and can give me anxiety which is why I get energized because I need to move to calm the mind down but truly I love working out on sativa, specifally cardio. The racing thoughts, anxiety make me want to move. Lol

  6. The budtender talking about indica and sativa shows he really doesn't fully know cannabis

    A budtender is the last person I would ask and a dispensary is the last place I would go to buy flower

  7. Unfortunately at the dispensary i go to the security makes you order online before you can enter. Meanwhile, the knowledgeable staff are inside the building! The security doesn’t really know much as far as the products

  8. ALSO, I'm super high strung and Acapulco Gold is my favorite strain ever and that's a very heavy sativa leaning plant. I honestly don't buy this energizing shit. Has anyone really ever been energized by weed? Smoke too much and you get a headrush maybe, especially off acapulco gold in my experience, but energizing? I just feel calm and groovy after the come up and I can finally play guitar like I'm not some skinny awkward white guy. Maybe even record a half decent bass line. My point is, I would never be suggested a sativa like acapulco gold, because they're supposedly not good for people with anxiety. However, it makes me feel really mellow and I'm like generalized anxiety disorder poster boy. I was fucking agoraphobic and developed an alcohol problem because I was self medicating my anxiety. Anyway sorry for the paragraph. Let's all thank screech from saved by the bell for this lovely video and RIP buddy.

  9. "Do you wanna feel awake? Do you want it to put you out and slow your thoughts? Do you wanna feel like the owner of a used car dealership? Do you wanna go to sleep? Do you wanna feel like you just got an email from turbotax saying your score went down?"

  10. "For example, my mother in law. She had some stuff that was high in cbd. So she had help with the racing thoughts, but then I was yelling at her about where the fuck my sandwich was and then she was struggling with the thoughts that she did have."
