Medibles for anxiety/depression

cannabis can amplify what you are feeling and make it seem more intense, it can move you to a different perspective but you still need to be willing to experience a different perspective. could be strain as well, I've tried a few strains that made my whole body hurt from the force of the strain

 

I'm sorry that made you feel so bad.
If you are normally fine smoking, I think it was most likely the edible and/or strain used to make it. I'm always really careful with those because I can't control them, it's really difficult to know exactly how strong they are.
 
I struggle with OCD, anxiety, depression, ADHD, pain, extreme stress, and a few more things. I find that smoking usually really helps, I just watch how much I smoke. Most things I roll are tiny and I take breaks before packing a second bowl.
 
I'm glad being sober now is making you feel amazing. If you start to feel not so great anymore and weed has helped you in the past, I suggest not dismissing it completely because of this bad experience. If you smoke again, it'd probably be best to really take it slow and monitor how you are feeling.
 
Also, I can't help myself, I have to also suggest art, hahah. Creating art saved me, I love it. I encourage everyone to try it. You don't have to "know how to" or be "good" - messy can be beautiful, especially after you've smoked!
I mostly stick with abstract drawing, I usually start with a squiggle and add details from there. I also do other types of art. I haven't painted in a while, but watercolors have really helped me in the past, you can use the colors & force of the brush to let out emotions.
Another thing that helps me is to write something and transform it into something else. If I figure out how to attach a photo here, I'll do that in a bit.

 

I'm not completely sure how to correct that.. "Lady" or "Ma'am" is way too old for me... how about just meisabelep or bel?
 
I took a risk by creating an album, I hope people only share the drawings for good reasons and don't claim credit. And maybe say they got the idea from meisabelep, the hopeful future artist with the initials NLP -- Someday I'll reveal myself publicly as meisabelep.
 
Anyway, this was rushed, I drew for about 20 minutes. I was actually angry so it helped me. With feelings like anger, I really just let it all out, make it messy, and try to transform it into something beautiful. After I've let a lot of the anger out, I usually go back and make the edges more smooth, that usually helps me feel more calm and in control.
 
First is a series of photos showing the step-by-step transformation, then just the first & last. They're phone photos & I had to edit them, then took a screenshot, so the quality isn't great.

Hey bro im a daily smoker. Probly a year back I had a bag. Wasent sure the strain or anything anyhow it would put me in a bad place. Like horrible, thoughts of suicide and just flat out depressed. I suffer from depression as well and it was just over the top. I was ready to give it up for good. I think I gave he rest away and next time had some good shit again and things were good. Try and identify what you are getting and make a personal log. That way if you come across it again stay away from it.

Two more, this time with Sharpie. This one took about 16 minutes (10 were more recent & I'm feeling very controlled by my OCD)
 
Again, I hope people only share the drawings for good reasons and don't claim credit. And maybe say they got the idea from meisabelep, the hopeful future artist with the initials NLP -- Someday I'll reveal myself publicly as meisabelep.

If you can't know for sure how much/what's in your edible, it's really hard to experiment. I like a lot of edibles, bought and homemade, for my depression and anxiety. There's no way edibles are an option for me without that info. 
 
yea art
