    Ive only had a handful of good experience smoking... When the bud was less potent, I was fine.. but if it was strong.. let's just say I accused a friend of being a COP (LMAO)...  Yep, I get anxious, nervous and paranoid and I know its all in my head and the setting im in... smoke less etc.. but I had 2 hits lol!
     
    But, one of my last times smoking (12 years ago before I got married) I had this bud that was PERFECT!
     
    I just had a perfect "buzz"... I was able to function and relax.. Overall it made me very happy. Cant really explain it beyond that.. I guess the THC content was lower? I dont know.. But I would like something similar or exactly like that experience.  Energetic, Upbeat and euphoria that will treat my anxiety, stress and other minor issues. 
     
    Can someone suggest any strains?  Being in Chicago Burbs, I cant really pick so Im screwed for the most part trying to find the right stuff

    Different strains have different potency. Find a strain you like and buy a oz or two. I think you want a sativa strain.

    Tell me about it! I bet most of the stuff around is Cartel grown anyway.. and heavy indica..
     
  8. i get the fear allllllllllllllllllll the time its just a part of the high for me and its not always a bad thing. keeps u safe. ok so what happens with the fear is theres too much thc in comparison to the cbd so it makes ur high too heady and not relaxy enough so u need an indica which has more cbd and will be a more chill high and u can even by cbd extracts and ur just like not even high just u can even do anything and u dont think ur stoned but then u realize u are. thats an indica high. u are just so chilled. fucking smoke some kush. purple right cause u can choose from ur dispensaries :D:D
     
  9. He said he wanted energetic. Indica will make him sit down with a bag if chips and fall asleep eating them.

  11. Well paranoia comes with smoking too much sativa. I think what you need is a sativa dominant hybrid and just catch a buzz. Honestly though I would just buy some weed and only take like 2 hits. It doesn't sound like a strain problem as much as a problem of over doing it and smoking too much.

    If you want an energetic high where you're functional I'd also look into getting a vape

    This site is pretty cool, lots of strains here, and lets you know what they do and what their medicinal effects are.
     
  13. Thanks everyone... but as I said, I dont have the ability to choose! Its street stuff lol.. No dispensaries in IL and its not 100% legal here yet for medical.
     
  14. Once you build up a bit of a tolerance the high changes and becomes more useable
    If you're interested in edibles, you can change the effects with different cooking times and temps. That will take some experimenting though to find the right recipe for your needs. Since it lasts 4-9 hours, you wouldn't want to try one for the first time before going into work or something.
    Generally the longer you heat the oil, the less psychoactive and more sedating it becomes

    Thanks for the info.  Not really looking to get sedated lol.. More like a energetic feeling of well being to treat my anxiety, mild depression, inflamation (psoriasis) and still be able to function without it getting me scared like it did when I was a kid.. Maybe it will be different now that I am older and more mature.. I guess its time to experiment soon..
     
  16. It might be difficult to find different dealers, but I have no doubt eventually you will find a decent one that will have the choice between indica and sativa.
    Try finding a good dealer and explain to him that you prefer sativa due to medical issues. I understand that most street level dealers do not know the specific type of product that they are getting, such as strain name and indica/sativa, but they may be able to point you in the right direction. Keep looking though. It may take a while, but getting on a personal level with dealers can help you in the long run.


    I smoke on 1/5. I was always taught to reduce fractions.
