MMJ and Anxiety

Has MMJ stopped working for anyone? I thought I had respiratory problems but I just vaporized so it couldn't be so, and it seems it's just anxiety then. How sad since this medicine worked so well for everything for over 4 years.

Has anyone experienced that MMJ stopped working for them?

How was this fixed, a month break?

How can I return to regular use? Do I have to get my life completely in order?

How do oral/tinctures work? Wouldn't there be an absence of anxiety since there is not so much THC as there is CBD/CBN which provide more anxyiolotic effects?

I heard someone say DMT cured the anxiety, is this true, if I used something like that, I would be able to resume medicating via inhalation?

 

i have noticed that MJ has "stopped working" for me.
i have smoke for about 10 years now.
when i first started smoking (like once every few weeks), it was crazy - as we all remember.
after that faded, and i started smoking weekly, and then daily for years, it became more of a relaxed, normal high. this is the period that weed was maybe good for anxiety. although i wasn't using it to treat anxiety, i wasn't anxious while high. when i was new to weed, i was really high, hyper, and could be anxious. nowadays, i get anxiety when i'm high again. it's like the opposite of relaxation (someone on here said that, but it's so true)
for me this happened after 3 or 4 years of almost daily smoking - missing a day a couple times a month maybe, and then taking a break. i feel it may be "punishment" for abusing weed, using it too much.
i don't enjoy getting high as much as i used to, but i still smoke. sometimes i dunno why.



my advice to you man, seriously, and with utmost respect, it to lay off ALL the drugs for awhile. weed, RCs, meds, benzos, ALL OF IT
let your body and brain equilibrate

 

Thanks, I appreciate the advice.

What I do plan to do is to minimally take my benzos (I only take .25 mg Klonopin once or twice a day, and maybe 1mg Ativan later in day) and antidepressant which seems to kind of work.

I will drink at most a few drinks a day; socially more.

As soon as I get my medical authorization set up again I will try tinctures for the lack of THC that should metabolize; should get more CBN/CBD in my system orally. I will report back how that works.

I agree I need to get my life in every aspect, in order and am working on that.

I was hanging out with my friends who smoke lots of ganja again today and I felt a lot less anxiety from the proximity high so I think I may in the future be able to use it again but I will wait now and do nothing with marijuana except try the tinctures and see how that goes. I will report back on that.

 

I'm thinking alcohol made it stop working as I began to drink more since I couldn't afford the medicine I needed.

How was alcohol involved with your experience of cannabis not working the same anymore?

 

Perhaps a nice sativa dominant strain will be more effective than others as a mood stabilizer...

 

I agree. If the magic has trully seemed to stop then maybe try changing your smoking habits. Stop for a few days and then make a "special Occasion" and smoke to your hearts content. I always find that if i make to concrete of a pattern with my smoking it losses its sparkle.

Peace and love
