Reply To: Debilitated by depression & anxiety. Need an uplifting strain.. suggestions?
Hi Melzonie! I’m not incredibly familiar with specific strains, especially those that are available in CO, but I too am a huge light weight, I get anxious when I dabble in high potency sativas, and I crash when I smoke indicas. I prefer moderately potent CBD strains and CBD heavy vape cartridges to keep my mind elevated and my body at peace. I typically won’t go for anything above 24% totals, and the more CBD dominant the strain the better I feel. I’m usually not trying to get baked, just take a load off and slow things down a bit. I’m not qualified to give you any advice on fighting depression, but I’ve found that 10%-15% CBD with a lower concentration of THC allows me to keep my head straight and still feel very relaxed and at ease with my surroundings. I also really like the 10:1 CBD vape cartridges, as they’re super convenient and allow me cool down whenever necessary. The 15:1 cartridges don’t have much psychological effect on me, and I think that effect is necessary in conjunction with high CBD to get me in the right head space. I hope that helps a little and I hope you find something that brings you some peace!
