Medical Marijuana

Has anyone else been using MMJ? I had always been under the impression that indica strains were more effective for PTSD. In fact, my certifying physician recommended that I stay away from sativas. By accident I purchased some sativa and well, not one to waste, I tried it. It was really effective at helping me channel my anxiety into something productive and kept me out of my head. I'm wondering what other people's experiences are. Thanks!

I use a hybrid of both indica and sativa in my MMJ and find it to be super effective.

I mainly use a low dose edible that’s 2:1 CBD to THC but that’s also for pain and an Indica vape pen bc my lungs are babies and smoking flower kills me!! Haha. Indica helps me the most I have anxiety with some sativa strains but I do really well with Pink Unicorn and Jack Skellington.

I have to be careful with MMJ. Lower doses are great for anxiety, mood swings and general irritability that can take over at times. Too much, and I am in intrusive thought hell.

I do edibles as well. Not sure if I'm taking too many or not.

I think medicinal cannabis is very individual. Personally, I use it for slight sedation and to help regulate something like an acute mood swing or to help with sleep. If I find myself taking a heavy dose in the middle of the day, then that is too much for me and doesn't fit the medical purpose I am using it for.
