Hi all ,
can someone tell me which strains would have Low anxiety + low paranoia properties please , as now I am older I seem to suffer from these problems alot more than I used too.
I have read through many threads and have taken on board many pieces of great advice , but I would really appreciate some idea of what starins have these properties, thankyou in andvance for your help and suggestions.

have a look at the Mandala seeds,

they seem to claim that some of there strains have medical effects that help with anxeity and or depression. possibly paranoia.

check erm out.

Wouldnt bother with most Mandala strains, the ones ive tried, Speed Queen and Hashberry are on the whole just pretty weak, lacking much tangible effect at all to be honist.

I'd say what you want is some Indica leaning Blueberry, nice and potent but it doesnt leave you confused and paniced like some can. Also the potency means you dont have to smoke alot to get the buzz your after.

have a look at

Blueberry is also quite easy to grow aslong as you keep the spidermites at bay and dont mind the odd mutant.

Hope this helps!

Avoid Skunk No.1, many friends of mine find it too much, too wild and freaky; mind you, I love it and could happilu grow nowt else.
Try Pot of Gold, I found it very relaxing and calmative, mellowing without any trippiness or nonsense in the head. Not bad at pain control either, for cannabis.

Yes, stay away from ind/sat hybrids and sativa dominant strains. You want a full blown indica.

in simplistic terms, indica is more of a body stone, where as sativa's produce the head high.

something that is 100% indica, like afghani, hindu kush, shiva, mango, NL, misty, pog, romulan, etc I've not tried any of em yet, (growing pog) so not really sure if these strains would reduce anxiety/paranoia... but you can always harvest late for less buzziness and more couchy.

why not quit smoking it? and try it other ways, like eating? its a different high. If the problem carries on, maybe it's just not good for you, or try it in smaller amounts? Paranoia isnt nice, i have had times where i have felt paranoid, I found taking a break for a few weeks really helps. I was also doing massive amounts of other drugs at the time so i dont really blame the smoke for it. Rave on!
Maybe also try and find someone to talk to about the feelings you are having, maybe they are normal but because you are sensitive, weed just hightens the feelings?

peace man.

Take a wee break from the smoke. When you come back to it the blue strains all rock for anxiety. Plenty of exercise each day helps with panic/anxiety as well as making sure you have plenty b vitamins and fresh good food in ya belly. Ginseng is also good for balancing your mind out some but read up on it before trying anything new like that.

Hope you find something that works for you..

Some strains that rock for anxiety

Nirvanas papaya
Mandala's hashberry..not as strong as some but easy grow with no paranoia... nice too have something less strong if all you smoke is indies, cos too much strong indie gets you too nailed to the couch imo... but then I love my sats!
blue anything! blue moonshine is doing it for me at the mo.

like everyone says the indicas are the ones to look out for. When you toke make sure you are in a good space in your head with good vibes around you. Without being too hokey breathing techniques can help as well...oh cut down on the caffeine if you drink loads.

Once again this site proves to be a pot of gold , thankyou so much for your kind , sensitive and caring replys. If only the cannabis hating bridgade would only take a look at this and many other sites that have many caring people with sensitive attitudes and great intellegent attitudes towards helping others and giving professional advice, instead of putting us all in a box marked MAD,stupid, psychotic and any other cliched phrase they have for US.

Good for 420

For what it's worth I can attest as a former psychiatric professional that the advice given on this post is indeed sound. As for the advice being 'professional', it is probably better advice than you'd find from many professionals.

My inexpert take on your origional question is what better qualified heads have already stated - Indicas . Also one post said about harvesting late for a more couchlocky effect - right now I'm smoking an indica dominant, harvested late and dried at liesure, and it is rather soothing.

(Interestingly this weed's from a lame commercial strain-Big Bud, and it's shit when fresh. 2 people do it from clone, one harvests late - his is the one I have a Henry of and it's much better than the 'fresh' one harvested earlier from the same strain. The guy who does the nicer one has no real commercial agenda and is more patient.)

Also Reggae therapy works 4 me, Jimmy Cliff therapy's great
