You want CBG for physical pain and cbc for nerve pain. You want CBG for inflammation. CBD for inflammation. A bit of thc for entourage effect but not so much to make you high.

I recommend a nice type 2 flower from /r/type2trees and some CBG kief from Fern Valley Farms. Maybe pick up some Unicorn Butter from Flow Gardens since it’s high in CBC if you have nerve pain.

For anxiety/depression, look for strains high in linalool, limonene, ocimene and caryphylene (spelling? Typing this on the fly so may be spelled wrong).

I have a card for ptsd and don’t really use dispensary flower anymore. It’s not great. They’re not very helpful. I’ve read a lot on my own and this is what I use.

Thanks for the tips! Definitely seems like most people are figuring it out on their own, which is helpful to know because I was starting to feel like it was a me problem. I can't imagine being a cancer patient or elderly and trying to figure it out!

We have an endocannabinoid system that is unique to us. Everyone is different. What works for one person may not necessarily work for another based on their specific endocannabinoid system. It really is best to try out a bunch of things and see what works for you. These are guidelines based on expected results but really it’s very personal and I’m grateful to have found what works for me.
