Reply to comment by StalkMeNowCrazyLady in Vaporised cannabis containing equivalent concentrations of THC & CBD induces less state anxiety than THC-dominant cannabis - results from a placebo-RCT of 26 healthy recreational cannabis users. by drdrugsandbrains

Vibes with my own experience. I stopped using weed regularly when I realized it was making my anxiety worse. I’m a naturally anxious person.

Did you try ingesting rather than smoking?

Either form will give me greater anxiety if I use it regularly. I never understood why people always said they smoked to chill out or relax because it’s always had the opposite effect on me. Like if I smoke I can’t go to sleep for at least 2-3 hours after because my mind will be too active.

Well you do you! I use cannabis instead of drinking alcohol. Good job being honest w yourself!

It took me years to figure things out. Now I’m just careful to use cannabis in smaller doses and to not use it daily. I prefer it over alcohol as well!

I have to recommend you Google the 'Dynavap'. Game changer

If poke party can come across one to try before buying, Volcanos are fantastic and madly expensive.

They're awesome but for conservation of flower, the Dyna is king imho

I have had one for about 2 years and use it occasionally with great success for relaxation, sleep, or fun. The strain of marijuana is important. Try a small amount until you find what you're looking for. I have one kind for sleep (kosher tangie) and one for fun (cherry dosido). Took awhile of trying different strains and reading up on them to find what I wanted. The original VapCap is still my go to. Smoothest and tastiest drag I've had. The Vong is also fun but takes a bit more tinkering and maintenance like most bongs do. Great suggestion you made.

Thanks mate. I genuinely think this device could help so many people out. I quit smoking tobacco with one of these and even people who don't smoke weed can use it.

There are a ton of flowers you can vape as a tobacco substitute. Lavender, camomile, and valerian to name just three and honestly, lavender through a vape tastes and smells amazing and it's actually quite relaxing. Obviously it doesn't get you high like cannabis but it is very pleasant.

They do. 'B' model now too which is only about 30 odd quid. It's a great little device.
