I went though a bad period of anxiety attacks 20 years ago. As a pot smoker, I had never experienced episodes like that, but I stopped smoking pot after being told it was increasing my anxiety. I was prescribed xanax which did help, and helped me sleep, but, after a few months, it didn't work so well either, so back to pot. Started exploring different strains of marijuana (not so easy 20 years ago,) along with other herbal remedies, and got back to growing like we did in the 80's, but with more knowledge.

Now that we are legal in Colorado, it's possible to find marijuana for many ailments, and it's the only medicine I hope I'll ever need. Infused lotions and edibles are excellent.
