OK I guess somebody has to bite the bullet and offer a little of 'quack' medicine here to help you out Weaselcracker. I'll understand if everyone has a good laugh and points at me but I swear by this information that I stumbled across awhile ago and whether it works or not (it should as it's been studied by the reputable British journal of Pharmacology) it definitely does the trick for me.
As I may have mentioned in the past I do suffer from bouts of anxiety at times, it can be outside where I think people are giving me funny looks, inside sat watching TV or even sometimes when I'm at my keyboard with fingers hovering over the keys to continue my ramblings before hitting the most used key on my keyboard, the 'delete' key. The anxiety was diagnosed as a part of my PTSD and it's hard to admit suffering from it when I consider myself a manly man, a Raging Viking even when I'm in the mood, although I do like to consider myself as a sensitive intelligent human being at other times too.
Now for me it doesn't matter whether a smoke is Sativa or Indica as like many people, I never really knew the difference myself until fairly recently, all I know is that sometimes when I smoke a weed it can induce my state of anxiety and then it's usually a case of hospital treatment due to the seriousness of it (my heart actually beats irregularly when it happens) but nowadays I rarely suffer from it. I had a bout a couple of weeks back but I wasn't smoking at the time, realistically it
never happens if I'm smoking anymore and it's all down to wait for it...Black Pepper lol.
Silly as it sounds there has been some research done on the effects of terpines in plants and fruits and their interactions with tetrahydrocannabinol and it has been found that the terpines in Black Pepper, alpha-pinene and caryophyllene which has been researched by the medical industry for use against bronchitis, multiple sclerosis, anxiety and depression amongst other things interacts with the terpines of the MJ plant and counteracts the effects of anxiety and paranoia.
Some people chew it before smoking and some people prefer just a few sniffs of it during smoking for almost immediate relief, I am one of the latter and I find that it not only helps, but that I don't even have anything for it to help. A few sniffs of this and I can smoke all night happily and with the nice mellow mood that I truly enjoy. Yes I know, it sounds relatively stupid and much like snake oil, but then again what people were saying about MJ and it's medicinal benefits were pretty much along the same lines until quite recently don't you think?
So in answer to your question as to which Indica would be a great smoke without the anxiety I will have to opt for
ANY. Don't be afraid to try something new and if it doesn't work for you then apologies for having unintentionally misguided you, but it will cost nothing except maybe a sneeze or two if you get too close
Personally I now know which strains are which, yet I still smoke any that is on hand, just so long as I have some black peppercorns and a grinder nearby (I have Black Pepper all around my house now, even as I sit here typing something out that may sound so strange and stupid to some and which I would never have considered writing while in an anxious condition). Of course you could take it all with a pinch of salt (pun intended sorry) but to be sure there is no harm in trying. The Mycene terpine in mangoes apparently does the same trick but needs to be ingested an hour before smoking, pepper is much cheaper and once I tried it a few times while the anxiety was actually kicking in I found that this is my way to go. If it works then maybe you could consider letting any of your patients know about this little lifesaver, it may need more research but for me it was well worth trying.
Apologies for the long post Weaselcracker, but I like to help out and as I've used it myself for awhile now I feel no shame in letting you know. Sending best wishes and hoping that you are well in mind, body and spirit. Much love brother
