I've been medicating myself for anxiety and, and i know, i don't smoke weed for my anxiety. In fact, sometimes it makes it incredibly worse. Be careful about the kind of mental health treatment provided you go to because some psychiatrists are psycho pharmacologists. Psychotherapy plus medication out performs either one alone. I'm not afraid of it being like a stigma. I'm just like afraid of what it would do to my mind,. yes, if i want at the withdrawals associated with it.
