Story Weed Reduces Suicidal Thoughts?

[Efem]

Anybody have any opinions on this? I've been feeling pretty suicidal recently, but I got back into cannabis and the thoughts aren't as strong.

 

[Chlo]

For me, weed now just induces a lot of anxiety, but then again, that's probably just because my tolerance is so low now. It used to help a bit temporarily.

My guess is that it varies both by person and by strain. Like chlo, it tends to make me more anxious... and I often get into thoughts about my failures in life.

On the other hand, low THC options can relax me. Just ate a 5mg gummy to help me get to sleep.

Start with high CBD, low THC if you're looking for relief from anxiety.

For me, weed is fun and gives me happiness. Makes me not want to kms lol. I love weed tho as well as any other sort of drug.

Ketamine helps me

Yes. I made the same experience. I combined it with magic mushrooms - there are much stronger antidepressants as weed. Often you need only one trip and your depressions are blown away (look at youtube, there are many many videos about this fact) for about 6 month.

I've smoked weed for over half my life and still want to CTB.

I smoked for years to help with depression. In the end weed ruined my life, it put on pink glasses on my perception of life and my ability to do judgment.
How pathetic.. I thought it was harmless and abused it.
Now when I smoke I just get very anxious.
It's ruined for me too

I used to love to smoke weed to chilll out and escape life for awhile. I was a daily smoker and then 6 years in it started to give me horrible anxiety. Now I can only smoke if i've taken a benzo, so I rarely do it anymore. Plus, i'm in pain management and I get drug tested.

it may make you care less for the moment, but if you get triggered it doesn't matter if you're high or if you're smoking a ton of shit after, you will BE suicidal. experience of a 24/7 smoker

canbabis provides a vacation from anxiety & depression, for me; but the rebound anxiety isn't worth it. Unless I have month's work at a time ..not worth it

 

[dmoroden]

it helps me a little when im high, but then the depression comes really strong when im not... i wouldnt recommend to smoke every day. I did it for the last 8 years and it drains your daily energy.

I have smoked weed and found that it was okay..

It definitely didn't relax me (though it was only for €5). Made the mistake of smoking it before an afternoon class. Was listening to music then I saw a hallucination (not really a concrete one but almost ones you'd get in a hypnagogic state) laugh. Also started panicking completely as time seemed WAY too long.

It always makes me feel better :)

Weed made me more depressed tbh

Weed gives me anxiety initially but i still love and its illegal in my country but no one nor me gives a fuck about that. Suicidal thoughts on weed are more scary x1000 to me. It would be impossible to go through with it after having some. Life would be better if I had medical but it will never happen.

Many different types of weed. But for me Sativa helped a lot with my depression. Unfortunately, like @dmoroden said, it masks the depression for many. And daily use of it combined with other meds (e.g. anti-depressants) can be problematic.
