When looking at anxiety and really any mental health concerns having lots of CBD in your medicine is important. Marijuana can help reduce the need for benzodiazepines and other medications but you need to work with a qualified QMP to make sure you are getting the right dosages of the right meds.
What questions do you have about medical marijuana for improving your anxiety or other mental health conditions?
Tim Pickett, a Utah QMP and founder of utahmarijuana.org, meets with patients daily to recommend medical cannabis. Having a certain CBD dosage on hand as you ease into this treatment is highly recommended, especially if you are unfamiliar or made uncomfortable by the euphoric head high that comes with cannabis. CBD will help to tap that feeling down a bit.
Your other host, Blake Smith, CSO of zionmedicinal.com, a Utah CBD and cannabis company, has studied cannabis and the endocannabinoid system for years, and it shows. While Tim takes over how to use CBD, THC, and loads of other cannabinoids to help different ailments, Blake will explain WHY CBD works for Parkinson’s, pain, seizures, etc. for a full spectrum view of your treatment. We believe this will help patients take control of their own healthcare - something that hasn’t been possible in many other areas.
We are so excited to welcome a very special guest - Josh Fitzgerald - to Discover Marijuana season 2! Josh is Pharmacist in Charge at Deseret Wellness’ Provo location. He’ll be joining Tim & Blake this season to give a fresh perspective on Medical Cannabis in the Utah space and beyond.

It's crazy watching this in the UK. There are many people here who are desperate for the medical benefits of cannabis but we are still reduced to seeing shady gangsters on street corners and who knows what we are getting?! I pray for change everyday. Thank you for this video I found it very interesting and informative.
Medical cannabis is legal in the uk
@@Bladee991. You must have had two previous prescription's and proof from your doctor that it hasn't worked aswell (NHS is struggling) 3. You must pay 50 Pounds too see a private specialist who actually prescibe's it for you if you need to smoke is trouble is that takes for ever and if you are already stuck the doctor's won't prescribe. 👀💚💪🌏❤
I've never seen anyone selling cannabis on street corners in the UK😂
It's legal in the UK medically. Use Google. Sign up for a consultation. It's costly but if you're really that interested in helping yourself It's there.
It’s available uk on prescription
This guy hit it on the spot sativa caused me to have a panic attack .. i didnt like it at all .. Yet if i have indica it calms me .. indica makes me chill and beable to manage life ... Good talk man
I realized that even though I like sativa being a high focus method to use when needed, it triggers my anxiety horribly. Especially if it’s in edible form. I gravitate toward hybrids or indica to tailor my anxiety attacks and I’ve realized that breathing through them along with feeling like your in a safe space helps!
Not enough people are using breathing techniques to calm down. You make a really good point. Plus, those anxiety attacks tend to only last a short period of time. Other people try setting a timer on their phone or watch.
Really I feel like what sativa really give me bad headache so I only stick with mostly indica strains
PANIC ATTACKS ARE HORRIBLE!!
@@joshtabarez8268 the only head aches ive gotten have been from headband highs as i call em i have to be careful with thos
I have schizoaffective disorder and I medicate with halodol kolonopin trazodone mirtazapine. That being said I also use weed and nicotine. I learned from this and your other video. Thank you
I support Utah's "no flame to flower" law for educational reasons (engaging individuals with science on many levels) but I do feel that we as a people/coming together, ought to perhaps ease up on public use. I say this because I too suffer with anxiety, and I do prefer cannabis over many other medications when it comes to treating ptsd, however I'd like to know that I (being responsible and respectful) can legally medicate while exploring Utah's mountains or on some of these paths/asphalt trails running through the neighborhoods as a part of therapy without the feeling or pressure of being attacked or ticketed. No doubt in my mind there is a good amount of people who could use this support.
Funnily enough, I LOVE sativas! Even though I have bad anxiety. I took an edible and that was the only time I believe I had a panic attack using cannabis. Give me hybrids or Sativas in vape form, and I’m usually fine. Though I keep getting recommendations to use an indica.
Question was asked, but not directly answered. Type of terpenes are key, to know which strains address anxiety the most effectively and avoid unwanted effects. Linalol, myrcene, and beta-caryophellene are three terpenes that are recommended for anxiety relief.
Wow. I’m literally seconds away from starting.
Unfortunately in my state of Wisconsin we don't have any of that legal the only thing I've been using is Delta 8 that seems to be working as far as hybrid goes same with indica
I use Sativas and Hybrids to curb my anxiety during the day, at low doses though. I love MAC, GSC and Flo White for treating my daytime anxiety.
Great insight! Thank Nick!
What do you consider a low dose?
I've been using Sativa inhalation for 13-14 MPH, 30miles round trips with a 8 fusion history of my back.
Ok
Cannabis is brilliant.
Appropriate dosing is important. At higher doses It can actually cause anxiety and lead to intense unwanted Introspection. However, at lower dosing it can be quite relaxing.
Maybe you should get to the bottom of why your introspection is giving you problems. . .
It is in most cases a good thing, however, there are those moments that can give one pause. @@bw5187
Does vaping ruin your lungs
I'd be extremely interested to hear a discussion on Multiple Sclerosis.
Thanks for the feedback! We do have a video on that subject: th-cam.com/video/jEQc8dHdUAA/w-d-xo.html
I wish I could be one to use it for Anxiety but Utah doesn't allow it but there's so many people in one place and I can't go shopping anymore. Work is bad too but I can't be baked in a Work environment lol. Thanks for your videos.
last resort id use ashwaganda and valerian root if u have problems with sleep start with 1mg meatonin i wouldnt go past 3 mg tho unless uve been diagnised with sleep disorders and even then aways cross refrence with other medications for interactions and find and talk to an open minded doctor when u find one its a god send
I have an anxiety disorder and PTSD from SA and DV, and I have used the plant to help me cope with my symptoms. I have received an offer for a job that I am well qualified for and would be so satisfying professionally and personally, but, sadly, they have a testing requirement. I would be devastated if the way in which I have found relief from my psychological pain disqualify me from helping others who are also suffering. The drug laws in this country are inhumane and need to change!
Marijuana is as complex in flavor as it is in it's effects.
theres too many hybrid strains and not enough pure strains sativa indica. too me and escpecially getting back into smoking, applying for a card, i want to try either pure sativa or indica and i know that there is just a bunch of hybrids that are way too strong i already know. i dont need something getting back into smoking that requires one puff that sounds stupid or maybe the weed i used to smoke was no good because it didnt even feel like a weed high, like i used to get while smoking mids it just felt like an anxiety rush. im tired of these stupid strains like gorrila glue and fake og kush that aint even good to me ive had better experiences from smoking middle grade
What about tourettes?
A blinker usually does the trick
I'm going to sound stupid here; What's a blinker?
@@75blackviking Slang for taking a massive hit from a electric dab cartridge. Many dab cartridges or "vapes" have a setting that can dispense a high amount of vapor as opposed to normal hits and it is indicated by a blinking light. Thus a blinker. Do not do this if you are a beginner you will not have a good time.
@@javabeanjohnnylearns8978 Thanks for the info. I learn something new every day, it seems.
1 gram of the diamonds treat my anxiety well and I sleep so good
p.s.if i was a scientist these videos would work for me a lot better. Let's sell sprays too.
Crazy went to d hospital n dey say weed causes anxiety 😕
🎉
Well why to use marijuana?
Why not CBT to treat anxiety?
I’m an older woman, 59 taking edibles and vaping to get through the day. I’m staring to worry about lung cancer etc. Anyone else my age out there and what do u think? Thanks!
I saw a video of a lady using Vapes and tinctures for cancer successfully. Other than that I’m not sure
Vaporizing cannabis herb avoids fully combusting the flower. This is a major step towards mitigation, it's commonly thought.
Its still bad for the lungs , you are still inhaling smoke and can develop asthma too
Do you use a dry herb vape? If so, you will be fine. Cannabis helps the lungs
@@Kudu1987 I don’t know what that is😵💫 I used to vape with concentrate pens and have switched. My new rig has something that I can smoke herb and concentrate.
The guy on the left is selling cartridges and vapes in every video
Delta 8 has helped me and my anxiety ❤
BS I'm from Tangier Morocco 🇲🇦 we have all kinds of cannabis Moroccan black Marijuana ...tretika.
This sh...will give you more anxiety .
Stick with xanax
My point exactly!!
Benzos take approx 20mins and i can feel a big panic attack is coming and take one. Anxiety and panic attacks are different, this person is mixing both. Also i tried cb oil and it had no effect on me plus it tastes horrible and very expensive and i do.nt smoke or vape!. For me benzos control my attacks
Cbd by itseld won't do too much. You would do better on full spectrum oil
I'm with you on that! I been on various benzos for about 20 years and they work tremendously! I've tried indica, sativa, CBD flower and carts and they only give me more anxiety and heart racing feeling. I'll stick to my Xanax
@@vrioutlaw5738 try hypnotherapy
The guy in the striped shirt was asking very intelligent, well thought-out questions, whereas the guy in the white shirt's answers were a bit troubling at times, and he kind of came off as your stereotypical know-a-little-bit-but-not-really-the-full-story kind of budtender.
7:24 "lower endocannabinoids"??? You don't get endocannabinoids from an exogenous source.
Weed makes my anxiety 100% worse. I get paranoid, anxious, nauseous etc.
have you tried indica strains? or half cbd half thc?
@@LIVEMETRIX187 i don't think so.
No. The strains you have tried don't work for you. There's thousands out there. One strain can give me terrible anxiety and a racing mind and others can relax me and give me a great experience. It's about finding the strain that actually works for you as an individual.
@@Jacktoriousrexrex I've tried enough to know it's not for me. I'm not one that can take any drugs, prescription, otc or illegal because they all have effects on me that aren't the norm.
@@GLITTERandSKULLZ Just out of curiosity are you from the UK or somewhere that it's legal?
Can we please stop calling it Marijuana, we need to get people to call it cannabis, we are not Mexicans. Thank you
I agree with everything said, but one thing I would have changed, and added to, is the benzodiazepine argument; as there are tons of cannabis users who are trying to use it to substantiate and reduce their Benzodiazepine use. The video made a comment about the the time frame for Benzodiazepines to take effect in relation to panic attacks, and while most do take 30-60min to take effect, one of the most widely abused benzo, alprazolam, or ‘Xanax’, takes roughly 5-10min to kick in and is extremely potent, which makes it very effective against anxiety but *VERY* dangerous when it comes to addiction. I think this would have been a better argument in the video for using cannabis instead on benzodiazepines as it is a far far better alternative to avoiding potential long term benzodiazepine use and possible addiction as benzodiazepine addiction is one of the most dangerous due to the potential side effects of the addiction and withdrawal, which can include seizures and death. Anyone who is using benzodiazepines I would definitely recommend and suggest using cannabis over benzo’s any time you possibly can and would recommend you speak with a doctor about reducing your benzodiazepine use as much as possible
Yeah I've been on benzos 20 years and I've tried many different types of cannabis and CBD but they all just give me more anxiety heart racing and get real hot and just feel off but Xanax works for me the best then probably Klonopin next as my Dr switches me up every couple years but I wish I could smoke without getting that feeling
I remember when RC benzos were more available that people were selling vapes with benzos. I'm guessing those would take effect quickly but are high risk (and mostly illegal).
