Life can be difficult. It’s all too easy to become overwhelmed by the trials and tribulations of adulthood—past, present, and future. More specifically, anxious obsessing over relationships, jobs, chores, family and finances is an unhealthy practice.
Anxiety is a real issue in modern society and these psychological afflictions can become pathological in time. However, there are several ways in which one can curb their high-strung disposition. For starters, exercise is always a good way to burn off feelings of anxiousness. Not only are endorphins great for the psyche, meeting weekly exercise goals leads to feelings of accomplishment.
Doctors prescribe a slew of different medications to aid with anxiety including Xanax and Valium. These drugs can be helpful in getting people through particularly stressful situations (such as divorce or moving) or can quell panic attacks in extreme cases. But, these prescribed medications are notorious for building dependency and addiction, and they have contributed to a number of drug overdoses since gaining overwhelming popularity in the last few decades. Nonetheless, those with a nervous temperament can still look to medicines for help—namely that of certain cannabis strains.
Know that there are multiple ways to consume marijuana, you can eat or drink it, rub it into your skin, vape, smoke and much more. Ask the budtenders at your local dispensary which products have the strains listed and then pick how you want to put it into your body.
