Street weed just won't be as good/strong. A dealer doesn't benefit from putting extra drugs of theirs onto your weed. Powdered drugs (heroin, cocaine) get cut with other stuff (vitamin B12, sleeping pills, baby powder), so that they can make a profit.
Anyway, smoke & enjoy. It totally helps with depression. :)
Yeah, this and you don't usually know which strain you're getting with street stuff. That may or may not matter to you though, it does to me since most types... well
Weed used to help me, but gives me anxiety now
This, lol. There have been a couple times since the "switch flipped" that I've felt pretty good, but 99% of the time I am extremely uncomfortable and paranoid until I come down. I even get anxious if I'm around someone who's high or I smell it, cause it makes me think of that specific feeling. Though the times I've had a decent reaction have been with low-thc, indica-heavy strains. Wish I lived in a legal state
Anyway have fun with it bud (heh), I had a hell of a time when I started. It really alleviated a lot of stuff; anxiety, depression, chronic pain/nausea... and the years I was smoking daily were honestly the best years of my life. I was actually socializing, getting involved in the art community, having a life... I really miss the way it used to affect me. I hope it turns out to be a solution for you
