paranoia

I live in Asia and all the plants here are Sativa. Just want to know which gives more paranoia... Sativas or Indicas?

I've never tried Indica nor any hybrid strains. I heard Indica gets you stoned. Does that mean less paranoia?

If I'm going to grow for personal use, I'd like to grow something that has less paranoia and gives more energy that sativa does!

Ive got attention problems, problems with stress, chest pain..
common sense would dictate I need an Indica to tone down the stress, tho it makes it worse since it seems to box me into this deep buzz, which is why I prefer the happy, energetic buzz of a sativa, or mostly sativa.

So I assume sativas give you paranoia, tho you wont find many plants that gives out an energetic buzz without having sativa genetics in it (unless I am wrong)
Royal Queen seeds special kush #1 seems to be 100% indica and gives out an energetic buzz (if you get the right pheno)

Hope this helps

In general, indicas are going to be much more sedative, though when you harvest can have a dramatic impact (more amber trichomes = more sedative). There's a few sativa dominant strains which don't give me paranoia as long as they aren't harvested too soon. My favorite is AK47. Lots of energy, no paranoia. I've heard Kali Mist is one of the very best and is not paranoia inducing, but I've never tried it. That said, if your prone to paranoia, don't smoke large quantities. Portion control helps.

some sativa's do the same to me, not all, but most
but that was from bag weed years ago, there were a few that made feel real good
now years later, depression/anxiety have worked their way in
been trying an indica(nl#5), it does seem to help on the anxiety
i'm thinking paranoia is an early warning on depression/anxiety, it was for me anyways

It is a proven scientific fact that paranoia is caused by the brain not knowing how to handle the chemicals introduced to the brain from smoking marijuana. This is why newbie smokers are almost always paranoid untilthey learn the ropes. If you smoke more than you can truly handle then you will also experiance these effects. Smoking an indica for the first time would probably freak you out more because it is an entirly different high than what you are used to. Test were done on this using MRI to see what parts of the brain was active in people who were paranoid after smoking.

i have social anxiety disorder and sativas can be my worst enemy. in my experience a good pure indica or indica dominant strain melts the anxiety away.
