The tried and true anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medications prescribed by a physician or psychiatrist.

Aside from the drugs, you could exercise. There are some things that work well for some people, but if it is really bad then you should talk with your doctor.

What helps...?

Smoking weed and pretending it's just CBD.

get out of self so i hear

I recommend the medicine + therapy combo, otherwise... Nitty gritty therapy homework: Thought records.

* Link to one: www.therapistaid.com/therapy-worksheet/thought-record
* Otherwise do a google image search for examples and explanations on how to use one

Any CBT/DBT therapist worth their salt will give you one of these, sometimes their own variation. Generally you're going to write down what's going on, in your head, what emotions you're feeling, and then look at alternative views or points... it's something that gets easier over time to where you'll be able to capture paranoia/depression.

One of those, "You gotta put in the work" things. Though if marijuana helped take the edge off, and you can't do it now... why not CBD?

Cbd might actually help slightly, it helped me before. Other than that though i am not sure what could help the OP tbh, instead of quitting outright maybe reducing the amount slowly over time first. That way you wont have the cravings for it as bad or some of the side effects or withdrawals wont be as strong, but if you made it this far OP you can keep going. I hope you start to feel better soon and goodluck <3

I appreciate the help fam!

Have you tried handstands?

I have PTSD , anxiety, depression, etc. and the only thing that has helped me is Klonopin.

Been about two months and still having bad days.
What helps...? I'm crawling out of my skin right now 🥴😞

Staying active.
Sometimes you do need to have that relax period but generally keep active.
Get a routine.
Learn to breathe deeply - take some time to pause and breathe if anything feels edgy.

Gardening / tending some plants.
Exercise - stay active. No need to blow yourself out but occasionally you can really give yourself the push above the normal exercise procedures.

Focus on something good and don't let other things taint it.

Art, you don't have to be 'good' just learn to sketch it can be as rough as you like its your interpretation and practice it. Will get you in that 'active' zone. like take a pad and pen out with you. youtube and sites dedicated to sketching roughly and quickly for some pointers.

THC helps.

Mescaline also helps I heard.

In a more broad sense with society overall, it'd help if they made weed legal in all 50 states, and in addition decriminalized ALL drugs. For that matter decriminalize all drug use in all countries everywhere.

The war on drugs is not even about drugs. It's about economic control over South and Central American nations etc. And about the police needing more to do and securing their funding and incarcerating more people, meanwhile more rapists and murderers will roam free while so many of them are busy executing their "war on drugs" i.e. war on personal freedom.

Many police agencies and departments could be defunded but still solve more crimes that actually matter and aren't just societal control and domestic police terrorism.

Life is full of bad days. Learn to manage your feelings by understanding where they originate and then make changes. Numbing yourself from pain, boredom, sadness, whatever it is, is only pushing the problem up a hill with a drug-dozer. When your drugs run out, the problem will just fall back on you.

Eat Dino.

Drink tea. Quit drugs or whatever THC it is you’re taking

Use of weed is so old. I wouldn't stop using it if it can make you happy. Just don't let it become an addiction Or especially if it's causing a lung issue.
For instance removing things you enjoy from your life to combat depression sounds like a terrible idea.

There is no such thing as THC dependency.

Just shake it off, bro.

No one has ever died from marijuana abstinence.

Light exercise is the best you can do.
Take walks, play some football (or handegg if you like that), ping-pong, w/e.

Your life isn't over, you are just used to the couch.
