A good indica strain should do the trick

Speaking of social anxiety, I used to start sweating, profusely, when I would take to an attractive girl I didn't know very well. Time kind of took care of that.

Social anxiety is a real problem for some. It's not new, they just put a name on it finally. The brain works in funny ways. What seems silly to one person is a real problem for someone else. Some people have fear of heights, some of confined spaces, some of being outdoors even.

I know an indica is what I'm looking for, just looking for the right one.
any suggestions for strains that relax the body and slow down the brain. sativas sometimes make me feel like my mind is on overdrive. they make me over analyze everything so I'm looking for the oposite of that

I'll second the GDP suggestion. I've noticed quite a few other purples and purple crosses reduce anxiety as well.

Lots of stuff in the blueberry line of genetics is good as well, but is often a bit sedative.

Northern Lights is quite calming, but is heavier on the sedative side. Very appropriate for evening toke.

Is East Coast Sour Diesel available in seed? I dunno... but that one's really good too, though also a bit on the heavy sedative side as well.

Probably my all time favorite calm down strain is Herijuana. Heavy sedative medicine.

I don't know how your metabolism will react, but for a bit more sativa influence (better for daytime) mine agrees with things like: Kali Mist and Super Silver Haze or maybe Satori.

thanks, I think a sedative effect would be quite beneficial for me so that's good.
I'll check out the strains you mentioned will try to pick one

A large portion of my generalized anxiety has gone away with age too. But I also have a genetic condition that causes episodes of very heavy anxiety, among other things. Those clear headed indica strains are a godsend during those times.

Although, regular, daily doses of the clear headed, anxiety smoothing, sativa dominant strains (Kali Mist is my favorite) seems to keep me from having those episodes outright without forcing me to be sedated.

I have social anxiety, and I found that the indica's increased my anxiety, while the sativa's decreased it. Basically the sativas allowed me to socialize without the fear associated with being in public. The indicas however made me more self conscious than I already was cause I was having problems functioning even beyond my normal self; this in turn made it worse. I guess different strokes for different folks.

For something that might work is white ruskie. white widow AK 47 X. A nice calming affect, no mind racing or anxiety. Easy to grow with decent yield. The taste is amazing in a vaporizer or smoking.

I forgot to mention Strawberry Cough.

It's a sativa dominant strain that is very good at reducing anxiety, and is also very social.

I had a little bit of that and I know why they call it Strawberry COUGH. It will make you cough. I fired one up with my brother and forgot to mention the "cough" thing. He choked for 2 minutes I bet. I acted sympathetic but I was chuckling on the inside :D

Do you think Greehouse seeds bubba kush would be any good for anxiety? I know some people say it's not the real bubba but that's a different story.
I'm also thinking of getting blueberry gum from g13 labs. heard it's quite mellow and relaxing.
any other suggestions welcome. if it's clone only don't bother telling me about it, It's just to depressing to hear about those amazing strains I can't have :(
