It’s rough trying to get through a day of work when you have depression and ADD that are consistently distracting your brain.
- Some days I can barely focus because of awful moods, while other days I lack focus for no particular reason at all.
Drinking Pepsi with lots of caffeine helps enhance my ADD symptoms, however drinking too much and I’ll experience a feeling of anxiety that hastily leads to despair. It’s hard to strike the right balance each day. I would rather stay away from the prescription stimulants for the same reason as avoiding too much coffee, however they’re also bad for me because they can have long term effects on the serotonin response in your brain. I started using a much better solution for both my ADD and depression all in 1 package. That came when I tried cannabis products for the first time and bought Sour Diesel pre-rolled joints on a whim. It was such an amazing experience smoking that first joint of Sour D. The sativa strain focused my brain while melting my stress and my normal depression symptoms. Now I rely on sativa strains of cannabis to make it through my workday and get as much job done as humanly possible without getting distracted or feeling bogged down. Another sativa strain that I care about a lot is Dutch HIan. It’s a strain called Alpine Dutch Treat crossed with the famed HIan landrace. Using this strain of sativa during the day and day hours melts my stress while energizing my mind. Possessing a high quality sativa care about this is the difference between having and not having a more productive day. Some might like indica strains of cannabis, however I’ll take sativas every day of the week!
