Skywalker OG

For background- I used to smoke a lot a few years ago until anxiety made it an unpleasant experience. After trying various prescription pills, I decided to give smoking a chance again. This was the first strain I've smoked after getting my card and, because I was nervous about marijuana heightening my paranoia, I was very relieved with this hybrid. I smoked only a couple hits at a time, to see how it affected me, and spread out a small bowl over an afternoon. Not only was it not making me paranoid, my usual anxiety felt "muted" or like it had sort of dissipated. I wasn't giddy or anything but enjoyed walking my dog, cleaning/doing chores, and watching Stone Quackers.
It DEFINITELY made me sleepier than expected and I felt a little sluggish. Since I probably used to mostly smoke sativas, I wasn't used to being so relaxed from weed. I tried to read a little bit and found it a little hard to focus, but I could see how someone with insomnia or pain would find great relief from this strain.
I'd be interested to find a strain that does similar things for anxiety but doesn't necessarily make you as sleepy. Still, this was a good first try in my journey of rediscovering marijuana as medicine. :)
