Strains with the potential to beat opiate addiction

Hello guys, just wanted to throw this out there while it was on my mind tonight.

First off, I am by far NOT addicted to opiates nor do I take them anymore unless I am in serious pain and actually need them.

I was 6 years ago however, in opiate hell. I loved the feeling they gave me at the time and there was not one thing that could compare or make me stop abusing them.

Well, shit happened and I really had no choice but to quit and a few years after my solitary confinement, I was clean and fresh and began smoking lots of weed.

Now when I think about opiates it makes me sick to realize how hard it is on you, how it can reap you from your family and friends and destroy you in a flash of an ash burn.

Not long ago, I ran Barneys LSD from seed with three phenos. The most vigorous turning hermie (dammit!) and the other two come out great!

My least favorite smelled very strongly of lemon candy, very deep and pungent and extremely sticky and lime green. This one was a deep stone and very thought provoking, real heady but very bodily at the same time. I gave the clones of that girl away to a friend.

The other was milder in smell and had a very musky, chestnut, sweet skunky smell to it and had tons of small trichs all over it. Not nearly as sticky as the lemon pheno, but beat the high in all aspects.

This pheno was probably the best weed i've had that I can ever remember. The buds were HUGE and very sativish, with small foxtails all over, but ROCK hard. Huge yields!

I ran it in a sea of green once with NL#5 and a few others I don't remember and it easily yielded a solid cola each of 20-30 grams compared to hardly a half oz each on the others.

I ended up losing this strain due to a security brief, lord please let her rest in peace because I guarantee I will never find a pheno like this one ever again, but i'm about to start looking again.

Well, the whole point in this story comes down to the high. At first it hit in the eyes, as they began to turn my American eyes to Asian. Then I had this surge of energy in my head that was flowing and running down into my tingling face and wave throughout my body eventually into a constant cheesy flow. At the same time my thoughts and mind was very clear but overly creative at the same time.

I could remember things from when I was a child that I have never remembered before. I had a deep sensual feeling with my surroundings and appreciated nature like never before. I suffer from depression and anxiety and this stuff completely buried it beneath the surface.

I listen to music all the time, but I realize I just hear it now. This stuff made me listen to it, I heard words in songs and caught on to the meanings of the music as it flowed without even thinking about it.

This stuff felt exactly like opiates but so much better in every way. My friends and family agreed as well. It was only better as it felt natural and real, unlike an opiate high. Plus it gave you all of the creativity and love inside that an opiate simply cannot. It had the opiate body feel and mind feel plus so much more.

Anyone needing to combat opiates, I highly recommend growing some LSD or obtaining it from a reliable source. If it is from the pheno or cut I had, well, be prepared to fall in love deeply.

I will continue my search for this pheno as well as try more barneys gear, I have the laughing buddha on order list as of now. Seemed like a pretty solid grow and I got this strain while it was fairly new. I'm sure it has improved some by now.

I've never been into breeding, but I am definitely going to come here for help with it when the time comes, in case I have to lose the cut again.

Hopefully anyone with friends or family suffering from opiate addiction can recommend this strain and they will get the same feel from as I did.

I remember when i'd over indulge myself with this stuff, i'd sweat beads and the energy ended up converting to too much and just sit me on my ass lol.

It really had no ceiling at all to it.

Anyone else can speak for a strain that induced feelings similar to this one? I'd love to hear it and try it out!

Don´t be sorry MB, it was one interesting reading even if my experiences are a bit different.
While in the UK i had a mate that grew Barney´s LSD every other grow and we ended up swapping a few buds every now and then. If i remember it right it was a very potent sativa hybrid that would make you feel energized without major anxiety or paranoia.

But when comes to asking your question, which strains have the potential to beat opiates addiction i would risk saying all of them. It depends mostly on the user and how he uses weed to control is other addictions. More and more i feel that cannabis is a "Exit Drug" instead of the dreaded "Gateway Drug".
I´ve battled strong addictions (booze,heroin,cocaine,etc) for more than a decade and cannabis only helped out in dealing with it when i was ready for it and on the right mind&physical frame, until then it was just another psychoactive substance that i would use to alienate myself from my painful reality.

What i am trying to stay is that there is no magic strain out there that will end addiction all on it´s own. Imo addiction can only be beaten through a personal inner process that might or not involve other substances/people/locations/life style.

You can now all have a laugh but i´ve beaten my addiction by reading&listening over and over to the words of a very famous communist hippie...

Jesus Christ i mean. And it was mind boggling to have to accept, i am a spiritual pragmatic, that my evolution/salvation/redemption was cued in by something that i´ve dissed all my life. In the end this was proof enough for me, it´s not a question of tools but a question of wills ;)

Thanks for putting my brain at work on this sunny Sunday.

Actual LSD / Shrooms can put the fear of god back in you to put down the needle (or pill bottle or whatever), OG Kush / Bubba Kush to cope with withdrawals. I used to slam dilaudid into my veins daily about 6 years ago until myself decided to prescribe the above self medication.. Worked a tick.
