If you have money to self-medicate, you have money for therapy and to get medication from a professional
Weed is orders of magnitude cheaper than therapy
I’ll admit I’m ignorant on the price of weed which is why I just left it at self medicate.
Where I live an hour visit with a therapist is about $180 if you don’t have insurance, depending on how often you get seen, you can easily spend that bar hopping or buy handles of crown over 2 weeks or a month.
If the weed is still leaving you anxious, saving for therapy or using resources to reduce the cost of it is worth a shot. I’m not trying to be a prude and say “don’t do drugs” I’m just trying to advocate for effective mental healthcare
