I am worried by how much coffee I drink throughout the day. It helps me focus and stay alert, but I can’t help but worry about the effects it is having on my heart. I have moderate attention deficit disorder and used to take a prescription stimulant prescribed to me by my doctor. However, I hated how the stimulant affected my mind. I always felt like the effects were too strong and beyond my ability to integrate it in my life without it hampering my ability to function normally. I got to a point where sometimes it would stimulate my mind so much that I’d have an anxiety attack. And whenever I was under a spell of worried restlessness, it wasn’t exactly conducive towards staying focused and on task with my job. That’s largely why I gave up the psycho-stimulants in favor of old fashioned coffee. I just need to get control of my use before it gets out of control. Thankfully cannabis sativa strains are helping in that regard. They give me a sense of mental focus and clarity that I never had with prescription stimulants. Additionally, I don’t get a racy heart with most cannabis sativa strains like I do with too much coffee. Yesterday I bought an ounce of the popular South African strain, Durban Poison. The recreational cannabis dispensary had sativa strains on sale for 35% off so I took advantage of the low prices before it was too late. I also like Durban Dawg a lot too, which is Durban Poison crossed with the amazing hybrid strain, Stardawg. Both strains give me an amazing sense of focus and creativity, but Durban Dawg is better at relieving stress in the process.
