I don't have a medical card, but I've got a very similar relationship with drugs and weed was never my thing either. It turns out that it helps me keep my mood in check like nothing else, though. Anger in particular - I don't lash out when I'm stoned.
For anxiety, it really can go either way depending on what you're going through. I used to get panic attacks every time I smoked throughout my 20s, but I tried it again a few years back and it has the opposite effect these days. Vaping and edibles seem to have a much lower risk of inducing anxiety, in my experience.
For depression, it's a bit trickier to get the balance. If I smoke too much I get lazy, and that just makes the depression worse. If you get it right, it won't make the depression go away but the depression won't bother you as much. It's
sort of like an opiate for psychic pain in that way. You still have to do the work, but the work feels much more engaging.
My ex had issues with weed giving them anxiety and just being too much over all but liked this one brand they found that’s basically “weed-lite”.
I guess the concentrations are a little lighter and it has some cbd in it so it gives you a pretty mellow easy going kind of high and it’s difficult to get to that lazy stage/extra depressed stage. I tried it once while visiting and it was pretty good, I also find if I over do it it tends to either Make be feel lazy or extra depressed.
Delta 8 is also great for that purpose, but you have to deal with the fact that it's unregulated and you really don't know what's in your pen for sure.
