Hi! I'm someone who deals with anxiety a lot. You may have seen my post about weed/hemp. I love myself some good hemp but unfortunately it's quite expensive, and I'm also a huge fan of growing and cultivating things (though with ADHD it can be quite hard to remember to take care of it...)

Is there any plant out there that's known (scientifically proven) to have relaxing effects without being addictive and also possible to grow without getting me arrested for growing it? It sounds like something that would be way too good to be possible, but I thought I would ask.

Thanks for the help in advance!

    This appears to be a double-blind placebo study heavily implying that hops (or at least dry extract of hops) have an actual impact on depression and anxiety? Dunno if it’s significant, I just looked at the results and not the data, but this seriously implies it’s a good choice
