RE: Marijuana and how it helps me.
Maybe this can be of some help? There are suggestions on page 3 but I suggest reading it all. Especially the second page.

Thank you for that article. I have studied a lot since I started having them and besides taking medications from a doctor (which i wont do) marijuana has been the only thing that has helped with my anxiety.
Have you tried some of the suggestions in that article? They don't suggest taking medication but supplements instead. Magnesium, tryptophan, b vitamins and many other things.
That I have and I have tried other things as well. Marijuana helps me the most.
This might be of interest.
"The combination of THC and other MIXED CANNABINOIDS contained within CANNABIS stimulates a short-term spiking of GABA, but is followed by a subsequent LOWERING OF OVERALL GABA LEVEL; and hence overtime can CAUSE or EXACERBATE ANXIETY.
"There is some interesting recent research (and a growing number of annecdotal user reports) however that has indicated that PURE CANNABIDIOL might possibly be an effective ANXIOLYTIC, whereas the THC and/or some of the other MIXED CANNABINOIDS may be the cause of the long-term reduction in overall GABA levels, which can be avoided by ensuring that only the PURE CANNABIDIOL is administered"
