From my experience and own research it's highly dependent on the ratio of THC to CBD (there are over one hundred cannabanoids in the plant which have the desired benefits, but for simplicity sake just these two are used in general discussion). I found when I have recently experienced, or have underlying feelings of general anxiety, high THC strains make the anxiety worse, ruminating thoughts become unbearable. The more you take the worse this feeling gets. (Edibles can be a horrible experience in this state) Essentially it depends on your predisposition to anxiety, the dosage you take, and the ratio of THC to CBD. Balanced ratios that would make this much less likely and induce a more relaxed or energetic state depending on the more dominant chemical. Unfortunately the legality of it makes it impossible to verify the ratios of cannabis substances
