CBD oil for anxiety?

I know I’ve seen a lot of us are suffering from anxiety and depression to some extent or another. I’ve had anxiety for as long as I can remember and here lately it has been way worse than usual. I was wondering if anyone has taken CBD oil for anxiety? This is my first day taking it so we’ll see if it helps. Just wondering if anyone else has tried as it seems to be getting very popular where I live. Thanks!

It sort of works. I see it as more of a placebo effect. Prescription meds is what has helped me lol

Full or even broad spectrum hemp oil is much more effective than CBD oil....for everything.

I have been taking CBD oil daily for about 4 years. I take it before bed and it has helped me tremendously with my sleep. I use to have trouble sleeping caused by anxiety..worries..stress. my doctor rather me try CBD oil before medication.

I tried the gummies at one point for sleep and it did nothing for me. Also, be mindful of where you purchase, a lot of CBD products have large amounts of pesticides/heavy metals, including lead.

I noticed a difference from this cbd lotion my mom gave me, but it's like a $70 lotion! 😱 The difference was subtle, but enough for me to feel better. But I'd also say my anxiety is on the mild side. It was worse for a couple months postpartum though. 😩

I use it for back pain, which helps a lot, but I also notice I felt calmer too. Everyone needs a different dose, so if it doesn’t work right away you may need to take more until you find the amount that works for you. The best quality as brand I found is cureganics. You can also try edibles or oil with very little THC, you can get a prescription.

Didn’t work for me- I wouldn’t waste your $$ it’s expensive. I heard it’s better for people that suffer from chronic pain : nausea.

I took something prescription for my anxiety a few years ago but I don’t remember what it was called. All I remember it doing was making me so sleepy though. May just need to try something different. Thanks for the input!

Prescription anxiety meds were only thing that helped me, and they still help me

CBD oil works for some, but if you're up for trying something similar that has a way higher chance of working for you, try CBD or CBG flower. Now, if you Google this you're gonna go "Omg, this girl has me looking up weed!" And you will be partially correct. The difference between what I'm recommending and pot that you know, is the THC. In CBD and CBG flower, the THC levels are too low to do anything to you, whereas in pot, that's the thing that gets people high. You do have to smoke it, but it works SO much better and faster. It does smell like weed but the smell doesn't linger around. If you smoke twice a week or three times a week, you will feel so much better. If you choose to go this route, make sure to buy from a reputable place, that way you know what is in what you're purchasing. I personally recommend a website called Industrial Hemp Farm. They have great stuff for great prices. If you have any questions, let me know. I have bad anxiety and this has helped tremendously!
