Update on how this stuff is working out....it chills me out a lot. This is plain cbd with no THC. When out I don't worry as much of what ppl think of me. It calms my nerves. What a great feeling to finally not feel so anxious!πŸ˜„πŸ˜„ Thank you cbd!! Has anyone else had luck with using this stuff? How does it help your anxiety?? This stuff was expensive. $80 for 1000 mg. If you can can you tell me if cbd Has worked for you?

I never tried it but am glad that it is working for you. At those prices, it sounds like they are no better than drug dealers. 😊

Lol yea this stuff is expensive but it chills me out quite a bit. No thc in it. Marijuana isn't legal in the Mormon state. Totally ridiculous. They're trying to get legal medicinal marijuana passed here. Would be cool. How ya doing???

I'm doing okay.

If the oil is working then it is worth it. Is there any side effects like making you tired?

That's good to hear that doing ok and hanging in there. At night it keeps me asleep till morning. I'm only awake for a little while due to drinking coffee again. I just took some cbd oil a bit ago hoping to fall asleep for a bit. When I take it in the morning I don't feel tired at all. I've been sleeping in so by the time I wake up and take a few drops of cbd it will calm my nerves.

Hi love dogs not heard from you for a while! How does the cbd oil work along side conventional medicines ? I take rather a lot of medicines such as amitriptalene, quetiapine, venlafaxine along side other medicines as well! Any input from you would be great! Take care my friend david xx

Hiya David, I also take I think 5 medications. They work great but as far as anxiety goes this has worked the best! Its not addictive like benzodiazepines. As far as it working with the meds, I don't notice any problems. It works wonderful with my meds! I'm so grateful that it works for calming my nerves and keeps me asleep till the morning. Great hearing from you David. Hope your doing great😊☺

Celtic27 I take several of those meds too and the CBD oil doesn't seem to affect them. I've been using it for awhile now along with the gummies or brownies. I feel much better than I used to when I take the oils. Hope that helps!

Good you’ve got the confidence to get out and about interaction with others is so important to our wellbeing things can only get better 🎢🎡😊.

Yes I can now get out when I can. Only problem is I sweat profusely while outside in this heat. I live in the high desert. Hot πŸ”₯. Plus some humidity. It gets so bad my hair gets completely soaked with sweat. That causes anxiety So I only go out when I really have to! I agree with what you said. Interaction is good when someone is nice enough to talk to. Have a really good day☺☺

I've had a good bit of luck with CBD oil or the vape. I had to buy the 1000mg to really see any difference and I think it's a 1 oz. bottle? You can either put a little under your tongue for a minute or hit the vape a few times and that helps. I have anxiety leaving my house too now bc of mostly medical problems (seizures, migraine, back/leg issues, etc.) That has made my anxiety 10x worse bc I never know if I'm going to be out and have a seizure or pass out so I never go anywhere alone.

Kudos to you for trying to work past it and get out more!

Omg I have epilepsy too so I know how that feels!! That's so wonderful that cbd helps you too☺☺ I had horrible anxiety and now happy except for this horrific sweating! Now I might have hyperthyroidism!! Ugh. I just had a seizure at a lake. Luckily I was sitting on a bench next to my mom. We were supposed to be out on a different lake floating on air mattresses. Thankfully it was cloudy that day!! Lost my license and car due to a minor car accident. Seizures has ruined my life!! Is your seizures bad too?? I have grand mal seizures. This is the first time trying cbd. I use select cbd 1000 mg oil tincture. Love this stuffπŸ˜„πŸ˜„ Do you know if it helped with your seizures?? I still take my Tegretol XR. Are you taking an anti epileptic? Thanks for responding!!

lovedogs51511 Sorry it took me so long to reply, I just get on when I can bc of my migraine.

It has helped with my seizures as well! I take Keppra for my seizures, they're not grand mal though. Mine can get pretty severe and I pass out a lot during and afterwards or just pass out a lot in general! My anxiety has gone off the charts since I started having seizures 2 yrs ago but they believe mine are induced by my migraine I've had for over 2 yrs straight. I've done lots of tests and been in the hospital for them for treatment quite a few times. I still drive short distances if I HAVE to bc I know when I'm going to have one and can pull over but it's still scary nonetheless. My Drs have told me not to drive but sometimes it can't be helped!

I'm SO glad you weren't actually out in the water when yours happens. Lots of people don't understand how crippling these are for those of us who have them and they DO ruin our lives. I feel completely worthless and like a burden most days. I'm not used to the life I've had for the last few yrs, going from having a great career to sitting home all of the time being so anxious of what's going to happen next. I absolutely despise it!

I have a signal to my family (mostly my kids who are here all of the time except for school) that I'm going to have one and they have saved me many times from getting hurt but other times when no one is around I'll just lay down wherever I am in the house and let it run its course.

I wish you the best of luck and I'm sending hugs!!

I know what you mean. Seizures ruined my life too. I'm taking tegretol XR. I've had seizures driving due to drugs. Being sober now the seizures are not as bad. Still ruins my life!! Sorry to hear about your migraine. Wow 2 years is long time. I do the same stay at home and it does drive me nuts. I'm glad I wasn't on the lake too. Would of drowned. Pretty scary. Thanks for sharing you experience!!

Yea I'm shocked it works as well as it has☺

lovedogs51511,

I started using it a couple weeks ago.

I started with the Liquid Gold CBD extra Strength gummies. Those made me feel really good. But tired b.c also contains melatonin. they lasted less then a week they were $25 a bag.

I bought CBD oil for $90 for a 72mg I was given a discount It normally 99. It definitely is very pure though. I take 1/2 dropper in morning.

I am still on antidepressants. But hoping to titrate them off them starting this week.

In short the CBD has been the 1st instance where I feel okay & normal. & not controlled by my anxiety. & I've been diagnosed for about 5 yrs now. & tried many things.

Oh yea that's pricey too. I'm glad your feeling good cause I know that good feeling too😊☺ Yea anxiety drugs never helped me. I quit my antidepressant Pristiq cold turkey and feel better than ever just taking the cbd. I think I take 1 dropper a day. Half in the morning half at night. I've been using it now almost a month. Glad we're both feeling great

β€’ in reply tolovedogs51511

Lovedogs51511

Yeah & it's only a .5 oz. What Brand do you use?

How long have you been using CBD?

I stopped my antidepressants a yr ago cold turkey & was off them for a year. But have been back on them now for about a yr. They don't work. I am just worried about the CBD stop working.

I'm sticking with Select CBD cause of how well it works. Been almost a month now. I hope the cbd is still working for you. Maybe up your dose cause I immediately had to and now feel pretty good.

β€’ in reply tolovedogs51511

It's working. I am just worried that it might stop. But think that's just anxiety talking! Thank you. Good to know it is working for someone else off of antidepressants. Makes me feel better about coming off them.
