Has anyone tried Hemp/CBD as a treatment for anxiety? I've heard that it can help a lot and I would prefer it to some medication that changes my mood but it can get so expensive.

I bought the CBD oil from Holland and Barratt, I had a few drops and felt like my head was going to explode, I have never had a headache like it, it was so bad I woke up in the middle of the night and thought that I was possibly having a brain hemorrhage. But I have heard many people say it's good for them, I didn't dare try it again after my experience, I have thought about getting the capsules, will let you know if I do.

Hi, I wanted to try it out for pain and fatigue and problems with sleeping. There's a company on line that sells CBD. They offer A sample for cost of shipping, 5.95. it's also at a starters dose. They grow their own, and develope it themselves and their facility is FDA approved. It's called whole greens. There is less then .03% of THC and it wouldn't show on test and that level makes it legal in All states!! I had good response and one payday I will start buying regularly. Buying from smoke stores and convenient stores are junk. Hope I helped some, any questions, just holler! Have a great night!

I use the candies and they help a little. Very little THC plus I NEED to quit smoking cigarettes for my health. Although, personally, I would rather smoke. I have multiple health problems and natures gift of cannabis is better than any freakin pill. Peace

I have NOT tried it because I've read about people who have the opposite reaction, i.e., their anxiety becomes worse or they begin having full blown panic attacks. A nurse practitioner recommended it to me, too, but I can't get past the fear of it making me more anxious. It would be nice to hear others experience, though.

For anyone wondering, I've tried hemp oil. I don't notice a difference in the anxiety during the day but I have been sleeping a million times better. That's just my experience though
