CBD???

[savgresh4]

I'm new to this forum. I'm 22 and suffer from health anxiety. I have been suffering for about two months now and have finally reached a point to where I don't know what to do. I have gone to the doctors and ER several times over the past few months and continue to get diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. I was prescribed Zoloft and have been too scared to take it. I have been looking into natural healing ways. Does anyone know about CBD oil for anxiety? Does it work? Where can I get it? How much should I take? Any info is appreciated.

Super sorry to hear about your anxiety! I’m a guy and I’m 20 and I have been suffering with anxiety pretty bad. Just know that you’re not the only one and it will get better! I’ve taken many different CBD’s. I’ve taken 10mg capsules and the brand was called YILO. And I’ve also taken oil. If you heard of Dan Bilzerian the famous instagram dude. He actually has a brand called IGNITE. He sells CBD oil. I personally do think cbd has helped me. Try going to sprouts if you have one in your town they always have some good natural anxiety remedies. There are many other websites you can order CBD off of though. I would just look at the reviews and see what they say. And the dose just really depends. I’d start at 10mg and work your way up. It won’t do anything to you if you take way more than that say you took 50mg but this is how I look at it. If one ibuprofen helps your headache. Than why take three. So try 10mg and if that dosent work you can always do more! People can take different doses for different things.

Thank you for your response. I have a 1000MG oil but I don't really feel the effects of it. I don't know if I'm not taking enough. But I really just want to figure it out. Am I suppose to take it more than once a day?

I normally would just take it in the morning. Although you have 1000mg cbd oil that dosent mean you’re getting 1000mg per serving. Does it say the serving size on the back?

Please see me reply below. I meant to include that you won’t necessarily “feel the effects” right away. It does not get you high. Most CBD/hemp oils only have around a .03% THC level so they can be legal in all 50 states. But rest assured within about a week you will feel it. I recommend taking it before bed time as it can make you drowsy until you are used to how it makes your body and mind feel.

I started getting panic attacks in July and CBD has been a lifesaver! I use the brand Charlottes Web. If you go on their site it has a store locator. If that’s not available near you, the brand Ananda Professionals is excellent as well, and you can order either brand online as well. The box of what you have should have how many mg/mL on the back. For example, 28mg in two dropperfuls (1mL). If you send me a picture I can help you with dosing. Also, I’m not a doctor so I can’t tell you to take or not take the Zoloft, but I had a very bad reaction in September when I tried it. However, I was on it for five years prior to that with no problem at all. Our body chemistry changes over time. Nothing to be afraid of. If your doctor has prescribed it to you, he/she has decided the benefits outweigh the risks. However, there are doctors that can do genetic testing to see which medication is going to work for you and not hurt you. I recommend you look into that. I hope you get to feeling better soon. The CBD was all I needed for SEVERE panic attacks. <3

Hi, I have been using CBD oil approx. 4 months, initially I was just using to see if it helped with arthritis, which it did, but I stopped using it for a week or so but then read it could help with my anxiety, so I started taking again daily at regular 500mg strength dose. It does help, I still take Sertraline and since I started with the CBD oil, I don’t have as many side effects, such as feeling spaced out, I have tried a few, Holland & Barret, there are lots online, some will send you sample if you ask and some have helpline, I like to see that there is a lab report on the oil and make sure it is full spectrum. I am using one called Treefer CBD oil, It comes in a dropper bottle and I take 3/4 drops under my tongue, it is natural flavour, I take it in the morning and it definitely works for me.
