Warm Greetings to everyone,

Was wondering if anyone is currently using or have tried CDB oil? I am just in the early stages of research to see if has shown any effectiveness calming racing brain activity. I have checked with my psychiatrist who said that it would be worth a try. There are times when my task oriented thoughts come in rapid succession and I consider each task worth action. The other morning I went from task to task for three hours until I was able to take a breath, exhausting to say the least. My reasoning for taking immediate action of each thought that pops into my head is that I deem it important and I fear that if I don't act on it right away, I will forget.

Any input would be greatly appreciated,

Christian Wolff

I haven't used it, but my psychiatrist brought this up as an option worth investigating. I'm going to talk to her next time I see her (July 8th, I think), so I'm curious to see what others have to say as well.

I’ve been using it for a couple of weeks now. Started out at a low (.5 ml) dose 1-3 hours before bedtime; have now increased to .75. I take a typically high dose of an SSRI. My wife and daughter tell me that my mood has improved, although it’s hard for me to tell. It doesn’t seem to have any adverse side effects—maybe a little more sleepiness. I’m going to keep taking it and perhaps increase the dose to 1 ml soon. I know that there’s at least one or two SSRI’s with which CBD should not be taken; ask your doctor or a knowledgeable pharmacist.
