The fight against cannabis is lost and it is only a matter of time before the drug companies and their stooges are beaten and we can all benefit from cannabis free of sanction and stigmatization.

Glad things are going good for you, long may it last. I tried CBD and got little to no benefit however cannabis itself has been fantastic, and has much less dangerous side-effects than some I have been prescribed, (yes Mirapexin - I'm looking at you).

I have tried 3 different CBD oil without the THC as its illegal here in the UK, none of them worked for me.

I just finished using Canchew pharmaceutical grade cbd infused chewing gum manufactured by Axim Biologicals, a pharma company carrying out trials of their gum with both CBD oil and a drug such as gabapentin. Currently you can buy just the CBD infused gum online, 30 pieces with 10mg of CBD per piece for around $50-70 dollars. I started with one 10mg piece an hour before bedtime along with 300 mg prescription gabapentin. While I fell asleep faster and slept 4 hours instead of the usual 2 before waking with RLS symptoms, when I did awake I felt very anxious and had to immediately get up and exercise and have a cup of coffee before calming down. Next I tried two pieces, 20mg starting two hours before bedtime, again with the gabapentin. Slept 3 hours very deeply but again awoke feeling anxious and uncomfortable. Waiting to talk to my doc before trying again. I'm wondering if the sweetners xilitol, sorbitol and manitol are causing the anxiety as I have not read of CBD doing this.

I live in Arizona where CBD is legal. I have not tried it yet but my medication Requip is not very effective anymore after being on it for 13 years. What dose do you use of CBD and what form do you use.... I can get oil, candy, etc. I don't know what to buy.

Thank you for any information.
