Has anyone tried CBD oil for anxiety?

I've been researching ways to deal with my anxiety which has me staying home most days and my life has been impacted with so much anxiety. The cbd oil and other cbd edibles have a smaller % of the the. So many times the psych meds don't work for long.or the side effects are difficult. So I'm thinking of trying this. I'm new to this so if anyone can help please message me. Yes, I'm in CA and have a 215 card. Thanks friends.

I've never tried the oil. But I know that smoking a very small amount helps me sleep. However that isn't a possibility for me because it's illegal where I'm at.

Don't know about the oil but, will say that the regular form did increase my paranoia in college many years ago.

Writing it out is important. I will say this. No matter what you try, if it works, great. If not, keep track of what it does do, and then that will give you ideas to try that might make it work. I know for me, taking the first step (every single morning) is hard, however, I do my relax exercise, sip some water, and go for it. Best wishes!

Been researching a lot about cbd oil, and most all reports are very very promising. My daughter's bf uses it religiously and swears by it. The no thc oil is a great alternative for me since smoking weed makes me have a panic attack every time i have tried it.
The healing benefits of the plant without the "high" will skyrocket this product in the near future.
The only downside from my research is that for now it is a little expensive. As more and more studying is done, it should be more available, and hopefully less expensive and on the rx list everywhere for drs to perscribe and insurances to cover. Soon as big pharma realizes they can make money on it...they will welcome it with open arms!

That oil would be a great idea. Certain weed helps me relax and thise strains are high in CBD compared to THC. I would def try it!

    Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job.  It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it.  Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown.  There was a full length mirror in the changing room.  I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like.  It was a reality check.
