Another CBD thread

does anyone take CBD for their anxiety or other ailments? My pdoc shot down the idea of me taking CBD, but I’m interested in getting a second opinion (read: I’m switching pdocs soon). I still plan on taking my meds, but I was wondering if anyone took CBD in conjunction with their main anti-psychotic meds? I might take CBD in place of ativan, which I really don’t like taking.

CBD might calm you down, but it’s nothing like an Ativan.

It works on the endocannabinoid system (I dont really know how though)

I guess I’m just looking for an alternative to ativan. Might still take it, though.

I just don’t like the thought of possibly getting hooked on ativan, or any other benzo

cbd is great but its just relaxing and, like @Mr.Dre said nothing like benzos, i just consumed 500 mg cbd in the form of flower so probably some thc too, i feel calm relaxed and still get my anxious thoughts they just dont affect me as much, with benzos i feel like anxious thoughts dont even come out, also im feeling a little buzzed right now so flower probably isnt the best choice if you want to feel anxiety free and completely normal because the thc can give a little buzz, i might would try it in isolate form if you are sensitive to thc

yeah I was just gonna do some CBD gummies or pills. The CBD hemp flower seems a little strong, even though I am interested in trying it. Hopefully I can handle a little buzz, if there is one :nerd_face:

welp, just ordered some low dose CBD gummies. We’ll see how they are…

I don’t like CBD. I think it’s a waste of money. Made me anxious and tired.

I’m hoping it can do the opposite of what it did to you – get rid of anxiety. I’ve read up on it, and i’ve gathered generally good things. But everyone is different so we’ll see

the CBD instantly took my anxiety away. I am calm and relaxed now. Can’t believe it took me this long to get a hold of it.

Or it could be a placebo effect lol. Either way, I feel better.
