I was thinking I written your name before. I clicked on your name and read your first posts.
Wow, you have been making progress. What a change in the imprinted feelings as I read. What happened, did you win the lottery or something? I feel joy and more youth in you.
Hoping you share some of your good things here too.

You cannot buy CBD oil in my state, but I know people order it off of the internet. How did you use it? Someone mentioned edibles... please explain.... thanks

@danalee5

I meant if you were taking it other than the doctor prescribed it and in higher doses or recreationally to get high in higher doses than prescribed and perhaps not using it consistently at a regular dose.
It’s not possible as I understand it using this drug to get a high but people still try. Some mix alcohol with it others are inconsistent in the way they take it. Technically not a drug of abuse people do become psychologically dependent on it and thereby abuse it.

Thank you

@brightwings. Thanks for your response. This really is a community of support. We know what we are dealing with and can understand the challenges.
I am taking turmeric with bioperine, 4 capsules a day. (2 in the am and 2 in the pm.
Dosage amounts to 2000mg. I have had no adverse reaction to the turmeric. It helps with anxiety significantly,and it also helps with arthritis in my hands.
I have a very good doctor who prescribes lower doses of Effexor as I taper down.I am down to 150 mg now.
I like taking the same dose every day rather t than skipping a day.

CBD oil is expensive Got a bill for $ 80.00 Thats Over my limit
