Does CBD oil help you with your depression and/or anxiety?

Posted by lalyfa @lalyfa, Feb 24, 2018

I am curious to know if anyone has had success with CBD or Hemp oil helping with depression/anxiety? I’ve been reading a lot about it and am curious.
I've been reading about this and am very interested but would like thoughts/opinions from anyone who has actually tried it or knows someone who has. TIA

Thank you,
Laura

I should receive my cbd oil tomorrow and it can’t get here soon enough! I can’t wait to give it a try and am hoping for great results! I am now 5 weeks Effexor free and my withdrawals are getting much better. Dizziness seems to be minimal now but still have “fuzzy” brain often. Emotions and agitation are terrible! I’m wondering if anyone uses the cbd while taking anti-depressants?

How much CBD oil do you take daily, please (realizing everyone is different body chemistry)? Isn't it very expensive? Thanks!

Hi I bought Green Garden Gold 1000mg hemp extract and I take about 5-7 drops and unfortunately I have not seen any difference. I paid around $90 for this and I think that is quite expensive especially since I haven't seen any changes with it.

@stressedmesseddepressed I haven’t received it yet so haven’t started taking it. I bought a bottle of 100mg for $25. Thought I’d start low with a drop or two per day.

@doxyjune Oh no. I know it doesn’t help everyone but I want to try it before giving in to going back on anti-depressants.

Thank you but that's the part I'm not sure of, dosage. This article says, for Depression, take 25 - 50 mg a day and that means a 100 mg bottle, at that dosage, would last only 2 -4 days. That's expensive! Maybe 25 - 50 mg is way too much, I don't know. I guess we need to go by how we feel with it and ask around reliable sources what they say. Thank you! Oh and this is a good company, too, I've heard very high grade CBD oil. May we all feel well and soon.

Hi I bought it cause I read that it helped many people - so please don't go by me. I seem to be drug resistant, meaning I have to take a ton of meds for them to work --- so it may work well for you. Good luck and let me know how you feel, if it helps you at all. Perhaps I didn't buy from a good company. (you just have no idea when you are doing this cold ) - I did buy some gummies and they may have done something to lower my anxiety - so who knows?

I'm like you in that I, too, am pretty drug-resistant and def plan to use CBD oil. Used it once so far but have to use it regularly. I'm optimistic that it will help. TY

Okay I just called this really considered great/best CBD oil company (I have no affiliation with it except as a customer) and the nice woman gave me LOTS of valuable info. Summarizing, you get the same benefits as with Marijuana but no THC, they suggest 3 drops a day to start. Their 550 CBD oil bottle is $80, a lot but that can last a month. I don't know yet how my body will react or how much I need but hope that 550 mg bottle is enough for a month. Thanks.!!

Hello everyone..
I am totally unknowledgeable when it comes to legal marijuana as far as how it effects you etc..i did experiment for a time with the illegal stuff way back when but have absolutely no real knowedge of this herb used medicinally except the litte i hear here and there. I did find a few “licensed pot doctors” here in New York who supposedely paid in the hundreds of thousands of dollars to obtain those credientials to administer governnment cards to buy it and charge up to $350 per visit to get. Ive also heard the tch which gets you high is removed so you are only using the herb or medicine. If your state has stores that sell it do you need a governmment card? I am liking the sound of the living water used for anxiety and pain but am alittle skeptical about the whole thing and where to buy it.. im sure the good ole fda is having a hissy fit if what they say is true will replace alot of the crap they try to get you on that is ALMOST next to impossible to get off! Any input would be appreciated
Thanks
Alaine

It's legal here in Oregon

Annual doctor visit is $200+
State card is $200 annually
Tax is very high, as are the prices at the weed stores. I can't afford it.
