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 would just like to share this and get feedback if I can. I have used CBD oil and also have my Medical marijuana card. I decided to purchase CBD oil on line and on the recommendation from this site and CBD users support site I purchased Nuleaf Naturals. I researched and found this a good place to purchase. I ordered CBD oil. The label was informative. I took about 1/4 dropped full when I first received it and I was able to sleep much better than I had. The second and third time after falling asleep I woke up and my body felt like it was on fire inside and was also sweating. It was just not a good night or two. I have used CBD oil previously so I don't think there is a reaction to CBD. It could be that I am not feeling well right night, it is the 1st Christmas without my husband and this was the time he started getting ill and died from cancer on Jan. 7, 2018. I know I am very emotional and it which triggers a fibromyalcia severe pain. I really don't think this is about the CBD, but just asking if anyone experienced problems with sleep and body heat after using a high product CBD.

Cbd works with the endocannioboid system. When the receptors are blocked the cbd opens up all these receptors that is why people are having such wonderful results with cbd.

I have worked in alternative health for many years and I am thinking it could be a detox as the body is healing. I haven’t found any research about this yet.

@summertime4 First, my condolences again for the loss of your husband. We know there are triggers after the passing of a loved one: certain dates, or smells, or events, people we meet, etc. I agree with you it may be a combination of so many things, and the fibro flare might be the root cause. That often happens to me, and if the CBD oil is taken too early in the day I don't get the benefits of more restful sleep. Sleep disruptions due to sudden body temperature spikes or muscle cramping, have plagued me for decades. Hope this helps you, hope you get support here.

Not sure what that means? Why would so many receptors be blocked, and by what? Too much chocolate?

Seems to be some people perhaps have a long lost memory of marijuana/cannabis as being illegal and causing all sorts of issues during the early days of the drug wars. I know this is the case in my community where many older seniors reside and they still fight the marijuana war. For example, our community of 125 houses is near a light industrial area. Within a mile, was a warehouse that applied to be a pot distribution center. One of the more aggressive and vocal seniors and board members of the hoa association spread a petition stopping this new business to form near us. And it was stopped. Of course, it just went to the other side of the city. (Nevada). They say new ideas succeed as the older folks die off. Might be some truth there.

@cdcc- Is there a particular group that you favor? I think that I am going to look on line for a source. I think that my local one is expensive. Any other advice?

Hi, At this time I am using Lazarus CBD oil, and hemp bomb gummies which I order both on line. They are a little pricey but worth it. Prescription drugs can be expensive so to me it’s well worth it. If you need any more info just send me a note
