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

@cdcc if my calculations are right they are less expensive than in RI. Probably because our administration charges very high taxes. I'll look into it more. Did you ever use any other cbd oil?

I also use Charlottes Web Hemp oil, which works good but I think I do better with the CBD oil and the gummies
