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 can only speak for myself here. I've been using the CBD since last summer or earlier.
When I find I have extra anxiety, I take an extra dose thru the day. It works for me.......Bright Wings...

Hi - many of you have talked about your depression and anxiety over time and CBD oil or other remedies you've tried in this discussion, so wanted to check in to see how you all are doing. I think your responses will be helpful to many members here.

@wigreenthumb - how is your anxiety these last couple days?

@tdib - how are your anxiety and depression? Are you feeling as though they are under control, or not so much?

@granny55 - is your anxiety level changing as you have started on your new medication?

@granny55 - word of mouth, comments on-line. If there's a comassiy center near you that would be a good place.
