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

@brightwings- What I don't understand is the dosing because it varies so much. At first I went to my local compassion center. They recommended 10 mg doses so that's what I had been taking- then I switched to Charlotte's Web because it was 1/2 the price and went up to 11mg. I think that I need to increase it. THC makes me jittery but I was wondering if I combined a very low dose with cbd it might be more effective? What do you think?

Welcome Karen, I like your quest for health. Good for you. I am an empath and feel we have traveled the same paths of looking for answers and solutions to our health concerns. Never give up, the journey is worth it.
I have had 19 surgeries in my life and many life crippling events. One foot in front of the other gets you a long way. I humbly share I am an example of that.
.
So dosage and how to apply: hmmm, there are so many different types of CBD and methods of application out there.
.
Above all, trust your gut.....
.
I started out last summer at 50 mg a day after learning about it. I realized it helped. I felt better. So month by month, as finances allowed, I increased the amount of CBD in the bottle. I tried many different brands and costs. I gradually settled on Lazarus Naturals. I was getting CBD in coconut oil, 1200 mg for 50 bucks. That's the highest concentration I could find for the money.
So in December, I finally found the dosage that seemed to be the best for me. 25 mg three times a day. 25 mg 3xs a day.
I am correcting a previous post here. I wrote 50 mg 3 x's a day before. That is not correct as I was only taking 1/2 tsp each time. 50 mg per teaspoon is the concentration.

But start out somewhere and gradually increase it until you have a feeling of wellbeing. Only you know what that is for you. Stay at one level for a week or so and evaluate the changes. Your guts will tell you what to do.
.
Now as far as the AR, rub the CBD into the painful joints as needed. You will be glad you did. There are different products made for this kind of application. Or make your own by putting CBD liquid in coconut oil and rubbing that on. I am not a medical professional....just saying...
You have a strong spirit in you and it will take you far, both uphill and down....don't settle for bed. The fight is so worth it. You will be glad you did.
Smiling at you, keep coming back. I sense the wisdom in you. Bright Wings

I heard you loud and clear you are in bed. I spent 4 years in bed....don't want to do it again. Today, I'm planning on buying a kite, no 2 of them cuz flying kites is so much more fun with another. The moments of joy I get from flying the kites is so fulfilling, cuz I send myself up to ride the kite, even if only in my mind.

When I have challenges, I fight to take my life back, sometimes minute by minute, but today I live a victorious life.
Attitude is everything.

Oh, Merry, smiling gently at you....darling those dosages are for regular folks...10 mg...you and I and many, many others have had so many more challenges and will continue to face ongoing challenges, often daily.
So our CBD needs are greater than the norm. It is what it is, right?
How much are you taking today? What's the plan. What do you have on hand?

I am a mom of two kids. You know that being a mom is the toughest job. Everyday routine makes me extremely tired and sometimes I feel great stress at the end of the day. My sister recommended using hemp oil as a natural stress relief remedy. I googled and found a great variety of hemp oils and I do not know which is the best to me. I see that there is 500mg, 800mg, 1000mg, 1500 mg, 2000 mg .....hemp oils. What's the difference? Which one should I take against stress and anxiety?
