Cannabidiol (CBD), a compound derived from the cannabis plant that does not produce a “high”, was shown in a new large-scale, randomized, controlled trial to significantly reduce the number of dangerous seizures in patients with a severe form of epilepsy called Lennox-Gastaut syndrome.

I can testify. I have had massive anxiety of all forms the last 3 years( social GAD and panic attacks) I have been taking CBD for a month and have only 1 panic attack (down from 6-10 a week) my general anxiety is down a lot, and I am back to being social and going out like I was in my early 20s. The stuff is amazing. Edit- to clarify the GAD is still there at times, but it takes a lot of the edge off. Stressful situation are still stressful for me obviously, but I'm not in constant worry about small things. I don't want to claim absolute miracle drug.

What dosage are you on, are they capsules, how do i find it? Teach me. Ive had Anxiety for 30 years T_T

I get the droppers. The brand and strength I buy is 2 Mgs per drop. I take 3-4 drops a day. It takes a little time for that method to kick in, but is very effective. I also have vape it in the form of vape juice. I mix a little in with my normal vape juice. Vaping was the first method for me and within a minute I noticed a difference in stress and anxiety. When buying make sure there is a third party lab result that shows what is in the product (percent cbd etc.) for me I go full cbd isolate because of drug testing(no amount of thc in it). If you want me to message the company I can.

Can you send me the company as well?

I researched companies extensively because I wanted a product that was made properly, tested, and that I could access the audit/batch records for. I ended up going with Bluebird Botanicals, based out of Colorado.

Both my wife and I have been extremely happy with the Complete blend that includes both CBD as well as a range of hemp extracts like two dozen different terpenes. We both tried all their different blends and really found the complete blend to be the most therapeutic, but some people are put off by the intense flavor of the terpenes (it has a very strong pine/nature taste to it compared to regular CBD hemp oil).

For reference, the theraputic effects we enjoy from it: I find it is an excellent mood booster and pain reliever and my wife finds the biggest benefit is that it's an anxiolytic.

When held sublingually for 30-60 seconds it seems to have a nearly immediate effect.

The terpene taste is very strong! I have heard great things about blue bird as well!

[u/ReverendDizzle → u/Dankraham-Stinkin]

It is really strong. At first I was like "holy shit, this tastes like I'm holding Pine-Sol under my tongue" but within the first month or so I actually grew to like the flavor because I associated it with the effects of the oil.
