So I have always had bad anxiety and emotional issues since I'm bipolar and ADHD (and my doctor recently threw in general anxiety disorder in there too), but I have been sick of using all the pills and drugs that honestly just screw you over in long run (i.e. my dad going catatonic when he quit lexapro after 15 years).


CBD oil was only recently legalized in my state, and I had read online how it reduces anxiety, depression, and mood swings. Stores around me started carrying it and so I decided to purchase some and I started taking it daily orally and I bought a separate vial to vape.


Now don't worry Verby it doesn't get me high. I able to function and it actually helps me focus, and control my emotions better. I actually feel more confident and more sure of myself.


I take one to two droppers a day. I prefer taking it in the morning, because it makes my brain very active with thoughts and ideas, but if I have had an emotionally rough day I will take a 2nd dropper in the evening usually 2-3 hours before bed. The dropper is 1 mL, and there is 37mg of concentrated CBD oil per 1 mL.


I have two types of CBD. One that is meant to be put under the tongue, and another one that can be vaped, or put under the tongue. The Vape CBD oil only has about 17mg per 1mL, and it takes sometime to vape that.


The main reason why I bought the vape was to quit smoking, and I've been cigarette free for 3 weeks, and nicotine free for about a week and a half!


The CBD vape helped with the terrible withdraws and mood swings. The mood swings and irritability were the main reasons I always had an issue with quitting smoking.


Honestly, CBD oil is amazing. It helps with emotional control (depression, anxiety, mood swings), inflammation, lowers the risk of diabetes and heart disease, reduces chronic pain, helps with IBS, and a whole heap of other things. I didn't believe it until I started taking it, and I plan on continuing.


Just wanted to share since I know a lot of you on here partake in the devil's lettuce. <3

Would you say its helped you get out of your head?

You started to fight with smoking? Nice.

I heard that weight lifting exercises can be helpful against anxiety. I also know from my body that waking up at the same time and having breakfast gives a lot of energy for the rest of the day.

Thank you!


Yes I tend to wake up around the same time everyday. Even on my days off I don't sleep in just to keep my sleep cycle in check.

CBD is just one of many cannabinoids which have medicinal properties, but the most important thing about CBD is it doesn't get you high.

This is true. It also won't show up on a drug test unless you take 1,000mg a day and that's SUPER excessive. Unless you use it to control seizures

Definitely! I don't have as many depressing thoughts, although my depression is not gone it's just a lot better than it was.

Has anything youve done prior to this helped at all even temporarily?

Yeah I was on vyvanse for a while and it helped with my adhd, anxiety and depression, but it made my mood swings worse and I was a bit of a bitch. I've been on tons of different medications, and I honestly can't remember the name of most of them because I was only on them or a month or two. None of them made me feel any better. They only made things worse. Marijuana would help, but I'd be so stoned out of my mind I wouldn't be able to focus and I would forget things I learned while high if I wasn't high. (Substance memory is a real thing)

Fuck you thc is where it's at
