Is CBD oil safe?

I am going to probably start using CBD for my anxiety. Do you guys think this is safe to use? Will there be anti Androgen properties like with marijuana?

CBD seems promising for neuroprotection, insomnia, anxiety, and relaxation but I don’t need any more issues either.

Also, I have a theory that CBD + Cialis + Sage may be the future treatment protocol.

I’m a daily user of THC and CBD and I can tell you for me at least that it does not hinder nor help my condition.

Doesn’t even help with anxiety and insomnia? I’m not expecting sexual improvement from it

I vaped CBD for some time, made me more chill. Idk if it is safe or not but my condition didn’t worsened on it.

It might help with those. I’d like to say a lot of my social anxiety is lessened when I’ve tried cbd.

I take CBD in the form of vaping. I’m not sure how effective CBD Oil is in non-muscular uses. But it helps take the edge of anxiety/depression! Apparently, it’s really hard to distill 100% of the THC out of marijuana, so more likely than not, you’re also getting THC with your CBD.

I believe CBD oil is 100% safe for our condition. I am currently using the strongest Charlottes Web CBD oil (it’s the most potent oil I could find) and it helps my brain fog, sleep and anxiety. Definitely recommend trying it.

Do you use Stanley Brothers Charlotte’s Web? I just started using it and it may have helped with anxiety, but have to test it more

Yes the effects are subtle but it seems to compound, I am taking it about 5-6 drops every 4-6 hours throughout the day and it seems to keep me in a nice mood all day.

I’m going to give the oil a go got some from Holland and Barrett this afternoon. I’ve tried sage previously and like most things I got improvements followed by a crash - cheers

I’ve had to ditch the oil after a couple of days due to it aggravating my symptoms. Nothing seems to work for me and my baseline is very poor which is what brings the desperation

I had an initial improvement in mood and thinking which is not unusual for me on the back of a different herbal strategy. Then I became irritable rather than sad, the negative thinking and tinnitus volume ramped up. I had night sweats and got up with a very low mood this morning accompanied by suicidal thoughts. Unexpectedadly I noticed my eyes were very clear and sparkling - as the morning progressed things improved slightly, I then went to the gym & after a few sets my muscles became pumped. Very strange that hasn’t been the case for a longtime! PFS has no logic or reason making it very difficult to pin point the reaction. Anyone else had thus when trying different stuff?

After an increase in symptoms taking CBD oil for three days I stopped it. Fast forward a few weeks and following a few very low number of days I decided to give the oil another go yesterday. As the day progressed my mood improved and over thinking reduced. I slept a total of 6 hours whilst wakening once only. I also felt unusually tired this morning. All promising signs. On the negative side my skin dryness, pins and needles, urination and cravings all increased. Overall a price I’m willing to pay. Going forward I’m going to take the oil every few days to see if this works better for me. Three times a day proved too much for me causing the crash. Hopefully the new approach will bring overall benefits. Fingers crossed. Been here many times with other strategies, the difference being I don’t seem to have developed a resistance to this one. Might be worth a try for others who have had a crash on the back of this. Cheers guys

That’s great news mate! 6 hours is good news around here, I know you’ve struggled with sleep for ages now, it must feel good to get a result like that.

When my sleep started improving, one of the big differences was waking up feeling tired, as I’d previously wake up wide awake.

Hopefully this will be the start of something good for you. Best of luck to you!

I don’t know if it’s safe.

Take the doses given to mice in that study and divide by 12.3 for the human equivalent.

Post the initial benefits I’ve worsened 1 hr sleep last night and crushing anxiety for the majority of today. No free lunches with PFS
