I found the research on CBD counteracting THC interesting. It makes me think that maybe that's why CBD became so popular as an anti anxiety treatment. After all CBD originally became popular amongst stoners so maybe they we're just counteracting the anxiety they were having from smoking weed.
I only use Dr. Hemp Me 10% CBD oil for anxiety and it works amazingly well. One thing to remember when trying CBD oil for anxiety is CBD is biphasic meaning, low doses and high doses provide completely different effects. Always start low with CBD as too much may actually exacerbate the condition.
Excellent work — especially on the practical issues. I do, however, think you are underselling the public speaking tests. I was struck by the one study that had a group taking Valium. In that study, CBD reduced anxiety by roughly the same amount. That's potentially revolutionary considering how quickly the body builds a tolerance to benzodiazepines. As a result of this, I think the case for further studies is even stronger (especially long-term studies to look at the effect of continued use of CBD). As it is, I'm very excited to see what science is done about this in the coming years. Thanks for bringing my attention to it! (Also: there were some pretty funny lines in the video.)
I think any reduction in stress level is important. Stress, Portrait of a Killer – Full Documentary (2008) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYG0ZuTv5rs This is where I met Dr. Robert Sapolsky, look him up, he's from Standford U. He has many lectures on You Tube and yes, he's a real scientist.
Yeah all the studies I've read say that it definitely helps but it isnt a cure all and doesnt mean the moment you take it you'll cure your anxiety 100% for good. But certainly does help and Is a great medical tool and benefit for many people. Decriminalize drugs already

These questions should be answered by clinical trial, not anecdote.
