Hi WatermelonGlitter, I don't know if you'll see this message now but I've just been searching through old posts and come across this. I wondered if you ever tried CBD oil in the end? I've been contemplating it too recently for the same reasons! Hope all well with you.

I've been wondering about this too. I'm at such a low point. It doesn't sound like it would do much good though according to @thelionsden. Tbh I suspect there's a lot of unsubstantiated hype about it.

There is a huge support group with LOADS of information about it on Facebook.

I'm on holiday in California and passed a guy at the side of the road that read 'CBD oil cured my cancer'. Didn't stop to ask him the details but it didn't help a family members depression

I’ve tried the sublingual drops. If you find the right dosage for you it does work quite instantly for anxiety relief. I’ve been patchy using it but planning to use it more regularly. I think you have to use it over a week or so so it’s in your system to start working. Lots of people swear by it.

Also supposed to be quite good as a muscle relaxant. I've used it and honestly don't know whether it works or not. Sometimes I think it does, I sleep and have weird dreams.

What you buy - as opposed to what might be prescribed by a doctor - is not very strong stuff.
