Before my state legalized, they had a very narrow list of qualified conditions for medical and they were considering adding OCD-- I overcame all my anxiety about it and actually wrote a letter about how much it helped me...they didn't approve it but now they've both taken away the list so you can qualify for anything with a drs approval and it's legal-- it literally has helped me sometimes more then medication. (I still take medication/go to therapy) but I'm so glad it has helped you! Like literally. <3

I am considering trying CBD aswell. I’m curious as to how you take it, when and how often? Very glad that it’s working for you. Best wishes

Just within the 1.5 hours my heart rate is down, i don’t even care about anything .. I don’t want to cry or kill/hurt myself , no nervousness, no more going to the crisis center or calling the hotline, I wanna scream and cry cuz I’m so happy ..... I have an appetite too ??????... I would’ve been a mess like last week if I did not have this. I just hope my therapist can see the difference.. I hope this can last for a while like this. I’m trying to embrace it , but it’s almost like I’m living a dream. I never thought this is how it would be. I was suffering so much I could not bare to live like that anymore ...and I would not be around for that much longer if it kept going the way it did !!! ❤️

Do you think that I can still do the intense work with therpay? That it will be easier now that I don’t have the anxiety to worry about?

Do it. I’ve been so many pharmacial pills (17) and everything was worse. I only take it in the Am and 0.5 mg at 500 strength, there is 300,500,&1000. In the oil wise. There is other but this works the quickest . I haven’t taken any since since am and it’s been 13 hours and no anxiety still ☺️.. it’s wonderful I can actually breathe.

How has your life changed with medication?
For those who have had success with medication for OCD/anxiety, how is your life different now compared to before starting medication?

Medication
At this point I feel like I need to get on something ASAP. I know that therapy is a long road and hard work and I am totally down to do it but in the short term (I just started this journey) I think I need pharmaceutical help. Some of the people closest to me agree. I have never been on meds before and it's scary AF but the road I am going down is scarier. Advice?

Thinking of trying therapy
I’m considering trying therapy through nocd. This is too heavy for me to try and hold in anymore. I had a really bad night last night. I don’t want to use my mom’s insurance so I’d be self pay. Has anyone tried and is it worth it in your opinion? I’m afraid this is starting to affect my relationship and even my job+ feels more debilitating than ever. I think it might be time I’m also so shy. I wish I could do text therapy rather than phone visit 😫 any advice? I’m sure it’s not as bad as I imagine it’ll be. If anything I’ll bet it’s nice and I won’t feel the need to hold back. I’m also not diagnosed yet, has anyone gotten a diagnosis from doing therapy this way?
