I heard cbd doesn’t work for ocd
I recently started taking cbd for anxiety. I started with a more hemp based product from American Shaman with mild results. I noticed some positive like increased sleep and improved mood, not to mention less anxiety but wasn’t sure if it was placebo. I used the 300mg water soluble solution from American Shaman. That however did not address my acute anxiety, so I got a vape pen with a Ratio of 20 to 1 and that cbd to thc and I love what it does for my immediate anxiety. It doesn’t make me groggy. I’m focused and calm and if I have an intrusive thought, I’m better able to process it. I also recently bought a tincture from Americaana which is 20 to 1 ratio and it also calms me down and allows me to process my thoughts from a calmer place. I hope this helps.
Cbd works wonders for me!! Helps control my intrusive thoughts. My general anxiety is lower. And my depression is completely controlled. I started with - 30:1 CBD THC but now I only take that in the morning and at night to help me sleep I take 1:1 CBD THC
I don’t have a lot of experience with CBD but I have my medical card and it really controlled a lot of my big intrusive thoughts and obsessions. I still have some compulsions and bad days too but I like to use a high thc sativa (which some people say makes them more paranoid but idk it’s different for me-I think it depends on your opinion on it and environment) and I think and write or meditate and I’ll basically talk myself through my fears that I am too afraid to say aloud to a therapist. It’s like a therapy session for me. I think about life and what is really important and I’m just really compassionate towards myself instead of critical. My mind is only focused on the present moment and what’s in front of me. I’m not obsessing over past things or worrying about future “what if’s”. It also helps with any irritability that anxiety causes and takes away the dark cloudy feeling if I’m depressed so I can actually enjoy the people around me or whatever I’m doing. Also gives me an appetite. Sativas are generally uplifting and stimulating on the mind. I like indicas for insomnia, restlessness/nighttime use.
Has anyone heard or tried using medical marijuana? I have been using the meds the doctor gave me and up and up the doses but still feeling the same, i was looking into other meds and options and saw articles saying it helped people with ocd. I’m thinking of going to my doctor to see what he thinks, but wanted to know if anyone on here has tried it?
I was wondering if anyone uses medical marijuana or CBD oil and what your experiences are like?
Has anyone used any kind of cannabis for ocd. I tried it a couple of times and it just made my anxiety worse (I'm told it's the thc). Any info will be appreciated.
