Natural and good are not synonymous. So, just because something is “natural” doesn’t mean it’s a preferred or better form of treatment. That being said, people’s experience with weed varies. For many people, it tends to exacerbate their symptoms. Myself included. There’s no way of knowing if you’ll be impacted similarly. But proceed with caution if you’re considering it. It’s fine to be cautious about drugs that are addictive as well. So, it’s reasonable to have apprehensions about using benzodiazepines. But, the best person to work that out with is your doctor, not any of us online.

I got my med card specifically for anxiety and weed ended up making my OCD so much worse. Really really bad obsessions with the possibility of developing schizophrenia, really paranoid that once I got high I would get “stuck” and never regain control of my mind. Everyone’s experience is different tho!! CBD didn’t make it worse but it didn’t help a ton either

Yes I take a full spectrum CBD when my anxiety is bad and it REALLY helps. I get mine from Biomdplus it's such a good brand.

I don’t recommend weed, it increases my paranoia aka makes my anxiety skyrocket. Everyone is different, but I don’t recommend at all. CBD however has been wonderful, especially for sleeping!

Yeah I definitely don’t need my paranoia increased right now. Just need something to calm me down. I tried CBD tinctures like two weeks after my OCD started (started July) and if I remember correctly it did calm me down some. I should have kept using it lol

@kej25 Lol yeah that’s the thing with CBD, is you have to use it regularly to feel the full benefits. I like to vape it! It’s easy and instantly relaxes me.

I’ve been taking full spectrum CBD gummies and it helped with general anxiety when I had the OCD under control. Now that the OCD is out of control, I’m at a really bad point to where I’m not leaving the house, the CBD has no effect whatsoever on me. I almost wonder if it possibly caused my downward spiral somehow....

I quit smoking weed like 2 months ago because I noticed it was making my anxiety worse. I actually smoked last night to see what would happen and I ended up feeling really anxious lol I don’t want to make it seem like weed is bad because when I first started smoking weed like 5 years ago, it was amazing for me. It helped me out tremendously, I just feel like it’s no longer serving that role for me.

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?
