How CBD helped with my Anxiety
Hello Beautiful Souls! I am so happy to share my experience with CBD. For the past couple of weeks, I was secretly trying CBD. I wanted to see the full effects before I shared my results.
Now I know when we say marijuana you are probably assuming I am getting high as a kite, but CBD is not that!
Early this year my anxiety was getting worse. I wasn’t sure what was going on but I was overwhelmed. I felt random panic anxiety happening right before I slept. I knew I needed to change something so I started researching CBD.
WHAT IS CBD?
“Cannabidiol, most often referred to as simply “CBD”, is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid compound found in the marijuana flower. Since it doesn’t contain the mind-altering effects of THC, scientists are studying it heavily for its reputed health effects.
If your anxiety is stemming from a repeated memory or fear of a particular situation, CBD can help your brain to stop searching for and “picking up” that memory. Now, this doesn’t mean it’s erasing that memory. Instead, it’s just helping your mind to let it go so the anxiety doesn’t interfere with your day. (5)
CBD can also help reduce the physical symptoms of anxiety, such as an increased heart rate. It helps with you feeling calm, lessened anxiety reduced inflammations, and healthier sleep cycles.”
I tried both ways of taking CBD. I smoked it and used the oil. I must admit I did feel like a bad a** smoking CBD. haha. However in my opinion, because I am a runner I didn’t like the taste of the smoke. The oil on the other hand was light and almost tasteless. Both have the same effect.
HOW DID I FEEL?
I tried Lily Hills CBD Flower - Special Sauce and Lily Hills Full Spectrum CBD Oil- 1000MG (Mint). I would use either one before I go to sleep to help unwind. The effects are almost instantly. It felt as though the tension was being released from my body. I really enjoyed the CBD oil the most because the mint flavor tastes great. I would only use CBD when I felt overwhelmed and not every day.
Anxiety is a tough problem to overcome and sometimes figuring out the cause root will take some time. However, finding a routine that helps release as much tension as you can definitely help you find calm. I am glad I gave CBD a try.
You should definitely check out LILY HILLS for high-quality CBD. They grow their own hemp on a beautiful, organic farm in Vermont.
I hope this information helps you understand CBD a little better! Will try it!? Let me know your thoughts down below.
