Cbd oil and Gummies
I was just wondering about people's thoughts and experiences with cbd oil. Was it positive or negative? Any benefits or things to look out for? Recommendations on research and getting more information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

It seems to help, not eliminate, the pain within 15 minutes or so.

(14,975 posts)Tommy Chong's Good Vibes/Nice Dreams combo. It comes with a money back guarantee, so there's really no risk. Just save the bottles. His page reads a bit like an infomercial, but I'm happy with the product. It's a liquid that you put under your tongue until you have to swallow it. And it tastes good.
I'm sleeping better and have more energy during the day. The improvement was gradual, but it's definitely noticeable now.

I sleep much more soundly if I have 1 or 2 during the day.

(37,354 posts)Due to draconian opiates laws in Michigan, my pain meds were reduced in such a way that instead of a 2 out of 10 on the pain scale, I am at a constant 4 out of 10--quite annoying. My PA at the pain clinic suggested trying CBD and gave me a 50% off coupon for a company they work with. My pain was knocked down to a 2.5-3, which is great.
As far as my mood goes, the CBD is very relaxing. Since the THC is eliminated, the "high" is missing, but a feeling of well-being is definitely there. I don't suffer from anxiety, but if I did, I feel that CBD would really help. My experience with it is definitely positive.

It gets a bad rap. My general well-being has improved significantly on a combination of medical MJ and Modafinil (which I went on in Dec 2024).
I would have preferred Adderall or Ritalin at a low dose in conjunction with MJ for concentration issues. This however is the best approximation I found.
I dont really like CBD oil as much. I prefer it in capsule form. Far easier to down.
Among other things, this combination has helped me kick alcohol ( a known carcinogen) entirely.
I lost my mom to cancer in 2021 and that was hard. I was fortunate enough to get a medical MJ prescription in 2022 which has helped me avoid alcohol entirely.
I have recently also dialed down my phone and media use a lot. So I feel more optimistic about my health overall.
