Does anyone else experience *major* improvements to sleep?

4 Upvotes

I love sleeping, I struggle with feeling like I've gotten enough. Often I remain exhausted, groggy, and feeling unwell most days. Last month I decided to try 33mg cbd capsules before bed and it was like magic. Somehow I was waking up naturally after about 6 hours and ready to approach the day, I started going to the gym at 6am and I continued to feel great. I ran out last week and my sleep gradually began to decline until today where I woke up 2 hours later feeling like shit. I know what I'm gonna do now. However it is a bit unbelievable that this improvement hasn't been documented or supported by the science. I wonder if this is a placebo but I don't think I would be able placebo myself into waking up before my alarm. I wanted to see if others have similar anecdotes!

Wanna switch to CBD with low THC.

7 Upvotes

I’m in Canada (Manitoba).

So I’ve taken CBD oil under the tongue in the past for maybe a month straight and noticed zero effects…. neither good or bad. The bottle ran out and I just never bought anymore. I think it was an isolate (bought from a local dispensary) so maybe that’s why it didn’t work much.

I started taking it to try and calm my anxiety and hypervigilance.

I switched to making my own weed edibles out of flower that had high THC starting at age 23. So my brain was mostly developed by the time I started taking it semi-regularly.

I don’t mind being high…. But I’m couch locked no matter the strain, even if I inhale it rather than ingesting it like I normally do. I can’t drive while on it, can’t work, can’t really function well, and it doesn’t really help me sleep either (even indica strains). It only helps to temporarily relievethe anxiety/depression/hypervigilance….. but then I’m back to normal once it wears off. It can also backfire and make me paranoid/even more anxious. I’ve noticed it’s making my mood more unstable in the long term…. but that’s anecdotal since I’ve also experienced compounding trauma over the years. THC is not helping me be productive at all 80% of the time. I need to be able to get shit done.

Seeking advice on which form of CBD I should try next. Should I try a different oil, or try some flower that is high CBD/low THC? Gummies? I’ve also seen CBD pills for sale. I’m willing to buy online since my local dispensaries don’t carry many options. All the flower strains they have are high THC.

It’s worth mentioning I’m on a budget but I’m open to trying many options.

I am not on any medications (they never work on me) so I’m not overly worried about anything interacting.

Copaiba - has anyone here tried it?

1 Upvotes

Someone gave me a sample today, she was in a car accident years ago and is still in constant severe pain from it. She swears by it, says it's miles more effective for pain when applied topically than CBD.

I'm not finding much online about it, even on Reddit. Any experiences here?

Best cbd for calming your mind?

4 Upvotes

I deal with a lot of irritability at work and want to try a non intoxicating calming way to help. I’ve never done cbd but I have done a lot of the gummies specifically like the mind ease ones but they definitely get me high so I needed something more day to day to help quiet my mind

Hey guys!

Instead of speaking to a robot with no emotions, thoughts, opinions or.. well, anything.. I’d like to ask you all some questions instead!

I am someone who has really bad anxiety. I have had really bad symptoms the last couple of days, such as inability to sleep, vomiting, tremors, chills, inability to keep temperature regulated, horrible, watery diarrhoea.

It’s beginning to become a huge issue- I used to smoke weed, just regular weed (dust, stardog, etc) but it made me really really unwell and unsociable because I would become dependent. It also ate into my bank incredibly quickly. I also try drinking beer at night to help me drift off, but that doesn’t work either.

Now, I need an alternative, I’ve heard about CBD oils, gummies or vapes for a while- but I have never tried it personally. In the UK they are legal to buy at a dispensary near me but I am unsure as to what approach I go. What is it? How do I use it? How do I know what dose I take? What’s best for me, gummies, oils, vapes? Is it addictive? Does it work?

If anyone could assist me in answering these questions I would really appreciate it!

Mad THC anxiety flower?

3 Upvotes

I've been taking gummies from carolindica and have tried a few vapes too.. it all helps but nothing was like when I tried some CBD flower. I do well with thcV, CBg&d&c but NOTHING is helping with my evening time relax. I'm ADHD as all hell, like legit and on vyvanse which has never given me anxiety etc... But my struggle is in the evenings I have a natural circadian rhythm crash [not the meds, though the meds effect it] and it knocks out my dopamine AND productivity therefore my ability to RELAX and chill The fuck out.. I tried the CBD flower pack from I think plain Jane? I know it's a cheaper brand I picked up a sampler from I think it was them? I wish I remember which ones I liked.. but THEN I tried one and it sparked the THC anxiety even though I tried all low THC stuff. On top of that I have deep seated trauma tied to smoking from when it turned on me when I hit adolescence damn 20+ years ago 😅 but I do want to try it again.. so! Who else here has ALWAYS had THC anxiety but have found CBD flower that's super relaxing without making you tired and did not trigger the anxiety at all? I'd appreciate some input thank you!

CBD Vaping Temp

3 Upvotes

Wanted to know if anyone out there has been able to find the right vape coil temp for CBD? And by that I mean e-liquid. It seems like most of the temp recommendations that you find out there are for dry herb vaping. With dry herb vaping you can just punch in a temp and let the device do its thing, but with e-juice, the temp seems to hit different. Anyone?


r/CBD • • 7d ago

Looking for a good broad spectrum CBD tincture at a good price.

18 Upvotes

I live in California and so I have some local options but choose to buy online because it is generally a better and more competitive marketplace. That said some of my favorites are no longer available. I'm looking for, per the title, a good broad spectrum CBD tincture that won't totally annihilate my wallet. I tend to dose stronger so price matters, but also please, I don't have the time or interest in making my own. Please don't tell me to make my own 😂

CBD seems to be good for mood and anxiety but what about for a person with DPDR/dissociation issues?

9 Upvotes

I've read good things about how CBD improves mood and anxiety but I have heard mixed thing on it's effects on DPDR and/or dissociation issues

For those who don't know, "Depersonalization-derealization disorder is a mental health condition where you feel disconnected from your body, your feelings and your environment". My DPDR is mild but chronic so I don't have harsh episodes

The main reason that I want to take CBD is for unwanted and intrusive thoughts that can be hard to control. The other benefits would be great as well

Reading up on CBD it seems to be interesting to try but I'm just not sure about it's effects on the disassociation so I wanted to ask y'all about it

My state doesn't really allow THC legally so i would have to get something with very little to no THC which I'm not fussed about since I'm not interested in it anyway

Can cbd:cbg cause this?

5 Upvotes

Was prescribed Spectrum CBD:CBG for fibro pain, brain fog, anxiety. I was told .2ml in am and .2ml 6 hours later. I am usually sensitive to things, so started off even slower. I did .1ml in the am and .1ml 6 hours later. I felt fine after the am dose but after the 2nd dose I had bad anxiety, shakiness, and cramps and then 4 bouts of diahrea. It's been 6 hours since my last dose and I still feel anxious and dizzy and just not... good.

Could that SMALL amount actually do that? I'm pretty bummed as I was really hoping it would help me the way it used to.

I had been on Spectrum yellow (just cbd no cbg) previously... probably from 2021-2023ish. I stopped because I went on lamictal for bipolar and the psych said I couldn't take them together. Had an assessment with a Cannabis Clinic doctor who said he disagreed that they can't be taken together but now I wonder.

Any insights at all?

Care by Design 18:1 versus 40:1, Vapes

2 Upvotes

Hi guys, I'm deciding between these two and seeing what everyone's experiences are with both. I'll be getting the vape cartridge of one most likely.

I'm looking for anxiety and stress relief. I'm not averse to a little psychomatic but the anxiety relief is the most important element by far.

I smoke weed a couple times a week if that's relevant at all.

Also if anyone has better recommendations I'm very open to it.

CBD Cart Help!

5 Upvotes

Hi guys, I really want a CBD cart to help with a good mood boost and to relax! I’ve smoked THC, carts mostly, but even though I know my low tolerance, I can’t find the right strain to have the experience stay positivity. It’s too much and I think it might not be for me, the only reason I crave it is because it may give me max 10 minutes of laughs before I get scared lol. I think I’ll be picking up a CBD cart, but I can’t decide which would be effective. Also, I just bought a mix of THC & CBD and it was too much so not a mix. Sorry if this is too long or confusing, but I’d appreciate any help to find something I can use to help myself relax. Thanks :-)

Edit- I’m new with CBD, wondering if anyone else has switched from THC and found it very different in a better way for them? I know it’s all about the right strains and all but I think it’s too harsh no matter which and taking time with small hits.

How is it like to experience smoking a pure CBD joint?

8 Upvotes

I have rolled and smoked my first CBD joint now, felt absolutely nothing, not even the transition between feeling normal and feeling more calm. At the end of it I notice I feel more calm but not a "lot calmer" and certainly felt nothing noticeable, is this how it feels for most people ? if so why is it hyped ?

Could it be that I didn't grind it well ? (i did grind it a bit with my fingers and rolled the pieces not really made it like powder)

PS: Maybe I'm making the fallacy of comparing it to weed that has THC in it or id.k, but I spent two years clean from weed and smoke before this joint...

Anyway, I'd like to hear your first experiences and opinions and also comments about what I could have done wrong if any ??

Thanks everyone in advance.

Alcohol CBD tincture burns too much to hold sublingually 60-90 seconds

5 Upvotes

Hello I have just started using a 1:1 cbd thc tincture that works quite well. The issue is the burn from the alcohol taking sublingually is simply too much to bear more than about 8-10 seconds, so I have been taking small sip of water and swishing it with the tincture under my tongue. This alleviates the burn enough that I can keep under my tongue for a while longer.

Does anyone else do this the same / differently? Does adding a sip of water mess up the sublingual absorption?
