Does anyone treat their PTSD with CBD oil? And, if you do, does it work for you? Is it effective? I am investigating how to get qualified for a CBD prescription for myself, and wanted to hear testimonials from any PC members who use CBD oil to treat their PTSD symptoms successfully.

What is cbd oil?

[childofchaos831]

Canibinoid oil. It's the non psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. By that I mean the part that doesn't make you high.

Thanks for asking this question..I would also like to hear from people who have successfully treated their PTSD with this method; I would like to control the triggers I experience at times.

I'm a medical cannabis user, and CBD oil is what I use during the day when I need to calm down but still be 100% lucid and functional. It gives me the warm fuzzies - that is quite literally the physical feeling - and helps mellow the symptoms of anxiety. For instance, I vaped some right before my last checkup (medical settings are a huge trigger), and my blood pressure was normal rather than sky high like it usually is at the doctor's office. The downside is that it wears off very quickly compared to THC. To keep up the feeling, I have to vape at least once an hour. The cartridge cost about $40 and has about 250 hits, so it's definitely not the most economical option, but I definitely recommend trying it.
