AI Thread Summary
CBD oil, particularly hemp oil, is noted for its potential benefits in alleviating anxiety. Users report positive effects, such as improved calmness and sleep quality, although some experience grogginess the following day. It's emphasized that while initial advice from a pharmacist is valuable, consulting a family doctor is crucial for personalized guidance based on individual medical history. The importance of professional medical advice is highlighted, as forum participants cannot provide tailored recommendations.

It has been suggested by a pharmacist I know that cbd oil, in particular hemp oil, has benefited those who suffer from anxiety. I am not prescribed to any anti-anxiety medication, nor do I use any drugs or alcohol. But I have tried hemp oil recently at night for anxiety and I must say it does help me calm down and sleep soundly. However the next day I'm usually groggy and spacey. Does anyone else use this or is thinking about using this? Do you know of any side effects?

It's good that the initial advice came from a medical professional (a pharmacist), but you really should discus this with your family doctor. Your doctor will be familiar with your medical history, and will be able to ask you much more detailed questions. We can't know your medical history or ask you those detailed medical questions, and we are not doctors, so sorry, we can't help you on this. Please talk to your doc about this.

Best wishes. Thread is closed.
