It hit me like a ton of bricks, out of nowhere, my heart rate went silly and I was feeling unable to breath! I thought I was having a heart attack and then I remember that this was what it was like to have anxiety.
I had to excuse myself from a meeting and go outside for some fresh air.
Once the episode ended, I felt like I needed to have a chat with my doctor about it. I asked him for advice without using medication. I told him that I was not laboring out at much due to a foot injury, however that’s when she told me about using CBD products for anxiety. I was skeptical because I did not know how I would react to CBD products, but she assured me that a low dose would not make me sleepy or out of it. If I was having issues sleeping, she recommended taking a higher dose. I went to a local cannabis dispensary with my modern advice and found myself looking at CBD products for over an hour. One of the helpful employees told me about a CBD product she has been taking for years. She too suffers from anxiety and swears that this will help me with my anxiety. I decided to give it a try. The first afternoon I took CBD for anxiety, I was amazed at how well it worked. I was not exhausted or groggy, I just felt calm and collected. I now advocate CBD products to those suffering from anxiety.
