Has anybody tried CBD oil?

CBD, cannibidol is a non psychoactive extract of the cannabis plant.

It is reported to have many health benefits.

One of those is anti-psychotic, and being schizophrenic, I am taking it to relieve the symptoms.

Being on it for over two weeks now, and my anxiety has decreased and my mood is better.

I still hear voices, but they are not as bad as before.

I vape the CBD by adding a few drops to my tank. I have a 400 mg 10 ml bottle of CBD e-liquid.

I take the oil with thc, cbd, and cbn all in it. I'm a medical license holder.

I need the thc to stop my sleep apnea, supposedly around 25% of the male population has sleep apnea. THC strengthens/stiffens your throat muscles, the more you saturate your body with THC the better you sleep.

The doctor refuses to diagnose me with sleep apnea, and they have never seen me sleep! He just stuck something up my nose and said my airway is tight, and that I'm not obese. You need to have a diagnosis in order to buy a cpap machine, it regulates pressure into your mouth and nose while you sleep, it's also terribly uncomfortable to be wearing that while you sleep from what I hear, you have to pretty much stay still and I sleep on my side or even face down sometimes.

If I stop then within a month I'll be suffocating in my sleep and constantly waking up all night while I choke on my own throat flab. And then the next day I have no energy all day, and it's a vicious cycle.

I am wondering if I can get Marinol pills or drabinol or something of the sort, which is pill and FDA approved. Not sure how effective it would be for sleep apnea though compared to real THC.

I noticed if it has a high CBD% then it tends to knocks me out, puts me to sleep.

I am going to give it a try

There is a website called Project CBD (google it) which is an excellent resource for CBD research & information.. If you click on the Conditions menu option, you can view lots of links to CBD related medical studies/research for various conditions...

Don't go for the pill. The oil isn't awful, but the raw plant is even better. Cannabis oil is extracted by solvents like naphtha and butane. There is no removing all traces of those substances.

The Marinol pill is mostly petroleum byproducts just like all pills. It's colored by the same dyes in shampoo, because pills need to be pretty colors for some reason. That totally justifies adding an extra toxic ingredient. And even if the active ingredients of a drug were extracted from a plant, maybe those chemicals shouldn't be consumed alone. Different chemicals occur together in plants to balance each other.

Nature provides all food and medicine. If there were less humans and more forests, there would be enough resources for everyone. The medicine for a whole human is in a whole plant. Not a plant that has been soaked in a solvent, all but the oil discarded, then further acidified, alkalized, electrolyzed, and/or centrifuged to extract a potent chemical and mix it with a plastic binder. Just go buy some good bud if you wanna sleep haha.

Cannabis was held sacred for millennia as a healing herb. The FDA has been around for maybe a century. Does nature need FDA approval? You can buy marijuana in raw plant form on almost every block in every town in this country, albeit illegally. Who gets any benefit from putting THC or CBD in a pill you need a pharmacist for? Not you. Big Pharma just gets paid.

Hey all, I just bought a 150mg bottle of CBD vape liquid and tried it.

It's called QUARTZ and costed $40 plus tax for a bottle that would last for quite some time.
This stuff is legal and you can get it at probably any E-Cigg vape shop.

So yea, the feeling is surprisingly similar to marijuana.
It has antidepressant effects, and has many of the medicinal benefits that marijuana would give, I don't think it affects your appetite though that is probably THC.

But you feel like, maybe 1/2 or 3/4 the same feeling as when you are high, it's strange. But I recommend it, heck maybe I'll just try using this for now and see if I can quit thc. If I start choking in my sleep again though, I might have to go back.

Sometimes I think I have some kind of succubus coming after me or something. I don't understand why I have sleep apnea, I am not obese I'm fit, the freaking doctor wouldn't even diagnose me.


Update: Well I guess I was just too clean or something, that's why I felt some kind of uplifting effect because I have not even used anything in a little while. But the more I use it, the more normal I feel, it's hardly psychoactive at all. But still I like it, you keep a really clear head, but get many of the health benefits.

Just purchased my first CBD e-liquid and vape pen today. I have never vaped before, so this is a new experience. It has been about six hours, and I have been taking hits every 20-30 minutes or so - the liquid I am using is 2.72mg/ml CBD. I can feel a decrease in anxiety levels, and my muscle tension is dying down.

I have nerve damage throughout my body from a neck injury that I recently had surgery on. My daily pain levels are pretty high, so I'm hoping to find some relief with the CBD.
