Small study with mostly small doses and better than expected outcomes IMHO.

I have several friends using CBD for anxiety and depression (in addition to normal meds.)

IMHO, it has profound potential medically. Anecdotal evidence is unreliable, but one close friend of mine started taking doses at my insistence while going through cocaine and heroine withdrawal. It make a profoundly noticeable change in her attitude.

I hope that more clinical studies are funded regarding it's use for those matters because a cheap and readily available medicine to help with these symptoms is severely needed to help those seeking to end their addictions would be greatly beneficial to society at large.



I have the same hope, which is why I posted this. Moreover, I emailed the first author so they would be aware of the discussion here.
