Not too long ago, regulations on CBD changed in Germany leading to a plethora of products containing it. As someone who occasionally needs pain medication, I tried some of the products to avoid regular pain killers (ibu). Especially on days with lighter pain, I wished for an alternative to the sledgehammer meds. But I was left standing in the rain. I didn’t feel any effect. That’s why I would love to hear from your experiments and experience.
Funny you should say that. She was prescribed Xanax in the short term to get her to the point where we could find a long term solution. And much like you described, it was great for the few hours after she took it. But her body craved more after that, and it made it so she couldn’t sleep without it. It completely fucked her mood. It was awful and terrifying. She got off of it, but it was a long and painful process. We luckily had an amazing friend who had gone through the same thing come live with us for 2 months to help take care of her. And the doctors were so good about giving her a weaning plan.
She’s now on an antidepressant as a long term solution. Idr which type. And she has been off Xanax for 9 months.
