cannabidiol for anxiety and epilepsy

[Lopez]

i live in texas so medical marijuana is a no no and i don't want to break the law anymore considering the ever worsening penalties here in texas so i can't be toking up anymore, i'm officially diagnosed with anxiety and temporal lobe epilepsy, however i've never had seizures, just emotionally charged panic attacks and periods of self-destructive behavior, but without depression (suicide becomes a peaceful thought instead of a depressing one)

i've tried benzo's and anti epileptic drugs to no success... at least no long term success. anyway apparently CBD is readily available online from hemp oil extracts, i heard it is a great anxiolytic, does anyone have any experience with it? i know it doesn't get you high but it's also a 5ht2a partial agonist so does it have any mood enhancing effects? anything interesting to report?

it's quite expensive (extracts are up to 120+ dollars compared to the usual 10 dollars i payed for a box of clonazepam), however benzo's make me very unstable in the long run.

CBD is still illegal. You'd probably be better off just buying some ganj. It is a good anxiolytic, but by itself without other cannibinoids it def loses something. Straight up CBD did not help me in the way I thought it would. Benzos are far stronger for chronic, intense, anxiety. You might as well try though, you never know, it might work really well.
