CBD is purported to help with anxiety attacks but again it is a drug that has side effects so you really should consult with a naturopathic Dr to see if it would work for you. You can also try the natural mineral Kava Kava which helps with anxiety as well but consult with your doctor first before you start using any medications natural or not to make sure there are no adverse side effects.
Yes
I am not licensed in medical Marijuana, however, my patients reported benefits from CBD in anxiety.
Yes. Everyone is different. But it works well for most patients. Many of my patients use it for this reason. Not for teens though. Risk for schizophrenia is too high for that age.
Try Ashwaganda supplement instead
