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.

Me, personally, I noticed an effect. However, I've never been a potist.

I used it for when I was sick. I got some flavored oil and put a few drops under my tongue occasionally.

Yes, it helped calm me down. But, I was hungover after I stopped taking it. But I get hangovers very easily because my liver has lived a few lives at this point - I was a bit of an alcoholist.

Thank you! Does calm down also refer to some pain felt or was it rather recreational?

But more importantly: the past tense in your last sentence sounds like you are still going strong without. If so: an internet stranger is proud of you!

Thanks internet stranger, yes I'm not drinking anymore.

So now I'm remembering I had something wrong with my foot, or some sort of swelling somewhere. And it did help relieve the pain, but personally I wouldn't take it again for that because of the hangover.
