CBD Oil for Anxiety: Does CBD Help Anxiety?

  • by Jekaterina Gussarova

Anxiety disorders affect millions worldwide, impacting mental well-being and daily life. Amidst various treatments, Cannabidiol (CBD) oil has garnered attention for its potential in managing anxiety symptoms. Understanding its role and effectiveness in alleviating anxiety requires a closer examination. This comprehensive guide aims to delve into the science behind CBD, its interaction with the body's systems, existing research findings, potential benefits, recommended dosages, and important considerations for those considering CBD as a remedy for anxiety. Let's navigate through the complexities and uncover insights into utilizing CBD oil for anxiety relief.

Understanding CBD and its Interaction with Anxiety

"CBD is a chemical substance found in cannabis that has medical benefits," the NHS website explains. "It will not get you high, because it does not contain THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the chemical in cannabis that makes you high." According to a study from the King’s College London, CBD indirectly interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), which plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological functions, including mood, sleep, and stress responses.

What Is Anxiety?

Anxiety is a natural response to stress or apprehension about potential threats, whether real or perceived. It's a complex emotion involving feelings of worry, nervousness, or unease that often manifests physically and emotionally."Anxiety symptoms may vary from person to person but often will include a racing heart, sweating, headaches, difficulty sleeping, irritability and fatigue," Dr. Balu, founder of the Emotional Wellness Clinic and scientific advisor at Cannary. "Persistent or chronic anxiety can elevate the levels of stress hormones, which can disrupt many natural processes in your body," he adds. "It can make you more susceptible to a variety of medical conditions such as digestive problems, depression, headaches, memory/concentration impairment, heart disease, weight gain and sleep problems."

DrBalu continues: "The causes of anxiety often cannot be pinpointed to one specific thing and anxiety may be caused by a mental health condition, a physical trauma, a life experience or a combination of all of these."

Research Insights

According to study in the British Journal of Pharmacology, CBD can treat anxiety-related disorders, promoting a sense of calmness without the psychoactive effects of THC. Another study in the Journal of Psychopharmacology suggests that CBD can reduce anxiety in people with social anxiety disorder(SAD).

Mechanisms of Action and Potential Benefits

CBD's potential in alleviating anxiety symptoms might stem from its interaction with serotonin receptors in the brain. Serotonin, a neurotransmitter, plays a pivotal role in mood regulation, and imbalances are often linked to anxiety and depression. By influencing serotonin signaling, CBD may help in restoring equilibrium, thereby reducing anxiety levels.

Additionally, CBD's anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties have been proposed to contribute to its anxiety-relieving effects. Reduced inflammation and neuronal support could potentially mitigate stress-related responses, offering a holistic approach to managing anxiety symptoms.

How to Take CBD Oil for Anxiety

Taking CBD oil for anxiety requires a thoughtful approach to ensure effectiveness and safety. Here are some considerations and steps to follow:

Choose a High-Quality CBD Product

Opt for CBD oil from reputable sources that provide third-party lab testing results, ensuring potency and purity. Look for products derived from industrial hemp and labeled as containing less than 0.3% THC (tetrahydrocannabinol).

Start with Low Dosage

Begin with a low dose of CBD oil. According to the Food Standards Agency(FSA), 10 mg of CBD (4-5 drops of CBD Oil) is enough. The previous advice, dating from 2020, set the limit at 70 mg per day. Professor Robin May, Chief Scientific Advisor at the Food Standards Agency said: “Our independent advisory committees have reviewed the safety assessments submitted by the industry as part of their novel food applications and we are advising that healthy adults should take no more than 10mg of CBD a day.

“The more CBD you consume over your lifetime, the more likely you are to develop long-term adverse effects, like liver damage or thyroid issues. The level of risk is related to how much you take, in the same way it is with some other potentially harmful products such as alcoholic drinks.

“We encourage consumers to check the CBD content on the product label to monitor their overall daily consumption of CBD and consider if they wish to make changes to how much they take based on this updated advice.”

Emily Miles, CEO of the Food Standards Agency said: “We have always advised the public to think carefully about taking edible CBD products and as with all foods, we continue to review our advice based on the evidence we gather from industry.

“We understand that this change to our advice will have implications for products currently on the market that contain more than 10mg of CBD per serving. We will be working closely with industry to minimise the risk, to ensure consumers are not exposed to potentially harmful levels of CBD.” 

Consider CBD Spectrum

CBD products come in different spectrums—full-spectrum, broad-spectrum, and isolate. Full-spectrum contains all cannabinoids, including THC (in legal limits), while broad-spectrum has cannabinoids except THC, and isolate contains only CBD. The entourage effect suggests that full or broad-spectrum may have enhanced effects due to the combination of compounds.

Sublingual Administration

This is a common method where CBD oil is placed under the tongue and held for about 60-90 seconds before swallowing. This allows for quicker absorption into the bloodstream through the mucous membranes, leading to faster effects compared to swallowing it directly.

Monitor Effects

Pay attention to how your body responds to the CBD oil. It might take time to notice changes, so consistent usage and observation are essential. Track dosage, timing, and any changes in anxiety symptoms to find the optimal routine.

Consistency is Key

For best results, maintain a consistent CBD regimen. Taking it at the same time each day can help in establishing a routine and better understanding its effects on anxiety symptoms.

Be Patient

CBD effects can vary among individuals, and its impact on anxiety may take time. Some might experience immediate relief, while others might notice gradual improvements over weeks or months.

Consider Complementary Approaches

Combining CBD oil with other anxiety management strategies, such as therapy, mindfulness practices, regular exercise, and stress-reduction techniques, can complement its effects and enhance overall well-being.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the potential of CBD oil as an anxiety management tool offers promise, supported by growing evidence and anecdotal experiences. While research indicates positive outcomes, the landscape of CBD for anxiety warrants further comprehensive studies to establish its efficacy, optimal dosage, and long-term effects.

For individuals considering CBD as a supplementary approach to managing anxiety, collaborating with healthcare professionals, understanding product quality, and staying informed about evolving research remains imperative. Navigating the realm of CBD for anxiety involves a blend of scientific exploration, cautious experimentation, and informed decision-making for a more holistic approach to mental wellness.
