I usually just have a glass of wine.

I’m really curious about CDB. I can’t get the gummies here, but I can get the oil. What does it taste like? I gag at certain tastes. What do you feel like? Is it like Xanax?

I heard about from this one FB group I’m in.



The Elixinol CBD oil I have is flavored like citrus. I mix several drops with water. I'm ok with different flavors and never gag- while I don't think it's totally disgusting, it doesn't taste "good" either.



Mine comes with a dropper, and tastes like I ate a mint. It's goopy, like syrup. Quite tasty, actually.
Brand is Plus CBD Oil drops, and flavor is peppermint.

It relaxes me like how I feel after a good hot yoga class. Or after a nice long meditation. It sneaks up on me like, all of a sudden I wonder why I'm not yelling at the kids for doing something that I would normally yell at them for.

What strength do you get in that? Seems there are 2 strengths?
How much do you take?

I have the CBD 5mg. And I take the recommended 15 drops at once. Depending on my day, I'll take it once before bed during the easier days of my cycle, and it relaxes me to fall asleep easier, and helps me fall back asleep after getting up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. On the tough days of my cycle (luteal phase), I'll take it up to 3 times a days. 15 drops is an entire dropper full.

What do you do to relax

For my real anxiety I’ll take a xanax
I was also approved for medical marijuana so I’ll take a puff of my vape pen, I have drops too but the pen works faster
If I’m just feeling edgy I’ll paint and depending on how I physically feel I’ll go to the gym for a swim or sit in the sauna
I sound like a basket case but I have a lot going on :(

Exercise. I have no time, but I make sure to schedule it. Even if that means 4:15 wake up.




That is what I do. I get up at 4:30 and get to gym at 5am before work

Re: What do you do to relax

everything i do to relax then turns into "something" and that something stresses me out.

i knit, crochet, bake, sew... all that stuff. and then i'll want the project to be perfect and i'll get all sorts of crazy anxious about it.

i've been toying with the cbd. i even placed an order, but there was a computer glitch, so i didn't buy it. i think i'll pull the trigger and buy it this weekend.

Honestly, getting up at that ungodly hour would stress me out even more and make me MORE irritable! Chat Icon

Re: What do you do to relax

Regularly.. Kickboxing or drink.

Or for those serious times I need it., I just say f#ck everything and lay my ass on the couch in the man cave and veg all day. Like a serious veg where I’m not wondering or thinking about anything. Totally disconnected... it just me, a dark room and TV playing trash shows.

I bought CBD oil (dropper bottle) in Oregon in July. The 1st couple times I took it i was amazed at the relaxed effect - equivalent to a few sips of wine but only physically no mental buzz. The weird thing is the next times I used it it did zero to me. Not sure why. Also tried kannaway chocolate chews and they did nothing as well.

You should go to a dispensary and talk to them about which kind would be best. Wish we had dispensaries in NY.

There are 3 dispensary’s in NY
I got to the one in Lake Success, it’s called Med Men. They have vape pens, drops and pills in all different strengths. My pain management dr referred me, you need a script to go. The only downside is it’s expensive! Insurance doesn’t cover it so for example a vape pen is $96. There is one in Queens and one in Suffolk but not sure what they carry or their prices. Hope this helps :)

There is one in Riverhead, but you need a card to get in. That card has to be given to you by a doctor and you pay for it.

Are we talking medical marijuana though?
Because CBD is not the same thing. You don't need a card or prescription to buy CBD as it does not contain THC.

I know they are different . She asked about a dispensary. They probably wont let you just walk in and ask, unless you had a card (yes, which is for medical marijuana)

I go to a vitamin shop in Syosset. Healthquest. It's right on the shelf. You buy it like any other vitamin.

In Cali, you can go to a dispensary without a card.

Meditation. Lately, I am using the meditation studio app (they also have good kids meditations) right before I go to bed. Exercise is the best stress reliever I have found- if I am short on time I do a quick workout or yoga at home. I have found scheduling time for exercise has really helped me make time for it.



Is that the $3.99 one?

It is $7.99. You can use a small selection of the meditations for free.
