Hey there, guys. I've not found a better thread here to ask you for help, so sorry for reviving this one. Long story short, I lost my brother six months ago. Car accident. So, I've not had more than 4 hours of sleep since then. I feel so exhausted and stressed as I've never felt before. My therapist advised me to try CBD oil and... Well, that's why I'm here. Any recs/thoughts/ideas would be appreciated.
Sorry for your loss! The grieving process is different for everyone, so make sure you are compassionate towards yourself in the process. As we can sometimes stress ourselves out over the fact that were in a hurry to make the stress go away.
Regarding the oils, if you're in the state of Iowa, you can get your card through a doctor. There are about 15 different conditions that qualify you for it and the last category is vague in that you can justify emotional pain. Just make sure you have a doctor that views it that way as well. Then you pay $100 for your card to be able to shop the products at the states dispensaries.
If you choose to go online and get one, check to make sure they are 3rd party tested. I don't use cbd but I know cbdistillery does 3rd party testing.
I am a big believer in meditation if you are interested in that route. If you have more questions on that, let me know.
