    Hi. I just recently joined a Medical Cannibis program run by the Canadian govt. Had to be interviewed by a health professional and then they prescribed. I have anxiety and insomnia. I was on Anti depressants, daytime anxiety pills, and presently weaning off sleeping pills. LOTS OF PILLS! I hate meds. Hence, CBD.

    I was prescribed CBD for during the day starting at 5mg in AM and 5mg PM, and the CBD/THC 1:1 at night for sleep. They suggest I see how it works and if it doesn’t do what I want, to increase by 5mg after 3 days, and keep going (every 3 days) until I reach my goal. Well, I’m now on 3mg AM and PM. I don’t find it is helping much. I have one more stab at increasing as the do not recommend going past 40mg in a day. The night time definitely makes me feel very wobbly. It does put me to sleep but I wake up and stay up after, say, 2 hours. I also am weaning off the sleeping pills, so that could have an effect with the doc/thc. I have an appointment with my health professional on Monday to discuss my prescription. As I said, I am not a fan of prescription drugs and thought this would be a more natural approach. I know a lot of people swear by it and am determined to get this on the right track.

    I hope you are able to get some relief.
