But one thing that bothers me is when people without any expertise "prescribe" it for people with anxiety. It's true that it can help some people with occasional anxiety, but for people with actual anxiety disorders, it often does the opposite. It's a sad irony and people with diagnosed anxiety disorders (like myself) should talk to a doctor and not rely on anecdotal opinions. It can make the parts of the brain that release chemicals that cause anxiety or balance (or cause an imbalance in) serotonin even more active in some people. Reading some of the posts in this thread that recommend certain strains to people who are truly desperate for anxiety relief makes me a little upset.
Here is a good write up on it:

I agree, I feel like CBD oil is the new 'snake oil' and is going to take over essential oils for its magical ability to fix all maladies.
