CBD for Stress

Feeling overwhelmed and on edge? You're not alone.

Everyday stress can take a toll on your well-being. Stress can creep in from all corners of life, and what stresses one person might not faze another.

The most common sources of stress come from: work pressure, financial worries and relationship problems. Sometimes, even without a specific source of stress, the feeling of having too much to handle can be overwhelming and lead to general anxiety.

If you're looking for a natural approach to managing stress, CBD might be worth exploring.

Do you experience any of these symptoms?

Physical Symptoms

Symptoms like sweating, rapid heartbeat, headaches, changes in appetite: Some people lose their appetite under stress, while others find themselves comfort eating. Digestive issues: problems like heartburn, diarrhea, or constipation. A weakened immune system: More vulnerable to illness.

Emotional Symptoms

Stress can have a profound impact on your well-being, leaving you feeling constantly on edge and overwhelmed with worry. It can lead to unpredictable mood swings and cloud your ability to focus, making even simple tasks seem daunting. In more severe cases, chronic stress can intensify feelings of hopelessness and contribute to depression. It drains your motivation and robs you of the joy you once found in activities you loved.

Behavioral Symptoms

Stress can make you feel jittery and restless like you can't quite sit still. You might even start biting your nails. This nervous energy can make you want to be alone and skip out on spending time with loved ones. Taking care of yourself, like eating healthy and getting enough sleep, can also fall by the wayside when stress hits. Some people use tobacco to cope with stress, similar to how others might use alcohol or drugs. While it might feel good in the moment, these habits can actually make things worse in the long run.

Cognitive Symptoms

Suddenly, remembering that dentist appointment or focusing on a work project feels like climbing a mountain. Stress can make it hard to concentrate, leaving your mind wandering and productivity plummeting. The constant mental strain can also lead to decision fatigue. Even simple choices feel overwhelming, leaving you drained and unable to think clearly. Negative thoughts can creep in, making it hard to see the positive side of things.

Understanding Stress and the Potential Benefits of CBD

What is Stress?

What is Stress?

Stress is the body's reaction to a challenge or threat. It's a normal part of life, and in small doses, it can even be helpful. Stress can give you a burst of energy to meet a deadline or help you focus on a difficult task. However, when stress becomes chronic or overwhelming, it can negatively affect your physical and mental health.

Reduce stress with CBD

Everyone experiences some stress from time to time, which is not a problem in itself. However, if the symptoms of stress negatively impact both your body and mind, CBD oil may be a suitable solution. Recent studies suggest that CBD oil can be considered a natural remedy for stress relaxation.

The impact of stress on our well-being can be profound. It often leaves us feeling constantly on edge, easily frustrated, and overwhelmed with worry. It can depress our mood, cloud our focus, and make even the simplest tasks seem overwhelming. In more severe cases, chronic stress can strengthen feelings of hopelessness and contribute to depression, draining our motivation and robbing us of the joy we once found in our daily activities.

When stressed, you may notice yourself engaging in behaviors like fidgeting, pacing, or nail-biting – physical expressions of the nervous energy within. Social interactions may feel taxing, prompting a tendency to withdraw from loved ones or avoid socializing altogether. Basic self-care practices, such as eating regular meals and maintaining hygiene, might take a backseat. 

How to use CBD for stress

Your guide to using CBD for stress:

Finding your perfect fit

Choose the right product. From oils to patches, pick a form that suits you (consider potency, delivery, and ingredients).

• Start low, go slow. Begin with a low dose (around 10-20mg daily) and gradually increase as needed.

Maximizing effectiveness:

• Water-soluble CBDActive+: Mix with any hot or cold drink, fastest absorption.

• Sublingual for oil. Place oil under your tongue for faster absorption (hold 30-60 seconds before swallowing).

• Consistency is key. Take your CBD product daily, ideally at the same time, for best results.

Tracking your progress:

 Listen to your body. Notice how you feel and adjust dosage based on your stress levels, mood, and well-being.

• Find your sweet spot. Experiment to discover the optimal dosage and routine that works for you.

A holistic approach:

• Combine with healthy habits. Pair CBD with relaxation techniques, deep breathing, and therapy for comprehensive anxiety management.

Safety first:

• Talk to your doctor. Consult a healthcare professional before using CBD, especially if you have health conditions or take medications.

• Be aware of side effects. CBD is generally safe, but some experience dry mouth, dizziness, or fatigue. If you have any concerns, stop using it and see a doctor.

• Stay informed. Keep up-to-date on the latest research and regulations regarding CBD use for stress.

Dosage of CBD for stress

There is no one-size-fits-all solution for determining how much CBD supplement you should take. It is best to start with a lower dosage (approximately 10–20 mg per dose) to evaluate how your body responds before gradually increasing the amount over time. Our products have dosage advice on their package; this is a starting dose. Increase the dosage over time when you feel it's necessary.

Additionally, depending on your specific condition and needs, you may need to adjust the dosage until you find the perfect balance between symptom relief and maximum benefit without any adverse side effects.

Your reason for taking CBD affects the required dosage

Consider why you wish to try CBD and the severity of your ailments. This will affect your required dose.

Consider:

  • If you’re looking for chronical support, you may need higher doses.
  • For most, a low-concentration CBD oil or tincture would provide sufficient relief for minor conditions.

How fast does CBD work?

The onset of CBD's effects can vary depending on several factors, including the method of consumption, dosage, individual metabolism, and the specific reason for using CBD.

CBD's kick-in time depends on how you take it:

Fastest:
Water-soluble CBDActive+. Could work in less than 15 minutes

Quick:
Sublingual oil (regular CBD oil, applied under the tongue). 15-30 minutes

Moderate:
Capsules. 30 min - 2 hours

Slowest but targeted relief:
Topicals (creams, gels, etc.) patches. 15 min - 1 hour

While some experience immediate relief from CBD, others may take longer to feel its effects. This depends on factors like dosage, how you take it (fastest: Water-soluble, slowest: creams), and your body's chemistry. Chronic conditions like anxiety might benefit from consistent use as CBD builds up in your system. Be patient and find what works for you!
