Not only that, the CBD was given in addition to normal treatment: "A large retrospective case series at a psychiatric clinic involving clinical application of CBD for anxiety and sleep complaints as an adjunct to usual treatment." This study design prevents us from making any strong conclusions on CBD. Was it the normal treatment that helped, or the CBD? With no controls, and no separation of standard treatment and the new intervention, we can't conclude anything. In defense of the study authors, they don't make a strong conclusion, and call for controlled clinical trials. But I doubt people talking about the study will be that restrained.
