"High CBD will probably be one of the paths to treatment" On what exactly are you basing that off of? Vibes?

I wouldn't dismiss personal anecdotes any more than I'd dismiss someone claiming they saw something in a reputable journal but can't remember the citation. In other words, yeah, don't just believe it at face value- but if you have good reason to trust the source, it's worth considering and checking into further. In this case it's not just one individual but many people saying that THC and CBD are almost opposites if eachother, for example in how they affect anxiety. Definitely worth proper research imho, could lead to medication that has more of the pros and less of the cons

  No it's not. The poster should have referenced some sources. CBD has been touted as a miracle drug for over a decade now and it seems mostly like a fad at this point. But also it's not well regulated so it's easy for unscrupulous companies and individuals to profit from misleading marketing around it.

    > The poster should have referenced some sources. Who, me? ... Why? It's very well known and established that CBD has antipsychotic properties. And if you don't know, that and don't bring any evidence against it, then why claim otherwise before like, doing a simple search to check your priors? In any case, I've provided multiple citations elsewhere in this thread, and a whole bunch more come up on the linked search results. This isn't hidden knowledge or anything. > CBD has been touted as a miracle drug for over a decade now That's a separate issue. > it seems mostly like a fad at this point If you click the link you can see that isn't true. > also it's not well regulated so it's easy for unscrupulous companies and individuals to profit from misleading marketing around it.
