Book Extensive Guide to the Perfect CBD Oil for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

Download or read book Extensive Guide to the Perfect CBD Oil for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder written by Dr Patrick Solomon and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-05 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a terrifying event either experiencing it or witnessing it. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event. Most people who go through traumatic events may have temporary difficulty adjusting and coping, but with time and good self-care, they usually get better. If the symptoms get worse, last for months or even years, and interfere with your day-to-day functioning, you may have PTSD. Getting effective treatment after PTSD symptoms develop can be critical to reduce symptoms and improve function.Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a type of anxiety disorder. Some people develop PTSD after experiencing a traumatic event. People affected may feel anxious and highly vigilant, and have intrusive thoughts and memories of the trauma. With treatment, people with PTSD can make a full recovery.The facts people who have experienced repeated, deliberate harm such as sexual or physical abuse are more likely to develop PTSD than people who experienced unintentional trauma such as a car accident. About 25% of people who are exposed to traumatic events develop PTSD. Anyone can develop PTSD at any age. Women are more likely to develop PTSD than men .About 12% of people living in Australia will experience PTSD in their lifetime. Serious car accidents are the leading causes of PTSD in Australia. Everyone with PTSD has been through a dangerous event but not everyone with PTSD has experienced direct trauma. Some people develop PTSD after a family or friend experiences trauma. The death of a loved one can also lead to PTSD. People with PTSD live with a mental illness. They cannot 'snap out of it' without treatment. Their behavior is a function of illness, not weakness. Feeling strong reactions such as fear, anger or sadness are natural after a traumatic event. For most people, these feelings will pass with time and support from friends and family. For people who develop PTSD, these feelings are intensely distressing and if left untreated, can last for a long time.For the millions of people worldwide who suffer from the condition, there is really no other way to put it living with PTSD is a nightmare. From night terrors and hyper-vigilance to simply being in a crowd, you never know when the condition may strike. As you may imagine, it is truly horrific to be perpetually on the cusp of panic.Throughout the last few decades, opiates have been readily prescribed and recommended by most doctors. But as those who routinely take the drugs will know, not only can opiates not even be helpful, they can also be extremely dangerous.As you might imagine, this is one of the reasons why PTSD victims all over the U.S. (and the globe) have recently been drawn to CBD for going on half a decade now, it has represented a potentially effective treatment with very promising results, and virtually no side effects.Most importantly, the effects of CBD for PTSD have been backed by recent studies showing the compound to have mitigating components at the biochemical level.In other words, it is becoming more and clearer that in terms of a safe and effective treatment for PTSD, CBD oil could be the answer. Let's take a little more in-depth look at why this is the case, and whether or not you can expect doctors to start recommending CBD for post-traumatic stress disorder in the near future.

Download or read book The Lazy Man Guide To CBD Oil for PTSD written by Vincent Ellwood and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-01-03 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can occur after you have been through a trauma. A trauma is a shocking and dangerous event that you see or that happens to you. During this type of event, you think that your life or others' lives are in danger.Going through trauma is not rare. About 6 of every 10 men (or 60%) and 5 of every 10 women (or 50%) experience at least one trauma in their lives. Women are more likely to experience sexual assault and child sexual abuse. Men are more likely to experience accidents, physical assault, combat, disaster, or to witness death or injury.PTSD can happen to anyone. It is not a sign of weakness. A number of factors can increase the chance that someone will develop PTSD, many of which are not under that person's control. For example, if you were directly exposed to the trauma or injured, you are more likely to develop PTSD.Preliminary research on cannabinoid treatment for PTSD suggests that cannabinoids might be useful to treat for example Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, or treat other anxiety disorders with CBD. Besides that, other studies show that CBD works particularly well to remove the fear or anxiety as well as the traumatic memory. Overly recollections are avoided and the physiologic responses normally triggered are avoided as well.Due to the improved sleep patients are reporting to get after taking CBD, the body itself is put in its best position to cope with the stress related to traumatic events and CBD is often used for sleep treatment.

Book Use of Cannabis in the treatment of post traumatic stress disorder

Download or read book Use of Cannabis in the treatment of post traumatic stress disorder written by Pharmacology University and published by Pharmacology University. This book was released on 2021-12-19 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An event that had an impact on you, an accident, the traumas of war...are situations that could cause anxiety, fear, insecurities, stress, among others. Millions of people have the well-known post-traumatic stress disorder and cannabis could be an ally in its treatment. The scientific understanding of psychological trauma has witnessed a constant evolution since the 19th century to the present day, several terms have been created in the effort to categorize this phenomenon, as well as multiple explicatory theories often contradictory between each other. In 1889, Herman Oppenheim, a German neurologist, introduced the term "traumatic neurosis". This condition was explained in an organicist manner, by subtle changes at the molecular level in the nervous system. In 1904, Pierre Janet proposed the first explanation of what we today know as PTSD, caused by a failure in memory integration due to extreme emotional arousal. Post-traumatic stress disorder is defined as an exposure to a highly traumatic event, be it a bombing, rape, assault, kidnapping, accident, and more; where the lives of the people in the event are at risk. The images of the traumatic situation are experienced over and over again (flashback), against one's will and despite the time, it remains present and is manifested by intense anxiety reactions such as: worry, intense fear, lack of control, high physiological activation and others. This generates stress, exhaustion, intense emotions and irrational thoughts that increase in intensity. Currently, cannabinoids -substances derived from the cannabis plant- have been involved in modulating the stress response in various animal models in which some degree of stress has been generated. It has also been shown that corticosterone facilitates the synthesis and release of endocannabinoids. In addition, systemic or direct administration in the amygdala reduces stress in fear conditioning models. The recent knowledge about cannabinoids provides a novel therapeutic window for many mental disorders including post-traumatic stress disorder. Preliminary data indicate that medical cannabis and its compounds can manage symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder related to hyper-excitability. Anxious responses to exteroceptive stimuli and trauma experiences that are context-dependent. While these clinical observations need to be sustained and replicated in larger populations, they provide a clue to the calming effects that cannabis may have on stress and anxiety behaviors. (Patel et al. 2017) The rapid progress that medical research has had to determine the therapeutic properties of cannabis derivatives and the medicinal use of this plant, has generated hope for improving the quality of life of people suffering from various diseases; this based on the beneficial effects that phytocannabinoids have shown against many disorders such as PTSD. In this book that Pharmacology University brings to you, we will explore in more detail what this disorder consists of, what are its clinical manifestations, how the endocannabinoid system acts, as well as the role that cannabinoids can have on the stress and fear experienced by people who suffer from the dreaded post-traumatic stress disorder.

Download or read book CBD Oil for Anxiety written by Healing Cannabis and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-09 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Home-made Supplement for Anxiety, Depression, Sleep, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Pain Management Anxiety is a condition that impacts nearly 40 million adults in the United States alone. While anxiety is treatable, many do not get the right kind of help, and worse yet, many do not seek help at all. Fortunately, recent studies have found that using CBD oil for anxiety can be an effective solution, with little to no side effects. Conditions like depression and anxiety are linked to low levels of serotonin in the brain (serotonin is a neurotransmitter that helps regulate mood). CBD oil can help by activating a serotonin receptor called 5-HT1A, which increases serotonin levels in the brain. Traditionally, anxiety and depression are treated with selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs) like Prozac or Zoloft. Unfortunately, these conventional medications can produce undesirable side effects like loss of sleep, dry mouth, reduced sex drive, and diarrhea. It can also be difficult to stop taking SSRIs, as it's possible you could experience unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. CBD oil can have a positive impact on serotonin levels without any of these negative side effects. The human body contains two types of cannabinoid receptors: CB1 and CB2. CB1 receptors are found mostly in the brain while CB2 receptors are found throughout the body. CBD is a cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant that indirectly stimulates activity in both the CB1 and CB2 receptors. Tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, is another cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant that produces the 'high' typically associated with marijuana consumption. CBD oil does not have the same intoxicating effects as THC, and will not get you high. So, CBD oil's interactions with the endocannabinoid system can produce a wide range of positive results in the body from relieving pain to reducing anxiety without impacting your mental or physical capacities.

Book excerpt: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) are relatively common disturbances. Both present a treatment challenge with disappointing outcomes and frustrating results.The aim was to clinically evaluate the efficacy and the safety of Medical cannabis in PTSD and ASD. It is presented a sample from an open study that included thousand PTSD patients (presented 400) and hundred PDD patients (presented 43) that were treated by Medical Cannabis (MC) in my private clinic since 2008 (PTSD) and 2014 (PDD). The diagnosis of PTSD and PDD was made upon DSM5 symptoms checklist.All the patients received the treatment approval from The Israeli Ministry of Health (MoH) to smoke between 30-50 gram/m of MC (PTSD) and the same amount of Cannabis oil (PDD). The MC was supplied aleatory by Israeli Cannabis Companies from MoH list. The cannabis strain was selected for the personal needs of the patient, until 16% THC for PTSD patients and based mainly on rich CBD oil for PDD patients. MC was added on their regular treatment.The preconditions for MC approval in PTSD were two significant psychiatric treatment trials and at least one kind psychotherapy course. For the PDD group, the diagnosis was made in childhood. The patients were psychiatric treated in the past. The results showed a significant clinical improvement for both groups and stability during time.The PTSD patients described a better sleep, continuous and without nightmares, less hyperarousal, anxiety, anhedonia and traumatic intrusions.They described improvement in social and occupational functioning. 74.5% stopped all medication. 68% returned to work/ study (29.1% before treatment). The PDD patients improved in violent, obsessive and behavior, showed improvement in affective and cognitive symptoms.

Book The Health Effects of Cannabis and Cannabinoids

This book was released on 2017-03-31 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Significant changes have taken place in the policy landscape surrounding cannabis legalization, production, and use. During the past 20 years, 25 states and the District of Columbia have legalized cannabis and/or cannabidiol (a component of cannabis) for medical conditions or retail sales at the state level and 4 states have legalized both the medical and recreational use of cannabis. These landmark changes in policy have impacted cannabis use patterns and perceived levels of risk. However, despite this changing landscape, evidence regarding the short- and long-term health effects of cannabis use remains elusive. While a myriad of studies have examined cannabis use in all its various forms, often these research conclusions are not appropriately synthesized, translated for, or communicated to policy makers, health care providers, state health officials, or other stakeholders who have been charged with influencing and enacting policies, procedures, and laws related to cannabis use. Unlike other controlled substances such as alcohol or tobacco, no accepted standards for safe use or appropriate dose are available to help guide individuals as they make choices regarding the issues of if, when, where, and how to use cannabis safely and, in regard to therapeutic uses, effectively. Shifting public sentiment, conflicting and impeded scientific research, and legislative battles have fueled the debate about what, if any, harms or benefits can be attributed to the use of cannabis or its derivatives, and this lack of aggregated knowledge has broad public health implications. The Health Effects of Cannabis and Cannabinoids provides a comprehensive review of scientific evidence related to the health effects and potential therapeutic benefits of cannabis. This report provides a research agendaâ€"outlining gaps in current knowledge and opportunities for providing additional insight into these issuesâ€"that summarizes and prioritizes pressing research needs.

Book CBD Oil for Anxiety and Depression

Download or read book CBD Oil for Anxiety and Depression written by Craig Peckham and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-20 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anxiety and depression are often zmisunderstood conditions that afflict many, many people. In fact, up to one out of three people will be affected by an anxiety disorder or depression during their lifetime. While some have success combatting the conditions with pharmaceutical drugs such as SSRI antidepressants, these really shouldn't be relied on in the long-term as they come with numerous harmful side-effects.In technical jargon, cannabidiol, or CBD, is a chemical constituent of Cannabis sativa that's a pharmacologically broad-spectrum drug. In simpler terms, CBD has a wide array of potential therapeutic and medicinal effects, and cannabis (and hemp ) plants produce it naturally. For decades, CBD has drawn increasing interest for its effects on the nervous system. We tend to hear a lot about CBD in the context of treating epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and nerve pain. But there's also the potential for treating a range of neuropsychiatric disorders, from trauma and depression to stress and anxiety. In this guide, we lay out the case for using CBD for anxiety. We also discuss how to dial in the best CBD oil dosage for anxiety symptoms, and explore the best CBD oil for anxiety relief.If you are one of the millions that suffer from anxiety or depression, however, there is hope. CBD, the non-intoxicating cannabinoid cousin of THC, is proving itself to be an effective anti-anxiolytic and antidepressant and is already helping thousands to manage their conditions and once again enjoy life.A potent calming effect, along with a slew of other health benefits, is why CBD-containing products such as CBD oil have become so popular. This book will explain how CBD works to reduce anxiety and depression, how you can use CBD oil to treat these conditions, as well as give you our 5 top CBD oils for beating your demons and improving your mental health.Several studies point to the potential benefits of CBD for anxiety and depression. For generalized anxiety, the National Institute on Drug Abuse says that CBD has been shown to reduce stress in animal studies. Study subjects were observed as having lower behavioral signs of anxiety. Their physiological symptoms of anxiety, like increased heart rate, also improved.Studies have also shown some benefits for other forms of anxiety, such as social anxiety disorder (SAD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). CBD may also help treat anxiety-induced insomnia.In 2011, a human study on CBD and its effects on SAD was published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology. Participants were given either an oral dose of 400 milligrams of CBD or a placebo. The results showed that those who took the CBD dose experienced overall reduced anxiety levels.On the other hand, a 2017 comprehensive review of CBD studies in psychiatric disorders found inconclusive results. According to the authors, there isn't enough evidence to claim CBD as a treatment for depression. However, the authors do note positive results for anxiety disorders. Based on their review, more human tests are needed to better understand how it works, what ideal dosages should be, and if there are potential side effects or hazards.CBD has also been studied in other neurological disorders. A 2016 study found some antipsychotic benefits of CBD in schizophrenia. The authors indicated a preference for CBD over antipsychotic drugs, which are known to cause significant debilitating side effects.Buy this book Now and you will br glad you did

Download or read book Cannabinoids as Therapeutics written by Raphael Mechoulam and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only a few years ago the endocannabinoid system was unknown. Today we are aware that endocannabinoids are involved in many of the functions of the mammalian body - in neuroprotection, appetite and suckling, pain, reproduction, anxiety, memory, bone formation etc. This volume presents an up-to-date picture of some of the major fields of endocannabinoid research. It summarizes the actions of the endocannabinoids on various physiological systems and opens new therapeutic windows to a large number of diseases. The first chapter, on the use of Cannabis in India, can be viewed as an expression of thanks to the herbal practitioners, who for centuries passed on the medical traditions associated with the drug. The chapter on chemistry is a short summary of active plant, synthetic and endogenous cannabinoids being investigated today, many of which are mentioned later in the book. Cannabidiol is an unusual cannabinoid - it does not bind to the known receptors and yet exerts a variety of effects. Hence a chapter is devoted to it. Further chapters deal with the endocannabinoid system and the endocannabinoids in a variety of conditions and physiological systems. The concluding chapter describes the research done on Sativex®, a standardized plant extract, shortly to be introduced in Canada as a drug for multiple sclerosis. The intended audience is drug researchers (medicinal chemists, pharmacologists, clinicians), neuroscientists, physiologists, and clinicians interested in the effect of the endocannabinoid system in various physiological systems.

Book excerpt: When CBD oil first came out, some people wrote it off as another product intended to get you high without any real benefits.A lot of people think that marijuana is all about getting stoned.Then, on U.S. national television, it stopped an epileptic seizure.Now we have people saying that CBD is a miracle chemical and can help anxiety, depression, and pain.Fear and anxiety are adaptive responses essential to coping with threats to survival. Yet excessive or persistent fear may be maladaptive, leading to disability. Symptoms arising from excessive fear and anxiety occur in a number of neuropsychiatric disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorder (PD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), social anxiety disorder (SAD), and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Notably, PTSD and OCD are no longer classified as anxiety disorders in the recent revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-5; however, excessive anxiety is central to the symptomatology of both disorders. These anxiety-related disorders are associated with a diminished sense of well-being, elevated rates of unemployment and relationship breakdown, and elevated suicide risk.CBD oil is both natural and legal compound that is extracted from the cannabis plant and which can relieve the pain and discomfort for many issues, some of which are back pain, arthritis and inflammation.It doesn't matter if you're a complete beginner or an experienced user who wants to deepen his knowledge, easy to understand and relevant information contained in this book will give you a better quality of life.You can expect to learn about :* Reasons why you should be using CBD oil* Safety and legality of CBD oil usage* Proper and effective application* And much more.If you think that natural options tend to fall short, then CBD oil might be just what is necessary to change your mind.If you're ready to get rid of that unnecessary nagging from your life, then scrolling over to the buy button and clicking it is the right thing to do.
