Publisher's Synopsis
In recent years, scientific research has been able to confirm that the anxiety disorder known as Obsessive-compulsive Disorder (OCD) is more common than originally thought. According to recent reports, 1.2% of all US adults have been diagnosed with OCD - with over 80% of the affected suffering moderate to serious impairment.As cannabis and hemp are legalized in a growing number of states, many OCD-diagnosed individuals are turning to cannabidiol (CBD) in a bid to self-medicate. Where exactly do primary cannabis compounds come in on the topic of anxiety disorders? To understand this increasingly popular practice, we'll need to do a little bit more than a "CBD oil for" OCD search. In this book, I explain how obsessive-compulsive disorder works, how CBD works and whether or not CBD is a viable method for improving symptoms associated with OCD.In a nutshell, OCD is a self-perpetuating cycle of obsessions and compulsions.
