By impacting the receptors that produce serotonin, CBD can help regulate the symptoms associated with experience of social anxiety, PTSD, and OCD.

Sleep Regulation

CBD has been shown to have similar sleep regulating benefits as THC. But unlike THC, CBD does not have any of the same psychoactive properties causing one to feel a “high”. CBD can regulate sleep through a variety of different mechanisms, such as the regulation of anxiety that prevents one from falling asleep. It can also invoke a deeper REM sleep, providing a more rejuvenating night. On the other hand, in smaller doses, CBD can stimulate alertness to reduce daytime sleepiness. So using CBD can help regulate your cycle whether it is before bedtime, or after lunch!
