Hi Buz
I think it depends on the type pain?? Not sure if it is more effective for some type of pain than others .... anyways ....
CBD has been my go to for pain since I shattered my tibia in my moped-bike accident.
I have taken the liquid gel tabs, the gummies and tinture. For me, the ease of the liquid gel tabs is best, but I always have gummies at hand.
My concern with pain meds is - no one wants opiods - the morphine was a horrible experience (doh!) and constantly taking tylenol or motrin cannot be good for anyone's liver over an extended time.
The CBD works for me ... takes the edge off, but like any pain med, it's important to keep on top of the pain as it will run away and then you have to take double to get the pain level down again.
Thankfully, I have now many days where I don't need any CBD, but when the rain comes or my foot get cold, thank god for the CBD .... it just takes the edge off so I am not gonna punch out any one.
Hope if you try it, it works.

I will be quite frank. I am quite surprised that this thread is ..... dead.
*mumbles to myself*
Tony's suicide has hit me very hard. Just days after Kate Spade. There have been many suicides of famous people; some you admire, some you didn't of know too well. But nonetheless, some that hits you harder than others.
Tony's death has been, my one of 3 suicides in the last year that has made me physically and emotionally hurt.

I have suffered with depression on and off since I miscarried my first pregnancy years ago.
Those of us who suffer, know how easy it is to slide...... no amount of money, dreams, love, friends, goals can change a slide when it happens.
I know .... I know that slide so well.
The isolation. The overwhelming urge to say fuck it. The disinterest. The pain you just wish would magically evaporate.
but ..... it doesn't. The clouds change from white .... to endless greys ....... grey .... grey ..... the numb grey.
The wish for sleep to take you away to some place where it feels right ...... or take you away ..... and never return to reality.
Anyways .... sorry for the ramble .....
