Stress and anxiety is a major issue in society today.
According to a study done by Siphelele Nguse and Douglas Wessenaar called “Mental health and Covid-19 in South Africa”, data presented by the South African College of Applied Psychology (2018) suggest that one in six South Africans suffers from anxiety, depression, or a substance use disorder, 40% of South Africans living with HIV have a co-morbid mental disorder, 41% of pregnant women are depressed, about 60% of South Africans could be suffering from post-traumatic stress.
This is a problem that many are facing, hence there is such a variety of products on the market to help soothe the symptoms of these disorders, however, research states that there are benefits of CBD when it comes to stress, anxiety and, other related issues.
Anxiety, panic attacks or other general anxiety issues can have a major effect on your sleeping pattern. According to a report in The Star, the symptoms of these factors can lead to, chest tightness, short breaths, sweaty palms, and feelings of gloominess.
As we all may know, when you don’t get proper sleep, you’re even less capable to fight stress the next day, which than lead to more anxiety.
This is where you can benefit from using CBD also known as Cannabidiol. CBD can help with sleepless nights, where you can get the necessary rest to tackle tasks of life. Now, CBD is not a cure for stress and anxiety but it can certainly help you relax — and restful calmness can do wonders for the nerves.
The Star says CBD can help with general wellness and relief for aches, pains and inflammation to stress relief.
