Found CBD Cannabis Oil at our local health shop

Just bought some CBD oil.
Understand I'm not looking for something new to get addicted to but done some major reading on this in the past. I want aware it was even legal to buy here in Alabama (2nd state to legalize it) but I'm willing to give it a shot. It's supposed to help with not only cancer and tumors but anxiety, inflammatory issues and other small problems.  I used to smoke pot and remember it always helped me when I was having headaches or my calves burning. I am no way encouraging any kind of drugs but I will write down what I feel like and give a report on it. If I feel like this is helpful then it could be something natural that can be helpful to others in recovery.
I would like anyone's input please, I want to make sure this is a safe product to use to help with recovery.  If it's not then I will not want to continue this use. I will listen to all constructive criticism, I feel it will be necessary in this.
Thanks ((John))

Hi there
Geez not sure if I should post this,  but here it goes.
I believe cbd oil has great benefits, neurological being one. There is alot of "fake" stuff out there, so be careful.
the pure oil is expensive about 50.00 a gram.
Charlotte's web, Hayleys hope,  cbd gold all have between 23-24% cbd and
.03 -.77 % thc.  Not enough thc to cause a high.  It helps with pain,  seizures, mental issues also withdrawl.  
These I've had first hand experience with my daughter, she has the same type of seizure disorder as little Charlotte which brought Charlotte's web out in the open.  My daughter dependent on many drugs but one that was a nightmare for her was Klonopin.  I was able to wean her off Klonopin  with the use of the oil, when other tries were impossible.  It also controls her seizures approx 90-95%.  The key with the oil is less is best, and give it time to help. ..it won't be immediate.
I've seem amazing results in my daughter,  and believe other claims to probably  be accurate.  We have been working with it near a year, with no increases over the year, just a reset about every 3 months. NO side effects.
this is not meant to offend any one
good luck to you

That's not what I'm wanting to achieve,  just because I attempt to use natural remedies don't mean I'm saying it's okay to use pills. But that's a good point, I don't want it to trigger another. I went in looking for natural vitamins and spotted this, I remember reading about baby Carly (Carly act was passed on CBD) and thought it would be something better than a pill

This is just a thought..but when i had just a few months in on my Recovery, I was still sick with the detoxing. Everything hurt from my Head to my Toes. I had pain in the lower sac in the spine and so forth. I went and talked to my DR and he said, since I have no history of anything wrong in this way, he said I had "Somatic Syndrome"..Meaning that my Brain was still healing and balancing back and it will sending false singles to my body.  It was very painful all over but after a few more months later everything went away. Just a Thought!!! lol
Bless

So far I know it's knocked out the anxiety and the burning feeling I have in my feet, I wrote the time down at 12:30pm when I took it and it's 2:10pm. It's definitely something I plan on using in the morning after my walk
