Each of these has its own subcategories and the spider web of what falls under anxiety disorders has many layers, but these four are the main categories.  <\/p>\n<p>Anxiety disorders usually stem from either your family\u2019s genes or the environment you were raised in, however, there are other contributing factors. <\/p>\n<p>Maybe you or someone you know deals with some form of anxiety disorder and is looking for some assistance? Perhaps you\u2019ve heard about CBD, or cannabidiol, and have been wondering whether it may assist you with your personal situation. <\/p>\n<p>Well, we have compiled a complete guide which will inform you of what exactly cannabidiol oil is, and the science behind it.

Cannabidiol is one of between 80 \u2013 100 cannabinoids that are found in the plant.   <\/p>\n<p>Some other cannabinoids that you may be familiar with are THC, CBG, CBN, THCA, and Delta 8. <\/p>\n<p>Now, you may be wondering what the difference is between cannabidiol, which is pretty much legal in all states, and another type of cannabis (that you tend to smoke or consume) which is not legal in all states. <\/p>\n<p>Well, that is because Tetrahydrocannabinol (also known as THC), is only legal to be present in cannabidiol products up to 0.3%. When a cannabidiol product has some percent of THC then that product uses full-spectrum CBD. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"how to use cbd oil\" class=\"wp-image-52865\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/cbdschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/how-to-use-cbd-oil.jpg 700w, https:\/\/cbdschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/how-to-use-cbd-oil-300x214.jpg 300w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cbdschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/how-to-use-cbd-oil.jpg\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/cbdschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/how-to-use-cbd-oil.jpg\" alt=\"how to use cbd oil\" class=\"wp-image-52865\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cbdschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/how-to-use-cbd-oil.jpg 700w, https:\/\/cbdschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/how-to-use-cbd-oil-300x214.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>THC is another cannabinoid, as mentioned above, that is found in the cannabis plant, that is known for creating the \u2018high\u2019 you will find in marijuana.<\/p>\n<p>The other types of cannabidiol that are used in CBD products are broad-spectrum CBD, and CBD isolate, and both of these go through a process to strip out the THC.  <\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"The_Science_Behind_CBD\">The Science Behind CBD<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There is not yet a complete understanding of the full extent of how CBD affects you once you have used it, although, more and more studies are being performed yearly. <\/p>\n<p>CBD interacts with two key receptors in your central nervous system and your peripheral nervous system.
