The fear of public speaking is extremely common among people of all ages. It even has a name, Glossophobia. Many people, when surveyed, have indicated they are more afraid of speaking in front of an audience than they are of death.
CBD CAN HELP WITH FEAR AND ANXIETY
In a recent double-blind study, 60 men and women, ages 18 to 35 were divided into five groups that either received CBD, a placebo, or Clonazepam (a medicine used to treat panic disorders)
After each participant gave a speech, they filled out a questionnaire on anxiety level and had their blood pressure and heart rate measured.
THE RESULTS
Clonazepam was effective, as it consistently reduced anxiety in a more sedative way. However, CBD was also effective and didn’t have the potential for the side effects of Clonazepam which are: muscle weakness, drowsiness, indigestion, loss of muscle coordination, slurred speech.) There are others, but I think you get the picture. CBD has none of these side effects. The placebo group wasn’t as successful as the Clonazepam and CBD.
CONCLUSION
CBD can be used to reduce anxiety and fear of public speaking without the serious side effects of Clonazepam. In addition, CBD can be effective in a variety of other ways and can help reduce several other conditions and ailments.
