Evidence supports CBD for treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder

Effective and safe treatment of PTSD – link between Endocannabinoid System and processing traumatic memories
“CBD has the potential to treat symptoms of PTSD safely and effectively without psychoactivity and underscores a link between the endocannabinoid system and the processing of traumatic memories in the brain. Evidence has shown a reduction in circulating endocannabinoid levels in individuals with PTSD, including a 2013 study of individuals following exposure to the World Trade Center attacks. “These data support the hypothesis that deficient eCB [endocannabinoid] signaling may be a component of the glucocorticoid dysregulation associated with PTSD,” the authors concluded. 390 Even the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs acknowledges on its website that the link between PTSD and the endocannabinoid system has been clearly demonstrated and that cannabis may help with symptoms in the short term, but warns about the long-term risks of addiction to high-THC cannabis. It mentions that CBD has been proven to be effective at treating anxiety related to other causes, but that research on its use for treating PTSD is not yet adequate.”
