One of the most prominent chemical compounds found in marijuana is cannabidol aka CBD. I'm American and CBD is legal nationwide now so I can freely purchase CBD products at stores. I buy bottles of 25mg CBD capsule pills and generally take one pill a day. I also buy vaporized CBD oil e-cigs and smoke them at any time of the day. CBD is legal as an over the counter product now because it's marketed as a nutritional supplement instead of a medication but I guarantee it has use as a medication. It has no THC so it won't get you high but it can still be used as an antipsychotic, a mood stabilizer, a relaxant, and a pain killer. It helps for insomnia too and if you take a high enough dose it does cause a relaxing sedating effect. It works better than prescription drugs. I really wish CBD products were around and legal when I was a teenager. If I had access to them, I never would have become the medicated mess I am today.
The only downside is it's expensive, a habit young people cannot easily afford. A bottle of 30 25mg CBD capsules is $100 and the e-cigs are about $15 per vape pen. It's the best bipolar treatment I've tried, highly recommended if you can afford it.
