Hi, does anyone have any experience of using CBD oils with autistic teenagers to try and assist with low mood, anxiety and meltdowns.
Thanks in advance
Xx |

"Sorry I've an autistic son but never tried any of the oils myself but would be good to know if the massage oils have any calming effects"
Thanks for the reply, we’ll hopefully learn together then. |

I don't know about CBD oil for teenagers, but it didn't really do much for me. My autistic teenager is much calmer if he has a "clean" diet. Specifically cutting out sugar and refined carbs has a huge effect on his anxiety. The only trouble is he doesn't stick to it. |

In a similar vein, I'm not a teenager but I am autistic and I found cutting caffeine out of my life has had a huge positive impact with anxiety in particular |

I've not been brave enough to do that yet! The clean eating has had better results for me than my AD's ever had. There is a lot of research into autism, gut health and diet. It's very interesting. |

As a recovering alcoholic who has had a few other addiction issues, caffeine has been by far the hardest thing I've ever quit! The withdrawal and cravings are real!
