Anger is a negative emotion. Once you give it power over you, it will start controlling you. Thus, the most positive people do not give in to anger.

However, the world we live in is full of frustration, stress, and anxiety. Thus, there is a need to find healthy ways to deal with one’s anger issue.

CBD is being considered to naturally calm down the body and thus, release negative emotions, including anger.

Even though there is limited research in proving its capability as therapeutic drug, people around the world are finding relief after taking regular dosage of CBD oil for at least a month or so.

So, does CBD oil really help in dealing with anger issues? To answer the question, we have teamed up with thecannabisradar.com to answer the very important questions.

What is CBD oil?

CBD oil is a formulation of Cannabidiol, popularly known as CBD, which is manufactured from the cannabis plant. Before you ask, let us make it clear that CBD, unlike other products of cannabis, do not produce ‘high’ in human brain. The reason behind this is that CBD does not contain high volumes of tetrahydrocannabinol, also known as THC. Thus, it is natural, safe, and available in abundance.

When it comes to its properties, CBD is known to be quite therapeutic, so much that many people have started using it as an alternative medical treatment for health problems, such as anxiety, depression, chronic pains, inflammation, seizures, etc.

You do not have to worry about its legal status as well because CBD is not a ‘controlled substance’ and as per 2018 Farm Bill, it has been legalized in all 50 states of America.

However, there is still no ideal or regulated dosage of its consumption. Consumers have to start with minimal dosage until they start feeling better at certain amount. CBD does not come with any side effect; thus, it is safe to use and experiment with.

How does CBD affect mood?

Even though CBD oil is new in the market, it has been used by our ancestors in treating mood swings and bouts of anger. Research has proved that CBD is able to release happy hormones, such as dopamine, serotonin, and anandamide in the system which automatically leads to happy mood.

Studies have also shown that CBD can affects the basolateral amygdala in a positive way. CBD interactors with hippocampus, which is the part of brain responsible for regulating emotions. When CBD interacts with its receptors, hippocampus stimulates positive emotions and happy chemicals that provides therapeutic support to the body.

Also, CBD has anti-inflammatory properties that help in keeping the heart strong and reducing the stress, which automatically reduces anger and increases happiness. CBD is also known for healing emotionally distressing problems by balancing serotonin in the system and that clearly, affects the mood of a person.

Does CBD oil reduce or controls anger?

There are a bazillion online reviews where customers have claimed that CBD oil helped their stress, anxiety, depression, and anger issues. You can check the same on Reddit, Facebook, and Quora.

What really happens when one consumers CBD is that it interacts with endocannabinoid system of the body, which is primarily responsible for regulating the moods and memory of the body. If the ECS isn’t functioning properly, it leads to symptoms such as sensitivity to anger.

When CBD binds itself with the system’s receptors, sooner or later, body achieves homeostasis or state of balance. This automatically balances the dopamine, serotonin, and anandamide chemicals in the brain. When the hormones are balanced, there is no space for negative moods like anger, anxiety or stress.

When CBD regulates the ECS, a number of other systems, specifically nervous system and brain starts functioning properly. When CBD enters the body, it looks for imbalances and problems in the body that needs to be healed or looked into. For instance, if a person has an overactive brain, it leads to anxiety. What CBD does is that it calms it down by releasing dopamine and balancing serotonin in the brain. Similarly, it helps in other problems like pain and inflammation in the body.

Additionally, CBD has already proven to be a successful in dealing with stress, seizures, anxiety, depression, chronic pains, inflammation, amongst many other problems. All these problems contribute in anger problems. Once they are solved, a person shows less signs of anger.

Conclusion

Some of us easily get angered while the rest of us may or may not get triggered in certain situations. In fact, some people barely show any emotional reaction during stressful situations. While there are coping techniques to solve anger issues, CBD is a natural and an affordable way to deal with this problem. However, it is advisable to consult your doctor before starting your own CBD course, especially if you are on some other medication. One thing that you can remain assured of is that CBD will never have any negative effect on the body. So, be carefree when you start your CBD course and keep expecting positive things to happen to your body.
