PTSD affects millions of Americans, including many veterans. CBD has gained attention as a potential complementary approach for managing PTSD symptoms.
PTSD Symptoms CBD May Address
- Anxiety and hypervigilance
- Sleep disturbances and nightmares
- Emotional regulation
- Fear memory processing
What Research Suggests
Early research on CBD and PTSD is promising:
- A 2019 study found CBD reduced anxiety and improved sleep in PTSD patients
- Research suggests CBD may help with fear extinction (processing traumatic memories)
- CBD's anxiolytic effects are well-documented

Regular CBD dosing to maintain baseline calm and reduce overall anxiety.
Acute Episodes
Fast-acting CBD (vape or sublingual) during panic or flashbacks.
