I've been on Lexapro for my panic disorder and GAD, and it's really helped with the panic. But lately, by the end of the workday, I'm feeling stressed and having trouble focusing. I'm thinking about trying some CBD oil to help with that. My local vape shop has this CBD oil that's 100% CBD with no THC, and it comes in different concentrations.
