Please note: CBD-rich (cannabidiol-rich) marajuana that does not have the TCH-rich (tetrahydrocannabinol-rich) properties of marijuana and is not psycho-active and does not put you 'under the influence" or does not cause one to become inebriated. Recently, research has shown CBD to have analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-anxiety properties without the psychoactive effects (the “high” or “stoned” feeling) that THC provides.

Yes, it has been a miracle for me. I use CBD during the day and THC to help me sleep at night. The high of the THC wears off by morning, but the affects on the physical pain can still be felt throughout the day. You just have to find the right strain. The people at the dispensary are very helpful in helping you find the right combination.

CBD isn’t legal in all US states but it’s getting there. More US states are making THC legal but until the Feds remove it as a class 1 substance it’s still against the law.
I’ve used both. CBD worked for about 1 week. THC wax helped with sleeping, pain, anxiety and helped me generally feel better. Didn’t like the high only smoked at night.
For the pain properties of cannabis to be fully active one needs THC/CBD combo that works best for them. THC is great at relieving inflammation which we all know is a huge culprit of our pain.

I recently tried CBD via vape and I did find it helpful. The one I tried was 8CBD:1THC, so it has a small amount of THC but not enough to have a psychoactive effect. I was vacationing in a state where it's legal and was going on a hike. I wasn't feeling well that morning, but after using the CBD vape I did feel much better. I was able to finish the hike no problem and felt okay later as well. I'm sure there was a psychosomatic effect, but as long as I'm feeling good that's all that matters! I used it throughout my trip and would love to be able to use it at home.
