Anxiety Rings and CBD
Anxiety rings are a type of fidget toy or stress relief tool that can be worn on the finger. They are designed to provide a small, discreet way to fidget or occupy the hands in order to help reduce anxiety. They can be helpful for people with anxiety disorders or for anyone who experiences anxiety in certain situations. Some anxiety rings have features such as spinning disks or other moving parts that can be rotated or played with to provide a sense of calm or distraction. Alternatives to anxiety rings include other types of fidget toys or stress relief tools such as stress balls, fidget cubes, or worry stones, or even things like knitting or doodling can also be a good alternative.
Anxiety rings come in various designs and shapes, some have spinning disks or other moving parts that can be rotated or played with to provide a sense of calm or distraction. They are small enough to carry around in pockets, purses or even in your hand, making them easily accessible when you need them. These rings can help to reduce stress and anxiety by providing a safe and healthy outlet for nervous energy.
Anxiety rings UK can be especially helpful for people who experience anxiety in social situations or in public places. They can be a way to discreetly manage anxiety symptoms and provide a sense of control during a stressful situation. They can also be beneficial for people who have trouble focusing or who have difficulty sitting still for long periods of time.
While anxiety rings can be a helpful tool for managing anxiety, they may not be the best option for everyone. Some people may find them too distracting, while others may not find them helpful at all. In such cases, alternative methods of anxiety management such as cognitive-behavioural therapy, medication or even CBD oil can be considered.
CBD oil, short for cannabidiol, is a non-psychoactive component of the hemp plant that is believed to have a number of potential health benefits, including reducing anxiety. CBD works by interacting with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), which plays a role in regulating mood and anxiety.
A number of studies have shown that CBD may be effective in reducing anxiety and improving overall well-being. In a study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology, researchers found that CBD oil was effective in reducing anxiety and improving sleep in patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). (We will list some of these studies below in our references for those interested in searching the data further!)
Another study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology found that CBD oil was effective in reducing anxiety and improving overall well-being in patients with social anxiety disorder (SAD).
While more research is needed to fully understand the potential benefits of CBD oil for anxiety, the available evidence suggests that it may be a safe and effective alternative to traditional anxiety treatments, and may work better than anxiety rings. It is always advisable to consult a doctor before using CBD oil or any other alternative therapy.
In conclusion, anxiety rings can be a helpful tool for managing anxiety, but they may not be the best option for everyone. Alternative methods such as CBD oil can be considered as well. It is important to remember that anxiety is a complex condition that requires a personalised approach, and what works for one person may not work for another. It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the best course of treatment for you.

FAQs
What CBD oils are best for anxiety?
This is a question which will depend very much on the user. We find just as many of our customers opting for a cbd isolate based oil as we do for those looking at full spectrum or even broad spectrum oils. It is very much a question that is best tested by each person to find which CBD oils work best for them. The common advantage to CBD full spectrum oils are in regards to the well known combination of CBD with other cannabinoids called the entourage effect. The combination of other cannabinoids with CBD are said to interact with one another to have a more profound impact. However on the flip side, we find many customers who want the purest form of CBD with no further cannabinoids and for these users a CBD isolate remains their best bet.
How much CBD oil should I take?
So this brings us full circle to the heading of the blog post. Well to be honest, ultimately it depends. If you are a new user, we would typically suggest trying a CBD isolate oil and going for a small dosage in the region of 10mgs. You can then build this up over the following days and weeks to test your tolerance and see how your body reacts up to a limit of 70mg. We always remind people that you can dose far higher than this, and there are studies that have supported its safety profile as high as 1500mg per day, but we would certainly not suggest anyone to do that!
I’ve taken CBD in small doses before but now I want to try CBD for anxiety, so what do you suggest?
For a more seasoned CBD user, we might suggest trying a broad spectrum of full spectrum CBD oil but would still look to start small with a dosage in the 10-25mg category. This allows any user to build up overtime and to really test how the CBD interacts with your body and if it really aids your sleep.
Can I take CBD everyday?
Yes, you can take CBD everyday and in fact building up CBD in your system overtime can give some of the greatest benefits as opposed to one-off dosages.
Which CBD Oil is best?
We like to think variety is an important factor, and that is one reason at Associated CBD we try to hold a wide variety of CBD strengths, types and products! There is no best CBD out there, it is about what works best for you and your body.
Are there studies that can support CBD helping with anxiety?
Yes, there are plenty of studies that support CBD having effects on anxiety and many of our customers have left positive reviews for how it has supported them in this way. Some of our blogs look in more detail at these studies.

Is CBD oil safe?
Yes, it is perfectly safe and legal to consume and all our products have a legal limit of THC below 0.2% and lab reports are available for all our CBD products.
Will CBD get me high?
No, CBD will not get you high as CBD is not the psychoactive element of Cannabis Sativa group of plants that gives the “high”. This is the THC element and all our CBD products for pain relief contain less than 0.2% THC as legally permitted in the UK.
