CBD Vaping and Anxiety: Can It Help to Reduce Stress?

Amidst wisps of tantalising vapour dances a world of flavours, where dreams ignite, and clouds take flight in the embrace of vaping delight. Ignite your senses, and let the journey to an ethereal haze begin!

Vaping, if done responsibly, can be a pleasure sum activity. It can also help reduce stress and anxiety. It is good for relaxing, calming your nerves.

Before we further the discussion, it is vital to understand that when we talk about stress and anxiety, we are not discussing any mental health disorder but every day emotional problems—day-to-day anxiety caused by various emotional pressures and continuous emotional stress.

Everyone will face stress in everyday life, and most people will feel anxious now and then. It is vital to control these issues before they become a health disorder. In their early stages, these issues are best managed through non-pharmacological means. So, vaping could be one such option.

Again, a small disclaimer. Remember that vaping is good when done responsibly. Overindulging in any activity may harm. However, casual vaping could be an excellent way to reduce stress and enjoy things. Additionally, keep in mind that there are other good options for stress reduction, like exercise or practising mindfulness.

Nonetheless, casually indulging in vaping is fine. Moreover, in some instances, vaping is quite a good option, like travelling, moving around, or during breaks while working.

What is CBD Vaping?

In simple terms, these are vaping e-fluids that contain CBD. Quite like regular e-fluids, these fluids also have flavours and other beneficial compounds. Thus, these can be viewed as vaping products with some added benefits and enhanced experience.

One can buy either pre-filled CBD vape pens, which are generally disposable and for prolonged use. Many often prefer them, as there is no hassle of filling them with e-fluids, and one can just dispose of them once there is no e-fluid left. Another option could be using e-fluids/vape fluids that can be used to refill the device. Advanced users often prefer this method, as they love using a single type of device due to specific preferences.

CBD vaping e-fluids or vape pens, quite like ingestible CBD oils, come in various forms:

  • CBD isolate e-fluids or vapes:

    These generally contain high-purity CBD (more than 99%) mixed in a base fluid that may contain other ingredients like aromatic compounds. Many people love CBD isolate vapes or juices, which are often considered safer.

  • Broad-spectrum e-fluids or vapes:

    They often have a richer flavour and are more potent due to the entourage effect. These e-fluids or vapes contain CBD, other minor cannabinoids, and terpenes. Therefore, they also tend to have a more intense aroma.

  • Full-spectrum vape juice:

    As the name suggests, it is the ultimate thing containing CBD, minor cannabinoids, terpenes, but more importantly, THC in the permitted amounts, which is less than 1 mg (generally 500 mcg) in a weed vape oil container or below 0.2%. Hence, the product is legal and one of the best vape juices for stress relief and anxiety reduction. Full-spectrum vape juices have a more pronounced entourage effect, resulting in some unique effects.

Therefore, one can choose from different kinds of vape juices and vape pens. Here it is vital to understand that full-spectrum vape pens or juices are also labelled as THC vape pens or juices. However, they only contain THC in legally permitted amounts, which is quite a small amount. Nonetheless, this may result in some unique experiences due to an entourage effect.

The entourage effect is a term used to describe the effect when combining two substances may result in some unique effects. This is different from synergy, as in synergy, one component enhances the activity of another. However, the entourage effect means the development of some unique properties even by adding some compounds like THC, terpenes, or minor cannabinoids in tiny amounts.

Some Unique Benefits of CBD Vaping

Vaping is particularly popular among young adults. It is often a choice due to a specific lifestyle. Additionally, it is a more pleasant way of using CBD. Many adults enjoy vaping, and using CBD vape juices or THC vape juices or pens might have some additional effects and benefits.

There are some other unique benefits of CBD vaping. One such benefit is a quick effect. When vaped, CBD enters the bloodstream almost instantly. Thus, this results in quick stress relief.

The second benefit is bioavailability. One of the issues with oral CBD is its poor bioavailability of just about six percent. Even taking CBD sub-lingually results in bioavailability below 20%. On the contrary, vaping has the highest bioavailability, which is above 50% in most cases.

Higher bioavailability of just any substance naturally means more significant benefits and a better experience. Thus, vaping is a better way to enjoy various CBD effects.

Does it Help with Stress and Anxiety?

Anxiety and stress are all too common. As mentioned earlier, we here are not talking about some severe anxiety disorders but about day-to-day stress and anxiety caused by various life events.

Some of the top reasons for people taking CBD are to improve sleep quality, reducing anxiety and stress. Most people who use CBD regularly agree that it helps them feel less stressed and anxious. Vaping may be particularly good for lowering acute stress, as it works quickly.

So, yes, vaping is good for improving mood and countering stress. It is definitely not a panacea and not going to resolve your problems. But it can help make nerves calmer. People enjoy how they feel after vaping CBD.

The Bottom Line

Vaping is relatively safe when done responsibly. That is why it is legal to sell vape pens and juices. There are a few concerns regarding respiratory or lung diseases. However, it is vital to understand that these issues are quite rare, and just a few cases of such issues are reported each year. These issues are more likely to occur in those sensitive to vape juices or living with some inherent problems.

Similarly, cancer research UK says vaping is an excellent way to quit smoking, as it is a safer option. It is not entirely risk-free, but relatively safe. More importantly, unlike tobacco smoking, vaping does not cause lung cancer.
