finding THC free CBD oil or gummies or something in NYC

September 22, 2018 6:30 AM

Where in Manhattan could a person go to get THC free CBD oil or gummies for anxiety, preferably below 42nd street. Anonymous because job and abusive extended family plus some other...stuff. Email if you have questions [e-mail]. I need a friendly place with lots of knowledge and without a hard sales tactic. I also need to not be sexually harassed at this place, if at all possible.

All of the tools I have built for managing my anxiety are not quite standing up to current situations. Every prescribed medication I have tried in the past year has actually exacerbated my anxiety and the psychiatrist I've been seeing is...not great.

Obviously, getting a better psych MD is on the to do list, but in the meantime, CBD oil comes highly recommended, I'm just too anxious to actually go get it on top of all the other survival stuff I'm working on.

Green mountain CBD will ship it to you.

Or if you need it sooner, The Alchemist’s Kitchen near Washington square park is well lit, inviting, and knowledgeable.

Agreeing that the best CBD I’ve found is at the Alchemist’s Kitchen on E. 1st St. It’s not the cheapest - I think it’s $140 for the small bottle. However I’ve tried other cheaper brands and they don’t even come close to relieving anxiety like what they carry at Alchemist Kitchen. Head to the back counter and ask there. They’ve always been nice to me.

alchemist's kitchen will also sell you a small sample bottle (~5 mL for ~$40) if you want to try without investing a lot of money

Modern Medicinals is in Oregon and will ship. I know the woman who owns the company, and she is professional-level serious about botany and organic growing so you know it’s high-quality and not adulterated.

Echoing the suggestion for The Alchemist’s Kitchen. I was apprehensive as a first-time CBD purchaser, but the space and staff are very chill and pleasant. I bought the small sample bottle mentioned above, and was impressed by its potency.
