How CBD Has Changed Our Lives
House in the suburbs, married with 2 kids, stable jobs…we had a lot to be grateful for. But although we had a lot of the outward markings of success, we each had our own struggles with stress and anxiety too.
Before having their first baby, Jen worked a high-stress job which left her feeling burnt out and depleted. This meant that she was more susceptible to perinatal mental health challenges, and experienced anxiety both during her first pregnancy and postpartum.
At the same time, Dan’s job came with difficult contracts and an extremely long commute, leaving him feeling stressed, drained, and experiencing a variety of worrisome physical symptoms.
In the summer of 2018, the stress and anxiety caught up with them – after several visits to the hospital and multiple doctors, Dan was diagnosed with a very rare and specific type of migraine (one which mirrors a stroke). He was given a few different types of medication to treat them – and although he was relieved to have a treatment, he didn’t love the idea of being on medication for the rest of the time.
Later that year, Jen & Dan were introduced to CBD products for their dog – they began using the oil to help Jigs with his separation anxiety and noticed an immediate positive benefit for him. They started researching and learning about all of the positive impacts of CBD and began trying it for themselves too.
Within a few days of trying CBD oil, each of them had positive experiences. Jen felt significant help and relief from anxious feelings and Dan felt a tremendous improvement in his headaches. In fact, he was even able to come off his ongoing migraine medication.
Finding a solution that was plant-based and could address a variety of health problems was so exciting, Jen & Dan couldn’t help but share with their family and friends. When they started seeing their friends having success feeling better and getting relief, they knew they were on to something.
That’s when they decided to start Daylight CBD in order to spread the love and help more people experience a natural solution for anxiety, inflammation, pain, and overall health.
