Did anyone have any positive results with CBD products? (feddit.de)

Not too long ago, regulations on CBD changed in Germany leading to a plethora of products containing it. As someone who occasionally needs pain medication, I tried some of the products to avoid regular pain killers (ibu). Especially on days with lighter pain, I wished for an alternative to the sledgehammer meds. But I was left standing in the rain. I didn't feel any effect. That's why I would love to hear from your experiments and experience.

Thank you for the heads up! Half way through the answers I asked myself if a German community would have been a better pace to ask in terms of obtaining the substances, but the effect should be globally available I guess.

Are you informed if the latter is legally available in Germany?

THC is illegal, at least for now. That's what they're aiming to change at the moment.

Medical marijuana is legal in Germany. If OP needs it for health reasons he could go through legitimate process.

I heard it's legal in theory, but super complicated to impossible to get a prescription.

That's surprising given how close you are to recreational use legalization. Here in Poland MM is legal but we don't have any producers and get fair chunk from Germany (Aurora Deutschland, 420 Pharma).

At the same time medical marijuana business got so silly that you basically go to a website, fill out a form, pay ~€20 fee and get an e-prescription in a couple of hours. There's been some ineffective attempts at cracking down on it in the past weeks that resulted in slight fee increase.
