I think the effect of cannabis on anxiety is 'U' shaped. Lower activation increases hippocampal serotonin / norepinephrine release and decreases anxiety. Higher doses have a more anxiogenic effect also increasing locomotor hyperactivity.
The interesting thing about oleamide, is that it actually inhibits FAAH itself, meaning that it might inhibit its own metabolism and/or become more potent after chronic administration.
I am going to pick up some soy (which as I mentioned contains a few substances which inhibit FAAH). The combination of cocoa, soy and olive oil might be interesting.
Sleep is always a big issue for me. I'm hoping to find something as effective as amitriptyline for sleep with fewer side effects.
