    As always, please do check in with your doctor in regards to anything you are also taking for your health issues.

    OK I have been having some weird things happening to me - since I started on CBD patches

    To start with - I woke up hearing someone downstairs - the wife had to go down and investigate - there was nobody downstairs !

    Then last night - in bed - I was convinced that there was a rat in my bed - the wife had to remove the duvet to check - there was no rat in my bed

    Hallucinations - common with CBD ??

    Maybe you should mention it to your doctor @Wibbles it could well be interacting with any medication you take!!

    Hi @Wibbles - I'd be very surprised if the patches caused hallucinations as they don't contain any THC. It's possible that you're very sensitive to CBD. Probably best to stop using the patches for a while, & speak to your Dr if these symptoms persist. It won't be interacting with other meds as it's absorbed through the skin.

    CBD orally is actually being trialed to treat hallucinations/delusions in Parkinson's. See p24 here:

    I also believe that CBD is making my hearing much more sensitive.

    Last night - at about 2am - I heard a boiler start up and run for 30 minutes - "a quiet pop then a hum"

    Our boiler was not running - so it must have been next doors (We live in a largish 3 bed semi)

    It is causing me sleep problems as well

    I am stopping taking CBD for a fortnight to see what the effects are !
