understanding the mechanism at play is key to success or failure

CBD interacts with the serotonin receptor (5-HT^1a) along the neural pathways damping negative emotional stimuli thereby enhancing / promoting positive emotional stimuli.
This allows the amygdala ( fight or flight centre) to respond differently under conditions of negative emotional stimuli reducing the anxiety response from the anterior cingulate cortex ( emotional memory response )
This facilitates altered transmission from the anterior cingulate to the hippocampus and on to the sympathetic nervous system' allowing normal sleep cycles to be re established - ie no more insomnia

This statistically significant mechanism of action has been established in many prior studies.

Interestingly psilocybin/psilocin has a very similar effect as a mechanism and is administered with a standardised psychotherapy set. Some pharmaceutical trials are now actually combining both psilocybin and cbd based on these outcomes.
