- Notes: Anxiety disorders are the most common mental disorder in the US and affects 18.1% of the population or roughly 40 million adults. Anxiety disorders can be disabling to the point that hospital visits become more frequent and the person cannot perform activities of daily living efficiently. Mood disorders are often treated with SSRIs or Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors. Serotonin is the neurotransmitter responsible for mood, happiness, and feelings of wellbeing. CBD creates a similar effect by acting on serotonin receptors to normalize serotonin levels, which in turn improves the mood.
