Summary
A Reddit user with POTS wrote in 2024 that CBD gummies helped their symptoms tremendously, though they still overdid tasks and forgot to pace. In September 2025 they said they were back at college, still sick but saying things can drastically improve, and that a couple of years earlier they had been in a similar position. They had passed out in the bath and used a shower chair.
