I’d suggest trying one product and switching to another if you’re not feeling any changes within a couple of weeks. If the second product doesn’t work, then CBD may not work for you.
Without knowing much, I feel like it runs into the same problem as Latinx. It is unintuitive to speak the words how they are written. The specific auteur.ice example seems relatively easy to actually speak, but I’m sure other words run into the same problems.
I thought you just counted as a willing creature for INT, CHA, and WIS saves if you decided to fail the saving throw. I feel like the only Attribute it intuitively doesn’t make sense for is CON like in the house rule you described.
Cash bonds unfairly affect people with lower incomes. Eliminating cash bonds makes it so people will be released unless they are a risk to the public or are a flight risk from trial. This should reduce the inequality in treatment by the justice system based on income.
