WELCOME BACK to A Mental Health Break. This is the show where mental health advocates and professionals worldwide share their stories, advice, and "WHY" relating to mental health.
For the Season 7, Episode 7, Tom Oliva joins the show. Oliva not only joins the show to share his personal mental health journey, but also how he is helping others do so, too.
Tom spent countless days and nights trying to help comfort Sonny, and after consulting a friend in the Biotech industry, Tom learned about Cannabidiol (CBD). After a few phone calls and a lot of research, Tom learned that the oil from the cannabis plant might be the key to finding relief for Sonny. Tom immediately purchased CBD for his grandfather and noticed improvements within hours. Sonny’s muscles and joints had reduced inflammation and pain, and his appetite and mood swings were in check. Most importantly, the CBD helped Sonny sleep through the night for the first time in months. CBD made Sonny’s life significantly more comfortable before his passing, and Tom hopes to help others find how CBD can change their lives as well.
