Too much cbd makes anxiety worse?!

Hi guys. I had been taking about 10mg per day of CBD sublingually for the last couple of months. I have recently bumped this up to 20mg. (10 in morning and 10 at night). I think it helps my anxiety and I have been sleeping like a baby. I have been saving the Doh and can afford to bump it up to 45mg per day (25mg via vaping).

I see no issues with this as no OD affect has been proven and I can afford it atm. One person on a support group said that too much can make anxiety worse?! Anyone have any knowledge or experience of this?
 
Everything I've read says the effects of CBD are a very individual thing. However, no physical harm should result and nothing I've seen has said that it increases anxiety. The worst side effect I've heard of is getting sleepy, but everyone's body chemistry is different. Sounds like if it's helping you, you should keep using it.
 
I've been on it for about 3 months and I swear by it for anxiety and pain. I've heard about the anxiety issues but as far as I know that is for the CBD oil that has THC in it. People don't realize it but marijuana can actually make you anxious --- it all depends on body chemistry. I would play with it -- if you see your anxiety spiking up you can always cut back.
