For many years I was taking (1) 150 mg ... in the morning and (1) 150 mg .....at night. = 300 mg
Then I took (1) 150 mg ..... in the morning and (1) 75 mg at night. = 225 mg for 2 months (April & May 2019)
Then I let go of the 75 mg at night and stayed on (1) a day in the morning 150 mg ( June to now Oct. 2019)

That was a large cut, 33.33%. You should have cut it by at least half if not more, depending on how long you were on it to lower your chances of withdrawal symptoms. CBD oil probably isn’t necessary if you decrease slowly enough. It takes a long time to come off but coming off withdrawal free or nearly withdrawal free is worth it.
