Hello everyone... been reading here for awhile and decided maybe my experience with CBD might interest someone.
I take it for anxiety and panic attacks. This summer was pretty stressful and about October 1st I took my first dose of CBD oil. I use Green Mountain and .25ml on their measured dropper twice a day. The price is very reasonable and they post the lab results. It has been wonderful for me. My use of emergency Xanax is practically nil. If I do feel the need for Xanax I use 1/4 the dose now. For me it seems taking it on a daily basis gives the best results. I do not take it on a "need it" basis altho on a really stressful day I may increase my dose slightly or add another full dose. For anxiety a smaller dose works well for me. Have been able to avoid starting Wellbutrin.
This is my experience only. I would urge you to talk to your doctor before changing anything you are taking.

@fairoaks- A warm welcome to Mayo Connect and happy holidays. I too use CBD oil and have tried to figure out dosages and percentage of ingredients. I use a local compassion center and I take 10 mg per dropper, but included in that are other oils too.
It sounds like you are doing very well in controlling your symptoms and doses of medicine. Do you have any tips on how you reduce your stress?
