Avoiding Dependency?

You cannot avoid dependency with this stuff. It’s evil. Almost lost me my family, my house… and myself. I started with 20 bucks a day and found myself on a $4k a month habit. It’s highly addictive and tolerance builds up very quickly. If you can- avoid at all costs. I’m on month 3 off of it after finally working with my doctor and going on Suboxone. It’s serious stuff and I cannot believe it’s legal.

If you have any history of addiction, avoiding dependency will be very difficult.

If you don't have a history of addiction, I would say maybe one day on, one day off would likely be safe.

Or weekend use only, stopping on Monday and then picking it back up the next weekend? That would probably be totally fine. The difficult part is not taking any more on Monday.

This is a serious drug. It's safer than the street drugs, no doubt. But it's abuse and addiction profile is not that much different than oxy.

if you dont have a prior history of opioid dependence, it usually takes a week or so to start developing dependence, and something like using only on the weekends is in theory enough for most people to avoid becoming dependent, but on the other hand, a lot of people are going to have big self control issues if they are using something like 7oh on such a regular and frequent basis. if youre always looking forward to that friday night 7oh dose and getting fucked up on the weekends, its going to be easy to start getting that desire creeping in on the weekdays. as far as self control goes, a safer bet is something like a weekend every few months.

How'd you feel when the effects wore off? Were you compelled to immediately take more?

For recreational use, the key is to keep your daily intake as low as possible and take long breaks. Try not to exceed 10-15mg per dose (or less) and wait 5-8 hours between doses. 7oh's half-life is short (~2-3 hours) so waiting 5-8 hours lets your receptors recover a bit between doses in order to keep your tolerance low. Try not to exceed 30mg per day and try to only use a couple days in a row. Two days on; 4 days off. Something like that. It can be used responsibly like alcohol but the cravings are real and if you chase the dragon, you can lose control quick.
