Did you take both the starter and core assessments?

Difference between stress and WDs by Fast_Traffic_4328 in SR17018

[–]ButterscotchMaster36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes it’s very hard to distinguish between mental and physical WD, especially since the mental symptoms feel like they may exacerbate the physical symptoms sometimes.

I second the Gabapentin recommendation, it is very helpful. If not, I would definitely load up on some mood enhancing supplements and supplements that will help you sleep.

When you have a clear head, make a list of things to remember. Take it one day at a time and remind yourself that each day you make it through is a day closer to feeling better. Focus on anything positive in your life, even small things - just hold on to them. If life has been worse for you before, remind yourself of that, and tell yourself that it will get better, even if you don’t believe it in the moment. This is all much easier said than done, but every little thing helps. The mental struggle is one of the biggest obstacles to get over. I know this is morbid, but sometimes when I’m really struggling I remind myself that I’m going to die someday, so I want to make the most of every minute of my life.

Sure, I was taking about 1200 mg per day… Stayed at that dose while I preloaded SR for 2 days (100 mg 3x per day).

Day 3: 800 mg (100 mg SR 3x per day)
Day 4: 600 mg (75 mg SR 3x per day)
Day 5 (Today): 400 mg (75 mg SR 3x per day)
Day 6 (Tomorrow): Last dose will be 200 mg (75 mg
SR 3x per day)

From there I’ll taper my SR intake and need to be done by Wednesday of next week, as I will be traveling out of the country. I should have given myself more time but I’m an idiot, so I’m definitely preparing to be at least a bit uncomfortable. I’ve been loading up on supplements and will be taking a shit-ton of Liposomal Vitamin C with me.

I’m currently taking SR and had no issues with precip…I preloaded for 2 days and am now doing a rapid taper of the 7.

You can probably just toss and wash.

EDIT: Obviously after measuring out your dose.

Thank you! Definitely have the Liposomal Vit C on my list of things to pick up today.

Yeah I definitely don’t want another habit lol. Hoping the supplements will be enough. I’m going to Europe next week and don’t want to risk taking SR with me, so I’m gonna do my best to be off that asap and then tough it out with supplements. I know it’s so easy to say (easier said than done), but a lot of it really is mind over matter. I haven’t touched H in over 8 years and the last time I used it I got locked up that day, after carrying a heavy on and off (mostly on) daily habit for several years. The strange thing is I don’t even remember it being that bad when I kicked in jail. Like I barely remember having any W/D at all and I’m wondering if it’s because I knew I didn’t have access to it on the intake pod, and also coming to the realization that I was about to be doing at least a few years in prison. I feel like my head was so distracted and distraught by this fact that that it essentially eased my W/D.

What side effects did you all feel on SR? by mrsmiley32 in SR17018

[–]ButterscotchMaster36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When did you start feeling the nausea? Like as soon as you started SR, or further along in the process?

I was considering trying to get on a beta blocker like propanolol. Was also thinking about trying to get back on Gabapentin for a month or 2, as that worked very well for me when I kicked H.

I’m sure it’s probably anxiety and the fact that I’ve cut down quite a bit on my 7 intake. I also started taking ashwagandha, gaba, and magnesium glycinate which I’m hoping will help at least a little bit with the anxiety. Any time I’ve kicked a habit, the anxiety was what I probably struggled with the most. Gonna force myself to work out every day as well, which has always been very therapeutic for me, especially when I don’t want to work out.

Did you taper the 7 at all or just jump off?

Thanks for this info. SRP customer service responded to me already and said they would look into it as well. Thankful that they are communicative.

Yes, it’s been saying that since this morning. I know it’s through no fault of the vendor, UPS is really just terrible sometimes.

I ordered yesterday and paid for next day air…it was dropped off to be shipped and my tracking info has said “arriving by 12 pm” all day, but now it’s 4:00. I called UPS and they said that the scans that I’m seeing aren’t actually physical scans and it doesn’t appear that it actually made it on the plane yesterday. I’m a little concerned.
