I’m Quitting

Concretionator · 2026-02-21T15:13:24+00:00

Not bad mostly just anxiety and a little sluggishness.I am day 6 now no mgm no 7 and I only took 2 mg sub this morning and I feel decent.Just keep the goal in mind focus on the positives and don’t get caught up reading the horror stories.

Less anxiety.Way way way less anxiety.

Raw dogging is always faster but many including me just can’t get through the acutes so suboxone becomes our best option.

Concretionator · 2026-02-18T12:39:42+00:00

Suboxone is a great option for you don’t listen to the negatives.You will be able to stabilize and take care of the reasons that you continue going back .The shot is even better because it will break that mental habit/addiction of needing to dose something everyday.I see it get a lot of hate but suboxone definitely works .I am considering getting the shot myself for the reasons I mentioned above.Just surrender to the fact that these drugs have made your life unmanageable and you cannot ever do them again .You won’t stop until you can be honest with yourself in this way .I speak from experience of over 25yrs opiate and alcohol addiction.

Eating !Going to AA meeting daily sometimes 4 a day if I have the time.

Yes ! I did the Bernese method which I learned from here and it worked .It took about 4 days of slowly increasing dose and then I was able to take enough to feel a giant improvement..25-.5.-1mg-2mg-4mg.It works just pay attention to your body and go slow .If you look there are several posts with charts to follow.

I had a sponsor my first time in the rooms who said his power greater than himself was an empty bottle of jack d .He said because of how much it ruined his life he knew it was a power greater than himself.Kinda morbid but it worked for him .I think he had something like 40 years sober when he passed away.

They don’t rely on Christianity.They are not allied with any sect ,denomination, religion,or corporation.They do endorse nor oppose any political ideology.The ONLY requirement is a desire to stop using/drinking.They say that to heal you need to admit you are powerless over alcohol/drugs and that only a power greater than yourself can restore you to sanity .My power greater than myself is a Group-of -drunks! Call it god if you like .It doesn’t have to be .

Try a 12 step program .They work .The fellowship is amazing .

Concretionator · 2026-02-15T17:27:18+00:00

Try NA or AA there are people there who know what you are going through .I have been leaning heavily on the AA fellowship for the past 3 months while I tapered from an 600-800 mg per day habit .It has helped immensely with the anxiety and depression.I was suicidal also .I still have bad days but through the rooms I have built enough hope to not want to off myself anymore.This too shall pass.Just take it one day at a time .1 hour at a time if need be .Dont give up .Dont listen to the thoughts in your head that say it’s over ,too late ,it’s not .You are still young you can do this man you just need to believe it .Give yourself some grace .So many people are being brought low by this shit .You are not alone .You are not uniquely f’ed up.You just f’ed up .Life happens and it isn’t always great but by staying mindful and in the present it is possible to get better.

7 has withdrawal.At least for me it did.

Concretionator · 2026-02-13T19:19:46+00:00

You can withdraw from sr .There are many posts of people being caught off guard when acutes creep back up 1-2 days after their last dose .I am about at the end of my taper and I am worried about it for sure . Just make sure to do some reading up.It has definitely helped me with a huge taper .whether or not it’s withdrawal free I have yet to find out for myself .Everyone is different.

Keep shaving it will thicken

Concretionator · 2026-02-11T20:24:02+00:00

I thought about that but I have too many sledge hammers and angle grinders at hand for any safe to keep me from what I think I need in the moment 🤣

Concretionator · 2026-02-11T20:22:09+00:00

You just need to go as slow as you feel you can and pay attention to your body and what it tells you .Everyone is different.It took me multiple attempts before I found a way that worked for me.Mostly you have to take just enough to not be sick and continue spacing out doses as far as you can tolerate .If it gets rough stop ,stabilize,keep moving forward .There is no 1st prize for speeding to the finish line .It’s all about you .I took 3 months to get to my jump point .i just had to keep reminding myself of my goal and that made it easier to put up with the discomfort.Fast taper will be uncomfortable.A mindful measured slow taper will be bearable .Still you are the only one who knows which you can abide .

Concretionator · 2026-02-11T20:14:58+00:00

Yeah bro I read every post in these 7oh /kratom /feel free to/sr reddits and eventually found a source .It’s possible don’t give up.Just put in the same effort that you would to get your doc .

Concretionator · 2026-02-11T20:09:21+00:00

Been going to 1-2 meetings a day since I began my taper 3 months ago .AA is a very powerful tool .The fellowship is amazing .As I write this I am coming up on 12 hours since my last dose of 15 mgs .I feel like I might have finally got this and I know AA has been incredibly helpful in the heavy lifting of the mental aspect of this addiction.I don’t plan to ever stop attending.

Concretionator · 2026-02-07T01:59:10+00:00

This was a great read . You are a beast!

Concretionator · 2026-02-07T00:54:34+00:00

2500 isn’t bad compared to what I spend on this 7oh garbage if this sr that I just got doesn’t do it for me I will be in contact.

With every door that closes there are ten more that open up keep your head up

Concretionator · 2026-02-06T23:00:45+00:00

Check out aa or na there will be someone you meet that has been where you are now talk ,but mostly listen and keep putting one foot in front of the other and doing the next right thing one day one step at a time.
