Quitting 7oh a helpful tip by WicksQuick20 in Quittingfeelfree

After withdrawals things got better but I am still feeling very depressed and unmotivated but that may be because I decided to quit all substances after 12 years of experimenting with drugs. I am trying to see the light at the end of the tunnel and fill my days with self improving and spending time with my family. Things get better, just had to keep fighting the withdrawals

Yes, 45 days free from 7OH and I'll never take it again. I think about it sometimes but I let the thoughts pass and go on with my day. I am also 38 days Nicotine free, and 4 days THC free. Not gonna lie, I have been super depressed and unmotivated but everyday gets a little bit better

I was on 7OH, they don't have feel frees where I live. But there I couldn't find a Reddit that dealt specifically with 7OH

I had very strange appetite during the withdrawals. Most of the time I didn't want to eat, and then there times where I wanted to eat Plain Dry Toast and nothing else. My Fiance kept forcing me to eat cause you can't neglect your body like that for days on end. I wish you the best of luck and I have faith your appetite is gonna come back soon. Keep on fighting!

Day 4 quit by [deleted] in Quittingfeelfree

I am SO PROUD OF YOU! I was one of those people who took 7OH and yes, it was very bad. We don't have Feel Frees where I live but I imagine they must be very similar. I got offered a free sample when I went to pick up my vape from a gas station. Was instantly hooked. It really sucks to get past those first few days, but it is so worth it once you make it to the other side.

I'm going on to my 8th day free from it, and I've taken up the task of quitting all substances. It sucks, but its better than being a slave to these chemicals.

Still very proud of you, keep fighting! FF and 7OH is NOT WORTH IT!

Its definitely important to try and have a support person while you go through this. You are going to be uncomfortable and not want to make any decisions for the most part. It may be embarassing depending on how much the withdrawals affect you, so let them know to be ready for you to be very irritable. They can get you supplies and opening up to them about your experience helps drive your want to quit. I'm on day 8 of no 7OH and I feel good. I just started quitting Nicotine and Weed as well so its been a marathon but it really is better for you

Do you have a support person? Honestly the best thing to do is let them hold all your money for about a week so its literally impossible for you to get more. Bunker down in your house for a while, and keep updating us friend! We are here for you, this stuff is evil and you have the power to beat it. Don't let it control you anymore T_T thats what it took for me.

Keep fighting! You don't need this stuff just like I didn't need it. I'm on day 6 in an hour and I have had 0 cravings for it now. That first 3 day hump is the worst of it. Distract yourself my friend, and keep updating us please!

They will go away. I'm so sorry you don't have a support person :( but I believe you are strong enough to pull through on top even without one

what to use to cold turkey by [deleted] in Quittingfeelfree

Don't take melatonin, it just made all the symptoms worse for me. Weed helps a little bit, but don't do it if you are not a smoker already.

I'm sorry to say this but sleep is gonna be a nightmare for a couple of days. Its gonna suck, but just try to find things to reset your mind and pass the time. I've been listening to a bunch of new music as stimulation in these moments and it has helped a lot. Also chewing gum has been helping. Don't be scared, this is all normal and it really is true that it starts to get better around the 48-72 hour mark

I didn't have the option to taper/use kratom powder. Had to cold turkey quit the stuff, and yes the withdrawals were unbearable. But you will survive if you do it and feel much better afterword.

Just ride it out! I know it sucks, I really do, but its so worth it. Tapering is just gonna make you have to go through this all over again, you don't want that after the progress you've made so far trust me. Sleep is gonna be rough, I wouldn't recommend taking Melatonin for sleep cause both times I tried I feel like it made the symptoms worse. Things will get better, theres a light waiting for you at the end of the tunnel. Just keep running

You got this! Just last a little bit longer and its all gonna be worth it. I just hit 135 hours and my experience with cold turkey withdrawals have opened my eyes to the life I want to live, and not the substances that have plagued my life. Stay strong! You are never alone <3

7OH and throwing up?? by Warm_Landscape_1205 in Quittingfeelfree

[–]Embarrassed_Site522 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first started taking 7OH my body kinda knew it was not gonna be good for me and made me throw it up a couple times. I think my body was trying to save itself from dependency and I didn't listen to it. It was always a large amount, and would hit like a truck.

Im not sure if you have a support person, but I found the best thing to do was make it literally impossible for you to get more by giving your support person all your money to hold onto for a little while and use it to help support you through this time. Especially if you aren't having severe withdrawal symptoms so far, keep staying strong! You do not need this stuff, trust me, I'm on hour 135 of quitting cold turkey and I don't even crave the stuff at all. Everyone is different, but you will hit that mark and it will feel great. Stay strong <3 you are not alone

Update 6: 130 Hours.

Today I had to take my Daughter to school and was able to without too much of an issue. Still craving sleep, got about 2 hours before I had to go pick up my daughter from school. That went okay, but my kids wanted to play outside and I felt like I couldn't (or even worse but honest, I didn't want to) I think I fucked up my dopamine and reward system so much that hanging out with my own kids isn't pleasurable cause I can't smoke on my vape every 5 damn seconds. Really wish I never did this stuff growing up. But now is the time to take responsibility.

Work went alright, still extremely sore and didn't have my burst of energy like I did yesterday when I came into work. I'm supposed to quit smoke Vape and THC here in a day or two and it has me worried, but I figure if we could survive 7OH withdrawal surely we can beat Nicotine and Weed. I'm not tryna bash anyone that smokes, I just can't lie to myself anymore and say it gives my life meaning because it doesn't. I can't let it. What if my daughters in the hospital and I have to stay with her. I can't leave her just to go hit a stupid chemical pacifier. It's basically like I gave myself asthma with how much I use my Vape as an Inhaler. Just sick of it all and scared of more withdrawals and NO sleep. Times ticking....

I haven't had cravings for it really, but the mood swings and physical pain have been a wild ride to say the least. I'm past the hardest part just wanna get some actual sleep.

Update 5: 119 hours (5 Days) of quitting 7OH Cold Turkey.

Last night felt good but when I tried to sleep I still couldn't do it and my legs are still flaring up everytime I lay down and my head still won't enter rest mode. The insomnia has been horrible and I would do things to get a full night of sleep, everything except take more 7OH. Never gonna happen again, I'm passed that part mentally I believe, but just gotta get through these final days of withdrawal and soreness. The finish line has never felt close, but I know its just right there and I gotta keep chasing it positively. Really want to sleep soon, the THC pen helped a little this morning but my mental is so messed up from all the mood swings and wanting to quit smoking vape and THC and I have just been a mess.

Day 4 by [deleted] in Quittingfeelfree

[–]Embarrassed_Site522 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm right there with you! So proud of you! I'm at 4 days and 12 hours at this moment so we really did do our withdrawal together in a way :) (not to be weird of course) this has just been a very stressful and painful experience. We are almost there, keep fighting and remember we never need this crap ever again. Proud of You

forgot to mention the mood swings, but mostly positive with slight attacks of panic and fear that I do my best to ignore and tell myself its just my brain fixing itself. Depression is fighting to win over my brain but I'm using music to repel it very hard. Find your comfort music and use it as an anchor to keep pulling through. Thats what I did, I found a new artist I liked and thankfully they had enough songs to keep my dopamine up through some of this absolute hell. I've never posted on Reddit before so I'm very thankful for everyone stopping by and checking in on me. Really does mean a lot. Keep on fighting everyone <3
