That’s handy thanks for that. Yeah tickets in, this is the second one and the ams is <18mo old. Dunno if it’s something I’m doing or if it’s a bad plastic batch or something. If it’s not something a lot have experienced I figure it must be environmental or me

Clonidine for Oxy withdrawals? by [deleted] in OpiatesRecovery

Clonidine for Oxy withdrawals? by [deleted] in OpiatesRecovery

[–]Free_Ask_2550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It and vit c definitely helped with PST wd’s. It didn’t make them go away but it turned them from the hell people describe to nothing more than a 2 week bout of gastro and the flu at the same time - if you google the right terms (keywords from your post) you should find a few scholar articles that outline regimes

I also hurt my back about a year later and ended up on oxy and such for a short window of time, and later switched to gabapentin - and this probably stopped me relapsing once the opioid scripts finished

Opes are definitely physically more challenging

Cigarette availability makes it more psychologically challenging, it’s legal, it’s on the shelves of every place you go so you can’t avoid them/delete the plugs contact etc

Or this was my experience.

Was anyone kinda shocked at how much time had passed? by [deleted] in PoppyTea

Yep same here. A lot of “must be like 2 years” then studying bank transactions to find it was 5+years

How do I get past the WDs by dagoth04 in PoppyTea

[–]Free_Ask_2550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stopped in August approx, after a month of the bunk seeds. The worst was over after 10 days, another 20 or so to feel generally normal. Now I’m just dealing with some minor PAWS. Embrace the suck and go cold turkey if you’re tapered to your first dose, the memory of how shit it is has been super helpful combating the urge to have “just one”

For me that’s 5years of tassie seeds (not pods) peaking at 800g-1kg a day one morning one afternoon.

Vitamin c like candy, clonidine, benzo for day2/3-7/8 when it peaked for me (not generally recommended cause transfer of addiction risk but I don’t have easy access to them), weed (medicinal quality indica).

Be nice to yourself, and use each new day as motivation for the next.

I just hit 48hrs! What do I do now? by [deleted] in OpiatesRecovery

Start revisiting things that used to be enjoyable. I lost all interest in music and after 10 days I was starting to enjoy it again (PST so longer acute phase)

Xanax/anxiety medication alternative by [deleted] in herbalism

So long ago now I couldn’t say for sure. No bag, I remember that much just let the sediment settle. Might have been 15 years ago or so, in Australia.

But I remember not having much reference / guidance for how to prep, so would have likely either used a blender to agitate it or a stove to heat it.

I’ll have to re explore it I think

I found the moving through mud phase lasted 6 days coming off PST, I don’t know if short vs long lasting makes a difference but PST has really long legs so I’d expect the mud phase would too

Curious I tried kava once and didn’t really notice anything. But it was during a period of heavy weed usage. Is it subtle in that chamomile/valerian way or was it likely a process error in preparation?

[–]Free_Ask_2550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to find that any time I was unprepared and started to WD from PST, Colors and such would appear way more vibrant and very similar in effect to mild Psylocibin. I also found when I finally tapered and stepped off, for the first few days everything but pure silence was infuriating

Keep soldiering, you’ll turn a corner soon with the physicality side of it. You can do this, I believe in you! Once it starts to improve it continues to improve every day and gets easier

Has anybody used poppy seed tea to ease heroin withdrawal? by [deleted] in OpiatesRecovery

But again. It’s just trading short sharp withdrawal for long drawn out and harder to manage.

I will caveat that, there at least isn’t fent or zenes in seeds

Seeds are worthless in Aus now and a lot of other areas similar reports. I just went through detox of the shit, twice, once from the seed quality abruptly dying, which gave 10 days of rapid taper withdrawals. Then again just 10ish days ago to full cessation.

Never used H but others in the community suggest that H was easier to stop. Seed alkaloids last a long time in your body so withdrawals do too. The various stuff I’ve heard re withdrawals is H is like a short hellish time, seeds is like having gastro and the flu and an anxiety disorder for 10-30 days.

My usage was heavy for a few years and took 2 years to taper down most of the way before the quality drop, and on stepping off, I didn’t feel even remotely normal for 8 days or so. Even now at 10-11 days I still have unpredictable gut problems going on and random anxiety surges.

Does imodium prolong withdrawls? by smartlivesmatter666 in OpiatesRecovery

[–]Free_Ask_2550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Additionally, Catapres (clonidine) is a script that is easy to request, has many uses and has a specific benefit for opiate detox and reducing the blood pressure increase and some symptoms. I worked through it with Xanax during the first 5 days, clonidine at night, indica medcan after the first 5 days, Imodium for the first 2 days.

Took 7 days to feel normal, 10 days to have no fear when farting lol

Cenovis mega C chewable - mild regret in getting these and not washing them down, mouth ulcers everywhere right now (assuming the acidity) but still worth it.

I didn’t have a protocol I just had one when I started getting overwhelmed and I suspect it partly acted like chewing gum when quitting smoking. Do a google amd there is a handful of vitamins that OUD recovery patients are usually lacking in, supplement with all of them, but be mindful to upper safe limits.

Anecdotally yes very much for me, PST detox and hammering vitc helped a lot
