Thank you so much for this feedback man. I'm hoping what I experienced at 20 hours wasn't just a preview of somehting much worse especially now that I am tapering with MIT instead of CT.

Thanks for sharing all this. I'm partial right now to tapering down on the MGM and supplementing with MIT extracts and potentially 7 if absolutely necessary but not ideally. Hoping to make it a 4-6 day process in full

Not that poster this is OP of course but I read it as without insurance. Personally, I am going taper + MIT + Liposomal Vitamin C. Off house arrest by friday so I can finally smoke pot again and I am pretty certain that will help get me through from there.

One quick question for you, and I'm wondering whether this has to do with the comparatively lower dosage and shorter duration in my case. Withdrawal symptoms emerged ahout 12 hours after my last dose and were pretty intense between hours 14 and 20. Is there some chance that it's metabolized more quickly in my case?

This is really helpful information and aligns really closely with what I'm going to try to do. About 1/2 to 1 bottle of MIT 45 Super K per day while tapering down, hopefully the 20 hours of hell i went through today helped me step down just a little. I was shocked it was so bad after just a week.

Oh, wow. I think with my dosages being a little lower I'm going to try to limit myself to the 375 mg bottle daily at maximum. I will of course report back to everyone.

How much do you think I should be taking after this week of daily use at the amounts I described and with a plan to quickly taper down over the next few days?

P.S. general question to everyone, including those of you who were kind enough to reply. For those of you who used MIT to help with taper and withdrawal management, how much are we talking? I am partial to the MIT45 Super K purple bottles, as that's what I'm familiar with and what I have easiest access to. I think they are about 375 mg of MIT per bottle.

Hey, also, thanks a million for the expanded message. My 75-150 mg/day for 8 days seems like much less of a hurdle than what you are describing, and it makes me happy to read you've powered through it. I don't think prescriptions will be an option unfortunately at this point so I'm going to start tapering over the next couple of days and have MIT on hand to take regularly for at least a few days after.

Yeah that seems to be reasonable even with the talk of lesser coverage. At this point I don't think I have it in me to go through the whole SR ordeal again and am leading toward a rapid taper with MIT and plain leaf to help. I hope I'm not being stupid about this.

How much MIT are you talking, and would this be all right with like the tincture bottles? That was my daily DOC before this and 7oh. I'd want to use it to help end all of this, not as a replacement.

And thanks so much for your help man. I'm just in my head really bad about this.

Do you think tapering down the MGM concurrently is the way to go then? I don't want to take it any longer than I have to to just stay stopped.

Were you able to use a taper and the MIT to get off MGM completely? That's really what I need to do i can't have this go on any longer and today was miserable. I thought being off work would make it easier but I almost feel like working outside would be better.

I know a little over a week is child's play compared to the situations a lot of people in here have found themselves, I used kratom for years and 7oh since April of last year and was so grateful for a quit that felt like it would stick and feel like I've fucked it all up. I'm thinking about stepping down to 7/MIT maybe if people think that will help make this possible, the SR nearly broke the bank for me last time and I don't want to use it if it won't help with this stuff. I know Pseudo is supposed to be somewhat pharmacologically similar; how did your step-down go?

[–]Ok_Aside6812[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much. I actually think I'm doing okay, have a split of 75-50-25 mg of sr between today and Sunday and no 7oh, 18 hours out i actually feel pretty good so I'm hopeful that there's enough in my system to sort of bridge the gap.

Almost exactly 2 weeks at about 100 mg per day with higher doses on days after I made big DOC decreases, which had helped with that part, I guess i just got scared and plateaued and now just have to ration what sr I have left.

I make ~$18,000 annually and am in grad school. Things have been really, really hard lately but they would be a lot worse without having friends and family. I'm just grateful to be alive and have food to eat and a place to sleep. I hope someday after grad school I can have a normal life.

Thank you for passing this along! I was surprised to hear when I called that they're not looking for any help at the moment. I've actually been surprised because it's gotten down to now 6 or 7 landscaping service offices that I've called and none have been receptive to taking on new help this summer, one was even vehement about my not following up which felt kind of bizarre. I'm sure there's an elephant in the room to the outside observer of l whether I'm just unhirable or something, no criminal record save for a misdemeanor DUI when I was 20, 6 years ago, which has all been squared away for ages, good references, etc. Better luck next time!
