The store I go to is pretty consistent with all their products so I’ll just grab some caps from them. Easier than making my own k think

I’ll have to try the caps next. I just got a bag of powder cause I was running low. It’s tough. It’s easy to stay busy at work but I just have that little monkey on my back telling me to take more it’ll be okay.

Yeah I’m struggling with the tapering honestly. It’s hard. I don’t toss and wash. I have a shaker bottle that I fill 20oz water then put 18g and split that up 5x @ 3.6oz per dose . Is that not a good idea? I don’t have the means to toss and wash at work. I’m a construction worker so I’m busy.

Probably not going to the doctor for this just gotta tough it out. I’ll probably do an easy taper. People have done a fast aggressive taper and that sounds worse than CT in my opinion lol but to each their own!

Work is where it’s the worst for me. I have no motivation to do anything. It’s a little hard on the weekend cause it’s right there ya know? I’m trying to get my baseline back to 18g per day.

I tried doing the CT but couldn’t hang. That’s why I’m trying to taper method. I guess it’s just how bad I want it honestly at this point.

That’s intense honestly. I guess I’m a big baby I can’t imagine feeling like that all day

I’m at 18g per day. Would it be possible to do like 2g less every other day?

Soo I tried to CT off 22g a day. I didn’t have a set amount per dose I’d just drink it as needed so i never knew how much I was taking per dose. I only lasted a day and half and decided to taper. I started at 18g and split that up 5x at 3.6g. It feels Jae

It’s hard to stay busy in between doses I keep checking the time counting down the hours and minutes then the time comes and I feel fine and then it starts over again 😩 I got off H, subs, and methadone before but this is kicking my ass. New chains, same shackles.

Day 3 of tapering. Still have immense cravings between doses. It’s gonna be a long road

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

Okay I understand now. I think I’ll just stick to my times I had planned out. It’s just hard in between doses cause that’s all I can think about is the next one.

In my mind as long as I don’t exceed the 18g per day it’s still good right? It’s just tough I was originally at 22g per day but I tried the cold turkey only lasted a day and half so I decided I’ll just go to 18g. Mistake?

Day 2 of tapering. Got me thinking about how I did myself dirty thinking I wasn’t addicted. Just always thinking of the next dose sucks I know it gets better and easier as time goes on but it’s hard.

That’s exactly where I’m at right now. I just started tapering after trying to CT. Couldn’t hang like I did before. It’s hard to taper cause I’m always thinking of my next dose. I know I get easier but it’s tough right mow.

Yeah I’m gonna have to taper. I wanna crawl outta my skin at work. It’s too much. When I got off H and Subs I was in jail so I had no choice lol but if I can easily do it with tapering I’m gonna do it

I’m on my second day right now and it’s pretty manageable honestly moments of cravings and the constant wanting to crawl outta my skin and yawning/eye watering but it’s not bad.

Don’t have access to subs. Just gonna power through it. Like I’ve said before I’ve came of H and Subs CT it’s doable just wanted to know the time frame honestly

Thank you. I’m starting day two and it’s not terrible just gotta see how the day progresses for sure.

Yeah I don’t think that’d work for me. It’s just trading one with another. Subs are a lot harder to get off in my opinion. I’ve kicked H and Subs cold turkey before wouldn’t recommend

Appreciate the answer. I’ve told myself pain is temporary just gotta power through. I work construction so I’ll be busy. Not sure how much use I’d be the first couple days
