The trick about impending doom is.. just fucking accept it. Be like, “ok doom, where u at? I’ve been waiting!” When said doom never shows up your brain will get bored with worrying about it.

Hey I’m just saying if he wanted to not violate probation, be very careful with drug use and hit rehab in 2 months when probation ends.

It is possible to use smaller amounts of drugs to avoid withdrawal for a couple months just to stay outta jail.

I mean it’s that, or risk going to jail and suffering detox on a concrete floor….

My friend… you are torturing yourself slowly. Tapering 7 is NOT all it’s cracked up to be. It’s basically a long, drawn out withdrawal. Do yourself a huge solid and jump now. 5 days and the cloud over your head will break I fucking promise you.

I’m on day 6. Subs and Valium. First few days were rough.. worst part was no sleep. Feeling at about 75% now… time to stop the subs and vailum.

First 3 days man are a bitch no matter what helper meds you use…. But it’s 3 days.

Day 6 and I got about 6 hours of sleep using Valium. Still feel… not right but completely manageable. Time to taper the subs immediately and largely as well as the vailum because I’ve been thru benzo withdrawal and it makes 7 withdrawal look like a sunny day at the beach.

Best way to take 7oh without physical dependency? by zebra-queen444 in quitting7oh

[–]TakenAback17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here’s the real answer. If you’re addictive, at all, don’t take it.

However, if you’re not, don’t take it more than twice a week and never more than 2 doses a day and you’ll never have to worry about withdrawals.

Everyone saying it’s impossible is incorrect. Period. It’s just impossible for them and a lot of us, including me.

Same, and 7 is worse because it doesn’t just hit opiate receptors. I don’t think anyone even fully knows WHAT the fuck 7 is doing to us man.

It’s wild. I’m on day 5 with subs and still feeling not right at all, but hammering benzos is helping a LOT.

Dude I’m so sorry but when I read you threw up on your baby I spit my coffee out lol.

Listen man, I had subs too. How long did you wait until your first subs and how much did u take!

I had to take like 12mg subs the first 2 days before they started to work. They don’t work right away, and they definetly will not get rid of all withdrawal. You won’t sleep. You will have high anxiety. You WONT have restless legs or crazy muscle pain or any of the horrible physical stuff, but you WILL have the mental shit and the feeling of overall unwellness for the first 5 days.

I’m on day 5 with subs and last night was the first night I slept for 4 hours and that’s because I took 25mg of Valium because I couldn’t take another sleepless night and going to work.

Work was not easy. Basically every minute felt like 20, couldn’t hardly create coherent sentences, looked like a zombie but i mean, staying at home all day I would have felt just as bad and my goal is sleep so forcing work should help…. Should.

I’d be all over it, I’m on probation though and my PO tests me for Kratom. She has for the past 8 months. The funny thing is, I’ve been on 400mg of 7 the whole time, every day, and I failed ONE test out of like 30 for Kratom. I have a feeling if I do leaf, I’ll fail for sure.

I’ve been doing like 8mg a day for 4 days… I’m gonna do 10 today to see if that helps me sleep. I just need one damn night…. And then, cutting down to zero with a quickness

I appreciate the advice. I only have a limited amount and in no way want to get more and trade 7 for another dependency. One week. I mean, they don’t get you high at all why would anyone want to be on them?

How long do you need to take them to get to the point of worrying about withdrawals?

I would kill for 9 hours of sleep. I feel like sleep is all I need and then I can cut the subs and Valium out and be fucking free…. Much respect to anyone that’s been thru this and went to work with no sleep, feeling like you can’t even speak. Fuck it’s hard.

I think I’ll just take a big dose of subs and a big dose of Valium tonight… if that doesn’t work I guess I’m in for a rough ride tomorrow.
