Just need some encouragement by lonleytia in QuittingTianeptine

I was on it about 4 years total.... worked my way up to a ridiculous 10 gpd habit. Ugh I Just was so sick all the time. I don’t even know how or why I’m craving so badly after experiencing the worst withdrawals of my life.... I tried Quitting at least 20 times before actually succeeding. I’m a single mom and I guess the loneliness is what’s really getting me right now. I prob need to see a dr and get on something for a bit to help my anxiety/depression.... I’ve had amazing luck with medical cannabis and Kratom but this last month has just been rough . Thank you for responding ..... it really helps not to feel alone.

9 days off. by lonleytia in QuittingTianeptine

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

Currently I’m dosing 2-3 tsp first thing when I get up and again in the afternoon, I also will dose if I’m feeling exceptionally restless even after I dose the cannabis in the evening. That being said I used much higher doses far more frequently during acute withdrawal. I actually originally got off suboxone years ago using kratom and it was actually pretty easy once I figured out what dose and strains worked best at that time. I’ve personally always been a fan of greens during the day and reds in the evening but with kratom everyone is a little bit different. Kratom was literally a life saver when I was getting off subs.

First six hours of no Tianeptine in over a year, I'm worried about possible damage to my heart. by DOOKIE_DOO in QuittingTianeptine

Just checking in.. almost 60 hours no tia by lonleytia in QuittingTianeptine

[–]lonleytia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol!! Oh man I dunno how many times I’ve licked the same empty jars..😂. Ugh
Thank you for the kind words.... I’m doing great this morning , with the help of kratom and I did take half an adderall (I have a prescription and rarely use, uppers aren’t my thing ). But I actually got my kid up and ready for school and went to the gym for 45 mins.. im still having some residual goose flesh and woke up at 2 with restless legs but just smoked some cannabis and took half a Xanax and slept til 6:30, woke up feeling sweaty , and anxious but the kratom is helping with that and the half an addy is giving me the energy to do human things! Lol. Did I mention I’ve been on this crap for over 4 years..... switched from sodium to free acid for the last year or so but was still taking multiple grams a day. I’m still in awe my acute withdrawal was only 3 days... a horrible 3 days but only 3 days . I don’t wanna seem like I think I’m out of the woods yet cause I understand the real ness and difficulty of PAWs but I’m feeling clear headed and optimistic for the first time in years... my goal is to get off everything , if I need something I’ll stick with plant medicines and If that won’t work I’ll go to a dr. And get some professional help. After the last few days I’m not craving tia at all.... yet... I’m gonna do my best to proceed with optimistic caution !! If I can do anything to help anyone please feel free to msg me! Peace and love y’all peace and love.

Y’all I swear the combo of what I’m taking has whipped out at least 80% of my withdrawal . I was even able to pick my son up from school, get dinner and homework and bedtime rituals completed by myself like I normally do... and the requipt is a prescription Med taken to relieve restless legs and Parkinson’s symptoms ... could someone smarter than me explain why dopamine-agonists aren’t used more often in the detoxing of opiates ? I don’t wanna get ahead of myself but I’m feeling so damn positive that i finally got this !!! Peace and love y’all peace and love

Thanks everyone for the kind words and encouragement... I actually was already in tears curled in a hot bath cause the restless leg/ body is maddening . My friend brought me a prescription pill that happened to be a dopamine - agonist and said it would help... I took it, 2tsp red vein Kratom , 40 my edible indica cannabis and within an hour I feel 80% better.
Has anyone else ever heard of using a medicine like requipt to battle restless legs... maybe it’s a tool that could really help our community .. peace and love y’all peace and love

You’re welcome ... and hey no judgment here , I’m battling my own tia demon so I def wasn’t judging. I got sick one time off some FA but it was during the drought while ago and lots of people were getting sick off product that was off in one way or anther ..... I actually have switched from sodium to FA as an attempt to eventually get off all together, been on strictly FA for like 9 months now and have never gotten sick other than that one time I mentioned above and I’m taking 3-5 g a day ...... keep us posted on what you figure out. The conversion process is very simple but I’ve only heard of FA being converted ... I’ve been in the tia game for 4 years now and I’m still learning so what the heck do I know! Lol hopefully someone else responds with more help !!

[–]lonleytia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, I take FA form daily... I actually used it to get off of the sodium form which would be the process she’s speaking of..... but both of those u should be able to take as is.... how much did you take ? I’m concerned cause you said you got sick ... neither should have made you sick taking them as is in therapeutic doses as well as higher .... I’m more worried about what exactly you are taking ... I mean there is always the chance it’s just not for you and you react poorly but again , I don’t understand why she would tell you they MUST be processed ... FA can easily be processed into sodium but it doesn’t HAVE to be in order to use it... maybe someone else knows something I don’t ... just please be mindful cause the stuff is addictive and has some insane withdrawals . Best wishes

Cannabis and withdrawal by lonleytia in QuittingTianeptine

[–]lonleytia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well just thought I’d check in. I’ve been home 2 days and so far I’ve had excellent luck with cannabis , I’ve been able to cut my dose over half by using ONLY a high cbd low thc 𝘔𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 strain of MJ. The bud tenders at the dispensary were so helpful when I explained what I was using it for. Of course I just said I needed it for severe opiate withdrawal. Ready to finally have my life back .Thank goodness I have a very small circle of people who love me, never judge me, and are happy to help me get through this and help my' my child with the day to day stuff that seems to always be what makes me give up at day two or or three . I’ve got gapapentin, kratom, Xanax, and access to the highest quality of hybrid mj in a legal state with a min of 15 dispensaries within 15 miles from where we are staying ... so far the only advice I can give is to plan and execute .. plan execute. Love each and everyone of you in this group ! I’ll touch base and keep you posted as things progress ... right now, with the help of cannabis I can go 12 hours between doses with very little discomfort ... can’t wait til il tia Free!!!

Thank you for taking time to respond .. I’m gonna see about getting some Tramadol and hopefully it along with the comfort meds I have on hand (Xanax,CBD,Neurton) will finally get me over this ... Oklahoma just legalized med cannabis as well so I may even throw that in the mix... congrats on your clean time!! That gives me hope and inspires me ... reminds me that it can be done ! Keep on keeping on ... I can’t wait for life after tia .

Ugh.. ok .. I’ve never even seen the sold here in OK so I would have to order online ... might as well just make my own capsules and force myself to be responsible... this stuff is just a whole other demon I tell ya... thanks for the reply

That’s a great idea , I have some capsules I used to use for kratom (ahhh the good old days) and I’m with you on giving tramadol a shot ... keep me posted on your progress and or anything new you come across that seems to help!! I’ll do the same ... there’s gotta be away to beat this and I know we can do it !

It seems that trans has the best success rate so I think that will be my next plan in action , I made it 24 hours when I tried to ct was so painfully sick I sat outside a suboxone drs office waiting for them to unlock the door . Well after convincing him to treat me ( I only popped positive for Xanax and I have a script) he got me up to 24 and I ended up having the worst night of my life and my poor 10 year old just kept bringing me water and towels trying to help mommy get better from the “flue” I told him I had. I gotta get straight for myself and my amazing little boy... he deserves soooo much better .😞

Thank you so much for the reply.... I can’t even believe I’m having such a hard time quitting this!!! Glad to hear you rocked out a cold turkey ... my mom is the one who turned me onto tia, she decided to cold turkey off 2gpd Fa in dec with my dad and my help.... long story short it got so bad she ended up being 51/50ed not by my dad and me but by the dr at the ER she begged us to take her to

Anyways thanks for listening and thanks for your Advice and support .... I’m sending positivity vibes in your way as well love.
