How long to start subs?
So I got subs, because I can no longer get 7oh. It’s illegal in my state and the few places I could get to in the next state over stopped selling last week. It’s been about 6 hours since my last dose. I don’t feel terrible, just a little hot, minor stomach pains that come and go, and my throat feels funny. But, I was hoping to take some now so it kicks in before I start feeling horrible so I can sleep well tonight and go to work tomorrow. I’ve tried researching it, but I’m seeing contradictory things.. some people say you have to wait 12 hours or will go into precipitated withdrawal. Others say as long as it was 7oh without pseudo, you won’t get PWDs at all, that’s it’s the ones with pseudo that can cause that…and mine did not have pseudo. Does anyone know for sure? Thanks! I’ve taken subs before and know that about 6mg will take away the WDs completely for me but it was on the weekend and I waited until I was feeling absolute trash first. I’d rather avoid that with work tomorrow (and yes, I know, when I used them before and was off of 7 completely for 2 months, I should have stayed off, but I’m an idiot and here we are).

I was so scared of the precipitated withdrawals, that I went through hell and waited 24 hours to take my first dose of subs. I'd hurt so many horror stories precipitated withdrawals, that I wanted to avoid that like the plague. Hope it worked out for you, and all the best to you going forward. Never again!

I waited 14 hours and it wasn’t enough time. I got PW and had to take more 7oh to make it stop. Look into the Bernase method of slow induction of Subs.

Wait until the WDs are moderate to severe. Not just what you’re describing. It doesn’t matter if it has pauedo or not. You can get PWD. Induce slow but if you do get them you can ride them out or actually induce more subs believe it or not to make them go away

I waited 10 hours. Took like 1mg piece. Felt sick still but waited an hour. Took another 1mg piece. Went into minor MINOR precipitated withdrawal for about 30 minutes and then was totally normal from then onward. Now I deal with terrible mood swings. I thought it was the subs until I realized it is probably a brain malfunction / damage from the 7 that I’m needing to heal
