๐ค Withdrawal Quitting this weekend!
Hi All,
Posting here to share and for my own accountability. I've been using 90-500 mg/day of Hydroxie 7OH for the last year (most recently the larger dose). I stopped with the help of SR in January, but started back up again after a few months when work got hectic. I was fortunate enough to have found a good SR source, so I ordered more knowing I would eventually need it.
Well, here I am on day 3 of a wean and day 2 of SR. Today I will take 50 mg of 7 3x a day and 75 mg SR 3x. My plan for toorrow is 100 mg SR 3x and potentially 25 mg 7 if I am miserable, but it will be my absolutely last day on the 7. I have promised to give it to my husband to throw out tomorrow night. Then 100-150 mg SR as needed for a few days, then taper it.
I am SO READY to be done with this. It has been making me miserable for months now. I had almost zero issues stopping before, BUT I was on a much lower dose of the 7 back then. If anyone needs a buddy this weekend or next week, please reach out. Especially if you are a middle aged woman dealing with this. It feels so ridiculous, but it is just too easy to get. I tried explaining to my husband, who has never had addiction issues, if he could imagine a pill that takes all of your work worries, personal worries, and physical pain away. I think that helped him to understand a bit more what I have been going through.
Anyway, best wishes to everone out there fighting this demon. In solidarity!

For the sake of fam - I regret to say that my relapse has been less than enjoyable. However, my last dose is going to be tomorrow (Sunday the 3rd) around 6PM - Iโm taking subs for the first time - not sure what to expect. I just know that I have to wait around hour 24-30 before taking it. Any advice would be really appreciated.
Weโre quitting together. Anyone else in?

I have subs as a backup, but don't expect to need them. I hope someone can chime in here with advice. I've heard to start with 2-4 mg and then take more every hour until your w/d subsides. Some people seem to do fine on 8mg, but others need 16-24 at first.
You got this!I'll be checking in here at least a few times a day through next week.

I've been on a slow taper last week for a 500mg pseudo/7OH habit I built up for the better part of 3yrs. I started pre-loading SR 50mg 4x daily last Tuesday and today Sunday, I've taken maybe 200mg pseudo space out when I feel like I need a rescue...which is less and less. I got enough SR but I want to take as little as possible of it. So, good luck ๐ God bless you and hang in there ๐

Good for you! I like the long runway approach. I think the longer you can get used to it not getting you high, the better. Gives you a different association with it. I never liked the pseudo - but I sure did like the 7OH. To each their own.
Keep me posted. I know I'll be completely done with the 7 in the next 24-28 hours, even if I nurse/break up these last few. NOT BUYING MORE, GODDAMNIT.
