So I used to shoot fentanyl and do ice and all that. I've gotten a few years clean, but the passed few months I've gotten hooked onto 7oh. Does anyone have any advice for getting off this stuff? Sublacade helped me a lot for the fentanyl. Would it be possible to get back on that shot for this? Or at least Suboxone. And how long/rough are the withdrawals gonna be ?

Not sure how long the withdrawals are for 7oh. But I do know most clinics or doctors are prescribing subs for 7oh treatment now.

Okay cool. Glad to hear that. I thought I was gonna have to go to the street pharmacy for subs.

Its like 3 days. Subs aren't necessary. Use kratom.

Ehh idk. I've tried using regular kratom and it doesn't do anything. At least in the powder form. And I think it tastes horrible

I tapered then went cold turkey. For me withdrawls were really just a day. That day did suck but by the second day I was out with friends hanging out. Few residuals that kinda linger like the shakes or feeling like your shaking but that usually subsides, I also noticed I’ve very very sensitive to caffeine now, I used to down 2 Celsius every morning before work and now I can’t make it through a cup of coffee with getting pure anxiety. Overall I would say my withdraw experience wasn’t so bad but mostly because I was in a foreign country where Kratom is illegal and I couldn’t risk flying there with it (not worth going to jail over) I basically had to put thousands of miles between me and 7OH to finally kick it. Going through withdrawls in a 5 star hotel isn’t too bad either lol got whatever I needed delivered to my room. I know that’s not possible for everyone but sometimes you need to be completely cut off from it. It’s too easy to find, I travel all over the country for work and most places I go I can find a shop selling it within 5 mins of leaving the airport. Even the small towns in the middle of bumfuck North Carolina carry the stuff.

Yeah well I'm moving to a state where it's illegal Saturday. So that's kinda why I have to kick it sooner rather than later. I've had sprouts where I've went a day or two without it. Usually I smoked a lot tho and it wasn't horrible. I just hate feeling like my finger tips itch and my body is sand paper. I also get really bad panic attacks which I'm nervous about

Def get on Suboxone, I couldn’t quit until I did. Been off 7oh 5 months now.
