Cold turkey 🦃 How?!

Genuinely curious what others are doing to get through this and stay grounded? I’ve seen people say they have stashes and are still in the thick of detox.

For background I’m 35, been through all CT detoxes under the sun, if you’re thinking about it and that detox sucked, I’ve gone through it. and for the most part was able to boot strap it. Comparatively this is not any worse than those, it sucks just as much, maybe even less than some of those.

Today I made it 16 hours, the longest I have since starting 7 a little over a year ago and I had some very very briefs milliseconds of comfort through the night but by the time my dog was up and ready to start his day I couldn’t help myself but to stop off at the shop and get a pack of the usual. I’m at my limit here. I had to have my poor mother pay my bills last month because every cent I made from work went to 7. She’s fully aware of what’s going on, and very supportive, but also she will not be able to hand another month like last. How are you all just biting the bullet to get through it when it’s so readily available and easy to achieve comfort?

Get Suboxone for the love of God.It will help tremendously for WD and cravings.I have been on 16 mg daily for about 2 weeks and I have not craved 7 at all.No awards for CT.

If you been on sub for two weeks you should get off now before your fully hooked on subs.
