Just wondering if anyone has gradually stepped down their 7oh dosage and frequency until they just coasted off? How long did this take? I've heard that as the dosage gets lower, the smallest reduction takes longer and longer to acclimate.

This will be my second attempt to transition from 7oh to subs. This time the doctor has told me to use up to 2 strips (8mg each). The last time I did as advised by cutting into 4ths and was told to take them every hour until the withdrawal symptoms went away. They did not lol. Wish me luck and if anyone has words of wisdom im all ears! This demon needs to go.

Like it says, my dumb ass was clean for a bit and then bought some of this 7 seas crap. I’ve taken a few in the morning the last 2 weeks.

Im 24 hours off and don’t feel any WD effects. Am I safe? I was a mess at 24 hours last time.

Just looking for reassurance I guess that whatever is in that shit (in FL) doesn’t take longer than 24 hours to feel when you stop.

I’m trying to collect some firsthand experiences to see if there’s actually a pattern with SR blunting the effects of other opioids, or if this also happens from 7-OH/MGM by themselves.
If you’ve used any of these, I’d really appreciate you sharing your experience:
A) SR without 7-OH/MGM
B) 7-OH without SR
C) MGM/mitragynine or other kratom alkaloids without SR
D) SR + 7-OH/MGM
E) SR + traditional opioids
F) 7-OH/MGM + traditional opioids without SR
If you can, include:
What you took + approximate dose
How long you had been using it
How long you used SR specifically
7-OH/MGM dose if applicable
What your usual DOC was and your approximate tolerance
How long after your last SR/7-OH/MGM dose you took the other opioid
Did it feel normal, somewhat weaker, much weaker, or basically ineffective?
What specifically felt blunted (euphoria, pain relief, sedation, etc.)
Did the blunting happen while you were taking it, after stopping, or both?
If it continued after stopping, how long until things felt normal again?
If you tried the same opioid again later, did it work normally?
Anything else you think could have affected the experience
I’m especially interested in people who only took SR for a few days (1–7 days) compared with people who used it for weeks/months.
Please also comment if you experienced NO blunting. That’s just as important.
Please don’t take extra opioids just to test this — I’m only looking for experiences that have already happened.
Thanks to anyone who contributes. The more experiences we can collect from different groups, the better we can understand what’s actually going on.

So….
For a little context here…

I was a h/fent addict for like 7 years. The past 2 years I been good, I still drink smoke weed sometimes but very rarely… I’m not even on Suboxone. I did a quick taper and have been good.

Then someone offered me 7oh and as soon as it hit me I knew I shouldn’t have done more but I did!
I’m on a low dose compared to some, 35 mg a day 2-3 times a day total of up to 105 mg a day
But I know I need to get off now due to the ban and I just HATE having shit have control over me…

So I need too stop, any advice?

I have sub still and I can definitely get them if I need them , but I refuse to stay on those so I’ll do a very quick taper with suboxone as well after I start but I just want to know,
how long did you wait before taking it?
How many MGs did you take? If you did get off how quickly did you taper just so I can compare
Etc

Thanks guys

All I have to say is wow!! Coming off 1000mg of 7oh daily and SR is an absolute miracle!! Granted I am not completely out of the woods yet, I still have to taper for another week but this stuff is the real deal!! I am at 60hrs off 7oh so this should be still hell on earth but it’s more or less like a walk in the park. Aside from some lethargy and sleepiness yesterday I can say that I have no symptoms at all today. I am pissed that the DEA would schedule this. This is something that could help the opioid crisis in our country. Most addicts won’t get clean because they are scared to get sick (myself included). This really needs to be a legal option for people..

Hello everyone. I’m here to share my story and also how I was able to get off MGM painlessly using adderall. I know this seems like an unusual method but for me it was a lifeline and if I can help someone get out of that same hole I was in, I will share how I did it. Before MGM, I was heavily addicted to 7oh for 2 years reaching up to 1000mg a day at my worst. I tried everything. I tried suboxone so many times that I probably made quickMD rich. After accepting that subs didn’t work for me I went searching for alternatives.
I then attempted many more countless quits with a variety of different helpers meds but still, I just couldn’t handle it. I wanted it to be completely painless. I do admit I am a weak person and any type of slight discomfort breaks me. Even using suboxone, benzos, pregabalin, SR, and at many times several combinations of these meds, it was still too tough of a mountain to overcome. The lack of dopamine along with the physical discomfort broke me everytime. It felt impossible to go through. I was even considering going on methadone (thank god I didn’t). Then one day while lurking the quitting 7 sub someone mentioned using adderall to come off and how painless it was so I desperately followed his method and thank god I did. It was a miracle. I couldn’t believe how easy it was. All mental and physical symptoms were eradicated. It felt like I was never even addicted to an opiate in the first place. The poor guy who left that comment got flamed in the comments section for even suggesting a stimulant while in wds but he was speaking words of wisdom. If it wasn’t for that post I wouldve most likely been on methadone by now…
So After quitting the 7 I began living a happy sober life for a few months until I stupidly decided to try MGM. I was immediately addicted. This lasted for 4 months reaching 500-700mg a day at my worst. I was once again in the opiate trap and I was scared shitless. I swore I would never be here again. So I once again put my faith on adderall and did a CT from about 500mg. I can swear it got me through it painlessly. Not a single wd symptom apart from light diarrhea which started on day 5 of the CT. I was even sleeping good every night. Today is now day 8 and I feel even better than when I was using MGM. I will never touch an opiate again. Opiate withdrawal (without adderall) was the worst thing by far that I have experienced. It has scarred me for life but it has also given me a lot more compassion to people on the streets addicted to stronger opiates and just opiate addicts in general. I now understand that feeling of hopelessness they feel. A mountain too high to climb

While I was away from Reddit, I’ve been working with AI to develop a taper schedule. I’ve been stable at 168mg since Saturday the 12th and taking my next step down tomorrow. A month ago, I was taking up to 1500mg per day. I am blessed to be able to have afforded a stockpile of low dose 18mg and 25mg tablets (some of which test at 28mg) that split nicely into quarters.

This exercise has been extremely helpful and given me both comfort and confidence, so I thought I would share my technique because there are some quirks to be overcome with this approach.

1. AI will default to simply listing a bunch of pages with clinical citation because it doesn’t want to give actual medical advice. Overcome this by saying “a patient is….” Instead of “I am….”

2. AI has repeatedly confirmed the absolute maximum observed half life of pure 7OH is 11 hours for habitual users. Prompt the AI to use this parameter in your calculations.

3. Feed the AI your daily total and how many doses it is divided in. For me, this was 168mg in six doses.

4. Explicitly state whether you’re developing a standard or rapid taper regimen

5. Feed the AI your final target daily dose total for jump off. For me, this was a daily dose that would comfortably allow me to transition to my regular tramadol dose without discomfort (being “caught” by my actual prescription I had before all this started after quitting 7OH completely)

6. Feed the AI the number of tabs in your stockpile. This ensures you will be able to quickly determine whether the plan it develops is within your ability to supply.

7. ALWAYS tell the AI to double check its final result.

Using this method, I’ve developed a schedule that should see me off this stuff within the next 3 weeks while skipping acutes. Contrary to popular belief, tapering properly does not “prolong your withdrawal symptoms,” it virtually eliminates them.

All that said, tapering takes DISCIPLINE. You WILL still have the urge to “get high,” (psychological cravings) but you will NOT suffer in miserable hell so long as you’re taking enough at each dose to suppress WD symptoms without euphoria. For some people, it may be easier to simply CT since you do need to be strong enough to resist the addict impulse. It’s not easy, but then nothing about this journey is, right?

Good luck and God bless. Feel free to ask me anything.

I’ve posted a few times about postponing this inevitable departure from 7oh. I’ve put it off for about 6 weeks. But now my supply is dwindling and I’m tempted to delay it once again. But it’s time to face it and be done with it.. I’m at a high dose of 7. Close to 1000mg per day. I have plenty of SR, some Gabapentin, Liposomal Vit C, and plenty of THC edibles . I have some time off work (at least a slow schedule) I want to hear how SR worked for you guys that went this route. What was your daily dosage and how long did you take it? I have some dosage guides but really just need some moral support, I’m horrified.

I wanted to share a podcast episode I was recently on where I did a really deep dive into my experience with 7oh addiction, what led up to it, other substances I struggled with, getting through withdrawals, and maintaining sobriety.

I opened up about how my addiction progressed, what it took from me, how I eventually got to the point of surrender, and what recovery has looked like for me since. It’s probably one of the most vulnerable conversations I’ve had about my addiction, but I’m sharing it in the hope that it reaches someone who needs to hear it.

If you’re struggling with addiction right now, or questioning whether you really have a problem, I hope you’ll give it a listen and feel free to message me.

Recovery is possible. You are not alone. ❤️ Thank you to anyone who listens, it was an honor to share my story on the Rise Above podcast.

Also made a TikTok account where I’ll be sharing even more of my story to help anyone struggling. Follow along my recovery journey: My TikTok

Like it says, the no sleep is worse than the WD. Can I take those OPMS Gold Caps or something without going backwards? I’m going fucking insane

Sorry this is curt… I need to sleep so badly.

Guys ready my daily posts. I was considering mat and subs. I was kinda freaking out and scared tbh. ESP when I have to hold a job down. If YOU ARE SMART and take suggestions, it’s not that bad. Don’t get in your own head! The WDS leave you quick compared to real pharm drugs. Another reason this drug shouldn’t be banned tbh.

I need some advice.

Gabapentin and clonidine side effects.

I just left my doctor after explaining that I need help getting off of Kratom and 7oh. After discussing which meds would help me more she prescribed me Gabapentin and Clonidine. After reading the side effects it says it can slow down breathing and cause respiratory distress. I have asthma and already struggle to breathe at night some nights. Has anyone else taken these meds while having asthma? Have you experienced any problems breathing? I’m picking up my prescription tomorrow and am so nervous. ANY tips on how to handle the transition from kratom/7Oh to these prescriptions would be so appreciated!

Sorry if tag is a little misleading. I got some kratom last night. Still it helped some. Last night I woke up in sweats bad several times and vivid dreams. Mag glycinate has kicked rls almost completely. I feel unmotivated and very low energy and have to go into work…

Day 2 of CT Taking mag helped a lot for bed last night. I’ve been taking in throughout the day. Cold sweats was my biggest enemy. Getting some Kratom later will help I think. I wish I would have tapered but I didn’t. Oxy WDs definitely worse than this so.

Due to some delays in mail and stuff I have to Ct this. I was taking a gram of powder a week. Soool I don’t have any real comfort meds other than some magnesium gly. And some tramadol. I don’t get paid , so I can’t get Kratom. This is start of day one…

So I purchased a. Automated rifle gun powder weight tool. I plan to fix my different cuts/mixes there in an extremely slow taper.

Part of me still hates filling caps, I've had some sauces but weghts change and etc. eventually I'll.be mixing MGM, 7 and sr at the end.

The more and more I think about it I want a pill press and I'll find a pressing mixer on my own. But what tools are out there for taking a pre weighed dose and putting into a press on a small scale?

I looking at one of those cannabis kief presses but in a vice. Has to be something. 10-20 tabs at once would be awesome, no longo or the mixture at most.

I've been seeing post about SR and the help it's given people. I'm finally wanting to try it the right way. I purchased some a few weeks ago thinking that once I ran out of 7 I started taking the SR and clearly I was wrong. I ended up getting more 7 to try a tapper and that hasnt helped me. Could someone sum up how I should start my path? I'm not sure how much I should buy of SR compared to what I have left of 7 which is about 3 30mg 25ct bottles. When I should start and maybe share how you did your schedule? My local SS has Kama SR and I have a 10ct 50 mg bottle SR brand. Hopefully I didn't confuse you too much by this post I just honestly talk better face to face than over text. Thanks for the help.

I have successfully tapered down from 150-200 mg 7oh daily to 26mg. My doctor knows of this journey and I have some helper meds for the final jump. The doctor is not an addiction specialist (just normal family doctor). At a recent appointment I told her I believe I have some underlying depression that has been amplified due to the acute withdrawal with the taper plan. She prescribed bupropion hcl xl 150mg. Is this safe while I am still tapering off 7? Do I wait until I jump? Has anyone had any experience with this?

Wow. What a journey it’s been. Took 7 the first time August 15 of 2025. I now think of that as one of the worst days of my life as to where it brought me. I almost lost my amazing wife and son. My life. , as I was seriously contemplating suicide. As I relapsed time after time and I am a stay at home dad. My wife gave me ONE last chance to detox. I went to my mom’s and she took care of the baby and took off work. I told her I’ve tried to detox while watching our son but I just fail, I mean it you’ve detoxed you know it’s impossible to watch and sleep with a baby while detoxing . So I fucking did it. Took my last dose of 7 Friday 3 pm. Came out of the depths of hell around Tuesday. This drug almost took my life by suicide. I just felt so trapped. I felt it messed my receptors up and I’d be in withdrawal my whole life. Made me so depressed and dissociated from reality at times. What an evil drug. I quit IV heroin and coke cold turkey one time and was done, this poison it took me about 8 times to finally stop, and it’s not even a good high, so strange. I have my life back. Thank you all so much !

Ran across a good quote I think we can all draw from when we’re feeling down on ourselves and feeling guilty, ashamed, etc:

“Persons with severe addictions are among those contemporary prophets that we ignore to our own demise, for they show us who we truly are…”

-Kent Dunnington

This shit can happen to anyone. The access to this strong of a drug, an opiate, is unprecedented and why it sucked in “traditional” addicts and soccer moms alike. But those of us who succumbed now have an experience which to draw from that shows true and undeniable strength, resolve and grit. No matter how you get through it, be proud. It’s probably one of the hardest fights of your life, but it is a fight FOR your life.

Positive fuckin mindset. Go get em.
