Officially 2 weeks off 7
Hey guys, just wanted to make a post cause I know other ppl want to hear experiences with the withdrawals. I had been using 7 daily for a little over 8 months. Up to 300-500mg a day. I started a SR taper the last week in July. I work a construction job and have not taken a single day off work. The SR seems to have done me a favor but I’m not getting my hopes up too soon. Not quite out of it yet I’m afraid. But I feel much better than the first week without 7. First few days after jumping off everything was the worst, but still much more manageable than CT. Just felt really anxious and tired. Had some issues sleeping and then stomach issues.
Today I still am dealing with low motivation and stomach issues mainly. The stomach being the worst of it. Was on loperamide the last week and finally off that now for a few days and I can’t trust a fart still but the pain is mostly gone. Been smoking weed every day since about day 5 off everything. It’s helped me a lot. Just to ignore all the little side effects after and during work. Also makes it easy to say “oh this anxiety is just from the weed, it will pass”.
Taking it a month at a time for now. I don’t know if I’ll relapse, probably. But I’m never! Going back to dependency. I’ve made plans in my head to relapse just for a day after a month or two just to keep myself pushing. Hoping I won’t need to. Good luck to you all! This has been one of the hardest tests in my life! I still miss 7 dearly most days but I haven’t had issues with cravings yet. I still have a huge pile of it in my place. Haven’t even thought about using it yet. Just smoke when I feel I need something. Thanks guys.
