State banned FF/Big wake up call
Tennessee banned FF July 1st and I was not at all ready - i thought.
This is my second go around with FF, this most recent addiction been going on about 8 months and the last couple months I was averaging 7-9 a day. I knew it was a problem again and wanted to quit so bad but I was so scared of going through the fuckin terrible withdrawals again.
I had a huge wake up call last weekend because I had about 10 FFs in me for the day and was drinking alcohol pretty heavily and I ended up going into Serotonin syndrome, lost my vision, body locked up, trembling in the floor puking all over myself. Felt like my organs were shutting down. Luckily I finally got to the point i could hold water down and got enough down to get up and get in the bath. But was deathly sick and dehydrated for the next 2 days. That was me just being so stupid.
Anyway, I knew I had about 5 days before the ban so I bought a case of FF and 2 smaller bags of normal kratom powder (ive never done normal powder). So i tapered down to 4 FFs and then 2 FFs in 4 days and now ive completely swapped to just the powder when I wake up and before bed and I had absolutely 0 withdrawals. All the anxiety I had was just from anticipating the withdrawals, but only symptoms I had was upset stomach but no anxiety, no RLS, no loss of sleep, and im only on a very small amount of powder. But before my morning dose of powder Im not withdrawaling at all. But when I was only on FF id wake up at 5am everyday withdrawing. I couldnt sleep in if I wanted to bc i needed a FF to even fall back asleep.
Has anyone else tried this and had the same outcome? I plan to be off powder by Monday, should I expect withdrawals then?
Last year I stopped CT and wanted to be put out of my misery, so I know how bad it gets. But I write this in hopes that it could work for you all as well. Lmk your thoughts
(Also, i have been megadosing Vit C and Magnesium)
