r/stopping7oh

Has anyone straight tapered all the way down and off?

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.

Day of reckoning

So I don’t think I can do this anymore. Living a double life, spending too much money on this crap, taking out cash advances and ignoring bills, hiding it all from my wife, not being mentally or emotionally present at home, just constantly running and miserable. Constantly worried about losing the house or not being able to pay for my car or getting sued by creditors, dreading what notices might be in the mail that day if my wife is home. I’m at rock bottom, I’m throwing in the towel and coming clean today. I don’t know if my wife will stay. I’ve had alcohol problems before, I was addicted to 7oh until last year same time when I quit for about 8 months. Had a couple relapses, this last one has gone on 2 months and it has its claws in me again. I’ve been drinking somewhat heavily since I quit 7oh the first time around. I want to be sober. I need treatment or ongoing accountability, I need to change these patterns that keep bringing me here where I feel shame and then hide it in a substance. Any advice anyone has is welcome, I’m just sick of it.

Round 2 wish me luck!

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.
