Relapsed After Rehab… Finally Trying SR to Taper Off 7-OH. Looking for Honest Advice.
Not too long ago, back in March/April, I spent 30 days in rehab because of my 7-OH use. While I was there, I was able to get clean and stayed that way for my entire stay.
Unfortunately, almost immediately after I got home, I had a full relapse. Since then, I’ve pretty much ended up right back where I started. I’ve felt a lot of guilt, shame, frustration, and disappointment over it, but that’s a whole different conversation.
I’ve been trying to quit, but if I’m being honest, even saying I’ve been “trying” feels like I’m giving myself way too much credit. It’s been incredibly hard to even get myself to truly commit. I know I need more willpower and faith, but every attempt to taper just falls apart, and I end up back in the same cycle. It feels like I’m completely stuck.
With the upcoming DEA scheduling, and knowing 7-OH likely won’t be available after early August, I finally decided to order SR to try using it as a tapering tool. I’ve tried multiple approaches before, including Suboxone and MIT/Kratom Powder, and I still haven’t been able to beat this on my own with those options.
The vendor I ordered from is currently out of stock, so they said it won’t ship until around the 10th. I paid for two-day shipping, so if everything goes as planned, I’m hoping to have it around the 12th or 13th. I considered ordering from another vendor, but none of them seemed as trustworthy, so I’m hoping I made the right decision. I’m intentionally not naming any vendors.
Honestly, I’m scared. Rehab was “easy” compared to this because I was in a controlled environment. I couldn’t just leave and buy more whenever cravings or stress hit. Being back home is a completely different battle, and I’m realizing how much my environment affects my recovery.
So I guess I’m looking for advice from people who have actually used SR as part of getting off 7-OH.
For those who have:
How did your experience go?
Did it actually help you taper?
How did you start once it arrived?
Is there anything you wish you knew before using it?
Right now I’m taking around 400 mg of 7-OH per day, and it just keeps getting more out of control. At this point, I’m open to hearing any experiences, opinions, or advice. I know everyone is different, but I’d really appreciate any insight from people who’ve been through something similar.
Thank you for all the support here in this community!
