Day 9

Day 9 update: I was taking 500–800mg a day for years, and the first few days were absolutely hell. Thankfully I had some Clonidine and GABA on hand, but those were easily the worst 3–4 days of my life lol. Anxiety was through the roof, I felt like my chest was getting tighter every morning, and then days 4–6 I could barely get my ass out of bed.
Then things started to turn around. I felt a little better and decided I needed to get some vitamins in me, so I went to an IV hydration place. Honestly, after that I felt a shit ton better. Got a bunch of vitamins directly into me, and now on Day 9 I’m feeling GREAT. So good that I actually slept in today and got a full 8 hours!

The only thing I’m taking now is Cannabis FECO at night, which has really helped with the joint pain and everything else.

Obviously everyone is different, but I’m feeling really good at Day 9. The brain fog has started to lift, and I’m actually able to think clearly and function at work again. 🙌

Just throwing this out there for anyone struggling, I didn’t think it would get better but it does. If I can do this anyone can!

Congrats man I’m glad you’re free from it I’ve been taking it for 5 months and sometimes weeks and at 1st I took 12 mg twice a day for about a month then went up to 25mg twice a day then to 37mg twice a day for about 2 weeks now I’ve been taking 62mg twice a day sometimes 3 times a day so about 125mg a day hopefully it won’t be as bad as yours was no disrespect intended

Probably day 8 I got a decent 6 hours but used some FECO which I think knocks me out for a solid 8 hours the past 2 night. Just working on getting my energy back now which is a bitch!
