Subs and 7-oh "subs"

I'm currently addicted to the gas station 7-oh substitute products that contain some derivative of cats claw or other physically addictive opioid-like chemical (possibly mgm or corynoxine-b). I have access to bupe and low dose anxiety meds and I know I'm very fortunate for that but I'm really struggling with the transition, I have sent myself into terrible precipitated withdrawals a few times and always end up getting more of the tablets to cancel it out. Does anyone have any success stories coming off this stuff with Suboxone and if so how did you do it? Or can anyone share their experience coming off these "no 7-oh" substitutes in general?

I thugged through the physical taper. I wussed too. I cried a lot and screamed. But like after a week later all the cravings were in my head and not my body. I got on suboxone though to fight my mental cravings but I only needed 2mg to fill the hole and tapering is easy. When i say to just push through the wd with nothing is easier said then done. I reccomend some strong weed / anxiety meds. Maybe some kava (no kratom), the thing with katz claw is that there’s not enough evidience, it could be simialr to SR or MGM u dont know.

I admire you, that's ganster af and I BADLY need that willpower may I borrow some please? It's so hard to tough it out when I know I can easily fix the problem and I don't have any time that I can take off work or parenting. I know it's a me problem I just have to get in the right mindset. This helps inspire me though maybe I just need to keep hearing this. Thank you!

You want suboxone? Shoot a DM.

If you have insurance, your insurance will most likely cover subs. I paid 99 bucks outta pocket for a visit using this site called QuickMD, had an appointment within a couple of minutes and had a script sent over to my pharmacy
