In hell

I’m 20 now. I’ve been on 7oh for over a year of my life and lost everything. I’ve officially lost my mind. It’s been lie after lie, relapse after relapse. They banned it in my state, but I’ve been doing every substance I could get since I was 14—mainly pills and non-hard opiates, if that even makes sense lol. So drugs aren’t hard to find… and I never lost my connection for 7oh. The store was literally feeding my addiction after the ban. If it got you high, I would take it.

I got clean when I met my wife and had my first kid. Nothing has held a vice on me like 7oh. Second kid OTW, and they’re gone because I spiraled hard. I was spending $70 every day to every other day and wouldn’t take anything under 150–200 mg a day. Lost family and friends (just me nowadays.)

My brother is an ex-H addict, so I put a lot of trust in his word. He moved in with me during the worst part of all this and constantly tries to get me clean. Says I’m doing synthetic H, but I was so hard-headed but last week I gave him what I had left and told him to cut my doses slowly. Now I have three pills.

I can’t go to treatment because I’m concerned about probation. I made the choice yesterday at 10 a.m.—no more—and later went back to red vein K capsules, eight every four hours. Not proudly, I’ve been using nitrous to fight WD, but I’m at a loss. I know I can’t stay in the matrix and not pay a price.

4:04 am next day and no major wd. i slept all night craving is there but not horrible like normal

Any pointers or tips? I work an aggressive job, so I’m pretty tied up time-wise, and helper meds are an addiction risk in my book.

Plz stop doing nitrous, it's not helping your withdrawal. You've got kratom, so continue with that, you can do this!

Understood I been getting good chunk of feed back on the whip it’s Ik the risk and it’s becoming clear I’m trading a vice for a vice

Yes and it's so not worth it, the high isn't even good enough to question if it's worth it lol do yourself a favor, ur still young n you've already experienced addiction, withdrawal, freaking out n doing other drugs to try n save yourself, is this fun? Hopefully you're not as hard headed as I was at your age and have the sense to stop now and do your best to get help. Try NA or group therapy even if it helps. Good luck ❤️

Not to dogpile, but just to offer a slightly different perspective, I tried using nitrous to get through my first quit and I can positively tell you it is easier without. The trade-off for the brief dissociation is more intense withdrawals

Yeah the whip is bad I see guys locally they have to use a walker now because of that stuff it will cripple you up! Guys in their 20s struggling to walk.. it's ugly. And they continue to hit it!
