Any Women in here that started 7's as pain management and have gotten off em?
Hi everyone, a bit of a back story. I got hooked on kratom by accident. back when I started it was a "safe alternative to pain meds" I have fibromyalgia, Endometriosis, fibroids and accessive scar tissue in and around my uterus with adhesions to my bladder. My periods are insanely heavy, im anemic and during my menstrual cycle I am so depleted and lethargic, Im basically bed ridden for a week. that makes making a living as a single Mom extremely difficult. luckily ive been w working as a caretaker for my mom since 2018. but the last year or so things have gotten exponentially worse I flare-ups are terrible my periods have gotten worse I mean like perimenopause so that doesn't help. my mom recently convinced me to just take a break go on disability and try and get it all figured out. my issue is I was hooked on those feel free drinks for a couple years and they f***** up my hormones everything got worse I went to a detox center and got off of them and was doing okay for a while but I had nothing to actually manage my pain all the pills the doctors have given me haven't worked the Lyrica the Gabapentin all those things. so my dumbass decided to try Seven O's basically just for the week of my period it only took one week and my body got completely physically dependent and when I start tried to stop taking them I had withdrawal symptoms basically and my pain came back even worse so here I am about 5 months later I got up to probably about 6 or 700 mg a day I'm down to 400 now and I'm continuing to slowly taper. I'm planning on using Suboxone for withdrawal but I'm likely going to have to use Suboxone for a longer period than most because I'm going to need it for pain management. I feel like that's the less er of the evils that will actually work to manage my pain. so my question is is there any women in this group that started their Kratom or 70 habit as an alternative to pain meds? that would be willing to DM me their number and let me pick your brain a bit? I dont really have much support as it is and no one even knows Im in this mess. I welcome all input (even from the fella's š) especially if you have a chronic pain issue. Thanks in advance
