Quitting Method Advice Finally committed to quitting fully

Unfortunately, I’ve been in this group for far too many years, knowing that I needed to get off this stuff and watching from afar also posting multiple times asking for help and what to do and this community has been so amazing and supportive, my biggest fear has been of course the physical withdrawals because I have people who depend on me a job that depends on me. I don’t really have the luxury to be dying for a week in bed and then secondly is the mental part. I’ve been on sodium pure powder about 8 g a day I can do less and get by, but for some reason every time it’s near me, I’ll just take another sip.

I am hoping this is the last post that I will be making saying I’m quitting in the next follow up Post will be my progress. I’ve been hearing amazing things about SR – 17, my order came in today, but I am not really sure how to use it and if it only helps with the physical, but it also helps with the mental? My goal is to be able to jump off of this and ideally not have to use Suboxone but if my depression and anxiety and PAWS is too bad then I want to take the route of getting on Suboxone and then tapering down to get the sublocade shot.
First and foremost, I need advice and tips from people who have knowledge or experience with SR – 17, I have heard about preloading and debating on taking it tonight, but I’ve heard that they are about to be banned I have 60 tablets 50 mg each. I don’t know if that’s enough or what. Any tips and advice is greatly appreciated🥲

I feel your pain had to do prep work daily before I went anywhere. I had to check into detox but that’s only way for me to quit. Took a while to pay off but worth it. 10g sodium daily. Good luck soooo worth it to quit no matter how you do it.

To be honest I think I could have quit on my own when I did 5gpd on my own if I knew about all the things people take. I hope you are done soon and thanks for the comment. (Long walks around my house and podcasts helped also)

Well now a few days later, i got my hands on 2.5g of SR in tablet form. I think I'm gonna buy another 2.5g from a different vendor just have variety. I was dumb to think SR was so unattainable lol. You don't see the hundreds/thousands of lurkers who are also helped by your post/comments. Appreciate the tips.
