7-OH was the worst experience of my life. Thought I was gonna die

I’ve been trying to stop snorting bupropion because it makes my chest tight, and makes me paranoid as fuck. I figured, “let’s try some 7-OH and maybe that will get me off this shit and won’t be as bad.” Holy fuck was I wrong. I got 6 14mg tabs. The package says to do half at a time. The guy in the store said to start with a quarter. I did that. I did a quarter. I was like, “oh this is nice,” kind of euphoric, kind of stimulating. The quarter tab effects GOOD feelings wore off after like a few minutes after it hit me. It comes up slow on you compared to snorting stuff. I was like, “okay, I’ll take the other quarter,” that also felt good for a few minutes after it hit me (ramps up over 20 minutes, max effects in 1-2 hours. It was 1 hour for me.) Once the stimulant effect wore off, it crashed me down into a feeling of being so tired I could barely keep my eyes open. I eventually fell asleep after my body started shivering and I became super cold. That sucked.

I woke up a few hours later and was like, “oh, it must be out of the system. Let’s take more.” BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD FUCKING IDEA. I took another quarter and it made me feel good, but I was starting to get weak physically and nauseous, and the dryness in my mouth was worse than cotton mouth on weed. I waited 20 more minutes and was like, “fuck it, let’s do more, it will feel better.” No, that’s not what happened. I started to not be able to breathe. I had to consciously think of breathing. I went into a panic attack state, thinking I was going to die. I couldn’t walk. I collapsed onto the couch and proceeded to call my wife to tell her I fucked up and took too much of this shit in case I became unresponsive. She stayed on the phone with me through two hours of complete terror and hallucinations.

This was the worst fucking shit ever. I passed out for another few hours and woke up feeling the worst hangover of my life. Like having the flu full blown but without a fever.

Why anyone would ever do this shit is beyond me. One 14mg tablet over 6 hours practically killed me.
 
ChatGPT's summary:

-----------------------------------------------------------
A person who was already abusing snorted bupropion tried taking “7-OH” hoping it would help him/her quit. He/She ignored the cautious dosing advice and repeatedly redosed a 14 mg tablet in quarters over several hours.

At first, the drug felt mildly euphoric and stimulating to him/her, but the pleasant effects were brief. Soon after, he/she experienced heavy sedation, exhaustion, chills, shivering, severe dry mouth, weakness, and nausea. After taking more, the experience escalated into intense panic and respiratory distress — he/she felt unable to breathe automatically, collapsed on the couch, and feared he/she was dying. He/She also reported hallucinations and severe terror lasting for hours while on the phone with his/her wife.

After eventually passing out, he/she woke up feeling extremely ill, describing it as worse than a hangover and similar to having the flu. The overall tone of the post is that the experience was traumatic, frightening, and completely unlike what he/she expected.

Glad you're feeling alright and didn't get K.O.'d by the 'O. Perhaps we could help you transition to a different drug instead of snorting Bupropion. Could you please tell us what you like most in a drug? If it's just stims you're after, have you considered maybe trying ephedrine (natty if you buy the plant Ephedra Sinica (Ma Huang) from chinese herb sites.

You don't want to cause your wife any grief due to your habits man - don't keep her worried because she doesn't deserve that yo. Maybe talk with her over possible safer things to do.

In the end it's up to you tho.

😅 so ur saying this guy is full of shiznit or it's an egagement post. I've never had any sort of reaction like this, maybe but I haven't and been using for a while.

Definitely not an engagement post. That was the worst experience of my life and I’m glad I’m alive. First and last time I’ll ever touch that shit.

Yeah. Stimulants are the best for me. Bupropion doesn’t work anymore. No stimulant effect anymore that hits me right away or lasts. Been taking it for 9 months. Snorting it for three. Doesn’t hit me anymore.

Was going to try to get a script for Ritalin, but people are saying I’m just going to get addicted worse to that.

I’ll look up Ephedra Sinica (Ma Huang)
 
No judgement, but I'd kick snorting welbutrin/buproprion sooner than later.

The shit is caustic, that's why it burns like hell. That burn, is actually the powder cutting the fuck up out of your nasal tissues. Snorting this stuff long term could cause some structural damage in your nose/face. If you're gonna snort things, a rule of thumb is that if it burns like hell, you're doing some damage & best not to do it too often. If it doesn't burn, you're probably in a little bit better of a boat,.

But having snorted buproprion in the past myself, it absolutely burns like a mother fucker.

I was going through something similar just a few years ago. I have a lot of ADHD-like problems, but doctors refuse to look into or test me for it, because then it would mean they'd have to admit that I need stimulants. So I took it into my own hands & started using welbutrin + bronkaid (ephedrine). It worked, but ephedrine can be harder on your cardiovascular system than amphetamine even. I actually ended up with a heart arrhythmia a few years after this routine, although I have no idea what technically caused it, it's still something to be cautious about.
