ok so right now I am smoking about half a gram a day with the exception of the past two days (today being day 2). I was only able to get .15 yesterday and today I picked up 3 grams but have only done (at max) .2 so far, each time picking up I was dope sick and going thru withdrawals (24+ hrs between the uses).

TL;DR: I have a habit of .5 g smoking Black Tar a day and I have .8 grams left and I Want to do a taper with it (I have access to 2 more grams but I want to taper with only this .8 and get rid of the rest)

ADVICE PLEASE!!!
 
I've never smoked heroin cause I don't waste good drugs BUT I just lol'd no joke at your post. I've tried iv tapering heroin several times using the water bottle trick-- look it up-- and you just end up shooting more. It would take Hercules style self control to taper heroin... Or everyone I know has always joked about the idea. Maybe smoking is different? Idk. Hopefully someon else will respond this should at least bump it up-- good luck! I always got my tolerance down by withdrawing and everyone I know that tapered ate pills that weren't too crazy or were doing subs.
 
^^^ that's exactly what I said. He's already lowered his dose, so just enjoy the H, and then taper with loperamide.
 
^ +1. i agree.. call it your last hoorah with dope as a goodbye to it and then taper with lope as Lorne??? mentioned, or try to CT and get some comfort meds.. or a combo of the two lol.

Good luck!

Also, if you do kick it (which would be excellent on your part to begin with props for that if you follow through!)
Don't forget that a proper/healthy diet and especially exercise can help more than most think in WD's.

Ya I am planning on doing the lope here in the next couple days. Now with the exercise thing, when I'm detoxing I like to ride my bike, in the heat, it keeps me from feeling the majority of symptoms and it's exercise so it wears me out enough to almost sleep and sometimes I do. My problem tho is that I tend to not eat when I'm detoxing and if I go for an hour bike ride on an empty stomach and not eat after while I'm going through withdrawals is that more harmful then if I did any exercise at all??
 
The whole reason I believe I can taper this time is I really don't have the opportunity to use, after my recent relapse my family and my exgf are like on my ass 24/7! If I close a door they find a reason to pop in every couple minutes, I can't go anywhere without a chaperon, it's very... humbling lol. So my availability to use is limited...
 
Smoking heorin would be even harder to taper than IVing or snorting the stuff due to the short half life and compulsive need the user feels to take just one more hoot then that turns into just one more then okay this is the last one for sure lol this is going to be extremely hard to do if this is how you want to go about quitting but if you do manage I would like a statue of you to be erected in times square cause you will have more self control than 99.9℅ of the population haha its doable but not gonna be easy or practical.

Lol, no doubt. Tapering is pretty much a failure attempt, but there is still a chance it could work :)
