Hey everyone,
Unfortunately, I relapsed recently after having some solid clean time.
The relapse involved both benzos and opioids. The benzo situation is much more manageable at this point. I’ve tapered myself down and am currently stable at 5-10mg diazepam per day.
The opioid side has been a lot more chaotic.
Over roughly a month, I went from oxycodone (around 240–320mg/day) to some very pure heroin, where I got up to around 200mg/day. I eventually managed to get off that with a Suboxone taper.
For the past two weeks, though, I’ve been using 7-OH. One of my problems is that I’m a bit of a doomsday prepper when it comes to substances—I always buy enough to make sure I won’t run out, which obviously doesn’t help when I’m trying to stop.
My tolerance has escalated incredibly fast, and I’m now taking somewhere around 500–600mg/day. I’m trying to taper, but honestly I’m getting tired of the cycle and am considering just getting back on Suboxone for some stability and to stop the constant obsessing about dosing.
My main questions are:
I’ve been through more opioid withdrawals than I’d like to admit, and I think that’s part of why my tolerance seems to skyrocket so quickly every time I relapse.
At this point I’m less concerned about getting high and more interested in getting stable and moving forward. Any experiences, advice, or comparisons would be appreciated.
Thanks.

My main questions are:
- How bad are withdrawals from high-dose 7-OH compared to other opioids?
- Has anyone here withdrawn from 7-OH after using amounts in this range?
- How would you compare it to oxycodone withdrawal?
- Heroin withdrawal?
- Fentanyl withdrawal?
- Suboxone withdrawal?
