That is a confusing question to answer, it is street drugs. ^That is your answer though, wait until you are sick, and then some. There could be many reasons for why your wd's are not kicking in for so long. In my opinion if you are not that experienced as you say, then you probably are not in too deep yet to be getting sick far too fast and might have lucked out this time. As the habit progresses, onset time increases, peak time decreases, dose exponentiates, and time to withdrawal onset drastically hastens. There are so many factors, particularly personal history with opiates and individual reactions, etc. I assume you are talking about H if it was a pill from a pharmacy there still wouldn't be an answer. Ride the withdrawal out, don't take a sub if you are in mild withdrawal. You have to be in severe withdrawal as you know.
As for myself, I am a day shy of 11 weeks without opiates. I am in no rush to taper off benzos but that is how I would do it. There is too much in my life going on right now that is not just denial talking. I am starting a new job soon I have to prepare myself for which will take at least a couple days. I am potentially starting a second job and actually it could be great too. Then with the yoga classes of my preference I am trying to construct a schedule. One job pays a hell of a lot per hour and they seem to be giving me plenty of hours even the first week for part time. I have no time whatsoever in life to think about opiates. I can see that completely changing once I have money to spend, though. That will change everything and make it harder to keep clean. For now I'm just trying to keep myself out of seizure territory. I'm on a stable dose of etizolam, will switch to a long acting benzo later this year I do still take 10mg diazepam a day though to ease out the interdose / make sure I don't die. The derealization or whatever of benzo withdrawal was not a good feeling. Felt like I was in a dream and disconnected from everything and for the last couple hours not much more than a zombie waiting for a chemical. I'm not quitting those though, I mean, I wouldn't even be able to tell anymore if I was doing any better or not off opiates. It's best for me at this unstable time of my life not to fuck with the benzos any more than I alreay have, find that stable dose and then make damn sure it doesn't increase.
Since using all that xanax I've noticed memory problems. Like serious ones. It is probably paws from opiates too, though, or altogether. They seem to be going away but like I couldn't remember what I did the day before unless I thought really hard about it. Not good. Fuck xanax, etizolam is a way better med for panic disorder. Wonder why they don't script it. I like valium. I like ativan a lot. I really like bromazepam too. I don't like klonopin so much, or xanax, or etizolam so much as the others. Any of the three would be much better for tapering than etizolam. really it is only holding me over for the time being while I get my life on track.
Cooked a pasta with fresh and organic garlic, ginger, turmeric, kale, dill, parsley, mushrooms, the yummy Italian parmesan that I can afford since I didn't get any meat, got a massive half-key block of the stuff. That cheese has almost double the amount of L-tryptopah as cheddar, the precursor to serotonin, that is. Anyways it is the cheese with the highest l-tryptophan amount per serving. That stuff makes me sleepy in supplement form it's nice but I'd rather whole foods. The Mdma I took over a month ago without a doubt fried a part of my brain away so I should definitely be consuming foods rich in tryptophan these days. I am crazy about that hard parmesan haha. I am most def a cheese fiend, I was going to get blue cheese but then I'd just miss red meat and have less parmesan.
Also, a red hot habanero pepper, and black pepper for the curcumin absorption from the fresh orangey turmeric pieces. I was going to get meat but organic meat is ridiculously expensive, I do like to have it sometimes but I'd rather that block of parmesan for my pastas. It is so good and all that stuff with a little rotini is really healthy. I get citrus fruits, and pineapple since pineapple has anti-inflammatory effects and helps with workout recovery I mostly eat that for fruit. Grapefruit too, to throw a wildcard in with those prescription drugs and research chems interactions. Nah... I just love grapefruit. Turmeric is powerful I'd really give it an honest try for pain, I think there is a hot beverage that's easy tp prepare from it. Then all those leafy greens, got basil too. I'll have a garden again soon. That parmesan made that pasta. I wouldn't have been able to eat all those fresh herbs spices and veggies without it. Maybe if I can get two jobs going I could afford to toss some pine nuts in there too and get an even bigger chunk of Italian direct parmesan. Maybe a few kilos of the stuff. That habanero was crazy had me in sweats.
Always in a cheerful mood when there are healthy foods around. Didn't even really cost that much. I'd def grab a little more organic beef liver in a few weeks though. It's potent in nutrients to the point you can only have a small portion. Loved the stuff, but then again it takes away from that parmesan.
