A good strain for Opiate Withdrawal

[2Stoned2Care]

10 years since alcohol touched my lips, and I am grateful to say that I no longer give a damn about booze. My ex-wife/now girlfriend gets hammered and it bothers me to see her kill her self with that shit. 8 years is badass and I say cheers to us and every one that has overcome the shit and thank you @hecno .

Yes bro its the worst drug there is i think,i went cold turkey and nearly died,i kept passing out and having fits but i did not want help i got myself into that position and i was getting myself out one way or another.took me nearly 5 years to start feeling normalish because alcohol really fucks up your body.but here i am 8 years later with 3 gorgeous new daughters a fantastic wife,growing my own meds.you will get there bro,if you need a chat anytime dont hesitate to give me a pm bro

The last time doctors had me on long term 10mg Vicodin along with Morphine and a couple other rx drugs, my mind reached a state of "Got To Get That Shit Out Of Me". My brain was not happy with pharamacopia and so I decided I would dump all those nasty rx meds in favor of marijuana. Turned out to be an outstanding decision.

My biology is a little strange and always has been, so don't think this is how it will work for you. It was 3 weeks of rolling back the rx meds and I then was off all of them without any problems. That surprised the hell out of me. Again, don't think this is written in the proverbial stone.

I've put my body through many marijuana tests, so I could find the "sweet spot" for amount needed and time between vaping. I basically keep a schedule much like I would for any rx med or over the counter med. I been vaping every single day and have been for a number of years and am careful that I don't let the marijuana stack in my system by taking too much in a shorter period of time. I get far too sluggish and don't care for that feeling. Other than some minor memory problems, I've not had any issues vaping for this long period of time.

I have grown Aurora by Nirvana it is indeed a good strain for pain, I have 4 beans left actually I will probably pop one the next few runs.

It's about 2 weeks of physical hell then a month and a half of mental torture.

Yea I didn't feel happiness and normal emotions for like 2 and half to 3 months but when u feel that feeling of being happy again nothing beats that one of the best feeling I have ever experienced

Trust me on this one and if you are going to be coming off opiates of any kind do yourself the biggest favor in the world and get some kratom extract! I am just about as big of an advocate for Kratom as I am of cannabis, maybe even more so because it directly saved my life. It is an all natural way to deal with the withdrawls from opiates, they have been using it in the eastern part of the world for thousands of years to get people off of opium, in fact it is largely credited with ridding the east of the first great scourge which was opium.

If not for Kratom I would be dead, period. It is miracle stuff I swear! Do a little research on in, I have done lots and it is some magical shit when it comes to getting off opes

Theres a Strain called Opium by Paradise Seeds and it got the Name because it hits you like some.

I typically grow and smoke heavy indo, but sometimes a heavy one causes fatigue for me sooo maybe a 50/50 would work for it. I am not going through it now but it is a possibility. I have been prescribed OxyCodone 20mg or Roxycodone 4x a day and 1mg of Xanax 3x a day for 7 years now by the same doctor... and now shit is getting shifty so I am just preparing myself just in case the hell should happen to arise. I have chronic kidney problems that cause massive pain and a pelvic pain disorder... I just started growing and smoking again last year because my pain meds stopped working but when I combine it actually helps and I can live my life. Hopefully the Cannabis can do it on its own I would like to not be physically addicted to a little grey and blue pill, one of my favorite movies is Trainspotting lol

Yeah get ready there taking everything they took my oral pain meds and Xanax 2 years ago not because of anything I did that's just what's happening prescription drugs are out of hand I was prescribed it 18 years ago after drunk driver hit me breaking my neck and back since they did this I hardly ever get around without my chair I only go out 2 times a month because I have to I have severe panic attacks my doctor did all his patients like this he even had to let go one of his partners for constantly over writing scripes it was like they fired him for writing scripes period my pain is also severe growing marijuana and hoping it works is my last hope. I'm willing to try cbd strains just to see if they help I'm keeping a open mind I thought the with drawls would be bad but my doctor stepped us down over 120 days I wish I would have thought of trying this 18 years ago rather then doing everything doctors said.

I was on the exact meds(oxy) you are talking about when I walked away from modern medicine around 2-3 years ago. Its not easy to get off of them, but your body will thank you for the change to using pot as pain control instead of Oxy. The hardest thing for me was the getting off Antidepressant medications, even more so than the opiate based beds. Be very carful easing yourself off of those.
A tactic I used to get myself off of prescribed medications is have yourself a good variety of herb to smoke(sounds like you have that covered!). You will certainly want uphigh strains, and powerful indicas. Stay very stoned on weed while tapering off of the scrips. Slowly decline dosage, until you are taking them only when reallllly hurting. Have the uphigh strains close at hand to battle negative mental shit that will likely arise.
Tincture, tincture, tincture...I cannot say enough about everclear tincture. Very effective meds, and very efficient for the amount of weed you use to make it. A fairly heavy dose before bed and you'll sleep like a champ.
Good luck to you

P.S. Hey pal we are all waiting for potpros to come back! Hopefully soon!

When they took the few drugs from me I threw them all away let's just say 10 days I learned how to build a hummer out of a card board box that would carry 6 dead bodies and Jesse James and his gang was out side my house waiting to kill me and all my family that's all I remember and believe me I was told some stuff I did and said was deathly ill 18 years of that junk they can keep it. I quit cold turkey .

Congrats to all of those out there that have given up scrip medications in favour of weed. Its almost unbelievable that doctors are allowed to push these poisons.

Southerngurl - Full on cold turkey is crazy! I knew the end was coming for my scrip meds, so I though it would be wise to pull back one pill at a time. I was on Oxy for around a decade when I finally got them out of my life. I too have an intense upper spine injury and deal with intense 24/7 chronic pain. Good luck to you. Tincture, tincture, tincture. Don't know what I would do with out it!

I really appreciate all the tips guys, the tinctures if I go that route I will have to have Sniper help me besides hash I have not really made anything. I know you guys are working on Potpros.net lol. 7 almost 8 years even though the Oxy and Xanax are never abused after being on benzodiazapines and opiates that long there is no way around physical dependence. In my earlier years I had a couple Stints in rehab for booze and blow I almost lost my life,from age 15 to 21 I rode the line of death around 24 is when I got clean THEN a few months of clean my kidneys started to mess up, among other health problems and they started throwing the o.c in my face along with every other opiate known to man and finally it settled on Roxy'so. The Xanax is for Panic disorder with agoraphobia which I was diagnosed with when I was 13 and they actually introduced me to benzodiazapines when I was 13 but it was not a daily thing just as needed. When I got sick (24) my panic got out of control so I was put on them as a long term daily,medication. I also stopped smoking Ganja around 19 or 20 because I had a what I thought was a near death Panic Attack while smoking I did not realize it was probably the fact I had been on a blow and booze binge for 2 weeks I would not get the courage to smoke again until age 31, July 12 2015 to be exact and it was like I met my lover for the first time all over again. My biggest fear is Xanax withdrawal you can no shit die from Benzodiazapine withdrawal, Seizures,shaking,tremors so many scary things. I know opiate withdrawal is hell but it does not compare to benzodiazapine detox. I was hardcore into alcoholism I had my last drink at 22 after leaving rehab for the 4th time and like benzo detox you can and will die from alcohol withdrawal. I just pray that everything works out I didn't mean to get into part of my life story I appreciate you guys for listening and lending your hand. I will most definitely pay it forward and lend a hand whenever anyone needs anything.

The only negative about tincture is the base is everclear a 191proof grain alchol, but you drink a very small amount(3ml is what I take in a glass of water), so its not bad. I too gave up booze almost 15 years ago and I haven't touched a drink since then, except for maybe a dozen beer a year when my bro and I go icefishing for a week. If the everclear bothers you, glycerin tincture would always be an alternative option. Good luck to you man.
