I’m currently on day 3 of my taper from FF. I’m still on a somewhat high dose as I was regularly using 10. It’s insane to me how dependent my body and mind have become to this poison. I am trying to space out the doses and not stack them. It was odd to have a feeling of energy this morning after the gym instead of being completely sedated from stacking. I am feeling a little more anxiety today, but as another poster said, just lean into the pain. This is going to suck, I can feel that it’s going to get so much worse before it gets better. I am hoping that I can stick with the plan and lean into that pain. We can all get through this.

Has anyone had any success mitigating withdrawal symptoms by working out? I imagine that it would be extremely difficult to work out while in peak withdrawal. I have heard some individuals say it might be beneficial for brain rebalancing. I feel like it might be worth it even if it slightly lessens the symptoms.

Hello everyone!

This is my first time posting in this subreddit, possible even Reddit entirely. I’ve been taking FF for a couple of years now and gradually increasing the dose as I become more tolerant. I’ve been averaging 8-10 a day over the last month and I have been feeling horrible. Fatigue, stomach ache, anxiety and insomnia. I can feel it slowly killing me. I’ve always been a pretty healthy person, tried to workout regularly and eat clean. I’m embarrassed that I’ve let myself get this far with FF. My state has recently banned FF which I think might be the motivation for me to finally taper then quit. Do you folks have any recommendations for first starting a taper? I really want to go CT, but my baseline anxiety is already high. I’m worried I would be setting myself up for failure. My plan is to drop 1 bottle every 2-3 days until I’m done. Currently I have magnesium and some electrolyte supplements in hopes that I’ll be able to mitigate some of the WD symptoms, I am still anticipating the worst. Thank you in advance, and thank you for all of your posts in this subreddit. Reading through these has been truly inspiring and motivational to me. It’s nice to not feel alone in this. I really just want to be the person who I was before.
