Starting Shrooms, Detox questions
« on: Oct 24th, 2007, 10:57pm »

I began my current cycle on the 10th of October and started taking Topomax on the 18th but only at 25mg.  I up'ed that to 50mg on the 21st.  Its now the 24th.  
 
Imitrix-I took my first shot of 3mg imitrix on the 22nd and the second shot of 3mg the 23rd.  I hoping i wont have to take one tonight but I haven't been able to get ANY sleep without it.  
 
So to my question, for anyone who has had experience with taking shrooms.
 
How long do I have to detox of off everything?  I can definitely handle not taking the Topomax as I'm not sure its really helping, but the imitrix is getting me through this.  
 
BTW, I am only resorting to the imitrix because the 02 would abort my ch's only to have them come back with a vengence an hour later during the night.  From what I understand , Im supposed to stop ALL meds but I havent been on all that long.  any advice out there?  Thanks!!!

Thanks,  for the reply.  I have read the clusterbusters site and they have a lot of great information.   But I am eager to get started this weekend, saturday.  I am ready to stop all my meds tonight but that would mean a few nights of no sleep.  I just need to know if it would be worth it.
 
Maybe I would be better off stopping everything on saturday and dosing next saturday? (I work during the week).  
 
Thanks again and I hope your having pain free days and nights too

Yes.  
 
The day after a dose may have you feeling a little like you're hung over the next day... but dosing during the work week (in the evening, of course) will not likely interfere with your job. It may take more than one busting dose (ideally a minimum of 5 days apart) to end your cycle, though.
Oxygen and energy drinks are good abortives to use during a detox.

whatever you are taking, aside from the imitrex, you should not stop immediately, you should taper off drugs to avoid a sometimes unpleasant reaction.

you really need a few days, CB recommends 5, after the Imitrex stops.
 
a few days at least.
 
but it is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO worth it.
 
 
I did it, you can too.
 
and now I'm on the other side looking back and I've never had to touch the Imitrex pack again
 
good luck.

Hey... I got your e-mail. Hope my reply helps.
 
Also, to answer your second question here... YES!! It really IS worth it.  
Listen to Nani's advice. She won't point you in the wrong direction. She's helped me with my treatment, and I can't thank her enough!
 
 
Anybody got more advice about using O2 along with energy drinks? I personally haven't needed to use O2 this cycle, and wasn't sure how to advise it's use. Do E- drinks work better before, during, or after the O2? I know some swear by that combo, but I have not tried it.
 
Best wishes,
Adam
 
 
Edited for clarification. (I hope)  Wink

Yes , for me anyway, it is definitely worth it. The biggest problem, for me any way, is procurment. I ran out in early Oct. and already am getting some small hits. I discussed this treatment with my Dr. in earlier this month and he was very upfront and positive. He said to keep doing what works.He also mentioned that side effects were less than all of the conventional drugs that I have been using. He did say though that this treatment was not for people with emotional or mental issues. Bottom line it works.

Thanks for all the positive feedback.  
 
Right now, the hardest thing for me is tapering off the imitrix.  
 
Im only on O2 flow of 8lpm at the moment but the doc just up'ed the prescription today.  So I will now have a 15lpm regulator plus a better mask.  That may work better to abort the CH's during the night (the ones I cant seem to shake).  If that works then I will try to taper off the meds.  I will let you know how its all works out.  
 
BTW, I tried the red bull last night with my O2.  It seemed to work ok but im not sure it was much better.  I'll give it another shot tonight.
