Good morning, y'all.
Earlier than usual start to the day, it's gonna be a busy one... got a urology appointment at 8 to see what we're gonna do about this lack of testosterone in my blood and what we're (still not) doing about the fucking tumor in my kidney.

Counseling at 11, work at 4 this afternoon (that's gonna be a madhouse, pizza parlor the night before Thanksgiving) and a shitload of stuff to do to get ready for Thanksgiving tomorrow in between, AND try to find time to decarb some flower and make butter. Yikes. Probably not all gonna get done, but dammit it's all IMPORTANT lol. Oh yeah, gotta pick to my bupe script today too, and try to keep myself stoned enough on some ultra-high-qualuty flower not to be tempted to fuck up my taper - today is day 6.
Soooo...
Coffee
Nic
thc - vape and flower
with 12mg bupe, 30mg dxm, 15mL bso and maybe some food later... stomach feeling kinda squirrely, but at least good enough to accept coffee so far.
@BK38 I'm sorry about you problem with the benzo dosing... not even totally sure that they exist, but have you researched into possible benzo potentiators? I know I was recently in the exact same scenario with my bupe, body SCREAMING at me for more by mid afternoon everyday, without fail. I didn't want to go up, like you said, just about refuse to go up... with the addition of a couple common, cheap substances - bso and dxm - I was not only able to not go up, but to cut my dose my 25% with minimal wd symptoms.
Anyway.. you're no dummy and I'm sure you've probably thought about this, and I know benzos are a whole nother ballgame, but I just thought it was worth mentioning.
