Posted by 7-Hydroxymitragynine, or, simply, 7-OH, is becoming an increasingly popular tool for social occasions. Generally, one could summarize this sort of usage as “recreational”, although it has to be said that in comparison to other recreational drugs that are widely accepted and considered “safe”, such as marijuana or alcohol, 7-OH has a fairly steep risk profile that needs to be respected, and in the case of socialization, has very specific dosage, use case, and consistency of use recommendations that should be followed to a T.
7-OH has a particularly high risk of dependency development, in addition the it’s infamously brutal withdrawal effects. Knowing this, one should take extra care to remind themselves that 7-OH isn’t a toy. It isn’t something that should be taken in a whim, and isn’t a substance that can be easily shook if an addiction or dependency begins to develop. Because of this, it should go without saying that someone who has a history of drug abuse or an addictive personality should never take 7-OH for any reason, lest they risk an addiction forming. And believe us, this is a curse that left without tempting.
How to Socialize with 7-OH
Presuming you don’t have an addictive personality or a history of drug abuse, you might consider 7-OH for it’s euphoric effects in a social situation. It increases passivity and agreeableness, and, anecdotally, users report higher levels of enjoyment at parties or other such events. In short, it makes you enjoy the company of others more.
If you want to use 7-OH for this reason, you’re best off obeying the generally agreed upon recommended dosage rules and understand what exactly each tier is going to do for you. For a general guide, follow this:
- 5 – 1 milligram: Slight effect of improved mood, maybe some light pain relief, but no guarantees on that front. This dosage is excellent for new users to test out their body’s response to the alkaloid without delving past the shallow end.
- 2 – 4 milligrams: The previous dosages effects, but increased. While still considered a light dosage by most standards, the pain relief will be much more noticeable and the mood improvement will be enough to encroach on “euphoria” territory. Low risk of tolerance buildup and dependency issues in this range so long as taken with scarcity.
- 5 – 7 milligrams: A moderate dosage. The effects of 7-OH within this dosage will be akin to what the alkaloid is predominantly advertised at doing: relieving anxieties, creating a sense of euphoria, relieving even strong pain, and aid users in falling asleep later in the day. At this dosage, risks of tolerance buildup and dependency development become more pronounced, and responsible usage becomes extremely important.
- 8 – 10 milligrams: The highest dosage that can be recommended to experienced users before the risk of repository issues, addiction, and eventual withdrawal increase significantly. This dosage should generally be reserved for users who don’t experience the kind of pain management they’re seeking, but also understand that they won’t need said pain relief for more than the next 2 to 3 days at most.
Something users should keep in mind; 7-OH is a great tool for socialization, but only in the sense that it can make a rare occasion more memorable if all parties involved are okay with substance use. Additionally, repeated, consistent use for multiple occasions will result in an addiction, so that sort of repetitive consumption is unacceptable.
This is the exact reason why users who opt for 7-OH due to its applications with pain management will, at most, stick to a schedule that roughly allows for 3 to 4 days of usage per week, with breaks either after or in between dosages. Responsible pain management usage generally stops around two weeks of consumption. Bear in mind, that’s generally the most consistent 7-OH usage can get before it becomes a real problem, and only in moderate to low dosages (anything above 10 milligrams increases the risk of respiratory issues beyond acceptable levels).
Given the extreme nature of those circumstances, it should be understood that using 7-OH for social, recreational purposes will have much stricter general guidelines. For a start, the level of consistency 7-OH should be taken in should be no more than a couple days in a row, one serving per day, and with at least three months in between sessions. This allows users to make space for the likes of music festivals and other celebrations that might span multiple days, and gives a massive width of space in between sessions to ensure the user completely negates any change of dependency development.
For socialization, no more than 5 milligrams is needed, and you can likely do less and be perfectly content.
