Where can i check how far i am in "Red Myr Venom Withdrawal" ?

Also after getting the perk "Venom Slut" does the Withdrawal reduce it or does it stay at max? Knowing this could help me stock up some Red Myr Venom Vials.

Uh, so the Withdrawal timer tells you that you haven't gotten any Venom lately, and need to get more to reset it. The more Venom you take, the more your addiction goes up, until eventually you get Venom Slut, which is permanent. From then on you'll always get withdrawal without Venom with no other way of getting rid of it.

By the way, you need a lot of Venom to do this. I was cheating and it still took me forever.

The Venom slut perk doesn't depend on how much venom you chug down, but rather how long you are continually under it's influence. So you were likely chugging venom for twelve days straight, when all you needed to do was take one dose a day.

I think I'm just remembering it wrong, because what I did was take it, wait for withdrawal to kick in, and then take it again.

If you didn't yet hit 100% addiction (and didn't gain associated perk) then the addiction will decrease automatically 2% a day if you have "Myr Venom WIthdrawal" status effect active. If you did hit 100% addiction and got the perk, it becomes permanent. Details are available on the wiki page.
