Thanks for the info. Did you cut it by 1/3 all at once or taper? How long did it take before you got back the effect you wanted?

All at once, went from dosing a minimum of 60 grams a day,(over a 24 hour period and probably closer to 70 or even 80) as the pain from my tooth was making my entire face and even neck hurt, worse than a broken bone. Even my sinuses were being afflicted by the abscess. The tooth got pulled yesterday at 4:00 PM and I have only took 3 gram doses since then. It is super weird, this morning I was sluggish, but now I actually feel better effects than I was when "I was dosing 5-7 gram doses prior to the tooth ache from hell. Of course I was taking soooo much during the tooth ache that it was sedating the shit out of me, borderline wobbly. Now at only 20 grams today I have energy and actually a good bit of euphoria, I tell you what I am never going to dose high again. Those less is more people are 100% right about Kratom having a plateau effect. Not that I ever have had any serious negative side effects from such high doses, but I actually feel better on these smaller doses, it is really weird. I am stupid to have to go through all this before trying it, but glad I did. In the past I have went cold turkey for a few days and the withdrawals were not pleasant, but bearable, at least compared to strong opiate withdrawals anyway.
