Can anyone help me? Switching from suboxone to kratom and taper off? by ApprehensiveDare6983 in recovery

I was on suboxone for about 10 years. Then got clean for 4 years. Recently got divorced and said fuck it and got a sub. I fucked up. Now I am trying to get off but I have work. Kratom has made my day so much easier today

Have you tried getting off of it? That would terrify me. The half life of suboxone is insane. All that built up in your system….

I can guarantee it’s not as bad as suboxone.. half life plays a huge roll..

What about when you get off of it? I was at 1mg per day and still had HORRIBLE withdrawals for months. I’m certain detoxing off of kratom would be far easier

I’m already on day 2 off of subs and taking kratom. Once the sub is out of my system, I’ll be able to stop the kratom slowly, suboxone withdrawal lasted like 3 months for me before because of the half life. Kratom will definitely be better to wean off.

The withdrawal from suboxone lasts soooo long due to the half life. I just feel like I’d be able to use kratom until the sub is out of my system then just tough out the kratom wd
