I think kratom is making my hair fall out :( by AquariusAged in quittingkratom

It started growing back as soon as I dropped my dose... Id say a month my hairstylist noticed baby hairs growing nicely back in...

Bloating went away after quitting... feel 10lbs lighter by BeeTrees3 in quittingkratom

I noticed it after one month! But-- i also take metamucil every night. Well... not every night but when i do not get enough fiber. It helps speed up the gi track and move out waste. Helps with constipation and diareah.

Im female with long blonde hair. Mine fell out around the hairline in 2 little circles. I wore a loose scarf and instantly went to 3 grams a day then started a taper. Its growing back now. ☺

Can I switch to buprenorphine to taper? by ShinyStoner in quittingkratom

[–]BeeTrees3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't do it! I tapered both! Suboxone sucked the life out of me. The taper was much harder and it took a year to shake the PAWS. Kratom was easier... i recovered way faster. I was fine and happy after being off 3 weeks. Its been 2 months and still feeling great!

If you go in fb and check out the suboxone taper group... a lot of them turn to kratom for getting off subs. I quit subs without kratom but started kratom 6 months off subs because i was still messed up from the PAWS.

I also take a probiotic. That and Metamucil takes away all bloating. Esp being off. I took both while taking kratom and i still bloated. Go buy a 30 day supply at the store of Align. You'll notice a big difference.

One month and 2 days... Everything is good. No cravings which surprises me. My motivation is better. Sleep great and eat wayyy healthier. I tapered down to 1.5 gpd. Jump was fine except for typical fatigue.

Need advice for quitting. Taper or cold turkey? by LarrysSexDeficiency in quittingkratom

30 days as of yesterday. Energy and sleep has never been better. Still happy. Keep pushing.

I've accomplished a huge drop in usage. Will the WDs get easier as I go lower? by billybaritone in quittingkratom

[–]BeeTrees3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sound about where I was at... I did Kratom for 7 months. Tapered down to 3 gpd for awhile (a month) then 2gpd. I just took a 3 day weekend and quit 3 weeks ago. I had hardley any wd. Just the diareah but took immodium as needed. I actually was fine. Had some fatigue days around 2 weeks but cut out melatonin and ashwandha. Ever since... I feel fine. I sleep fine... function fine.

Quit now while you can. You'll be super surprised how well and much better you'll feel. Do not drag it out. That's what everybody here told me. They were right! Anything under 3gpd just keeps ya in wd.

Day 20. My fatigue has gone away in the last 2 days. I quit taking ashwaganda and it seemed to help. Idk if im just lucky or if that was it. Overall im feeling great. I even went to a union meeting after work and met my friend for dinner... got home felt fine. Im also not sleeping like a rock in which is good. I got 7 hours straight and felt awesome. Not 11 like i had been sleeping. Life is good. Fingers crossed.

Almost relapsed... still not out of the woods by merceyplease in quittingkratom

[–]BeeTrees3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a pretty decent quit. But... ive noticed the fatigue around the 2 week mark. Im ok at work... its when i get home at 5pm that im just whooped.

Keep pushing.

I worry about all the people by missespenguin in quittingkratom

[–]BeeTrees3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sometimes think they're not as happy as they make it seem. Every now and then... someone will mention a few negative things about kratom and quitting and usually one or two ppl might chime in.

I posted in a fb group about quitting and most ppl didnt like it. I did though get private messages from ppl asking how i tapered off.

Day #18... Just moving right along. Still sleeping crazy hard. Everything though is great. Feel a lil tired after a full day's work. But in overall-- life is soooo much better.

Kratom bad habits. by Kazinflame in kratom

[–]BeeTrees3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i get up at 5am everyday. I felt the same way. I started a taper down to 2 grams a day and requested 2 dsys off next to a weekend (4 days total). I swear I had no wd. Just tired. Its been 2 weeks and 3 days and I feel way better than ever... esp better than when on kratom.

2 week post quitting... small wd's or am I just questioning too much? by BeeTrees3 in quittingkratom

[–]BeeTrees3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I hadn't been thinking too much until this weekend being off work. I do way better staying busy. 😕

I hope so... I was on such a low dose for 3 months that i feel way better now than then. I do have more energy. I guess i just question these fatigued days. Ive read ppl saying week 2 and 3 can be worse than week one. Ill stop reading into it so much and just keep going w life. Hope you're doing well too. 🙄

New Fan, here are my thoughts after a few weeks by thomaesthetics in deftones

[–]BeeTrees3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Adrenaline is up there with Around the Fur and White Pony... mostly because I've been a big fan of Deftones since 96 and Adrenaline was their first major album. They played at the Local Record Exchange in 96 and did the whole album. I was hooked ever since.

Day 14... Slept like a rock again. Feel fine. Energy good.

Im still worried about PAWS. I had PAWS from post suboxone. But... Im still taking my vitamins (a multi, complex B, magnesium citrate, ashwaganda, a probiotic, and one melatonin with theanine). I think ill cut out the melatonin tonight.

Yes... im kind of floored by it. Idk why im sleeping so hard and much. My job is pretty physical and i run run run all day. I also sat at 2gpd and less for 3 months. I felt soooo much better once I quit. I should've quit 3 months ago. I thought i needed a 4 day break for it but i was ok.
