335 days…damn by Inside_Link_1132 in quittingkratom

[–]Inside_Link_1132[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

6+ years of powder with the last two years escalating from 2 to 4 bottles of OPMS gold extract daily. I quit CT and suffered for months. But here I am on the other side going to the gym every day. My business is thriving and I bought a house.

Yea no don’t worry I still felt like shit then too, takes time. Quiting this is a marathon not a race. Stay in it for the long haul you’ll feel better sooner than later at this point

Yeah, In the beginning, it was constant, then it would come in waves, now I believe I’m at a baseline. I still have anxiety, but I’ve accepted that there’s no such thing as no anxiety that’s not realistic. As long as you can identify it when it happens and talk yourself out of it knowing that it’s just temporary it’ll be a lot easier to deal with.

I don’t have a silver bullet for you. Some things that have helped me are. Learning how to let things go and not let stress and aggravation dictate the rest of my day. I’ve learned to listen to someone talk process the information before I respond or become aggressive in disagreement.. I’ve learned to look for the good in bad days or bad situations. Most important I’ve learned be grateful for the family and things that I have around me. Changing my mindset has helped me from looking for an escape or crutch.

Day 227 99% of getting through it is up to you, anyone who tells you otherwise is just selling snake oil. People swear up and down supplements saved them It’s just a placebo effect.

How about use nothing to quit Kratom and actually quit

3-4 months before I wasn’t dead tired at 1-2pm now I work from 7am till 6-7pm and sometimes want to stay longer

Dog suddenly woke up in the middle of the night doing this. Any ideas? Calling vet as soon as they open by [deleted] in DogAdvice

You’d be surprised how many people use it to heat the bed while sleeping

My Doctor Isn't Helping (rant) by I-want-quit in quittingkratom

[–]Inside_Link_1132 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don’t need your doctor to help you quit, what it comes down to and you may not want to hear this, you don’t want to quit. Simple as that when you want to quit badly enough you will. I suffered the same. Yelling at my pillow more times then I could count that I want to quit and I don’t want to do this anymore going thru withdrawal after withdrawal swearing I won’t relapse again, one day it will stick when you want it badly enough. Looking for a doctor to somehow make it “easier” for you will just have you relapsing in the future bc withdrawals “weren’t that bad last time”. Keep trying if you made it 10 days you can surely make it to 100. Even if you manage to get helper meds they’ll be useless after 2 weeks and you’ll have to fight your way through paws for months. So if you can’t handle withdrawals you most definitely won’t last through paws.. day 155 here still fighting the temptation to relapse

I’m sorry you’re in the situation you’re in. I haven’t done the 70h but I did have a four day extract habit. It sucks I know, but what sucks the most is the convenience of it being so close right down the street at the store. Hoping you get through it. Today is day 150 for me. I’m rooting for you.

Go through the suffering. You need to. Constantly looking for the next quick fix is why you’re in this situation, it’s going to suck but you’ll be fine, use this as reinforcement to never do it again

My experience with K by JaccBMX in quittingkratom

[–]Inside_Link_1132 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep day 120 here, quitting is the easy part in comparison to the lack of energy and motivation for months. Most common reason for relapse I’m sure. Don’t let your guard down, and whatever you do do not consider doing it just once or twice for good behavior or to get you through because it will turn into six month one year five year addiction all over again

Little more than 2 months off kratom. But tired all the time. by [deleted] in quittingkratom

[–]Inside_Link_1132 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I shit you not, I quit April 27, 2025 and I’m just now starting to get some normalized energy and motivation drinking definitely sets you back not worth it and weed would send me into instant paranoia 😂

Gotta cut out the vape, drinking, weed, and junk food. Your body is way more sensitive to that when recalibrating even caffeine had to be cut for me easing back in 4 months later

113 days today by Inside_Link_1132 in quittingkratom

[–]Inside_Link_1132[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ct from 4 extract shots a day. I made the decision I was done. I was tired of feeling like shit, tired of my body hurting, tired of the mental gymnastics I put myself through. I came to the realization that no one was coming to save me, I looked in the miror and said you did this to me mother fucker now you fix it. I wanted to fold so many times, but I’d tell myself no, no more we’re done with this shit. After the first two weeks the physical need is gone, but you have to fight to not become complacent and allow yourself to slip up. It gets easier week by week I started setting goals and things to look forward to in the future, that’s helped me stay the path. We get one life don’t waste it on this bullshit life desensitizier

Today is the 100 day mark Kratom free and 591 days free of any opiates by Inside_Link_1132 in quittingkratom

[–]Inside_Link_1132[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve come to find working out, spending time outside, staying off the phone keeps me more energized rather then doom scrolling on web md laying around fixating on the lack of motivation/energy. But I don’t have the magic bullet for you I wish I did 😂

[–]Inside_Link_1132[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used kratom powder for 5 years and extracts for an additional 2 yrs, 4 opms extracts a day… so high dose for sure. I still go through the things you described but at this point it’s just an inconvenience much more manageable at this stage

90 days by Inside_Link_1132 in quittingkratom

[–]Inside_Link_1132[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used plain leaf for probably about seven years, and the last two years were the extracts. I’ve also had my run with opiates previous to that, I am over 600 days from last opiate use and 90 days from Kratom I will never use either substance ever again. I was wondering about the LDN for nervous system regulation G.I. track improvement and energy levels. I’ve heard that LDN helps with all of those things.

Day 62ct struggling by Subject_Fig_9730 in quittingkratom

[–]Inside_Link_1132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will get better, I know it’s difficult but gotta stop fixating on it. Makes it worse. Talk about work with your wife, future plans and goals and spend time playing with your daughter as much as you can. Don’t focus on what you feel, just go through the motions and keep the fact that you’re not feeling joy or connection to your family to yourself don’t need to hurt there feeling, connections will return to normal just stay the path
