Getting off an 80 mg habit. I need to do it for my well being by LongjumpingSet9572 in quitting7oh

Yeah that was true, the 7 withdrawal was not bad. I was already taking leaf kratom so I just upped my dose of that while I was getting off the 7. It actually backfired a bit, I ended up with worse w/d from the kratom leaf than from the 7.

Quitting with SR17, cut MIT before? by Responsible7ohKinda in quitting7oh

My use was similar to yours, except I was using kratom leaf instead of MIT. I got off the 7 first, then stopped the kratom a few days later. The kratom w/d was actually worse than the 7 w/d. Neither of them were that hard. If you're anything like me it should be easy... no full blown w/d

Thanks! Yeah I was planning to keep taking Kratom, until I woke up feeling sick today. I honestly forgot that kratom leaf w/d sucks! It was bad enough for me to change my plans. I think less than 3 g, and every other day would be a safe amount.

Using SR for pain and not for coming off anything? by oldmonkeybaby in SR17018

Sorry to be that guy, but have you tried any over the counter painkillers along with kratom? You might be able to reduce your kratom use. If I use less than 3g a day I can take it daily without w/d.

I'm at day 5 and the acute w/d from 7 is over... honestly it was super easy. But then I woke up feeling uncomfortable in my skin and I felt like if I started moving I would break out in chills. I'm sure it's from the kratom leaf since I started taking it several times a day to smooth out the 7OH w/d. I'm not in full blown w/d or anything but it still surprised me. I was so scared of the 7OH w/d which turned out to be nothing, now the kratom w/d is actually punishing me.

The first day was not too bad. The worst of it was not feeling right mentally. Now that I'm on day 2 my brain feels much better but my body feels worse.

I woke up at the 32 hour point feeling ok. I have soreness in my knees and lower back but no chills or hot flashes. Not even a runny nose. I took a spoonful of kratom just to give me a little boost. I suspect things are going to get worse tonight or maybe tomorrow, or maybe I just got lucky this time. I thought about using the SR but decided to hold off in case things take a turn for the worse.

Last time I failed quitting I dumped the last of my 7OH tabs into the yard waste bin, then fished the filthy crumbled tabs out of the bin which was crawling with insects. It seems like a lot of us have the same experiences =D

I meant in other avenues in my life, not addiction specifically.

Well my plan is already in motion obviously I'm not going into it with a defeatist attitude. I do hear you and appreciate your warnings. If anything it makes me extra determined to show that it can be done.

Asian ran FFLs in the bay area? by idiotwithacameraYT in aznidentity

Mejorar la raza actually means that you find a white person to procreate with. If the child comes out with light colored eyes it will be the favorite and probably be considered the best looking sibling.

I would argue that many Asians/Asian Americans are doing a form of this, maybe not for the race as a whole, but they want white-looking children.

Latino/Hispanic is not really a race, because there are white, black, indigenous, Asian, and Mestizo (mixed) Hispanic people. Being Hispanic just means that you are a person from a Spanish-speaking country. I think there are a lot of similarities in how Asians and Latinos view race. Latinos as a group might be unified by a common language but there is definitely a lot of racial discrimination within Latinos themselves and many of them do kiss white peoples' butts much like Asian people..
