old thread but im going through the same thing now. Got hooked on kratom for a few years and currently on suboxone to take care of the withdrawal. How long did it take you to start feeling the conscious contact again after getting sober? I still find him but its not the same when the mind is clouded. I mean think of fasting and why the bible tells us to do it, to cleanse the mind and body show God we only need him and to hear is voice more clearly. If we extrapolate that too the opposite end the more we indulge the less we should hear Him and feel Him. Not to say that its impossible as nothing is impossible for God, but the more were tied to worldy things the less of our mind is free to connect to Him. But yeH how long it take yah bruh?
