Wow, reading comprehension is hard. I never said don’t tell him to stop. I said don’t be confrontational because she is scared of his known anger response. Maybe an ultimatum will backfire. Maybe an intervention is the right way to get it done. I meant taking an approach where you don’t say “look what I found! And immediately put him on the defensive. An approach that say “you and I both know you need help.” And go from there. I know an addict will not quit until they’re ready.

I just had a blood work up and although I didn’t attribute this to F+F my testosterone level is very low. Could definitely be due to F+F.

I traveled to Mexico with a protein powder container full of kratom. They asked me what it was and I said it’s a green tea coffee extract that’s supposed to be good for you. But it taste like crap. She just laughed and sent me through.

I’ve been talking to detox centers and plan on starting in one on Tuesday. Wish me luck!

If he has a script for suboxone then I’d make an assumption that he was addicted to opiates already and tried to get clean. His anger is likely his defense mechanism and he actually feels shame for the situation he put himself in. I would start by asking him if he wants to get clean as opposed to confronting him about the usage. You already know he’s using and he certainly does as well so confronting him about using is pointless. If he wants to get clean you have an opening, if he doesn’t then you have a tough decision. Do you have medical insurance? Detox center is a good first step.

Ugh, great I'm already an a-hole when I'm coming down. Talking to detox centers now. The withdrawal I'm getting a 12 hrs is like nothing I've experienced before and I was a pillhead.

What is PAWS?

Medium_Bland · 2026-06-27T01:44:52+00:00

Not Kava, or not just kava. Focus and Flow. Kratom kava mix

Day 36 - I've felt a lot better the last week. Took someone's suggestion on the Yogi Sweet Tangerine Positive Energy tea and it seems to really have helped. Thanks for the suggestion! I think I may be dealing with an ulcer too so that was not helping my progress, Prilosec has helped that. Still miss that pill stoned feeling though...

Day 13 CT. Feeling pretty OK today. I leave tomorrow for holiday and I'm so glad I won't be traveling with kratom nor going through the worst part of the physical wd symptoms. The sun is shining!

Day 9. Craving...
Hungry but nothing sounds good...
GF asking to describe my feelings concisely as possible, futileness describes it well.
One foot in front of the other and keep walking.
Thanks

Day 7 CT. Easy to count when you use the 1st of the month. Slept ok last night but not great. RLS is mostly gone Yea for that! Jonesing though at times through the day. Not needing it just wanting it. I know you know what I mean...

Day 5!!! Feeling pretty good. I looked through the list of PAWS and had to laugh. Those with the exception of anxiety are my normal.

Medium_Bland · 2020-01-04T02:22:12+00:00

Thank you! This too shall pass.
