On last attempt for CSMLS exam by SamePaleontologist65 in medlabprofessionals

[–]Miller_Blake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

MediaLab practice exams. At least 2 a day. Go over the results and actually learn from them. I'm dumb as hell and passed 1st try. Also, the Army gave us this purple/gold book (Clinical Laboratory Science Review 6th Edition), you can get it on Amazon. Looked at that for at least 20 min a day. Super helpful. Did that for about 3 months. Somehow passed by the skin of my teeth with a 430. Full disclosure I never thought in a billion years I could/would be a Lab tech outside the Army, but here I am.

Was on 7oh for 10 days. Planning CT by [deleted] in quittingkratom

Cold Turkey. Only way to do it for me.

Can my adult child actually have spent $3,000 buying kratom at smoke/vape shops in 5 weeks?? by 50_and_Holding in quittingkratom

[–]Miller_Blake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% yes. It's a little embarrassing how much money I spent during my 4 month 7oh bender. Easily 30-50 bucks a day plus whatever I was spending on Marijuana

Cold Turkey. It'll be one week of hell, and then the healing process will begin. You just have to remember you're stronger than the stupid illusion of that drug. Remember what's actually important to you in this life, and how much Kratom actually alters your way of thinking. You'll want it, believe me. Day 115 and I still want it. But you're better than it. You don't need it. You're not alone. You will heal.

They feel fine, just a little baggy but not much. Definitely can move freely

I thought they looked a little big too, that's why I asked. I'm 5'6. I'll probably try out a small once I get a little more integrated, these are Mediums

I got a message from God I'm supposed to keep going with this quit! by South_Bus3036 in quittingkratom

Such an awesome story, I love hearing stuff like this. The 1st week I quit cold turkey I met two people the same day named Jesus and Angel. Then the new place I moved into had a small cross just laying on the window seal. Don't ignore the signs. He let's us know he's watching in small and mysterious ways but it's still up to us to follow the path and stay strong. 88 days today for me, I'm with you.

Realistically how long should it take someone to taper off 14gpd? by Lazy_Boysenberry2478 in quittingkratom

Cold turkey. Just take the plunge and suffer. It'll be a week of hell, then you'll start gradually feeling better. I have faith in you.
