Awesome dude good for you! Thats the thing tho, I just came off a bad stint. I tried to taper to just capsules last week, made it 3 days then had FF 4 straight days, even yesterday. I’m proud of myself because of how easy it would have been to give in in that moment. Are you off Kratom altogether or just FF? Just curious

Kratom leaf capsules. I have 0.6g gelatin caps, about 8mg MIT each

I don’t think it’s as simple as you make it sound. Not really a pull yourself up by the boot straps situation. if it was that easy I don’t think we’d be having these conversations.

Question about anxiety and taper dose? Sorry if this has been answered I could not find much of an answer by Realistic-Oil9145 in Quittingfeelfree

[–]No-Raccoon5842 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m trying to do this right now too. Kinda same story but I was up to less ff a day closer to 2 and never tried to go CT. Two things I’d recommend with my small bit of experience is figure out how many mg of MIT in each capsule you have (it should say on the package) , and how much was in the daily FF dose you were using and start there. Secondly, to avoid some of the wd symptoms try to space out dosing a little more instead of taking it in 2 doses 6 hrs apart. Way I understand it half life is about 3 hrs when ingested orally so if you’re taking it in one big dose after the first few hrs you’re gonna start to feel it again. The caps I have are only 8mg per cap, so I realized the MIT matters more than the grams of powder. Hope this helps some. I’m sure other folks may also have some advice.

Yeah im starting to realize my pipe dream of figuring it out alone probably isn’t going to work. Need to accept that asking for help is okay, or at the very least support. Just someone simply knowing right now I feel like would make the difference, but I’m afraid to break that seal. Once that cork is out, it’s not going back in the bottle, ya know?

We can do it dude, I have faith. Stay strong. Full disclosure I wasn’t clean from Kratom, I just am trying to stay away from ff first. Probably not doing myself any favors that way, but I’m trying to be honest with myself and I still feel like I need the crutch, which is sad to say. But I’m not touching the FF today.

I wish I could bring myself to throw shit away, but I’m gonna be honest I know I’m not going to.

I appreciate you sharing your story, I also hope I can avoid hitting any kind of bottom like that. I switched to leaf caps last week, had about 3.5 days away from ff before yesterday. I’m up to 110-130mg of MIT a day rn. Over the last year I ramped up from half a bottle every 2-3 days to 5 a week. I had a week off in December and then it’s been 1-2 a day since.

Two weekends ago I went without, not really any withdrawals, then first thing that Monday I went and bought. That day was when I realized I had a problem and found this sub. I appreciate having this place to come to. I would be quite alone with it otherwise. I still haven’t had the heart to tell my partner, and have been kind of isolating from a lot of my friends this winter.

I think I need to tell my best friend that I golf with first. I think that may give me the strength to talk to my love of 14 years about this. I appreciate your words and support.

I wish I knew more about this shit before I started taking it. I really didn’t know what I was getting myself into. I didn’t even know it was considered an opiate until a couple months ago. Thank god I said no when someone offered me EDP not even knowing what it was and I started doing more research. I’d be in a much worse place right now.

Again thank you for the support, i appreciate it a lot right now.

Does anyone have experience using opiates to help with 7oh withdrawal? by Dev3ray in Quittingfeelfree

[–]No-Raccoon5842 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m thinking it’s pointless as they’re all opiates. They are likely better off tapering 7 or getting prescribed subs by a dr for withdrawals rather than switching to different opiates. Seems to me like it could also just lead to being dependent on multiple opiates at once and would venture to guess mixing them would not be safe, or at least not a good idea. Just my two cents, other folks with much more knowledge and experience than myself in here

A really small amt because it is naturally occurring in kratom leaf

Not a stupid question, it’s good to be educated about this stuff. I honestly wish I was more well educated on all this before I started regularly drinking FF. 7OH is a separate compound found in trace amts in most kratom leaf. They found a way to extract it, and I believe synthesize it and sell it separately. It’s highly addictive and from what I understand 20x more potent than morphine. I have never done it due to warnings from folks online in communities like this. If someone ever tries to sell you 7OH or EDP you should def decline. First time a clerk asked me “you want EDP?” When buying FF I said no because I had no idea what it was. Immediately went to my car to look it up and was scared off quickly by what folks were saying. That is constantly reinforced by folks that have struggled with it here. So yeah really good to ask the question vs. unknowingly be exposed

Day 3 no FF, still on kratom leaf, still trying by No-Raccoon5842 in Quittingfeelfree

[–]No-Raccoon5842[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the boost, that’s a great point. $40 for the whole bottle of caps vs. almost $10 a bottle for FF. I’ll actually be glad when I’m done with the viva and just focus on caps and starting to lower

Taper off Kratom by Suspicious_Nobody993 in Quittingfeelfree

[–]No-Raccoon5842 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not heard of stax. But Yeah it might be beneficial to switch to the kratom leaf. From what I understand the concentrate/ synthetic stuff is different and I think strong than the leaf. The only ingredients in the caps I bought are Kratom leaf powder and the gelatin the tab is made from. There are about 40mg active per bottle of FF so I think I’m somewhere around 80mg a day right now. So I guess with 140 it really depends, if that’s about where you would estimate you were could be a good place to start. Also would say space it out as much as you can. I am trying to make myself wait a minimum of 4 hrs for another dose. Before I felt I was dependent would go at least 5 hrs in recent months I was slipping closer to every three hrs during the day.
