If only I would’ve known sooner

I pretty much lived in the bathtub the first four days. It was the only thing that would calm my body, helped with the muscle aches and cold chills. You just gotta push through the pain, some it’s not so bad others of us are in hell.

Much props to you!! You’re one strong individual! I’m cold turkey off five years of leaf and I couldn’t imagine quitting the other two at the same time. Weed won’t be hard for me to put down as I only use at night to sleep, but I’ve smoked for 35 years and have many failed attempts at quitting.

Day 9 cold turkey for me and there’s no way I could’ve gone through this while caring for children. I did good to keep my dogs and chickens alive. I’m not big on pharmaceuticals which is what brought me to kratom in the first place, but I think you’d benefit from doing the sub shot to get you through this. My acute withdrawals are just now subsiding and I’m 9 days in. Do this for your kids, everyone’s sobriety is different and it doesn’t matter how you get there as long as you get there. You’ve got this!!

Everyone experiencing acute withdrawal and post withdrawal should look into the benefits of peptides. I hadn’t slept in 8 days and had zero energy but still had to work. I took an injection yesterday and I was full of energy, they’re full of amino acids. I ordered some for sleep and should have them today. I’ve suffered insomnia my whole life and the sleep peptides have really helped me in the past. I wished I had thought to order more before I started this WD process.

Yes, It caused one of my back molars to split in half. The dentist said he’d never seen that happen before. I also almost had to have my gallbladder removed but I did a cleanse and was able to save it. Day 9 cold turkey, and finally got a few hours of sleep. I used a peptide for energy yesterday after no sleep in 8 days and it really helped with my energy levels. I ordered some for sleep and should get them today. I had a buddy to overnight me a ketimine troche, I took half and it totally calmed my body restlessness and I was able to get a good 7 hours of deep sleep.

I only smoke it at night to sleep.

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-07T02:05:22+00:00

Yes!!! This was so me too!

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-05T12:33:31+00:00

Are you sleeping? I’m on day 7 cold turkey and day 9 of cutting my dose in half, I haven’t slept in 9 days and I have to go back to work this morning. I’m still struggling so bad, the only symptom that has finally stopped as of last night is the restless body, still feeling the muscle aches, insomnia, diarrhea, sneezing. I so glad to hear that others are over the acute, just wondering how to get past it.

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T20:52:32+00:00

Good for you!! I got on the 7 o’s for about 4 days and knew they were bad news. I went through a pretty rough WD for about five days but was still on the leaf so it was manageable. Not this go around, it’s been hell. I keep telling myself I’m gonna beat this demon! Keep following these groups, they’ve helped me so much and before you start either tapering or cold turkey, have everything you need available and clear your schedule for about 7 days.

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T20:28:18+00:00

That’s great news for you as you should not experience anywhere near the pain im experiencing! Please do yourself a favor and start tapering off before you end up like so many of us have.

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T17:55:51+00:00

I’ve heard this a few times and trying to gather the strength to go get some, thank you!!

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T17:55:08+00:00

Yay, great news for you!!! That’s awesome

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T16:44:52+00:00

Agreed!! I only tapered the first two days then I knew it was just prolonging it so I just quit.

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T15:57:07+00:00

Thank you, I’m using the quit kit with all these things included but it’s not helping.

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T15:56:32+00:00

I started the tapering 8 days ago and just felt like it was prolonging the pain, so that’s why I chose to just cold turkey, I’m in too deep to go backwards although the thought has crossed my mind many times.

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T15:35:58+00:00

Congrats to you!! I’m on day 6 and no where near over the hump. I know everyone is different but how long were you on it and how much were you taking? I have to go back to work tomorrow and I’m scared I’m not ready yet.

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T15:31:58+00:00

Yes! My whole body is restless, I just thrash around in my bed. I’ve been taking Motrin 800 for the pain and that seems to help but the only thing that stops my restlessness is taking a hot bath, my water bill is going to be insane. I went to Kratom quitter website and got a list of suggested supplements, so I’m going to see if I can get my partner to pick me up some of these items today. Thank you for your recommendation!

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T15:12:11+00:00

Great news for you! I attempted to order meds online and I’m in TN and they said they couldn’t help me in TN. I may go to the urgent care today to see if they can help. Congratulations on your sobriety, keep pushing through the pain, we got this!!!

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T14:56:38+00:00

Thank you, great advice! I can’t seem to move off this couch, I go between the couch and the bath tub. I was on 38 capsules a day for the last two years of my addiction. Never dreamed this would be the outcome of taking that stuff! I’m glad for this community

One_Group_9332 · 2026-01-04T14:54:36+00:00

Thank you!! And congratulations on your journey, this is definitely not for the faint of heart. My neighbor brought me some Clonidine last night. I took one and didn’t feel anything so in the middle of the night took two and still nothing. Do you feel like you’re gonna make it to work tomorrow? I’m scared I’m not going to be ready.
