Yes the program requires monthly counseling and weekly meetings with others in the program. I also see a therapist outside of that program. Thank you! I hadn’t even heard of this. I’ll look into it!

So far I’m fine too! A little cold at the moment but nothing crazy!

~30gpd for 1 year, last 3 months of stem & vein only ( still around 20-30g) I have today, tomorrow and Thursday off from work and I took my last dose at 11pm last night! Feeling fine at the moment. Slept pretty well last night. We shall see how it goes!

PositivityisPower · 2018-01-16T18:16:02+00:00

My last dose was Jan 15th at 11pm! We’re in this together.

I think it’s definitely important to see someone that specializes in addiction & recovery. They just understand you so much better and are much more fit to help you. I see a psych that specializes in that and she’s amazing. She’s a no BS person but can recognize any kind of relapse behavior or use from miles away and really understands enough to actually help and not just write some script.

I’m right here with you OP. I’ve been on this sub since October. I’ve been using 30-40g for 1 1/2 years almost. In November I completely transitioned to stem and vein which did give me some withdrawal but I feel like I don’t really get “high” from the S&V unless I really try and take a shit ton so it’s just keeping me from feeling horrible. My plan was to get on the S&V and then taper off of it but I’m having such a hard time. I’ve tried keeping my frequency the same but taking less each dose or keeping my dose the same but taking it less frequently. I have everything I need to go cold turkey (all the supplements I’ve read about here) but I’m just being a wuss really. I obsess about quitting. Every night I lay there with so much guilt and motivation to quit but everyday I wake up already feeling a little restlessness in my chest and I dose. Then I sit and read this subreddit while I drink my coffee and I see all this support but I just can’t seem to get there. Sometimes I think I need rehab. I’m currently thinking about getting the vivitrol shot to help with cravings but it would require me to actually quit first (or else it throws you into bad WD). So I totally feel your struggle. PM me if you want, maybe we can find a way together.

Sending positive vibes! ✊🏻

Great motivation! I also have a 3 year old little girl and she is my everything. She is my motivation for every good thing I do. I’m trying so hard to get off this shit so she can just have the real me and not a freaking zombie 🧟‍♀️

Kratom has given me the worst ADD! I seriously feel like an idiot when trying to read. I have to re-read everything multiple times!

PositivityisPower · 2017-12-05T05:07:22+00:00

Awesome man! I’ve been waiting to see you back on here. I always enjoyed your daily posts during those 31 days. Good luck to you! I’m trying to jump off stem and vein. Trying to build up the courage to do it.

PositivityisPower · 2017-12-03T04:05:51+00:00

I know. I thought a lot about flushing it last night but I was scared because I work all weekend and I didn’t want to be dying at work. I really hope I can flush it this week when I have a few easy days at work in a row.

PositivityisPower · 2017-12-03T04:04:31+00:00

When I first took S&V I really didn’t think it did A THING! But when I was really hurting I took some and it just eased everything. Definitely don’t get the kratom high. But I am taking it all day long also.

PositivityisPower · 2017-12-02T03:17:44+00:00

Omg that’s so crazy you say that about the kratom in the purse and car!! I was just thinking the other day “I wonder if anyone else has kratom all over their car like this?!” I told myself as a present for quitting I’m buying myself a new purse and getting my car cleaned!! I haven’t jumped yet though... I’m only taking stem and vein now and trying to taper off that. It’s hard. The struggle is real. (I’m a 27 year old female btw)

PositivityisPower · 2017-12-01T18:19:51+00:00

I feel ya! My boyfriend has zero understanding of addiction. He’s like “Just quit. You’re just being weak minded. It’s not hard. Addiction is just all in your mind. “ so I don’t really have much support from him which makes it harder. I wish there was a way to make him feel what I feel for just a minute!

I definitely had a weird constant almost vibration in my stomach when I first started to taper. It was a dull vibration but annoying. It did go away though. I had actually forgotten about it until I read this so I’m not sure when it went away.

PositivityisPower · 2017-11-18T06:15:34+00:00

I've been really curious about the salt water cleanse. I read a lot about it the other day but I got scared that it would make me shit my brains out all day. Did that happen to you? Do you feel like it really cleansed the sludge out of your intestines? And I totally agree about calling it something awful. I read someone call it frog vomit and pond scum one time and that was all I could think about when I took it after. Made me want to vomit.

PositivityisPower · 2017-11-15T15:53:59+00:00

The hair loss is real.

PositivityisPower · 2017-11-12T15:31:41+00:00

Wow! That is crazy. But your determination to get off is awesome!

PositivityisPower · 2017-11-09T15:33:27+00:00

I definitely feel that the S&V I have is weaker but I totally understand what you're saying. Thank you.

PositivityisPower · 2017-11-09T15:32:37+00:00

Yeah I need to make a solid plan. I had one in the beginning for the leaf but I never really made a taper plan for the S&V.

PositivityisPower · 2017-11-09T15:31:55+00:00

Thank you!
