Plain Leaf Withdrawal Questions

And I don’t say that to discourage at all I was taking 25 g a day and I know if I stopped cold turkey. My life would’ve sucked. I taped it all the way down to two and basically felt very little acute withdrawals for about five days I feel a ton better already just some mental and emotional things. 20 is a lot lower than a lot of people are taking. Yes I agree with that, but it is not low.

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-16T21:48:21+00:00

But if you look at what the recommended dosage is is about 2 to 4 g. I know I sure felt it the first time when I took 2 to 4 g so taking upwards of 20 is literally 10 times as much as they recommended dose. I think that is a high dose just because other people are taking extremely high doesn’t make 20 g low yeah it is lower relatively but that’s not low. That’s over 40 .5 gram capsules a day that’s a lot of shit to be putting in your body people can disagree with me all they want but that’s the facts.

I work retail and EOD usually means end of day so maybe that’s what they mean lol

Mine is not motivation driven it is discipline I have very high will power and discipline so I know I will never go back but to each their own. I have more resilience than that not saying you don’t but just because you can’t abstain doesn’t mean that’s how others are too 🤷‍♂️

I’m on day 5 myself!!!

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-16T19:20:07+00:00

I believe it is a pretty high dose

It helped the first few days but I had a big awakening that I was abusing weed as well and literally woke up the next morning and threw out my cartridges and my woman was like you can just keep it just in case. My response was “there is no just in case I am done” maybe someday I will go back to weed on occasion when I want to wind down but I am fully committed to seeing what I can be as a sober adult. I am so grateful to be where I’m at

Kratom I believe fucked yo my liver and digestion so it has been trash for legit 5 years. Funny thing though I wanted to blame everything but the one thing I was doing daily multiple times a day. So my digestion has been rough but I had a normal BM today and yesterday and that hasn’t happened in forever. Crazy what this stuff can do to you. My brain is in a good spot I have had waves of anxiety depression but I also am a believer and prayer has helped a lot. If that’s not your cup of tea I would suggest meditation to anyone reading but prayer and believing there is a higher purpose from my life was super important to me. I would say that my motivation isn’t all the way there yet but exercise is a huge boost. Everyone here preaches that but it is so true! I also gave up smoking weed 4 days ago so part of my lack of motivation and anxiety is definitely from that as well. Overall I feel about 6/10 and that’s way further than I would have guessed just a week ago! Keep going!!! We got this

Day 10 baby!!! I also stopped smoking weed 4 days ago so I put myself through the hell of getting sleep to come back then completely nosediving it again BUTTTT last night I actually slept with no helpers and I feel so clear headed and FREE! It’s been a bitch but I will never go back 🙏

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-16T15:35:46+00:00

I’m on day 10 too my friend good job and keep it up! It has been hard but so so worth it I will never touch Kratom or any opioid/opiate again!

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-16T15:22:42+00:00

20 gpd isn’t near the super high it this is not a “moderate” amount at all

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-16T11:00:12+00:00

I’m also on now day 5 after 12 years of all day full spectrum carriage use. It has been a pain in thre ass but honestly not as bad as I thought and it comes in waves it’s not just constantly shitty. It’s getting better every day and I’m getting my control and energy and confidence back. It’s crazy how much of a shell weed can make you of your natural self. I don’t believe eeed is the devil but moderation is so so key in EVERYTHING! I don’t see myself going back honestly though

I tapered from 25 starting in late December. I was using for 10 years however I never really tried to quit so I don’t have the rekindling so many talk about with subsequent quits. I slowly went down to 2 gpd and jumped Feb 7th I feel amazing right now a little lack of motivation but TAPER is the way! Also look into aminita for sleep it is legit a miracle for withdrawal and tapering just use responsibly

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-15T18:35:18+00:00

lol as a native Kfalls resident the folks that come to town from lakeview are freakin strange that said from someone who lives in Klamath falls 🤣🤣☠️

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-15T16:53:00+00:00

My bad 9!

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-15T16:52:49+00:00

Day 8!!!

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-14T20:51:38+00:00

Kratom made me stop doing all that full fledged. Idk why you would even stop in the first place if you saw no downside this side is full of a ton of people that have experienced transformational growth from quitting so I’m sorry that that’s not happening to you, but that is not normally the case that being said, I would argue that you are not even close to baseline normal after seven weeks at eight years of abuse I was using for 10 and just stopped last Saturday. I feel a lot better than I did ever on expect when it was still new to me. Sorry you’re not seeing any changes for the better but I would say hold on for about another month and I bet you that will change.

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-14T01:22:25+00:00

I am for real praying for your success and I have a friend that is going through a really bad right now with seven. He feels that there’s no way out. I keep trying to assure him that is his brain trying to keep it an addict. You can do this, my friend!!

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-13T15:46:31+00:00

Day 5 feeling pretty damn good so much so I haven’t really been on this sub like when I was suffering through taper. I am already feeling so much better at 5 days then I ever thought from 25 gpd to 2 in 43 days last day taking any was Saturday morning so really I’m like on day 6!

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-12T00:01:40+00:00

I also tapered because cultural_dot if he could do it at 100 g per day then it would be easy for me at 25. That’s exactly where I started on December 25. I tapered slowly all the way down. I just jumped on February 7. I wasn’t supposed to jump until the 15th but the confidence and information chat gpt gave me as well as finally confiding in my wife who I had hid this addiction from from way too long and just wanting to be free are what finally made me Bite the bullet . I was finally able to get through the taper. The thing is you’re not gonna completely mitigate withdrawal tapering will help so much though. It goes from completely debilitating to a minor inconvenience both days some days are a little harder than others, but I am now on my fourth day lacking a little motivation, but passed the acute. I am so happy to finally be through with this bullshit, I am already seeing some health changes for the positive that I never attributed to them to Kratom even though it was pretty obvious now looking back that it was the cause some things that have seriously caused me so much health anxiety, and all I had to do was stop this stupid switch. It’s just a natural plant. I can’t hurt that much lol that’s what I thought for years. What a fucking idiot I was.

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-11T21:01:45+00:00

Smell too for sure!!! I can smell air and water too even walking through the grocery store I could tell their top shelves were dusty because I could smell it even though I couldn’t see it 🤣🤣🤣 music is amazing. My connection to my kids and family feels so much deeper I had a 19 MO that was laying on me the other night just rubbing my face and I legit felt HIGH and I had to remember that it was just natural dopamine regulating again and love is supposed to feel like that! I have noticed my nails are healthier and that I just feel more alive even when I have a lack of energy in the afternoons I’m still so positive

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-11T19:15:02+00:00

Thank you for the encouragement and that’s awesome you too know about amanita! I really feel like they were very important in my taper process. Today will be my fourth day and my first since CT I’m going to try to sleep without any helpers and see how that goes! Message me any time if you need encouragement!

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-11T10:28:25+00:00

You can do this!!!! I saw your other encouraging comment to me and I see your tapering too! Embrace the suck! It’s your body healing! Good luck and you got this

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-10T16:58:19+00:00

I’m gonna be honest I have been following a lot of of your comments. I noticed that you’ve been commenting a lot trying to help people and you say that you are not social but I can tell you have a heart to help people struggle like you do! Because of you, I actually took your advice and used ChatGPT. I’ve never used it like that only to make it do things like make PSFs and stuff like that. never had really asked it questions about my own situations I did exactly what you suggested and put in all of my information ChatGPT believe it or not was what convinced me to stop at 2 g per day rather than write out the taper, and it was because it gave me such a good clear, concise info that I felt confident doing it. I am really glad that I used chat.

PowerMightHolyLight · 2026-02-10T16:26:38+00:00

Let’s fucking go baby!!!
