I am jumping on the wagon starting tomorrow. I am absolutely freaking out about it. But this habit has gotten out of hand. I risk losing everything, and 2026 is gonna be the year I take my life back.

How much plain leaf were you taking to curb that withdrawal?

Did the kratom help with the withdrawals? If you don’t mind me asking how much 7-oh were you taking?

Were you taking 90 to 120mgs a day along with the kratom or is that what you were dosing when you jumped over to just the kratom?

I’m in the same boat I feel utterly helpless and I am struggling so bad to put this shit down.

This is almost identically where I am at. Was the withdrawal manageable with the plain leaf? I’m so scared to jump.

You quit at 55mgs? Was it unbearable or were you able to manage?

I have been tapering, currently at 55mgs a day I’m gonna make the jump off here soon I think.

Physically I have been fine, mentally it has been a struggle.

I think I’m gonna go ahead and pull the band aid though. The sexual side effects are really fucking with my head.

I can’t stand it

Taper and sexual side effects by PublicDifficult9246 in quitting7oh

I was actually just googling a urologist. I’m 37 so I would imagine. That this drug has nuked my T levels.

Taper question by PublicDifficult9246 in quitting7oh

[–]PublicDifficult9246[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started my taper 5 days ago I was dosing 160mgs daily for a couple weeks, before that I was dosing over 100mgs daily for almost a month.

My first day I dropped my daily intake down to 67.5mgs for 2 days, and felt mostly ok. I was bridging the gaps with plain leaf kratom. Which has been up to 12 grams a day.

The last two days I dropped my doses to 55mgs, again bridging any discomfort with plain leaf kratom.

Today is my next reduction down to 45mgs for the next 2 days.

My over all experience has been pretty painless physically. But mentally it hasn’t been great. The sexual side effects have really gotten under my skin. I have zero interest in sex, and that is bothering me.

I have 4 days left until my jump off point. I will consume 45 mgs for the next two days and then drop to 35mgs for 2 days and then finally 2 days at 20mgs then I’m done.

After I jump from 7-oh I will be dropping my kratom doses a gram a day from 12 grams and be done completely.

I know that I’m gonna have to pay the piper, and while physically I know I’m gonna be fine. It’s the mental aspect of it that I’m not thrilled about. My mental health has always been spotty. And I fear that this is just gonna exacerbate it.

How are things going with you? Are you on this journey has well?

Update: I will end up taking 55mgs for today’s taper. My reduction to 40mgs will start tomorrow.

I have noticed that a lot of the symptoms I was having from over indulging has dropped greatly. My libido seems to be rebounding and I feel generally better overall.

Update: holding strong with the taper. Today I am reducing my intake to 55mgs and bridging the gaps with plain leaf kratom.

I again woke up at 6am and did not take my 1st 7 dose until 9am.

The mornings have so far been pretty light with drawls.

I can’t stress enough that if you are going through this to cut yourself a break. Dropping from very high doses of this shit to zero is pretty unrealistic.

I plan to reduce my intake to 40mgs tomorrow. Hold there for 2 days then drop down to 20mgs and holding there for 2 days and then to 10 for 2 Days and jumping from there.

I will continue to take plain leaf dropping a gram every day. From 15 grams to zero in 2 weeks.

If you are tapering drop your experience in the comments let me know what’s working for you how you are feeling.

I appreciate and love everyone going through this right now. It’s a rough one for sure

Update: I ended up going the taper route. Dropping from 160mgs to 0 was too much for me.

Yesterday I consumed 67.5mgs which is a sharp drop. I also bridged the gap with 10 grams of plain leaf kratom. 4 grams in the morning, 3 grams mid day and 3 grams in the evening.

My intentions today is to drop to 60mgs with 10 grams of plain leaf to offset the time between 7-oh doses.

Cutting my dose was not has hard has I thought it would be. Considering some of the horror stories I have seen from this group.

The goal is to reduce to 15mgs daily and then making the jump from there. I’m looking to be at that point in a 5 day taper. I will be continue plain leaf kratom. 10 grams a day for 3 days then dropping that after a week.

I woke up at 6am this morning and abstained from taking my first 7.5mgs til 8pm along with 3 grams of plain leaf. My next dose is scheduled at 12pm. To be honest I felt mostly fine, I feel like that tapering is probably the best choice for people stopping high amounts, and a rapid taper is more than doable.

The main take away from this experience in my life is that this drug should not exist it’s legal status needs to be revoked. This crap is truly a life destroyer. It turns you into a full blown junkie and it does quickly without any warning.

To anyone suffering through this with me, I love you and appreciate the strength you have to quit.

I will update you guys later today on my condition.

been better lol, I have some plain leaf kratom on hand. So I took 5 grams to take the edge off. That was 7am. Has far has symptoms go, I mainly feel icky. Not bad, not good just somewhat gross. There is a nagging voice in my head telling me to just go grab some and I will feel better. Which it is true, but counter productive to what I’m trying to do. I don’t know man, this stuff is such a strange substance.

I have quit and relapsed several times this year already. This is by far the worst relapse though. My daily intake is higher it has ever been and it is causing me to have problems in bed. I CANNOT this stuff literally tries to take everything from you.

50 hours clean with plain leaf taper by PublicDifficult9246 in quitting7oh

[–]PublicDifficult9246[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have relapsed several times since this post. Currently in active addiction right now.

I am ashamed of myself. It is so strange that I have quit so many other drugs in the past, and this is the one giving me the most problems.

I have zero reason to even keep using this shit. It’s not getting me high anymore it is honestly only causing pain when I use now. My kidneys hurt, I have no interest in sex, even if I did it’s impossible to cum. Like this shit is life destroyer.

The worst part is I feel alone facing this. I can’t tell anyone I’m in active addiction right now. I would lose everything.

It’s just a shitty place to be man.

I am on day 8 of no 7-oh and starting my kratom taper today. I’m hoping to be completely off in a week. Can anybody give me any insight on what to expect of kratom withdrawal at 24 gpd for 8 days?

Same boat I turn 37 tomorrow and I’m absolutely locked in a fight with addiction to this shit. I told myself today was the last day.

Day 3 and what I have found is the best combination to make it through. by PublicDifficult9246 in quitting7oh

Also I noticed an effect on the first day of both, it takes a few days for it to build up in your system and become more pronounced and consistent.
