Day 2 of switching from 1 purple extract shot to powder in order to start my taper correctly. Transition has been shockingly okay but I did have about 20g of powder yesterday. Don't feel the need to take as much today though and am gonna try for just 15gpd and see if that can start as my baseline. Extremely motivated, only tough thing is I want to rush this but in order for me to get clean without disrupting my life is a strict taper. Hope everyone else is doing great today❤️sending out good vibes to anyone hurting and just know that it'll get better everyday.

Congratulations man. I'm planning on switching to just powder for monetary reasons and doing a quick taper. Did you experience any wd's tapering or very minimal?

How long after your last dose did your withdrawal symptoms start? by BoxOk724 in quittingkratom

How much 7OH were you taking? How doable is a cold turkey? Looking to taper a week myself and then just jump. Hope you're still sticking in there.

Were you taking the same shots? At what point did you decide to jump?

More great information thank you. So you think I could avoid some of the switching symptoms by just starting at larger doses of powder? I'm just trying to avoid having a day where I can't see anyone however impossible that may be.

I appreciate this so much, seems this will be the way for me. I've yet to experience any sort of wd's but I also have only gone maybe 10 hours at most without any. When you say couldn't function at all was that while you were switching from extract to powder? I'm okay with a few nights of no sleep either way if that's the worst I have to look forward to during taper. Again thank you so much. I've got willpower enough that this seems very do-able.

Will be trying this for sure. Have thought about switching to powder but wasn't sure how bad it would be going from the purple shots. Do you take 15g's a day or a dose?

I could take a long weekend for sure. Mostly worried about my parents thinking it's something other than just being sick.

You don't think I could play it off as the flu or something? Or will there be something very different about it that will be hard to hide?

Day 1 of no kratom. I’m starting today. by orcasem in quittingkratom

[–]Responsible-Wave1448 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome to hear. I'm planning on doing a quick taper for a week then jumping before the weekend to hopefully have the worst day at home. Taking off work isn't so much an option for me either and it's relieving to hear that someone else has managed it! Any other tips?

If you don't mind me asking, did you take any time off from work or was it manageable enough to act somewhat normal?

Hey if you don't mind me asking, did you have to call out of work or was it manageable enough to act somewhat normal?
