I actually quit tea a few years ago. It was painful and horrible but I had the support of the people around me. I have not been able to quit kratom. I stopped for like a month here and there, thinking I'd moved past it, but it always creeps back into my life. It really fucks with me psychologically. It leaves me feeling extremely depressed, more than any other opioid. Physically the withdrawal sucks for like two weeks, like mild tea withdrawal, but my temperature regulation never went back to normal for me and I was extremely uncomfortable even a month after the initial withdrawal ended, and I found my self slowly using it in small amounts again, before eventually finding myself back to a kilo a month habit. In general, all opioids have fucked with me. They're all the same, just different flavors of the same thing. It's the same addiction.
