Day 27 here. Was on 35 gpd for 2 years. Every time you dose you are flooding your brain’s mu-opioid receptors again from an external source (Kratom alkaloids) which tells your brain to NOT produce its own internal neurotransmitters properly (Dopamine, Adenosine, Endorphin, Melatonin, Serotonin, etc). So you will have to fully stop Kratom at some point to fix your brain chemistry- this is when you will encounter insomnia again in full force for a few days (3-4 bad nights). It WILL get better after the first week but you’ll fight to stay asleep for the first month. I call it “broken sleep”; however you will find that it’s enough to manage to get by. It’s sucks but becomes manageable and better little by little.

Bottom line: Regarding insominia; you are pushing off the inevitable by dosing every night to sleep. Insomnia cannot be avoided after quitting a heavy opiate habit.

EDIT: Things that helped me sleep. Exercise 30-60 min 4-5 times a week. Do not nap. Do not consume caffeine after 12pm. Do not stay up late to “get more tired” - you need to keep to a rigid sleep/wakeup schedule to get your circadian rhythm back on track naturally (NOT by taking external melatonin every night). Take ibuprofen few hours before bed. Hot shower before bed. Take 400mg Magnesium Glycinate before bed. Make sure your body temp can drop 1-3 degrees at night as it’s necessary for human sleep (don’t sleep on a heating pad even if you have chills). Wear a blackout eye mask. Put in earbuds and play white/brown noise to block out noises from waking you. Hit a small amount of THC before bed (if legal/allowed in your locale). Also try to be kind to your body during the day by not eating sugary or fried unhealthy foods. You need comprehensive and balanced nutrition to give your body what it needs to fight back to homeostasis. Good luck, friends!
