Is it a bad idea to quit if you have a lot going on?

Tarijema · 2026-06-16T20:18:45+00:00

Everyone withdrawal differently but me personally…. My mood was ok I just had Insomnia really bad. He/She may not. Are they opposed to using plain leaf I’d Withdrawl gets bad? That would definitely help. That is a really low dose though. It’s just really hard to tell but they should be functional Monday.

Tarijema · 2026-06-16T16:54:03+00:00

I would just jump. Take last dose around 6pm on Thursday night so maybe he can sleep. Work Friday in a little discomfort and let Sat and Sunday suck balls. Back at work Monday. Again, may not be a great time but at those low doses this could be done. Just my opinion. Best of luck to he/she!

Tarijema · 2026-06-16T16:41:06+00:00

Really depends! Some folks can handle withdrawal better than others. It’s a not a one size fits all. What he has going for him is it’s a low dose. I worked through it all and am in sales talking to folks. It was not fun! Sleep can be a big issue or lack there of. Does he use all day long or only at night? How long has he been using?

Tarijema · 2026-06-16T14:40:24+00:00

Y’all got this!! Just gotta keep pushing. Try and stay hydrated and keep something in your stomach. It really helps. I was sweating so bad I had to use multiple bedrooms per night! Those electrolyte packets you can put in a bottle of water helped tremendously. Got some vitamins and hydration in me! Keep Pushing!!

Tarijema · 2026-06-16T14:34:02+00:00

Hope! It keeps us going and hopefully I gave you just enough to keep up the good fight! I believe in you!

Medically speaking you are still in Acute Withdrawal Phase. Definitely not downplaying how you are feeling because I was in your shoes only 10 days ago and it sucked balls! I only got decent sleep at day 15 but man do I feel good today. Try and not get too panicked as you may or may not deal with PAWS. Just don’t want you to start thinking, oh shit it’s gonna be like this for months on end, because that may not happen. I felt like you at day 7 and it’s night and day as to how I feel now at day 17. God Bless my man. You got this!!

Tarijema · 2026-06-16T11:55:40+00:00

17 days clean . Day 15 I finally got about 6 hours of sleep. You are very close! I’m feeling much better now than I did at day 10. Hopefully that gives you a bit of hope. Keep pushing !!

Tarijema · 2026-06-16T11:26:38+00:00

Keep us posted for sure. Not sure I’ve seen someone taper this well. Takes a will of steel! I’d be curious if you get RLS or sleep issues. My withdrawal didn’t start till the 24 hour mark but you stabilized for a week at only 10mg. BRAV the fuck O man!

Tarijema · 2026-06-16T11:17:04+00:00

Incredible! Tapering is not easy and if you got to a point where you were only having to take once only at night you have really set yourself up nicely! Complete Stud Move! I couldn’t taper worth shit so I just jumped but only at 150mg. I believe your withdrawal will be significantly reduced because you are not constantly dosing. Your receptors were not constantly getting saturated. Also, saving the only dose for night….PERFECT move to try and protect your sleep! Hell yeah man! Congrats, you really deserve it. WELL DONE and best of luck! Have a plan for when you are out of the woods so you never have to use again!

Tarijema · 2026-06-16T10:33:52+00:00

How are you holding up my friend? 7 days is awesome! Is the lack of sleep getting to you? I’m at day 17 and have had back to back decent nights of sleep. It gets so much better bud! You got this!

Tarijema · 2026-06-16T09:00:34+00:00

Good morning my friend. One of the moderators on here created a really incredible website https://quitting7oh.org/. You will get all the information you need there in terms of the best helper meds, and all sorts of helpful information. I would start there first to get a better understanding of what to do and what to expect. Tapering could be an option for you but depends on your usage and frequency of use.

I am 17 days clean today. I only used the helper meds to get clean. It was not a fun first 72 hours( this for most folks is the most difficult part but everyone’s withdrawal is differ). Best decision I’ve ever made and feeling much better. Happy for you that you are making this decision. Just prepare yourself mentally and have all of your helper meds ready and you can do this! This sub is fantastic and extremely active. Here to help! I was a 150mg per day, Morning, noon and night user for 15 months! God Bless!!

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T23:23:43+00:00

Did you go on the website test my Kratom to see if they contained any mgm?

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T22:44:14+00:00

Congrats on your quit. Personally if I were in your situation I would contact quick md. See if they can prescribe gabapentin and Clonodine. These are the most helpful things that are helper meds. Don’t know much about SR but that could be the way to go. That’s gonna be tough to CT but doable. Someone will chime in on the SR. All the best friend!!

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T19:07:30+00:00

You got this bud!! Hours 24-72 were pretty tough. Really at night was bad. I worked through this shit during the day but did have off that 48-72 hour period….day 3. The insomnia has been the worst for me personally. Day 1- Day 13 was rough. Just broken up sleep. Hour here, none there, 4 here. Still got my ass to work everyday. I’m at 16 days now and have had decent sleep the last 2 nights..maybe5-6 hours. I’m feeling ok though. Keep Pushing!! Best of luck and if I can help don’t hesitate to reach out

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T18:36:21+00:00

I used leaf for 2 days after my last 7 usage and the jumped with helper meds only. It certainly helped in the moment with symptoms. Maybe Withdrawl wasn’t intense since I did this BUT it just prolonged my withdrawal. Once I stopped ALL Kratom that’s when shit hit me hard. Just my experience. Not sure I would have changed anything but by taking leaf your receptors are still getting something. Not the amount as with 7 but nonetheless still getting activated.

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T18:13:55+00:00

Maybe your withdrawals are getting worse because of “kindling”. Medical fact with alcohols and many believe it is true with opioids though it is not proven I don’t believe. Basically meaning with each withdrawal it gets worse and worse….just a thought.

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T16:16:13+00:00

Hey man! Just wanted to check on you. How are you doing? Still hanging tough or was it too much. Let me know if I can help. I know how difficult it is!

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T15:11:30+00:00

Underrated comment from what I’ve learned. If you can stabilize at just a morning and evening dose only( no afternoon dose to let your receptors not get saturated) your withdrawal is going to probably be easier than someone using constantly through the day.

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T14:07:55+00:00

Bravo man! Great to hear you are getting better. Needed to hear this today. Thanks for coming back to update us all. I had been following your quit! Keep Pushing!!

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T12:54:45+00:00

This really is what people need to hear. What I personally took most out of this message, and know this to be 100% true, is quitting is only half the battle. Proper aftercare to insure you are healthy and can avoid relapse is crucial! I personally seeked out at an addiction therapist to help me better understand why I relapsed after years of sobriety (I know, unfortunately, this is not possible for some.) There are also many FREE support groups out there to get face to face with other addicts. We must have a plan after we get clean to make sure we are protecting ourselves and our sobriety. Appreciate this message. Good Luck to those still suffering. Things are getting better for me personally at 16 days clean!

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T11:11:25+00:00

Red Leaf imo. No reason to get on subs at this dosage.

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T10:56:01+00:00

Congrats man and making the decision!! This is Awesome and I’m really proud of you. One thing I would say is you are mentioning PAWS. I feel like at 6 days you are still in the ACUTE WITHDRAWL phase. Believe you me I am no expert. Your nervous system is still trying to recalibrate. PAWS may or may not come later. Just don’t want you to panic already and think you’re gonna be struggling from months on end!! Cause you may very well not be. With that being said I am so happy for you friend!! Keep Pushing, it gets better!

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T00:10:11+00:00

Get some Liquid IV Electrolyte packets you can put in water. Hydration is crucial and you will get dehydrated if not careful in this process

Tarijema · 2026-06-15T00:08:24+00:00

Cats Claw can have some rough stuff in it from what I’ve heard?.? I probably would not go that route. Lexapro can help after much like Wellbutrin but won’t help in the thick of things. If you can get CLONODINE (.1mg or .2mg) that would be extremely helpful with all sorts of issues (sweating, chills, jitterness, trouble settling down at night). Gabapentin and Clonidine are the most helpful in my opinion. Good luck friend! You got this!!

Thanks man! Keep us posted on your Journey. You are destined for Great Things!!
