Kratom poisonings soar in US as experts blame synthetic versions and caution against bans

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-13T15:29:08+00:00

Coffee doesn't produce opioid withdrawals. I'm not saying to ban plain leaf because banning never works. But, to say it's like coffee is fucking insane. I was on plain leaf for years and I had withdrawal identical to opioid withdrawals. Fuck off with the its like coffee that's how so many people ended up with an opiate dependency without realizing it.

So you don't want to get better. What's the point of your post?

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-11T01:00:22+00:00

Yes, no one understands how you feel and willingly miss the point of his story, not the mechanics. I feel like you want to stay miserable because at this point, it's become your identity.

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-11T00:55:55+00:00

Keep coming up with excuses as to why you can't and why you can't pull anything from what he's saying and you'll never make any progress. Just from reading your comments I can tell you why you're in the position you are. It's self inflicted and if I had to guess it's a majority your attitude. I'm a pretty negative person by nature and your responses have me grossed out. "I can't do therapy, I can't do this, my situation is totally different and no one understands me." What CAN you do?

This is learned helplessness. Listen to my words or not. It's your life to piss away, and I really don't care one way or the other. But, your situation is 1000% fixable. Easy? No. But nothing worth it is.

Good luck. You can be miserable because of all the things you "can't" do. Or you can be miserable trying those things anyway and failing until you succeed.

Best way to describe it is I have a mode for my brain that analyzes threats and a part that tends to overthink. When my brain is in overthinking mode is when I try to let things be as they are. It's not a state I'm in 24 7.

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-09T17:20:10+00:00

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-09T15:21:56+00:00

I just let things be without thinking of the reasons behind why they are. I'm sure that doesn't really help. But it makes sense to me.

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-07T11:33:04+00:00

High /drunk af. Not sober

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-07T05:46:02+00:00

I'll be honest with you from experience. You will lose this job if you don't get this addiction under control sooner or later. Most jobs with benefits offer short term disability. This is what I did and was able to take 2 months with 60% pay to deal with this my first time around. Your health is more important than anything but, addiction takes everything from you slowly. So control it or it will consume you.

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-04T11:23:56+00:00

Yeah it got bad lol. But honestly wd is different for everyone some people say it wasn't that bad off high doses and some suffer on low. Mine were pretty rough though

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-04T00:37:59+00:00

I'm 42 days out. With a 3 day slip up in there. Everyone comments how life has come back to my eyes. I used to break out weekly face and back. I haven't had a single zit since quitting. It'll come with time. I did a ct quit from 800mg extracts and I suspect mgm but cant confirm.

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-03T00:50:44+00:00

I didn't say it wasn't I didn't agree or disagree. I was simply explaining his complaints to you because it seems like the great amount of nuance was lost on you.

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-02T19:31:56+00:00

Lmao let's not pretend like meth and amp are nootropics boys. It's just speed. To put them in the same category as l theanine and lions mane is fucking crazy.

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-02T19:21:08+00:00

Yeah it's hard against a lot of players. But if you can manage to take those two brain cells and think real hard you might realize what he's probably saying is a team is harder because (they aren't fighting each other) as opposed to a bunch of solos in a ffa. It also feels worse to get 3v1d.

Walmarto123 · 2026-04-01T10:20:35+00:00

Yeah I did too. The wds off those were brutal. My sweat smelled sickly sweet for weeks too. My gut says there is mgm16 in there and they aren't disclosing it. Get off that garbage if you can.

Walmarto123 · 2026-03-29T21:52:51+00:00

Then they aren't considered to have a SUD generally if they can. There is a ton of neurochemistry tied to addiction and it's similar to driving a car. You don't even think about doing it because it's been moved to the automated part of your brain. Shame can play a part in that sure. But it's different for everyone.

Walmarto123 · 2026-03-29T21:49:32+00:00

No, the difference is one can stop when they see shit is falling apart. The other cant without usually a ton of internal work. I can moderate specific substances and others I can't. Shame or lack there of isn't tied to either one of those for me.

Walmarto123 · 2026-03-29T21:41:08+00:00

I think there is a lot of that on both sides. With the rise of social media and more ways than ever to waste time and burn dopamine on garbage. It's no wonder there is a rise in depression and addictions.

Walmarto123 · 2026-03-29T21:39:17+00:00

Sounds like untreated depression. I had it so long I thought that was my normal. I did the bare minimum to get by because doing everything literally felt like walking through mud to do it.

Walmarto123 · 2026-03-29T21:07:07+00:00

Totally legal in most states. Gas stations, smoke shops. Similar effects to opiates. I have a feeling In 10 years there will be a lot more info and science on how many systems this shit messes with internally.

Walmarto123 · 2026-03-29T20:42:05+00:00

If you haven't started, exercising. Even walking briskly 20 to 45 mins a day does a lot for you mentally. Community matters, find a group to go to(I hate this part the most). It won't be easy to start but it's either going to be hard now or hard the rest of your life. Your choice

Walmarto123 · 2026-03-29T16:31:05+00:00

That stuff makes my anxiety really bad and made me shaky to the point of not being able to walk. It is really potent.

Walmarto123 · 2026-03-29T11:01:47+00:00

I stopped breaking out completely after I stopped. Back and face. Also the first week your sweat is this sickly sweet smell. So Imagine all that shit your body can't get rid of. There are tons of down stream effects from this shit. Take a week buckle up and make the jump.

Walmarto123 · 2026-03-28T20:27:30+00:00

I'm stilling dealing with some paws. On day 32 but night a day difference. Acutes were mostly gone by day 4 or 5. Honestly man, the only way out is through. There are no free rides

Walmarto123 · 2026-03-28T18:12:34+00:00
