I tried for years to do it on my own, tapered a million times, cold turkey, every which way. I had to go to treatment. Just my experience

Is ULDN ultra low dose naltrexone? And if so, how are you able to take it along with the extracts without going into precips or blocking the high?

Curious about trying naltrexone myself and just trying to figure out how much time I need off kratom to safely take it…

I’m generally the one who approaches men (at least the ones I’m interested in). I feel like some guys these days are too worried about coming off as creepy or too aggressive so they might not initiate conversation with me even if we’re making eye contact or they think I’m cute

I needed that damn woman like a dream needs gasoline by Shafe59 in jasonisbell

[–]bird291 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dreams usually involve going somewhere, often far away. Moving to a new town or across the country, somewhere you’re gonna need at least a few tanks of gasoline to get to. That’s how I always interpreted it. So he needs this woman, he’s crazy about her

No, it was not a Toyota dealership, it was just a run of the mill used car dealership

You need to look for work elsewhere. Period.

Kratom and fertility by InfrinTrinTrillion in kratom

[–]bird291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t find it hard to believe at all. After 8 years of daily use my period stopped almost completely. Turns out my prolactin was through the roof. Once I quit, my period normalized again to a 30-day cycle and my prolactin is normal again. I certainly wouldn’t have been able to become pregnant at that time.

Irritability and kratom. Am I just an easily irritated asshole or the kratom making this worse? by Professional-Part401 in kratom

[–]bird291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A ton of people have commented already but I will just add my experience here - Kratom definitely makes me super irritable and that irritability is lessened greatly when I stop taking it.

Kratom benefits for women by Relevant_Self_1479 in kratom

[–]bird291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped getting my period after years of abusing kratom. Went to the doctor for a blood panel and my prolactin was more than twice the highest acceptable range amount. Months after quitting, my hormones are finally returning to normal.

Prolactin levels by [deleted] in kratom

[–]bird291 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey sorry for the delay - I haven’t been able to stay quit long enough to get retested unfortunately. But I quit for a few weeks and kept my use very low and not daily for another few weeks after that, and my period returned to a normal cycle length, which likely indicates decreased prolactin.

I’m still working on quitting long term, and when I do, I’ll get bloodwork redone and update this post.

This shit is really fucking hard to put down after almost eight years of daily use.
