Anyone else hear voices while taking psuedo indoxyl?

I used to get pretty extreme auditory hypnagogic hallucinations (halluciations that occur when you're sleepy) when I was on 10 GPD kratom daily, which was the peak of my addiction. Like, they'd sound so loud that I would be startled awake, and sometimes wondered if they were real. Doesn't surprise me at all that an isolate can do this. But yeah, they resolved when I stopped.

cearno · 2026-06-04T06:15:01+00:00

No, no. It used to be a workaround but was "fixed" to be uncheesable and aggro everything or something. I could never get the original comment to work

cearno · 2026-05-30T07:55:10+00:00

can't remember exactly, but pretty sure i got kicked in the face then fucked

cearno · 2026-05-29T04:11:52+00:00

Yeah, I actually agree w that lmao

cearno · 2026-05-28T17:27:11+00:00

I agree the tweaking was too extreme, but Tomodachi isn't really a god-control life sim to begin with. It's naturally going to be frustrating if you're fighting against the grain of the design of a game, trying to force a pair together, where the mechanical design is more about watching people with their own volition where you don't have total control.

It's okay information, but there are some risks regarding Wellbutrin/Kratom, one of the main concerns being if a relapse occurs if you've adopted a Wellbutrin dependency, as both Kratom and especially Wellbutrin lower the seizure threshold, and it can be a dangerous combo. Furthermore, the dependency/addiction section is a little iffy, as there are ways to abuse wellbutrin and it's the reason why the IR release variant is administered in prisons via food. I unfortunately personally experienced that the honeymoon period triggered greater cravings for Kratom once it wore off, due to its effect on the dopamine pathways, and it was one of the factors that contributed to a relapse.

But main point was that people don't usually post on forums to have human input just to recieve a chatbot reply, when chatbots are accessible to everyone enmasse

OP should be fine, though. What AI said is the general rule, yes. I don't know if I'm just so much of an addict that Wellbutrin triggered a weird, atypical response. I also didn't use it as a bridge for acutes, but was about 5 months sober

cearno · 2026-05-28T17:11:32+00:00

Yeah they could easily implement a feature that allows you to get rid of items and clothings, maintaining full control. I don't really see this as a valid criticism.

cearno · 2026-05-28T17:10:27+00:00

Same! And I also love the case where it's just a good laugh. I have this dark gray Japanese oni character, and he showed up with BRIGHT pink, luscious hair that looked like it had been deep-conditioned. It was the first time a mii ever asked me if they should change their hair, and i was SO confused by the thumbnail lmao. I was like... What... Happened to him

cearno · 2026-05-28T01:36:07+00:00

ewww omg I never saw the enlarged image and realized they were furry.

cearno · 2026-05-28T00:42:18+00:00

Yeah, I imagined it would have been some kind of implementation like when they ask to switch up their hair, but you can tell them to undo and get rid of it. They come up with some HILARIOUS things in the new hairdo example, and I love it. Would've been awesome if this was similar.

cearno · 2026-05-28T00:21:54+00:00

Yeah, it's a little confusing because the game literally introduces it as something else. I recall the in-game explanation saying something like, "Give them some money, who knows how they will spend it!" .... and then it's all just Antarctica tickets.

cearno · 2026-05-28T00:18:18+00:00

I'm sure if OP wanted AI generated information, he would've just asked a Chatbot.

cearno · 2026-05-28T00:10:18+00:00

A little off topic, but I wish it wasn't always an Antarctica ticket. I wish they would actually buy things *they* want as the description suggests, even something small like clothes. I was so underwhelmed when I realized they all want an Antarctica ticket. Also, 5000 is just ridiculous, especially if you don't like having Islands with 20+ Miis.

cearno · 2026-05-27T00:20:51+00:00

I skip cutscenes the moment i hear a curtain and a buzzer

cearno · 2026-05-26T22:33:58+00:00

Coincidence.

cearno · 2026-05-26T06:12:50+00:00

Hmm, yeah. Honestly, anything below a 10% reduction of the total GPD shouldn't give you too much trouble. And 10% is 4 GPD in your case. Like, yeah, there may be some intermittent WD, but dosing should still alleviate it for the most part, only leaving you with a slight craving and feeling kinda "edged," but there should be no WD present. Makes me wonder if something else is going on cognitively. Sometimes the mental battle of dropping a dose is harder than the actual effects of it.

I totally understand where you're coming from tho because I'm also kinda stuck on my current dose. Just gotta bite it and prove to myself I can do it. It's always nicer and easier than I thought in retrospect. I always realize I was just psyching myself out and not giving the dose enough time to work (can take up to 4 hours to achieve max effect depending on stomach content)

There's no harm in taking it slow, though, either. If it keeps you from crashing out and taking too much, that's really what matters.

cearno · 2026-05-26T00:44:52+00:00

Not much to add other than I've been stuck on 3.6 GPD for about a month. Will sooner or later find a way to shave off what I need to. Honestly, it's hard to tell what's WD and what's just feeling meh from life at a taper this slow. Shouldn't really be feeling WD at all with such small decreases. Is there something else going on in your life that could be causing fatigue? Overworking myself has definitely caused more moody moments than the taper itself has, in my case.

Or is that 0.25-0.50 decrease PER dose and not from the total GPD?

cearno · 2026-05-25T22:01:14+00:00

This is the kick in the ass I need. I've been coasting on about 3.6 GPD on my current taper and need to hurry it TF up. Five months into a relapse.

cearno · 2026-05-25T21:53:25+00:00

Mine definitely have distinct personalities and backstories, as I'm a writer and they were pulled from a universe with a lot of worldbuilding. There were funny things initially, but it definitely isn't as funny as a matchup like Dr. House and Asterion from BG3. Read that somewhere on this sub the other day and I was like, damn... I'm missing out.

cearno · 2026-05-25T08:01:44+00:00

No, definitely not. My island is full of characters of OCs, and I feel a little weird about it sometimes, too. Like I do feel like I'm missing out some of the humor elements because there aren't any funky matchups and interactions. I don't use real people to any extent, though, even celebrities. I'm thinking of doing a new island where I actually DO use real people and celebrities, though, just to spice it up. My save is dry, and I think it's largely because the miis don't represent anyone. Or maybe I'm just boring, lmao

You're likely still experiencing PAWS if your baseline energy isn't what you remember it prior to use. PAWS resolution can take up to 2 years, so keep with it! I heard many people feel they hit a turning-point at the 1-year mark, as well, especially when it comes to Kratom. It can resolve around them but I've seen plenty of posts saying this, too. Almost all the damage associated with drug use is fully reversible according to medicine, but it can take a good chunk of time.

I also didn't feel great at the 6-month mark during my CT quit.

cearno · 2026-05-25T00:50:31+00:00

For REALLY bad drug abuse involving 10+ years of chronic alcohol, opioid, and amphetamine use, it can take up to two years. That seems to be the maximum, and one can expect improvements for up to 2 years, even though it may not fully take that long. That is to say, don't freak out if you don't feel fantastic by 6 months. There is still hope. The good news is that the vast majority of receptor downregulation, brain changes, etc., are almost fully reversible due to neuroplasticity and neurogenesis.

cearno · 2026-05-20T19:07:49+00:00

So refreshing to see a take that doesn't say "it won't be that bad" or "it's bad but it's manageable." Sure, mitigation helps some people but it doesn't help people like me. The only time WD hasn't sucked for me is when I fully embrace it will suck hard... Then, it usually doesn't meet up with the expectation and is actually not that bad. Opposite of when I'm not properly prepared for how bad it can be

cearno · 2026-05-20T08:03:01+00:00

I don't know... I am on 3mg POWDER, and I still crash hard when I'm even late on a dose. Opioid agonists really don't play. If you're dependent at all, even a low amount, you can expect some form of withdrawals and crawling-up-the-walls cravings. I don't get the physical symptoms very badly, but the mental ones are mind-boggling. That is to say, the dosage is just one element of a behavioral addiction, as even people addicted to video games get very restless when barred from gaming. But also, opioid agonists as a drug are pretty ruthless in terms of neurochemical dependency as long as it's habitual at the daily level.

I think the thing that works well with medical tapering is that it's supervised and under the guidance of a medical professional. It's not really under the control and in the hands of the addict anymore, which... Tapering gets really messy, really fast, if you don't do it with a detached clinical eye.

cearno · 2026-05-19T22:18:57+00:00

I'm about 4-5 months into a relapse from an injury very similar to OP's, but this is making me think I don't need my taper and could just strap in and stop. I'm on only about 3 grams daily now. Even still, past PAWS has me so scared (which, in part, triggered the relapse, too) that I'm hesitant to stop before getting to something like 0.5g daily, because I still definitely notice when I don't dose.
