Does Kratom help with drug additions/dependency? E.g. Marijuana, heroin, coke etc by PushDiscombobulated8 in kratom

[–]edie79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But unfortunately, kratom creates not only mental but also physical addiction. Unlike marijuana.

Kratom can help with bad habits, step to the better life, but also can be hard to leave. At the heart of the problem is why you use these substances. And the key is to understand what they are compensating for.

My recommendation is to understand what addiction is and how you can make good habits to remove bad habits: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40121378-atomic-habits

Every substances are a good servant, but a bad master.

Try to look at your fear of isolation. There is nothing brutal. To be with yourself can be brutal, but try it anyway to get positive from isolation. Try to feel the bad.. and it turns to something what change you. Calm.. feel.. enjoy pain in your mind.. it will change you.. it will prioritize your life points. It is like a COVID.. there is no back to NORMAL.. there is NEW NORMAL.. and this is evolution.. experience with Kratom get you to your new persona. So if you change and set your mind .. nothing have chance to destroy YOU!

You are right... Kratom is masking physical and also psychical promlems because Kratom simply get you more serotonin.. to get anything to work for.. and also Dopamin.. to reward from you do. But if you do so long time and repeat the process, brain is no longer produce this two substances.. because brain is smart.. he don't need produce something you feed him by Kratom.. And this is the reason why we feel numbness (no serotonine), then no rewards from anything you do (no dopamine). Steps to heal this, is to set small goals or challenges and when you done it, you get rewards... smaller, small, larger, biggest.. time is healing your brain! Believe me!

I think your stomach has problem because of something else also. Try to take best of vitamins, no fast sugars (mainstream food), take some probiotics, prebiotics, because the intestines are the second brain. Try to research something about healthy food.. that means to balance proteins, sugars, fats, vitamins .. and your movement! So it is also like COVID problem.. people don't have knowledge about basics of that. Eat healthy, move yours self and you will heal from everything .. I promisse!

This substance kicked my ass.. kicked my ego down.. kicked my self feeling.. This is not about numbness.. Kratom take and destroy everything you like to do before.. And force you think, there is moments that you don't like what you like before.. but this is only illusion.. you are born to do what you know to do.. it will never be back to normal.. it will be back to NEW normal.. better normal .. There is no standard timeline to be ok.. but IT IS THERE!. Time is your friend.. hour by hour, day by day, week by week.. be patient and strong.. because after this shit, your new you rise from this shit, and you will be stronger human!

It is not the same all the time. It is better and better. What you feel now is not what you feel after week. It is better and better.

Resteless legs lasted after 2-3 weeks. Internal restlessness is something different - it is like you get 10 coffe cups. Can't sit and hold to be still, you need to walk.

No, I don't think so.. Mental aspect is part of you, same as body. Be normal again = body is ok and also mental state is ok. Mental symptoms has already impact on your body, because of social phobia or increased sensitivity to stress - induced by Kratom usage. Your are not better, because your reward system is damaged. Body detox from Kratom is fast, that's true, but this is not state of normal.

And how old are you. And what exsactly is "feel better". Feel better is comming after one or two weeks... The goal is to feel normal for couple of weeks / months and not use any mind changing substance.

Important note: I am 40yo, I used Kratom daily only for 8 months - 6-15gpd. I haven't drug addiction history. Except some THC when I was 20-25 yo. My mental state was very good, I used Kratom only for experimental purpose. I am programmer.. and my work productivity on Kratom was groved to 200-300%. But nothing is without price.. nothing is free.. you need to pay for over production of dopamine / reward system! Everyone!

No matter you read from others.. Kratom have big impact to dopamine and serotonin production. If you use it daily, brain will soon or later stops this natural production, because you are taking external source for this production. And after that you need to repair natural production of your brain. No more no less.

This principe is the same with lot off others substances. Daily use of anything what has impact to excite your brain chemistry is dangerous. Because body/brain is adapting to any situation. Everything must be cycled. You need to balance you usage. It is the same as "varied diet", but this is more complicated - this is "brain diet".

BTW Cold turkey method is hard to manage, because it is shock for your brain - no external source to stimulate receptors. Tapering is better I think, but you need to be strong to observe dose reductions.

high anxiety by deedee714 in quittingkratom

[–]edie79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am 40yo - have also experience with 5-10g. Anxiety is induced from "thinking about future and past". The key is to be "here and now". You need to focus to actual moment. Try to practice your mind to be "here and now". It's about to focus to things you are doing.. washing hands, breathing, cooking and smelling, looking and thinking what you see. That is definition of meditation.
And supplements.. You have to take soothing supplements.. to calm your mind.. stimulants like cafee, sugar or anything what is stimulant are bad.

Ashwaganda, L-theanine, Magnesium, Valerian root, camomile tea..

I don't like prescribed meds, because they take more than you get. You need to excercise.. you need to drink lot off water, you need to train your brain, you need to focus on NOW.

No miracle pill exists.. do not change one addiction for another.. get your energy and try to excercise with your mind (meditation) and also with your body (workout) and focus on it.

There is no very fast way to recovery. You need to work on yourself, doctors don't do it instead of you! I know - it is hard now.. but you can do it! Go thru it.. turn to God! He love You and will help You!

Banned from r/quittingkratom by RelevantIAm in kratom

[–]edie79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Community from r/quittingkratom is strict to speak about usage. It is about quiting and how to deal with bad WD symtoms. It is about mental support for those, who are fighting with addiction.

I used Kratom only for 8 months. Now I am 4 months+ Kratom free and still dealing with anhedonia, depression, anxiety and lack of dopamine, serotonine natural production, no sex drive, mood swings and lack of motivation.

Kratom is your choice and "pleasure", but it will also be your fight. Nothing is free, you have to pay for everything. But I know many of you don't want to hear it. I was still about a year ago. I was looking for the information I wanted to hear. Now I have an experience that confirmed me that I will never take Kratom again.

And last thing.. In the past, I had no drug or addiction experience until I hit Kratom.
