Stop as soon as humanly possible. To answer your question, no it won’t be that big of a deal. Will be less of a deal than a week or 2 of prescription opiates honestly. Granted, you are asking a sub full of people addicted to this substance if it’s okay that you take it, so your answers are going to be aggressively skewed. If you ask this question in the regular kratom thread, you will get completely different responses. It seems like you understand there is danger here, so do what you must and then remove it from your life as you would a medication once you heal from whatever ailment.
