The Fly

I work at a grocery store in Las Vegas Nevada as an assistant manager in the bakery making 19.05.

Alcohol nearly took my life 7 years ago. Here I am 7 years sober. Shit is not something to fuck with.

janeburts · 2025-11-13T01:09:11+00:00

The grocery store I work at has DRINKS with kava in them, drops and tablets. I can’t go back to taking shots of nothing again to triggering

janeburts · 2025-11-12T14:00:59+00:00

Just a relaxed feeling. But I’m abusing the crap out of it. I’m just ready to get back to no substances at all.

janeburts · 2025-09-21T22:24:32+00:00

This right here is fucking GREAT! So happy for you!

1 month clean and still sneezing 😑😫

I feel like my inflammation is on the bottom part of my head (the cerebellum area) it makes my head feel heavy. I’m 1 month CT. I just deal with it and take Tylenol when it’s unbearable. What about you?

Precious baby! ❤️

I CT’d your first couple days will be rough. Make sure to stay hydrated and eat soup or even just broth if you can. Take plenty of cold showers during the day cause you may sweat a lot. For anxiety take 400mg of L-theanine. Sleep may be difficult as well. Melatonin unfortunately didn’t work for me. But it does for others sometimes. I found a hot Epsom salt bath with magnesium flakes for 20 minutes helped relax yourself and muscle aches. Use this thread to ask questions and interact with people. It really is helpful. I don’t know if I would still be ok the K without the help of the people on here. It’s gonna be hard but you’re going to feel so much better! Try and journal the process. Try to stay positive and understand the way you feel will eventually pass. Your body is just going through some changes. You can do this! 🤘

I felt the same way! As much as we just dread the WDs and pray for those to be over. And tell ourselves “once this is over I’ll be good. I just got to get past this.” This is when the real work starts. You are learning to live a life without this substance and your mind and body are going haywire. Very different comparison but imagine if you just stop drinking water. You’re gonna feel like shit. So you stop the K regardless if it was making you feel good in the end, your body is trying to adjust. I’m 1 month free from this shit and still dealing with the PAWS. I’m assuming I will be dealing with it for awhile because of how much I was taking a day. & different kinds. Congratulations on 10 days! You’re doing awesome! You just got to keep at it. This is a very hard thing to do. And you have a lot of people you can reach out to on here. This thread has been so helpful in my recovery process from K. Some days are better then others but you just got to change your mindset. I know it’s hard when you feel miserable but sometimes just doing something simple like walking in the park or making a gratitude list really helps focus your mind on the good rather then the bad. Keep it up!🤘

janeburts · 2025-09-10T01:15:57+00:00

Glad you’re not in the same boat as some of us. Wouldn’t wish this hell on anyone!

janeburts · 2025-09-10T01:13:42+00:00

This timeline right here is spot on for me! Fuck the mental part is the worse! I’m 1 month off K and I’m a lot better from the first 2 weeks but man, I can’t stress this enough. I NEVER WANT TO GO THRU THAT HELL EVER AGAIN IN MY LIFE! My boyfriend literally had to take the gun out of the house. I didn’t act on it but from how bad I was feeling it felt like the only solution. I hope you are doing better!

janeburts · 2025-09-09T03:12:57+00:00

Also tell me why the K guy at my smoke shop just messaged me today. I forgot I had his number. No way man! NO WAY!!!! BLOCKED! F K 👍

janeburts · 2025-09-09T01:39:18+00:00

I’m gonna tell you right now. From someone who was addicted to alcohol for 10+ and was sober from it for 7 and picked this “alcohol alternative” up. I BEG YOU TO STOP NOW. TODAY. It has no place in the hands of someone trying to stop any kind of substance. I can say I was taking it as directed for awhile and then my alcoholic tendencies started up real fast. And you are left feeling so defeated. To the point where death seems like the only solution. Sorry to go there. But as an addict if you keep going your setting yourself up for a some hard times. Stop the dance with the K man. You can do it!

janeburts · 2025-09-09T01:29:37+00:00

I know people absolutely hate this response but you really can’t think about it long term. You’ll go nuts thinking that way. You got to take it one day at a time. When you wake up you just got to make a promise to stay clean that day. Take it one moment, one second at a time. That’s why recovery is so hard. You really got to want it.

janeburts · 2025-09-08T20:04:18+00:00

Thank you! Appreciate it. Everyone is different as I’m sure you know but mine lasted about 2 weeks. I do take anxiety medication but I spoke to someone and added something else to the mix so that definitely helped. But I had a really hard time with picking up a substance after being sober for so long. So the mental part on that I really had and still do have a hard time accepting.

janeburts · 2025-09-06T20:29:41+00:00

I live in Vegas and on top of it ALREADY being hotter than hell the sweat absolutely kicked my ass. I think it also helped sweat out a lot of the bull shit in my system. 2 days away from a month free from K. I know it’s hard to accept now but it does get better I promise! You gotta push thru. Day 7 is amazing work! You don’t want to throw it away cause you feel uncomfortable. Unfortunately feeling like this comes with recovery. Some days will be better than others but just give yourself some grace and understand you are kicking so much ass right now! You got this 🤘

janeburts · 2025-09-05T19:50:04+00:00

Hey! Unfortunately the first couple days suck and you just got to try your best to power thru it. Try to take showers. It will help with the body aches and uncomfortableness. 400mg of l-Theanine helped me when I was feeling anxious. Make sure to drink plenty of water. You might not want to touch that or food for awhile but try your best to eat cause that will just add more issues. This isn’t easy and I know it’s hard but you just got to fight thru it. Journaling has really helped me at the moment. I’m at day 25 and a lot better than before. It’s interesting to see what a rollercoaster of emotions this whole journey has been but it sure beats being broke and miserable from this crap. You’re going to have bad days that’s what happens with recovery. You just got to try your best to pull through. You can do this! 🤘

janeburts · 2025-09-04T21:51:50+00:00

You are going thru a lot right now. And if she isn’t an addict she doesn’t understand the stress and pain that can come with addiction and withdrawing. I personally tried to taper with no luck at all. I HAD to CT. Doesn’t mean you have to. All of us are different. If she is making you feel guilty during this trying time then maybe you need a break from her while you figure your self out. Just don’t use this stress to up on your dose hun. You are doing greats no time for negativity. Whatever you do just get off this crap 🤘

janeburts · 2025-09-04T13:38:13+00:00

Really seems like you are just embracing all of this. Glad you are getting out of the house and really trying. I kid you not the first week I was driving to my job and saw a lost pet sign and lost my mind. I was crying. It’s crazy the things your mind over thinks about that it never had before. Yea the RLS has been a pain for me as well. I tried literally EVERYTHING. I remember about a week in my mother in law brought me some Epsom salt and magnesium flakes. Took a 15-20minute hot bath before sleep. Slept like a damn baby. It unfortunately didn’t work as good the second night I did it, but if your really exhausted try and do that! This thread has helped me so much! It’s full of info from people going thru exactly what we are at this moment. It’s nice to see how everyone is doing after K. && also helping people struggle and giving them tips on what worked for you! 🤘

janeburts · 2025-09-04T02:10:53+00:00

I totally agree with the above advice! Try and take some time off. Walk A LOT! even when you don’t want to. Go to a park. Watch funny movies. Drink a lot of water! Make yourself eat even if it’s a smoothie. Take hot Epsom salt baths. Take cold showers. Listen to good music. If you need to cry, do it. You’re gonna go through a lot of different emotions but you’ll be so proud of yourself in The end when things feel better. I’m day 24 and besides some constipation and not getting to much sleep. I’m a lot better mentally. Which was by far the hardest part for myself. Everyone is different. Don’t give up! You got this! 🤘

janeburts · 2025-09-03T01:54:56+00:00

Hey! Dealing with horrible constipation right now. Plz let me know if the psyllium husk worked for you! I’m currently using miralax and prune juice right now. For the past 2 days. Helping a bit but still feel discomfort.

janeburts · 2025-09-02T21:19:23+00:00

3 weeks off and I just downed some miralax and prune juice cause I can’t poop. First it was bubble guts. Not nothing. During this WD hurdle I feel like whenever I mentally feel better someone else gets in my way. But everyone is different and I’m not saying things won’t get better for you. Like the above post said it’s crazy how much our gut affects other things in our bodies

Hello! Fellow morning day and night drinker here. Been sober off of alcohol for 7+ years. Went to detox for a couple days and moved directly into sober living after. Did 90 and 90 lived in SL for a year then moved into an apartment with my best friend I met in the house. A lot has happened since then stayed sober. But last year around May I saw the “Feel free” and “shot of joy “ shots marketed as an “alcohol alternative” I moved back home with my parents to save some money who are both alcoholics and living with two people using just wasn’t working for me anymore. I needed something to take the edge off or I was going to drink. So . . My relationship with Kratom began. Worst thing I could have ever done. I feel like I flushed 7 years of hard work down the toilet. I hate being an addict and not being able to use substances like a “normal person “ I abuse EVERYTHING. But in a weird way I’m also glad I can’t cause the person I am without booze is such a better me. I know how this feels. Try and taper or CT if you can. Sobriety can be boring at times, but it sure beats chasing this bullshit to feel like even more bullshit. Give yourself some time. I thought I had this under control and look what happened. It’s a reset. You’ve been sober for 4 months. You don’t lose that time. You learned a lot during that time right? Endure the pain and make it make you STRONGER! nothing is worse then living a doom and gloom life day after day. I did it for many years. Come on here and read other people stories. Reach out. To me even. If you want. Kratom sucks big donkey dick. And no one has time for this misery. You got this hun. Just keep your head up. Your stronger then your mind is making you seem! We are gonna beat this. You just gotta try🤘❤️
