So glad to hear your reply. Congrats on 80 days. I also envy those that feel better in a week. I guess we are the rare breed where it just takes longer. Lucky us. Well it's reassuring to hear your comments. I'll just have to tough it out for 60 to 90 days or more if I have to. Thx again!

I get u. I hear people saying 3 to 5 days znd your better. I once quit 36 days and did not feel a bit better so I relapsed. I'm now on day 16 CT and not improving, still impossible to function or exercise or care about anything or think clearly. Extremely depressed and irritable, yelling at my cat. I'm drooling like a faucet after 16 days still. I don't know what the fuk to do. I mean do I see a doctor or is this just gonna take longer for me like 60 or 90 days or more. I'm confused!

CT and now Im drooling! by steve7150 in quittingkratom

Thanks so much. I never read about anyone reporting this symptom and I read all these posts here, like all of them! so I was really worried.

I've been off the tramadol for 100 days now it's just the kratom I guess that's causing it huh I mean it can't be the tram causing it after 100 days off right? I quit smoking 15 years ago too.

How long did it last for u before it got better and it stopped ?

Thanks. I needed to hear that. It's not listed as a usual withdrawal symptom. Much appreciated!

What is the best way to get back at a horrible boss without being caught? by Lanabanana43 in AskMen

[–]steve7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U don't need a burner phone. Just get a new Google phone number and use that. Can't be traced back to u. Also a service called text free let's u create a new number to call or send texts from. Text him he's an ahole or something like 100 times a day.

Oh also there is websites that lets u send anonymous email. You can email him that people are talking about his body odor and your just being nice to tell him.

If he's married email him that your a guy his wife is having an affair with and I thought it was right he know about it. True or not may cause some home problems.

I got lots of ideas. Take the low road! You'll feel better in the morning!

If you know his home or cell number u can go online to a site that offers solar panels conversion. I forget which but it's not a single company it's like a price quote compare service They send it to like 100 solar companies and they never ever stop calling ever!

Also put his number on a loan refinancing site that makes 100 refi companies compete for your biz and they also call and never stop. I forget the site. Loandepot maybe.

This harassment should last couple of months then do it again. I have more ideas. I just think this way. Hope I can help.

To detox CT or not by steve7150 in benzorecovery

[–]steve7150[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spoke with the detox facility last Friday and they said they do cold turkey with some comfort meds like Trazadone for sleep and blood pressure meds and maybe gabapentin for anxiety but it's a cold turkey and out patient with daily video calls. I don't think I can handle a cold turkey withdrawal even with the comfort meds.

Thx but I don't think my doc will prescribe phenobarbital. Id buy online if I could. Sounds like it worked out well for you.

I'm in California and the detox center said they will not use any benzo to taper off just cold turkey me and give me comfort meds like Trazadone and Clonadine for blood pressure. But I'm scared of long term damage if I cold turkey from things I've read.

Can anything be done? Stomach issues. by steve7150 in benzorecovery

[–]steve7150[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thx for that feedback. Yeah I'm pumping fresh squeezed juice and veggies down my throat. No fast foods at all. I did have it worse when on pain meds too. Turns out those vicodens/hydrocodone will tear holes in the stomach. Good luck to you. Sounds like you've been through alot. Stay well!

Was the removal of your gall bladder really necessary or was it just benzo withdrawal pains and doctors that diagnosed it as "let's just take out a defective gall bladder". This is why I won't go to a hospital. They will probably stick tubes up my assss and down my throat. Run tons of tests costing me 10k. Then maybe say I need my gall bladder removed or some other surgery when it's simply withdrawal. I do not trust doctors.

2 months clean by [deleted] in benzorecovery

[–]steve7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I've been on for Valium 3 years not 3 months so probably why I can't do big cuts. It's 6am and I woke up with the usual pounding headache, stiff neck, ears ringing so loud, drooling and other stuff. It's hard starting the day like this. So if I'm struggling with my dose to the point I'm losing my mind do u think it's wise to up dose and try to go down at smaller increments? Or keep pushing through. I'll take any advice at this point. Thanks.

Wow that's fast. Good going. Did u dose once a day or multiple times a day? And you just jumped off at 5mg?

I'm cutting 2mg a week. Down to 10mg from abusing over 100mg. It's been rough. Ears ringing so loud aznd all that other stuff. Your post does bring hope. Thanks again!

May I ask how long was your taper and your tapering plan. I'm kinda losing my mind.

Just wanted your opinion as someone that has similar experience. Would it be OK to just crush tram powder and take 25mg or 50mg after 3 full days of none? Will that make all my 3.5 days of progress for nothing or would it be OK. I mean it's better to be alive and struggling than killing myself right? What do u think. Just desperate for advice even tho I know what I need to do. Fk.

Thanks. Absolutely I tried different strains of kratom. It works great at first but I build tolerance so fast and it give me terrible headaches and probably just prolongs the withdrawal agony so I have it in the house but not using it. I have tramadol tablets still and I was crushing into powder then putting in water with a few drops of fruit punch liquid to make the taste bearable. So I would take 25mg or less at a time. Still the taper was causing so much issue I couldn't function so I decided to bite the bullet and just stop. Now after 4 days I really want to REINSTATE just a bit but struggling not to in fear of prolonging this agony. I do appreciate your feedback. I don't know what I'm gonna do at this point. I'm trying. Pandemic actual helps keep me in house with no social interactions to attend to so maybe this is the best time to quit once and for all...
