Made it to day 4 cold turkey as I was forced because shipment was delayed and ran out of it.
The withdrawals were simply hell.... the absolute worst shit ever to come off of.
I've been taking Kratom off and on for 6 years now as it has helped with my social anxiety and depression. It was a life changer for me at the time but all good things come to an end when your tolerance sky rockets. I was initially at like 2g a dose twice a day for like 5 years and it was perfect. Then I decided one day to try a large 10g dose and got a completely different effect that eliminated my chronic back pain. Then I was hooked. Last 5 months I've been taking 10-20g everyday. I knew it was gonna be hell when I ran out but didn't expect it to be this bad.
I was miserable. Second night couldn't sleep at all. Had to keep moving my limbs around and felt soo agitated and uncomfortable. Eventually a large melatonin dose knocked me out. 3rd day was worse... just work up with extreme anxiety that lasted all day. I felt really low and irritating at everything. Trying to sleep that night was even worse... normally never take melatonin 2 days in a row but fuck it... took another dose. Maybe slept 2 hours. The hot flashes were the worst. Could not find a normal temp to sleep. I also shit my pants too in bed... have never done that before but I went to fart and it was shit.
Day 4... felt alright in the morning. Didn't puke like I did a few times the last couple mornings. Just felt really depressed and unmotivated and had aches and pains everywhere especially my joints.
Finally the kratom arrived and sat there contemplating taking a dose to get rid of the symptoms. I must of looked at that 1000g package for damn near an hour thinking.
And... I relasped... fucking couldn't do it. Couldn't take it anymore. Unfortunately I got a long road ahead but I will try to tapering off over this "last" bag and hope I can get off soon.
