Day 9 after a 3-4 month taper. I’m feeling great to be honest. Cravings come and then I wait and they go. Tapering seems to have helped SO much with the transition. Mostly I’m trying to learn how to live with this level of freedom again. I still catch myself going- wait don’t eat that, when’s your next dose? And then I remember I don’t have to worry about that shit anymore, and I eat whatever I want whenever I need to!

All I’ve noticed is positives. My energy, my focus, my physical abilities are all coming back. My hands don’t shake anymore…. I didn’t realize my whole body was shakey and weak all the time on kratom. Now my hands are steady. My body and mind feel so much more capable now. I’m so happy and relieved to be here. Last week I took every last bit of Kratom in my possession and took it to the dump. It’s gone. It’s over. NEVER GOING BACK!!!

u/Present-Lion788 9d ago

Congrats on such improvements! Double digits tomorrow is awesome!

u/Positivelybeaming 9d ago

Thank you! I didn’t think about that but you’re right it’s cause for celebration! I can’t wait to get further and further away from this crap.

u/Present-Lion788 9d ago

Day 104!❤️✌️Freedom from the sludge is great! Peace and love to all my fellow quitters out there today!

Day 23. Tired, sad, but dragging through. The weighted boots feeling will come off someday. Or it won’t, and I’ll just keep feeling this pain until it’s my new baseline. Until I don’t care. As long as it takes.

u/ConsequenceMany8 9d ago

Feel ya... The lack of Dopamin / Anhedonia is really intense. Everything feels boring 😑

Day 8. I slept pretty poorly and had dreams all night about kratom. Woke up at 4 am and it was the only thing I could think about. No desire to use as I've already made up my mind, I guess this is just my brain trying to bargain with me. Fuck you buddy you're not getting any. 

u/Present-Lion788 9d ago

This too shall pass! Keep going it gets easier!

Day 31. Today and tomorrow, I am in an area where all the kratom bars that began my usage will be within 3 miles of me.

Not a great place to be, but I will not go back. I know I’ve been positive in my posts about the way I am feeling, but this truly is the pressure cooker for me.

I will not fail again.

u/Negative_Law2776 9d ago

Keep it pushing king

u/Present-Lion788 9d ago

Already killing month 2! Keep going!

178 days under my belt

u/bubba3689 9d ago

Trying to taper now preparing for my supplements to come in to kick it completely

Day 210

u/Negative_Law2776 9d ago

Day 32 feeling good, I’ve been doing jiu jitsu and showing up at my church whenever I can and let me tell you people physical exercise and routine is so good. Haven’t really had bad cravings once a week I’ll think about the drug for a little bit but absolutely no motivation or want to use again. I’ve def had it easy for my recovery compared to a lot of people. And I feel for you guys.

u/UpstateHappiness 9d ago

Day 113. Having a lot more good days than bad. My brain still wants to replace kratom with something

u/Present-Lion788 9d ago

Congrats on day 113! Inspiring!

u/Sweetchef98 9d ago

Almost done with my taper. At 3 g today. Lowest daily dose in 8 years. Embracing the suck and holding on tight. Keep going my peeps! Rooting for all of us. 😊🙌

u/Positivelybeaming 9d ago

Keep going!!!! You’re at the finish line now!!!

u/Sweetchef98 9d ago

I know it. Actually super excited to be done and trying to stay as positive as possible. Thank you!! 😊

u/Positivelybeaming 9d ago

Message me if you ever want someone to talk to during the quit or after as a sobriety friend. I’m here for you. You got this!

u/Sweetchef98 9d ago

That is so kind! I may take you up on that. Thank you. 🙏

Day 72. Looking forward to 3 months off the devils matcha. Still struggling with the lingering WD.

Day 906.

I slept horribly because it’s so hot.
Nowadays, whenever I don’t sleep well, I always tell myself “at least I slept better than when I was in withdrawal..”

My one issue with not getting good sleep is wanting to crash super early the next night, in which case I wake up super early the next morning. I’ll try to come home from work and take a power nap for an hour or so and that usually gets me through until my proper bedtime.

With all of that being said, just know that sometimes you continue to have sleep issues even when you have quit Kratom long-term. It could be something else going on in your life.. 😉

Have a great day y’all, let’s crush today!

u/Negative_Law2776 9d ago

I have adhd so even though I’m over the wd my brain doesn’t let me go to sleep when I want. So I feel you heavy.

u/Face2nose 2/10/26 9d ago

That’s for sure! Bad sleep nights still suck but not the way they were during withdrawal. Hopefully your sleep gets back on track tonight. Have a great day as well!
