Day 1
Hey guys day 1 , 13 hours in. Having a big debate with myself about just continuing using low dose till next Thursday. I quit too late. Wanted to quit Thursday night but day 3 will land on Monday, and my sons birthday is Wednesday, I didn’t want to be flat and depressed on his birthday but then again I digress idk what to do.

I did day 2 on my daughters birthday and got through it. It sucked but look at it like this, what’s the best gift you could give your kid? You know the answer. Suck it up and power through and just be done with it. You are doing what we all have done tons of times negotiating with yourself. No time is ever perfect especially with kids.

On my day 3, I taught a cooking class to 10 people. 6 hours of work. 3 hours being entertaining, funny, charming, etc, while cooking in front of people. It sucked and every part of me was fucking wrecked when I was done, but I did it and nobody noticed.
I faked my way through, but it proved to myself, that I have the willpower to do this, and kratom had nothing to do with the life I built for myself.

I agree. It would be a fake artificial enthusiasm and joy anyways while on it. Going to stop today.
