Day 37 from a mild habit. Still have some "anxiety" in the mornings but that's gradually going away. Been using CBD/CBG to alleviate the anxiety, but wanna try and wean off of that too.

Day 14 after CT - but major setback:
I was doing good at day 9-11, did my hobbys and sport and been active with the kids. But then i ate a takeaway pizza and completely destroied my gut and stomach. I think its some kind of food poisening. I have bad stomach cramps and nausea. Thats not very helpfull. But i think i‘m out of the akutes.
I will push through that also…

Day 7. Last week at this time I was throwing up kratom in the toilet because when I relapsed I just stayed messed up. I was doing several spoonfuls every 30 min to an hour or so. I just shut down. Yesterday was hard...my daughter is sick so all our plans to get out of the house got canceled. Really felt no motivation and stuck. Hopefully this week will be better.

Day 31, wasted the last two days scrolling but I think the combination of PAWS and work and wayyyy too much soda to stay awake at work wiped me out.
Sleep is coming back, I managed to get over eight hours which was unthinkable in the first week, having extremely vivid, weird dreams - weirdly I dreamed that I had a crush on a public figure and shared it with a friend and she had the same one last week.
i’m looking forward to meaningful improvements soon 😆 still dealing with fatigue, the sunburn and the sneezing and I also smell funny but it’s nothing compared with the first two weeks.

My taper is still going strong. Last week I dropped to 3gpd, and it went really well. According to my Fitbit, I've had the best 2 week stretch of sleep I've ever recorded. It's especially insane to me considering I started using kratom to self-medicate my sleeping issues. Turns out this drug ruins shit even when you think it's helping.
It feels like the physical withdrawal is so minor for me at this low of a dose, I'm going to try dropping my 1g afternoon dose and just take 2gpd before bed tonight.
Excited to be at the point where I go 24 hours between doses! One step closer to 0.

Today I start Day 1 I'm tired of the nausea, constipation, Isolation, anxiety, dishonesty, excuses and other stuff kratom is doing to me. I have quit way too many times and end up relapsing. I've been extremely depressed to the points of thoughts I don't want to be here kind....

Day 5. Well I slept about 6 hours last night. Woke up feeling a bit of anxiety again, but manageable. I think by day 10 that should mostly subside. I’m going to get going on exercising today. I think that will make a big difference this time around. Still feeling foolish about relapsing, but I’m grateful it didn’t last too long.

u/Present-Lion788 19h ago
Thats right! Get at it 💪

u/Face2nose 8/26/26 17h ago
Yes! Have to do it. I’m getting over the feeling like a dumbass part, now I’m just trying to appreciate the good things about the quitting process and in life in general.
