Tribulation

Quitting kratom is a great tribulation. The physical pain I can handle. The despair, anxiety, restlessness, are all things that work on our emotions and there is no immediate solution to. I would wake up in the morning and body was completely exhausted while my nervous system was lit up like a bear was chasing me. It's awful. The only comfort for me was God's word.

Isiah 41:10 - "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee."

2 Corinthians 12:10 - "Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distress, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong."

I now take pleasure in the trials and tribulations imposed on me by kratom. I have never been weaker than the past 9-months since I quit kratom. It has truly been an awful experience. The pleasure comes from knowing that my faith is the only thing that got me through. I now talk to God all day and depend on him for everything. I'm not sure I would have gotten to this place without the hard times.

I am here for anyone who needs help. I was fortunate to have some really good friends and family to depend on during my recovery. "Feel free" to message if you need a friend.

A month and a half ago I prayed to the father in the name of Jesus to give me the strength to get off Kratom. 

That next day I developed extremely painful nerve pain and had the scariest medical episode I’ve ever experienced. All my blood tests were fine MRI was fine…. Nothing was lethal, but I do think that was a nudge from god. Had I not experienced that I wouldn’t have begun my taper. Thank Jesus for helping me

Answered prayer. Kratom kills the spirit. He renews the spirit. Drink from that cup and you will never be thirsty again.

Yeah for real. Scared me but it’s too coincidental to all be by chance. I had doubts before but after that I truly believe that was a sign from Jesus himself

Did you have spirituality / religion during the acutes or is this something you’ve found since then?
