Only 5 grams a day? Fuck I’m taking like 30. Day one of detox over here.

[@bradmorgan252]

I was taking like 45 at least. Sometimes 60.

[@robnorthrup753]

I don’t understand why he’s vlogging a 30 day, 5 gram a day habit. It takes away from those of us that have actually struggled with kratom. That’s like someone going up to a person that has severe migraines and being like “yeah I know how you feel bud. My allergies acted up last week”.

I wanna stop tramadol too . I ordered 100grams… am ok 400mg tramadol daily now , I was at 500 and then taper to 400mg now … my Kratom arrives next week my plan to to try to tapper to 300mg by next week and then stop cold turkey .. yup I’ll start taking 2-4g morning afternoon and evening, I heard it’ll help with my withdrawals, am preparing myself with some vitamins B, C I heard it’s good too … am confused can I take ibruprofen in case of the chills / or some loperamide(Imodium) for the tummy cramps… I heard if you overdose vitamin c and B or take 15 2mg loperamide pills your withdrawals will be minimum too 🤷🏽‍♂️ , I just want to becareful mixing kratom , ibuprofen, loperamide is that ok ? Anyway I’ll update on my recovery if anyone care to ask 😢 mind over matter 😊the human body can withstand soo much when pushed to the limit , my withdrawals will be like my journey to being the best of myself , am prepared to feel like shit for a few while and stay healthy for yearssss

Many people don’t realize how powerful kratom is, a 1-2 gram dose is actually a lot. If your tapering off kratom I’d suggest getting down to 200 mg when you dose

Thank you

[@Chill_Humanoid]

Thank you for bringing awareness to this! I used to work somewhere that sold Red, White, and Green Kratom and the customers who used it long term said the withdrawals are worse than opioids. I hate that people think it’s totally harmless (and usually compares it to CBD).

[@crystalynnbearr]

They are no fun, for sure, there absolutely are physical withdrawals, but it is a walk in the park in comparison to other narcotics. You just have to make up your mind that you want to be done, and be done.

[@cm1133]

I am on Day 6 of no kratom. The withdrawal has kicked my ass more than any narcotic has. I spent day 1 and day 2 in the bed with flu like symptoms. I have ZERO energy abs must force myself to get things done. It sucks. I would not recommend any start taking Kratom. I was taking 4-5 grams, 4-5 times daily for 4 months. I decided to quit because Kratom made me super tired and caused awful neuropathy.

I had an episode with methadone for the high. Wd cold turkey from like 200 mg it was ahorrible 3 months. While kratom does have a withdrawal it is much lighter than that. I could understand though if that's all you knew it's pretty bad. I will say that once you know the feeling of withdrawal you notice it much quicker even though it's lighter if you know what feelings to look for and expect it it will seem much worse than it is.

Ughh it sucks that you can’t take it every day if that happens. The pandemic has me up to 3 to 4 times a week and only 3 to 4 grams. I feel like shit if I don’t use it but still functional at this point but I was an opiate addict a few years ago so I know it’s straddling the fence for me. I feel like it’s either that or have some wine to get my pain level down and my brain from flipping out. Sorry you feel sick man, and truly hope you feel better soon!

Im on day 3 from 6 months up to 30gpd dosing every two hours and after watching all your withdrawing from red kratom videos i feel exactly the same. Im going back to work tomorrow and hopefully im over the worst of it.

Please update i am on day 1 of cold turkey almost a complete 24 hours since last dose and i was taking same dose and same timeline of 6 months, how was it for you and how was your side effects?

@@joey2024 joey I feel amazingly now pal im back in the gym im stronger than ever. I don't even think about it now pal. I would say the first 6 days are the worst shitty sleep, night sweats, lethargic I went back to work on day 3 but it was far from over but I think that helped work it out of my system faster. You've just got soldier on i found that red hot baths two or 3 times a day helped with the crawly skin feeling and sore joints. I dont remember what day exactly I stopped suffering from the withdrawels because i just stopped counting the days as I felt better. Its been 3 weeks now and I dont even think about that dirty toxic sludge anymore.

[@WalshY_]

I would say 10 days and your done amd dusted it feels good to wake up and have a shit like a normal person again too and im no longer bloated. After 6 months of use it gave me lower back pain chronic constipation and fucked with my eyesight. Made me lazy too.

[@joey2024]

@WalshY_ Thanks bro that helped me alot and makes me want to just keep powering through it even more, it's been almost 40hours now since my last dose and I feeling a little better than yesterday, and yea man it did same to me after taking 6 months and I couldn't take it anymore that's why I quit cold turkey to just get it done and over with, I have not ate nothing at all since my cold turkey and gonna try to force myself to eat something this evening and the thc does help but it seems like I got to smoke five joints to even feel it. But seeing comment like yours seems to help the most and I appreciate the advice brother, and am very glad to hear that you made to your sobriety.

The numbness is often because of electrolyte/potassium deficiency

[@rowlandbuck2703]

Get on some Zoloft guys. You don’t need much. 50 Mg a day is starting dose. My heavy habit of kratom 20-40 grams a day for years. Sometimes i would wake up in withdrawal in hot sweats. Got on some Zoloft and I just got some loose stool and hot flashes, and insomnia. But the fan feels really good lol. After 3 days I have less withdrawal than when my use was half of what I just came off of. Anyway if nerves and anxiety are an issue in withdrawals for you. SSRI for a month or so will help. I take 5 htp with mine which you are not supposed to do because of risk of serotonin syndrome, but it’s highly unlikely, although possible. Also, don’t be afraid to drink mt. dew all day. Caffeine is close to the kratom alkaloid so it really helps too. Meditate to some KZbin vids to get through insomnia. I was amazing able to fall asleep with all that caffeine in my system.

[@bigbobby-yf8wu]

You took 5.2g a day?

[@EricBZink]

Yeah wasn’t much and still wrecked me some

[@Singletracklover]

I bought a few grams of Red White and Green from a company I considered reputable. Tonight's test was 1 gram of Red. For about 30 seconds after waiting 30 minutes I felt something positive however nothing more for the next 2 hours. So I consumed another gram of red with just water. 30-60minutes later nothing. I am done for tonight. I will try 1-2 grams of green in the morning and see if it helps at the gym. If not I will mark this down as a waste of money and never recommend it in the future.

[@Its_me_wish]

Dude..ofcourse you don't feel anything. You have to take 4-8 grams. Take 5 grams and report back lol. 2 grams might feel like half a cup of coffee. To feel the alkaloids in Kratom you need atleast 4 grams..6 would be better. If it's shit Kratom you might need to take 8 grams. 1-2 grams is not even on the detectable scale for 95% of people. You can't OD..so just take a bunch so you know what it's like.

[@doesnotFempute]

I realize this comment is a year old but in case anyone else is reading in the same boat, I'm share my experience that head shop kratom did absolutely nothing for me. Not saying that's what you bought but if anyone is thinking about it, just don't. Capsules also didn't digest in time to have an effect As a person who has never touched opiates outside of the hospital, my baseline dose for red maeng da is 2 grams. I have to take it on an empty stomach and I have to either do a tea or toss & wash. Capsules didn't touch me at all, and had me burping up kratom taste for 24 hours. I've read that people with experience using opiates need a much higher dose in order to get relief. Adding lemon or lime juice and turmeric helps the effects last longer. Don't ask me why. I took my tea at 9 this morning and it's 2 pm and I'm still good. Will probably redose at 5 and then again right before bed. Give it another shot and be open to tinkering until you find what works for you.

[@thetruth5791]

What do this help for ??????

[@aaronbankston5702]

Question for you man, how many grams were you doing a day and for how long? I did it for 2 weeks and was doing about 20 GPD to 30. Today is day 1 and so far it’s not too bad I just am expecting it to intensify after a solid 24 hours

That’s a pretty high gpd, but only two weeks you may have very minimal or no withdrawal..good luck!!

[@Boojyman]

How's it going

A lot of reasons for people to go cold turkey. For me, I’m an addict 🤷‍♀️ I can’t taper to save my life and I’m sick of replacing one addiction for another.

[@danieltown2471]

U want to know real pain? Take green strain and eat 2 oz a day! I would withdrawal if I didn’t take it every couple of hours so it got to the point where I was only taking it to stave off the withdrawals. Today is day 1 of stopping and I don’t know how people do this shit! My wife is the only reason I haven’t taken kratom to make the pain go away!!!

[@RiBlizz]

How are you doing today man. I feel your pain. I’m currently trying to kick it again. at about the 13th hour. The depression, no eating or sleeping and irritable mood not to mention the rls.

[@Jameskenomis3]

I am by no means slamming you or minimizing your experience. You were at a very normal/ low dose. I’m an idiot and have been taking around 60 g a day off and on for six years. I have also withdrawn off of other harder opiates. Kratom by far is the worst when it comes to psychological withdrawal symptoms to me.

[@FO4R111]

Me phisical

[@justinmay8161]

Whooo boy, let me tell you, I was taking 100 plus grams a day for years. White Borneo, real strong stuff, plus 7 to 8 vivazens which have Kratom extract in them. I had to quit cold turkey, that was the most miserable 7 days of my life. Terrible cold sweats and hot flashes, didn't sleep for 4 days, I wanted to tear my leg skin off it was crawling so bad. Stomach was twisted up so bad I started bleeding in the toilet when I could go. The worst boredom and depression I've ever felt, I literally felt nothing at all, not even anxiety, just nothing. Couldn't eat, couldn't drink, couldn't sleep. It was a horrible experience. I guess I didn't learn cause I got back on it, only maybe 20 grams a day now and no vivazen. Don't do too much kratom, cause you will run out eventually, and it ain't no fun lol

[@RiBlizz]

Hey man, good going on reducing your intake. 100gpd, I can imagine the constipation and shackles. Im on about 30-40 gpd. I’ve tried to kick it a couple times with no success. Here is to day 1…again. What you said resonates with me man. The no sleep, rls, depression and boredom with that hollow feeling of emptiness. That’s probably the most difficult part. Cause if that didn’t come about you’d be in a better state of mind to endure the physical. Hang in there man. It sucks needing something that offers you no satisfaction anymore and without it you’re drastically miserable. Can’t believe this guy went through those withdrawals on 5gpd. Thats crazy.

I used kratom when I was going cold Turkey after nine years of 8mg of suboxone - no taper. I was taking 8 ounces of kratom every 3 days. Today is day 2 in kratom withdrawal and, I’ve heard so many horror stories about how bad this withdrawal is but. I feel like the people who say K detox is so bad haven’t ever experienced any REAL withdrawal 😂 this sucks, but it is NOTHING in comparison - and I was scared to death.

[@snyder_fine_art]

You're one of the lucky ones! Im glad that you were able to transition away from suboxone, I truly am. Im thinking about trying a green vein but I dont know which one yet. Have you had experience with any green vein kratom, and if so tell me about it please?

[@crystalynnbearr]

@@snyder_fine_art I don’t feel lucky at all, getting off subs was the most difficult thing I’ve ever done but it wasn’t as horrible as I’d built it up to be in my mind - not with the help of kratom. The kratom withdrawals weren’t any fun but after the suboxone, they were nothing in comparison. The kratom strain which felt the most like a narcotic buzz was maeng da.

Kratom withdrawal? How do you get addicted to Kratom to begin with.

[@laylascott6096]

If you take it daily you will get physically dependent and will have withdrawals. Pretty brutal

[@doctorspockARTS]

@@laylascott6096 That’s my point. Kratom is blocking your opioid receptors so when you get off your brain is going to rebound from the months of suppressing the chemical. I understand taking Kratom to ease withdrawals from a powerful opioid but to take Kratom just to take it and set your body up to have withdrawals is over my head. I’ve tried Kratom and it doesn’t make me feel any different than a cup of coffee does with the ability to help you sleep. My point is it’s a trash drug on its own and should only be used to ease opioid withdrawals. Do you get what I’m saying when I ask how do you get addicted to Kratom? It’s a lifesaver for real withdrawals but to take it with no prior opioid dependence is dumb if you ask me. It basically opioid withdrawal in a bottle without the kool buzz.

[@kyleclause]

It’s easy to get addicted to for me it’s very strong if I take more than 3-4 grams at once it makes me very sedated and euphoric. Just super chill and relaxed

[@mikegaustad477]

Kratom detox is like any other substance detox. Ever drink coffee for a extended period and quit cold turkey ? Ever quit nicotine cold turkey ? There is no harm in having some withdrawal from Kratom . Why would you want to quit in the first place ? The stuff is great !

[@crystalynnbearr]

There’s so much wrong with your comment. First, you can’t compare coffee or smokes to any sort of narcotic (or something which behaves like a narcotic). I have been an addict since I was twelve, when my doctor prescribed me monthly Vicodin. As hard as I tried, I couldn’t kick the pills, so at 32 I finally got a script for suboxone which took away my addict mentality. Started out at 24mg subs per day, and over the next nine years weaned down to 8. My doctor up and quit 7 months ago, so I had to go without. I used kratom for those withdrawals, and after six months I was going through an eight ounce bag of K every three days - did I mention I am an addict? Pedal to the metal or nothing at all! Three weeks ago I decided I was done spending the money on the K, my kids need Christmas, so I quit 🤷‍♀️ I was terrified, because of all the videos I’ve seen and Reddit pages which said how horrible k withdrawals were. I’ve used nothing to combat the withdrawals, aside from Benadryl when the runny nose really gets me, a GNC vita pack for energy and metabolism, immodium when needed, and melatonin to sleep. This withdrawal physically sucks, of course, but it is NOTHING in comparison to kicking pills or subs. I’ll never touch another substance again. Now, to answer your question as to why anyone would want to quit k? It’s bad for your liver, it can eventually rob you of your joy and your ambition, it’s not inexpensive, and most people don’t like having a crutch they have to lean on. That’s why! But dude, don’t compare this sort of addiction to coffee or nicotine. It’s nowhere near the same thing. I was a 2 pack a day smoker who drank coffee all day long and I quit those, without feeling like I was dying. When you take Kratom daily, you WILL experience actual physical withdrawals when you run out. And if you’re not a seasoned addict (like a lot of us) it’s going to be the worst hell on earth for you, for a few weeks. Ignorance is bliss though!

Cocaine was the worst for me personally

[@epicone1797]

@@EricBZink somehow im not into uppers as much as weed and downers

[@crystalynnbearr]

Suboxone withdrawals was a son of a bitch. With the Xanax, I’m terrified of those withdrawals. I make sure never to touch them more than once a week - medically I need them but nope! Not on the daily. I refuse

[@Luke-tx5qw]

alcohol takes my cravings away, but I have never been an alcoholic. sorry to be a piece of shit to the alcoholics in the comments lol.

Epsom salt bath will help and Imodium will also help

Kinda slow and kinda rapid is an oxymoron

If you're out of shape and unhealthy then yea, kratom is tough to kick

[@robertgutierrez1549]

You gotta be lying 5.2 g. That’s not that bad.

[@tannerwidstrom4456]

This is still pathetic. After seeing this I kept taking my 20 grams a day for 2 weeks straight and had no side effects after quitting. Its all mental man.

[@Its_me_wish]

This dude is definitely being over dramatic...there is some slight withdrawal to Kratom if you use for a long time at moderate to high doses..but this guy is making it sound like he is kicking heroin! It's not that serious. All his Kratom withdrawal videos are way over exaggerated. This dude doesn't even LOOK sick! You ever see someone on day 1, 2, 3, 4...of an opiate withdrawal??? The guy on the NyQuil commercials looks sicker than this guy. I've said it before..I'm sure he means well..but the description is not accurate at all. Kratom is not that serious. I've done Kratom for MONTHS and so have friends of mine and stopping cold turkey just leaves you with some low energy and a very slight opiate-ish withdrawal for a few days. I mean like 5% of what an opiate withdrawal is..if that.

@@Its_me_wish I didn't even know it had withdrawal potential when I first started using it. I would take it twice a day with 3-5 grams per dose. I would do this for a month or two. When I ran out, I shrugged my shoulders and just stopped. No urge to immediately reorder. Not even any real mental craving for it. I did this a few different times with months or years in between ordering it and never noticed any withdrawal symptoms if they were present. I didn't even know withdrawal was possible years ago when I first tried it. I was far more mentally addicted to weed than I ever was with kratom. I just enjoyed using it. I just ordered some for the first time in a while and now I've been seeing all these people talking about "nightmare withdrawals", sometimes even with tapering. Not gonna lie it started to worry me a bit as I ordered far more than I have in the past and got a lot of Red Bali which supposedly has worse withdrawals than the greens I was taking before. Seems to effect people very differently.

[@crystalynnbearr]

I do agree that the withdrawals from k are not in the same ballpark, but if a person has never experienced opiate withdrawal I’m sure it would be the worst hell ever for them. Don’t knock someone else’s pain, my friend.

[@coachtim6188]

The fact that you keep calling it "red Kratom" shows how little you know about the stuff. LOL That would be like saying I took blue Advil. It's just Advil. It's just Kratom with different strains and blends that all will have the same withdrawal symptoms. LOL

Why being a addiction would you even mess with that crap / come on man get off u tube /// your not sober

[@LittleWhiteLines]

Obviously you’re not sober with that awful spelling and grammar

[@Freshy_Jones]

Kratom doesn’t do this lmao, just get some damn exercise

[@FO4R111]

I did 30 grams a day for about 6 months..it was hell to kick it..nausia.shivering like crazy..puking for 2 weeks straight...it was like quiting heroïne

[@nibbles2589]

5 grams there’s no way
