I know this topic has probably been covered numerous times but I just wanted to get some input on my personal experience.
I have been taking 16g powdered Maeng Da every 24 hours for the past 4 months. My intentions with Kratom were to ease withdrawals from a heavy Hydrocodone habit, which it has served its purpose. Unsurprisingly Kratom worked very well and quickly became a substitute, an expensive one at that.
At this point there are numerous reasons why I need to stop but the main reasons are that I feel like it is affecting my job. Instead of making me energized and more focused it just makes me feel anxious and nervous at work. Being a hairstylist that will not do for me. Along with that, I will be relocating to NYC in less than a month and that just amplifies the aforementioned reason to quit.
I had previously been deathly afraid to withdrawal, expecting withdrawals to be comparable to what I have gone through with hydros in the past. Yesterday was my first full day without any Maeng Da. I prepared myself for hell but I actually felt amazing and clear headed. When I woke up yesterday I took 4 lopes, 2 5-HTP, B-vitamins, and 1 capsule of Vietnam Kratom and I ate appropriately throughout the day.
This morning I woke up and so far I feel as good as yesterday, I took the same regimen and I am hoping for a repeat.
What I am curious about is if things should get worse or do you think this is pretty much it?
Also, I am taking only 1 capsule of Vietnam Kratom with hopes that it would help to stave off any extra symptoms. I must mention that I don't like how VT kratom feels at higher doses, so I will not increase that dosage, only stop once I know I am in the clear.
