Kratom for Heroin Withdrawal

[laughingdead]

Hello Everyone,

I know people have posted about this before but I am amazed at the lack of detailed information that is given. I used to inject a long time ago, and then moved to another country where H is not available for about 4 - 5 years. I moved back, and about a year later decided to try a little. I have no injected it only been snorting it. It's only been going on about 3 months at the most, a little less. However, now when I try to stop I get withdrawals. I don't do a lot compared to other people I've read and seen. For me three bags in a day is a lot, and I can get through a day and half on one. I tried to taper but I am not doing great with that. In a couple weeks I am leaving for another country for a month. Withdrawal is going to be a bitch, and I was hoping someone could tell me something about kratom... like in what form to buy it in. How much can be taken for opiate withdrawal.

I am 5 foot tall and weigh about 120 lbs (55 kilos).

Hi laughingdead, I edited your post because we can't tell you where to buy kratom. You may get more responses in the Other Drugs forum so I'm moving it there. In the meantime, you can use the search function in the upper right side of the screen for threads on kratom.

I've used kratom off/on for about a year and used it while getting off suboxone. It's kind of self-limiting so it doesn't matter how big or small you are bc if you take more than 2 tablespoons (around 10 grams) you could get dizzy and nausea will be bad. Get the powdered leaf form because its much easier to work with. Mix 1 tablespoon in a glass of orange juice and drink it on an empty stomach. 1-1 1/2 T was always enough for me but you might need less, although I think 1 T is a good dose to start with. Since kratom binds to the same receptors as other opiates, it can help w/d. It completely took away w/d for me for about 4-5 hrs. just as we would any one, we'll let the OP rely upon common sense if he wishes to pursue this as a legitimate form of tapering. Otherwise, really great post with useful and, IME, quite accurate information! Nice!

There is most certainly a lot of info on kratom on this website. Also about using it for opiate withdrawals.

Try using the search box in the top left, the google one. If you tried the one on the right it probably didn't do shit for you.

You mean, like, advice on how to obtain it? T. Calderone already had to remove your sourcing comment here. Between this and the other thread, I'm left with the impression that I ought to direct you to my signature.

By coincidence, a link to the forum rules exists there. It's a good read

I say start with 1.5 level teaspoons. Wait 90 minutes. If you feel alright and your stomach is good then maybe add another teaspoon. Be careful nausea is an uncomfortable but avoidable side effect.

It amazes me how many people eyeball kratom when gram scales are as cheap as 10 bucks. If you want to avoid nausea and have consistent effects just scale your dose . Kratom nausea, dizziness, eye-wobbles are no fun. Remember, while you may have tolerance to the opiate alkaloids, you have none for the other twenty-something alkaloids so you can still get dizzy and sick.

Is this not habit forming? What's different between this and subs?

What is wrong?

Maybe I am not the greatest at finding posts but every single post I found on using kratom for tapering on this website and others were for other opiates and didn't include specific gram information. I know where to find kratom as I am very interested in ethnobotanicals in general. I don't know why you feel the need to pick on me. I came on bluelight to meet non-judgmental people but I get the sense that you are treating me like just another "junkie." I read the rules and didn't feel I was breaking any by creating a new post. The other person that responded to me was extremely helpful. I decided not to go with kratom for now because of the price.

I thought you said you'd be happy to talk with me because I've been feeling lonely, but I get the sense that is not true. You may be off of the H but please stop treating me poorly because I am not. I am not trying to break your rules or attack you personally. I think you are reading things into my posts that are not there.

Why would I source on kratom? All I have to do is put it in google to find it or go to a headshop or any of a number of ways to get it. The same can be said for illicit drugs when one lives in NJ. I just go next door to Trenton or Newark or any other major cities.

I am really upset by your reply to this post. I did nothing out of the rules. Point me to a kratom post where someone mentioned their weight and height similar to mine who also used the same drug and wanted to taper from a relatively small habit such as mine. Everybody's situation is different and that is why I decided to post. I have been reading posts on here for years and I finally got the courage to post and I've been torn down by you twice. I really feel like it was a mistake to reach out now.

I didn't have access to subs at all when I wrote this post. I am now going to see a doctor because I found out that I have insurance momentarility that will cover the treatment. When I posted this I felt kratom was one of my few options because cold turkey was not working for me.
