Hey every one I hope I'm posting in the right forum if not I'll repost it but I need some help.

Yesterday I tried going cold turkey off a 5 bag a day habit and the physical symptoms I can deal with but I couldn't even stare at the TV or smoke pot I thought I was going crazy.
Then I looked at my phone and my guy was texting me and I was in such bad shape I had to get some

I really just need to get past the first/2 day then I'm fine its just that even smoking pot doesn't seem to take some of the pain away
so I figure is there a way for me to taper down I do have about 1200mg of gabapentin after reading some threads I didn't realize that would help kratom to sould help right? I have no experience with either any help would be appreciated there's a smoke shop by me that sells kratom ill prolly stop by there today to see what's up

Thanks in advance

The Gabba goo is enough for 3 or 4 nights to help you sleep. Kratom definitely helps three or four times a day even though it's habit-forming it's nowhere near the same level
 
Thanks for the quick reply

So i got some red vein bali I hope this helps, I get how the gabbys would help, I dident realize they would tho and hopefully this helps to I really just need it to get past the first/2 day, I can deal with the wanting to get high and being physically sick
But its that whole feeling crazy that fist day I don't like but I did try to go from 5 bags a day to zero I sould have known better lol

Well I just worked all day and I dosed last at 4pm and im starting to get tired and cold and all that bullshit, I'm going to go home smoke and do a bag and hopefully sleep, I just hope I can sleep becouse I've been waking up every like 2 hours and dosing up so I can sleep...prolly one of the reasons my withdrawls where so bad....

I'll keep u all updated specially when I jump off I'm going to need the help. The mental part I can't deal with like the 1st and 2nd day so hopefully the kratom and gabbys will help me there
 
Just trying to get clean dope is my doc other then pot,but as you prolly know life is messed up when u need to do some shit just to feel better every 4 hours....but yea im home from work smoking haven't done anything yet, I've been working but today was like my first full 14 hour day in awile and I don't feel sick or anything even tho I prolly sould by now

But I'll let u know when I go without again like I said I don't know if it happens to every one but like I just can't do anything when I'm sick that 1st day is just brutal I don't get physically sick really when I kick its more of a mental thing and I hate it...
 
Sorry for double posting but yea im in a bad place...I can even sleep 3 hours without having to wake up to do some so I can sleep,I've gone thru withdrawls before and when I was younger I use to shoot up and I don't remember it being this bad

But yea I guess I'm in a worse place then I thought first things first when I'm working ill be able to keep my mind occupied and try to last as long as I can before I have to dose that and I'll just have to stay up all night and be sick I can't wake up every few hours to do shit im fucking myself up even more.

It sucks to my "family" life is all fucked up not becouse of this so I don't have to worry about that but I finally got myself my own place and a good job also...but I did this to myself...lol

Sorry for the wall of text
 
Hang in there!!!

When was your last dose? If you give us this we can approximate your time in the tunnel. Your doing great!! Keep going you will be out in no time.


Keep your thoughts in the present as your emotional response is going to be severe. Stay out of the past and don’t worry about the future.

You can do this!!

Switching to either the kratom or I got gabbys I just need to get thru 2 days ill be good
 
Will it hold me? Like will I be able to go to work and like sleep? I'm just bugged out becouse when I tried to quit Sunday I got like 40 mg of oxy and it littirally did nothing so I'm scared the kratom will do nothing, plus I got like 24 mg of gabby I'm hoping I can take that Sunday and at least not go crazy that's the problem I'm having the first day or 2 I just can't do anything but feel like I'm going crazy
 
So how this works is five times the half like plus around three or four days is light at the end of the tunnel. That’s where you start to feel much better. Then you have a period of paws. Some people have been reporting effects from fent that don’t fit this model.

That’s without taking any opioids. If you take any of those then you reset the situation off the half-life of the new substance. That’s for full detox. For switching to a less potent opioid the time line may be similar.

I don’t believe the kratom will hold you, but as your switching over it will make things more bearable. Sleep when you can, but don’t throw a ton of chemicals at that as they likely won’t work well and will just fuck u up. Your trying to stabilize so the less you add to the fire the better.

There is no free ride out❤️❤️❤️.. we all pay the piper. You can do this and freedom is on the other side.. picture that.. free of the physical dependence.. free of the daily nightmare of constantly needing a fkn fix.

Well yea I know I'm going to feel like shit no matter what I'm just trying to lesson it is all,i figure the gabbys or kratom would lesson the blow so to say u know what I mean but I guess if I have to ill go on the kratom and ween myself down from that its more manageable from what I'm reading
 
Also if your experiencing the heart rate side effects then https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clonidine

May be a good medication to explore. It needs to be used as directed and TAPERED OFF at the end. I used it in my detox. My detox sucked balls so I’m not sure if it helped, but it didn’t hurt and I’m almost a decade off opioids and benzodiazepines. Freedoms out there!!

The only wierd thing with my heart is when I smoke my anxiety goes crazy and thats another thing last time I kicked smoking helped now it makes my heart go crazy and I start to bug out....but yea last night I woke up and I could hear my heart iny head pounding so I had to wake up and use I'm going to just try to deal with it tonight and if I need to dose I will before work, it's just crazy I've gone thru withdrawls lots and I use to shoot and I don't remember it being this bad
 
Well I'm really just going to cold turkey again I got a good supply of gabapentin that from what I'm reading sould help with rls, so if I can get some rest and sleep that first day it will help alot I always seem to find that once I'm in wd and I can finally sleep I start to feel better paws is there still but that doesn't really bother me other then the body pain and being overly tired. If I have to use kratom I will but I'm trying to cut out opiates all together, I've only been using for 3 months and if I at least don't taper down now it's just going to get harder
