Hello,
Background:
I have been struggling with Kratom addiction for 10 years now. In the last two years I have become serious about quitting and it has been a great struggle. During this time I have been to rehab for 4 months but failed it due to a relapse. My daily dose has been 40g a day for a long time peaking at 70g. Over the past 2 months I have managed to reduce it down to 5g a day and now decided to try it with ibogaine. It is available to me legally and lab tested however without the availability of a treatment center, still I have support through a great therapist.
Main questions:
1) Incapacitation: While I'm able to not have any family or work responsibilities I'm wondering how bad I can expect it to be. I'm in my mid twenties, generally healthy, lean and regularly lift weights and go for runs. I also had normal ECG results 6 months ago and fast metabolism.
- Can I expect to be able to have basic conversations and maybe go for a short walk 12+ hours after the dose?
2) Finding the dosage: Is it possible to start with e.g. a 5mg/kg dose to test the waters, 10mg/kg a week later and if necessary 15mg/kg the following week?
- I have read that Ibogaine should be used with a gap of 1-3 months between each session however without any concrete explanation as to why. Does this hold any truth? I am aware the it is intended as a one and done type of deal and read about cardiovascular risks associated with frequent use but once I have found the correct "flood dose" with a maximum of three attempts that is all I'm looking to do.
I'm super grateful for any input!
