Opioids Kratom withdrawal set back

[muskolo]

I've been trying to quit kratom this week with the help of loperamide. I made it until day 3, yesterday afternoon, and had a high dose enough for me to get a good buzz from it. Will this set me back to day one? I don't think I'm going to use lope any further because I took it for 4 days and don't want to experience any w/d symptoms from lope so I'm just riding the rest of the week out. I'm just hoping my fuck up doesn't send me back to square one.

Any thoughts or guesses?

It will definitely send you back to square one.

But I'm wondering what kind of Kratom withdrawal symptoms you're having?

I use daily between 25-30 grams. When I run out for a week, I find the only withdrawal I have is lethargy. No anxiety, GI discomfort, lack of sleep, or any of the other typical opioid symptoms. Just extreme lethargy, and a need for sleep.

I only use 10-15 grams a day and when I go into withdrawal I get all typical withdrawal symptoms including anxiety, cold sweats, diarrhea, insomnia, RLS in legs and arms as well as the extreme lethargy. I'm about at the 24 hour mark and feel fine so I do not think it's putting me back to square one like I originally thought it did. Usually by the 24 hour mark, I feel it coming on. Who knows though, I'm sure the loperamide is still doing its job. I've read where others in opioid withdrawal, actual opiates/opioids, take a dose at the 3 day mark and still have withdrawal symptoms but are lessened to a degree and resolve themselves within a few days.

I'll report back in a few days in case anyone has a similar experience later on and is looking for another persons experience.

So, I'm heading into 48 hours since I slipped up and took a hefty dose of kratom after 3 days of abstinence using loperamide and I am having no withdrawals at all. I haven't taken lope in 48 hours either, for what it's worth. Looks like I got lucky this time...

Congrats, muskolo. I know we've talked back and forth a couple times via PM. I went about 3 days without Kratom after a heavy habit (30+g) and was sick on a scale of about 6/10. Bad but obviously been through worse in my past with hard drugs.

Well I went the lope route and took that for a few days in moderate doses, felt okay, normal even besides anxiety, but then went out and fucked up because I got some 8 mg Subutex for free. I did two of them over the course of about a day and a half and it's now been over 24 hours since I took my last bump of it and pupils still pinned, etc. I'm worried that I just fucked up my progress but I'm going to try and c/t from here on out. Hopefully this doesn't escalate things too much more since kratom has been my only opiate use for the last 9 months-ish.

I just posted this same thing basically in another thread but then saw yours. Glad to hear you're doing better, pray for me if you believe in that kind of thing. And hope that my full panel probation test doesn't catch bupe.

Thanks man and for sure, you'll be in my prayers. Keep me posted over the next few days as I'm curious to see how the subutex affects you over the next few days.
