Kratom Oxycodone

I’m 15 hrs no kratom, was at about 10gpd, I have gabapentin, clonidine, dextroamphetamine xr, and ondanzetron, Clonazepam, and diazepam. How do I get off this kratom without just subbing something else (in a permanent way fine taking stuff for a few days) what regimen would yall recommend and would you recommend stopping or tapering the kratom powder/tea??
 
I would definitely avoid using DXM unless you're working with scrippies. I don't think there's enough data about combining DXM and kratom, especially the new extracts.

I'm one of the very few who uses kratom for fun - replaces alcohol on the weekends. While I have been addicted to heroin and oxy that was over a decade ago and not for very long - only snorting.

If money's not an issue, I advise you get some red extract and some 7-oh extract. I use website name of word stardust combined with name of this very plant we're talking about in this dang virtual dusty library of sassafras.....(dotcom).

Less can be more and when I take too much kratom the side effects can be similar to opiate withdrawals as far as mood goes. That's why you should step up doses slowly and use a wall calendar to keep track. Try to exercise and keep track on the calendar.

Contrary to what my former 18 year old self thought, prayer can actually help. Even if there is no God and you're just talking to yourself like a rabble-rousing roustabout, it can change your train of thought, mental shelf space, etc.
 
A few months ago I was made aware of the fact that a significant number of kratom samples contained significant levels of various heavy metals. In fact I note that in the US, a bunch of small labs have set up in business testing kratom and testing for heavy metals is often offered at extra cost.

I was asked to look at GC-MS/NMR data on a sample and the very first thing I pointed out was that the time and date were not provided so it's impossible to know if the instrumental analysis was on the same batch as the vendor was selling.

So you need to be a bit careful who you trust. There are BLers who have been using kratom for years and pointing out the differences between strains. To maintain a realistic sock-puppet for years would take a lot of effort so those people strike me as trustworthy.

While I'm at it, in the UK kratom was banned after a bunch of people overdosed on a product sold to them. It turned out that someone had ended up with some low quality kratom and decided that cutting some O-DMT (O-desmethyl tramadol) would solve the issue. I've only read of that one case. North America seems to have much more competition and much more informed users so it's likely a lot safer there.

I hope it works out for you. I've been prescribed Oxycontin for years and if kratom works, I would love to not NEED to take pills every day.
