Quitting high dose Kratom habit via taper

Leaving this here for hope, posted the above and after a slow tapper off Kratom, then small low doses of 7oh (2ml, like 2.5mg), spread out 12 hours a time at the end…then nothing for 24 hours, because of the fast half time of 7oh (92min!), I was well past anything being in my body. 7oh is a partial not full on opiate receptor. I took naltrexone at 5mg, low dose. I was going to use ultra low dose but know my body and what I was feeling like at the 24+ hour nothing mark. No precipitated WD, in fact it’s proven at even Low Dose, 2.5-5mg, naltrexone does the opposite of larger does.
“LDN refers to daily doses of Naltrexone that are within 1 to 5 mg - a tenth of the typical FDA-approved treatment dosage. Studies have shown that naltrexone exhibits paradoxical properties such as analgesia and anti-inflammatory, or antioxidant effects via upregulation of endogenous opioids at lower doses.”

Caution, if dependent, as most likely we are when dosing per day, multiple times a day…this is not for those times!!!!!! U flushed my system and also tapered off Kratom for 4 days, let all the alkaloids come out. The 7oh, although metabolized by Kratom, is one alkaloid…compared to the 40 known in Kratom powder. So I tackled 1 alkaloid, but very very carefully because of how addicting it is and also potential for tolerance increase. But the half life is so incredibly fast, hence we we dose that every 2-3 hours usually. Or feel like we need to I should say. Every 2 hours or less, it eliminates half of the dose. For instance, you do 7.5mg 7oh, 2 hours later, roughly 3.75mg is left, 4 hours 1.875, 6 hours .93….to give reference, in Kratom powder, there is only like .04, not anything but enough to give effect. So you can see that 7.5mg is a lot!!! And some of us, me including we’re doing 30mg per day!!! So that’s the disclaimer. Do not do neltrexone until you do the math with that half life! Best of luck to all, I’ll continue to update. Just wanted to leave some hope, cause sifting through all the forums, we don’t get the final it can be done. I have a vivitrol shot lined up Wednesday so we are doing it
