Residual Sub Withdrawal or Kratom Withdrawal?

Hi everyone,

I've been on Suboxone for about 2 years and had my last dose 30 days ago; jumped at 8mg. I waited 3 days and took kratom. Up until Sunday night I've taken 2 daily doses of Kratom to help with w/d's and also took nothing for 6 of those days.

The kratom worked very well and compared to the days earlier in the month when I was on nothing the w/d's now are not that bad. I'm not sleeping and am getting RLS. My question, am I still in the end stages of sub w/d or am I having these symptoms b/c I didn't taper off kratom? Any help would be appreciated!
 
...I'm in the same damn position. I believe kratom w/d feels a bit different, less of a "flu", more of a headache/ anxiety problem. I know in my case that it is mainly kratom, but residual bupe w/d could also be at play.
 
8mg is a lot to jump from; maybe I should continue it for another week or so at once a day.
