Sticking to taper

Hi,
Been addicted/dependent to a few things over the years. Kicked everything else, last one to go was phenibut (mainly because I've abused it so much that i don't get anything from it apart from sedation)
Now in kratom withdrawal and the RLS is horrible but, this is about my 5th attempt at kicking it for good. Every time I got through it I only last a few weeks then persuade myself I will get some just a treat and use sparingly but then end up taking up to 40gpd as time goes on. I know I'm gonna have to pay the piper later but I still don't taper.
Have ordered some which should arrive in the next day or two and am planning to taper down by 0.2gpd.
I realise as substance go this isn't a Biggie and it keeps me off harder stuff but I'm so pissed off with my self control.
 
Hey bud

Sorry to hear about the relapse so to speak but I believe it will happen almost everytime. If you get off or clean from your DOC then just having a little later ( with that reward mentality ) always or 9/10 end in relapse.

But yeah, start a taper again and then when you kick it again then rather put that stuff to bed, if you know what I mean. Best of luck

As for it not being a biggie, if it's an addiction to a substance then it's always a biggie regardless the substance
 
If you can't quit entirely you have to go for the lowest doses possible. Or take nothing.

When you are ready it's called jumping. Right.

When you are ready to jump off you stop.

You have to.

You shouldn't do so much or such heavy dosing. Nothing good is ever going to

come out of it.

But you know what ... I actually think that the less you do the more better you are going to feel. Much better. k

Keep going four steps forward one step back. But keep going you got this !!! 🌻
