Cheers for info. In terms of usage didnt you or someone else say that it doesnt cause cravings like other drugs? I mean its all very well and good saying only do a cpl times a week but when you're high often the rules seem like a ridiculous precaution and before you know it you are kicking yourself for getting carried away. was like that with stims but im a noob to downers so wouldnt know how it is on that front. I know ive read that kratom is good for it not producing cravings like other drugs. As ive said tho in the past self control hasnt been a prob for me.
Also does it have a hangover of sorts if you overdo it? I think thats a good thing as it would ward me against wanting to do it all the time or overdoing it. I dont mean the naesea or whatever in a single dose but like a next day hangover? and can it be avoided thru moderate usage? like how with beer you can have two and not feel it the next day but more than that is pushing it. Thats one reason i hate benzoes in that any dose would leave me feeling like a zombie for all the next day.

Its good that you are worried about addiction. However if you can use kratom maybe 2 or 3 times a week never consecutive days. I really doubt you would develop a strong physical addiction. It took me about 2 weeks of daily use to feel the physical withdrawal. But for me, dealing with it is better than worrying about what day it is and when I can take some next.
The withdrawal is aches/pains/runny nose/extreme extreme fatigue for me. Absolutely zero motivation to do anything. Any GABAergic takes a lot of it away. So if you did get to the point where you were physically dependent. You could use benzos for 2 days/ then maybe phenibut for 2 days. Or you could just taper.
As I said its good that you are afraid as it does have a withdrawal that is no picnic. But I really think you are overestimating the time and the severity of the withdrawal.
Oh and Kava can help with withdrawals too, there is a thread discussing the best way to take kava. I'm still new to kava as well and find that the best results are with the regular ground root. Extracts seem to only last for 20-30 mins for me. I have done kava multiple times and only one time did I get this overwhelming drunk feeling that I had never gotten before. That was when I would just put the ground root powder in my lip and let it sit there like a pinch of tobacco. There are better ways with making it into drinks and such I just haven't tried yet.
