Has anyone had success with this? Im planning on using one teaspoon of bali plain leaf a day for the next three or four days to combat the withdrawals from a 2 week opiate binge from hydro and oxy. Do you guys think i can make it out scotch free after the kratom taper is over with or am i just feeding my receptors to the point of a worse withdrawal when i get off ?
 
Withdrawal from kratom is much easier than opiate withdrawal, if you can get the opiate out of your body while behing on kratom, you should be able to have a mild withdrawal after.
 
Kratom works great for me. I typically take it for 5 or 6 days. I have not experienced any mentionable wd symptoms once I cease the kratom. For me it's very different than methadone or bupe, (I experience wd symptoms upon discontinuing methadone/bupe). However, I recall methadone and bupe being great the first few kicks, then it progressively got more difficult. Kind of like I went to the well one too many times. I wonder if kratom will follow this pattern for me or if it will continue to be an easy thing to jump off of. Right now it's perfect for detoxing from a mild habit and transitioning off of bupe.
