Using Kratom to withdrawal from suboxone

[TheUltimateEye]

So this is my first post and i thought i'd come here to ask since this board is filled with so many knowledgeable people. As the title suggests, does this make any sense? I'm only on 4mg a day of sub right now and am halfway through weening completely off. This has been a very slow taper coming from 8mg. I know people that could never just get to that end point even being on say .25mg a day of sub. Kratom has piqued my interest because it's not an opiate per se but produces a similar euphoria. I'd just be looking to use it for a week or so until the bupe is out of my system. Thinking of either trying that or sucking it up and getting off subs the normal way. Thoughts?

I have heard about lots of people doing this, with varying results all the way from "it worked fantastic and eliminated my WDs" to "it didn't really do much" to "it worked but now I have an addiction to kratom". Try doing a search of the whole forums and see how people used kratom to treat opioid withdrawals. There should be some good detailed threads with more info that I can quickly provide here.
