Opioids I conquered KRATOM with Suboxone!

Um... Suboxone for Kratom withdrawal i.m.o. is major overkill bro even if u used a SUPER LOW DOSE of it but that is only way i can even see it being feasible but if your Kratom habit is bad enough to need it I doubt u could even maintain at a low enough dose to make it not over-kill And a very real problem of having A worse Physical Dependence Withdrawal occuring.

I'm already on opioids permanently for serious chronic pain. Currently it's Sub. So boosting from 5 or 6 mg to 8 mg didn't really matter. It is profoundly easy to taper sub dose. I could zoom back to 4 mg a day if I wanted to, but I have found a feeling I like at 8. The pain control is similar to any other dose of sub, but the slight feeling of well being is more pronounced, although after a week at 8 the "high" went away. I'll slither back to 4 at some point. Glad to finally leave the Kratom alone. I am sleeping much better.
 
Withdrawal update: I'm clean from kratom, and have found that I can occasionally use it and then not use it in the days to follow! This could make a (cfzRX edit) last ten years or more if I were to decide to buy some top shelf stuff :) Maybe a nice white elephant whatever the heck the kids are using these days,lol
 
So I raised my dose of SUB from 6mg to 8mg to help kick the kratom. A month after quitting kratom I dropped my dose down to 7mg for a week, then 6. I thought it would be a piece of cake, because in the past I had done this with no prob, even dropped down to 3mg! But this was all with the help of kratom.

Last week as I had stayed around 6mg for a week or two I was hit with shitty sleep, and even a scary nightmare! I have tried one tsp of Super Red Bali right before bed and lifted off big time. The pull is there to return to the laughing leaf, but I hesitate, knowing the maddening feeling of hurtling into a costly addiction. At least I have broken the spell of the Kratom. I can take a tsp one night and forget about it for a month.

But addiction is a patient hypnotist.

p.s. I am back at 8mg for 3 days. Anyone else out there using kratom, or sub and going through dose shifts?
