Are you more attuned to your senses after kratom cessation? Scott started off on powder ten years ago and began using extracts in more recent years. After many quit attempts, and his drug use escalating to poly-substance binges, Scott hit a bottom at an ER visit after using meth. A foreign trip to an overseas city was how he was able to stop consuming kratom in the fall of 2024.

Defining what sober is for yourself, based on your improved quality of life, not by what you are abstinent from. Kendall is a middle school teacher who was previous addicted to tramadol. He first developed a bad habit with extract capsules, which he quit, then relapsed taking the kava-kratom tonics. Kendall is an example that not every case of disordered kratom use is severe, and not every relapse results into a spiraling decent into oblivion. But kratom has abuse potential and is not for everyone, especially if you are hiding it from a loved one such as a spouse, and you are lying about and overspending on your kratom consumption.

How to cope when life keeps on "life-ing". Jahred hails from Hawaii, where he quit a 7-year addiction to powder (his first five or so years) and then at the end, mixing in extracts. With the help of a significant other, he tapered from June 2024 from about 42 grams per day to about 8 grams per day, when he jumped off cold turkey - aided by several comfort prescriptions from his doctor.

Nolan and Desiree talk about their personal timelines feeling better after quitting kratom. Mark is an expat from Europe living in Thailand as a digital nomad. He was surprised by how an unassuming kratom tea product he bought created a physical dependency and he had a hard time quitting during 2024. English is not his native language, but his story gives us insight how kratom is used by non-Americans in places outside of United States.
