Remember when we were at like day 21 saying we need a break? LOL. I still really need a break from kratom. It’s not working well anymore. 6.5g this morning and 7.5g in the pm. Pain was excruciating in the afternoon. I went at like 3:20. Sleep was OK last night. I was thinking today about Flexiril. I would have to commit to quitting for that. It has such a long half life. I would basically Flexiril. myself to sleep for a day and a half. I haven’t done that in years. I very much dislike it. But if I went back on the kratom, it would create an interaction because of the long half life and they both use the same liver enzyme. I don’t know how I accomplish it. Turning straight to another drug might get me off the kratom, but will create its own issues. And withdrawals will never go away. I’m 1 week from these injections. Can I even make it? My dose will soon be up to 8.5g. The side effects are strong and unpleasant. As usual, I don’t know what to do. Stuck on this junk, can’t get off, can’t live without it. Pain is just too bad. The back brace isn’t helping anymore. It’s crushing my stomach and guts and is very unpleasant. I’m wondering if my feeling good for those 3 days was just a readjustment to the kratom after the weird week prior.
