If you guys are having trouble tapering normally try this

I can never taper normally. I always just end up back at my normal dose. However I am able to just deal with a day or two of cold turkey after calling out from work. Whenever I do want to taper I use my weekend to just not dose at all and try and tough it out. By the 3rd day I can take 1/2th of my normal dose and feel almost fine. Withdrawal is still there but it's much more manageable. You can repeat this over many weeks until you get to a point where you can cold turkey from a much lower dose.

Ya I think these are called crash tapers. I just did a huge one and it worked well. But I didn’t go cold Turkey like you, I just ate lipo vit C and black seed oil and bromazolam and just instantly took my dose to say less than half. I’m just about adjusted now where I don’t need much vit c or black seed oil anymore

How much Kratom were you on when you did the huge crash taper? Do you take capsules or powder? Over how many days did you do it? How often and how much Lipo V C did you take? Thanks!! I'm trying to taper with Lipo V C too!

OK, so I’m gonna just give you the raw truth. This is definitely not me suggesting you follow my protocol. To be honest in the end, I found it unsafe and I should’ve followed everyone suggestion. But this is what I did.:

I got 25 bromaz bars from a dark place (you get it… don’t ask me anymore it’s not hard)

I ordered a gigantic bottle of life OC from Amazon. I also ordered the 90 count black seed oil from Amazon. Both brands are recommended on the credit and kratom sub. It’s easy to find.

Every morning, and every night you take two capsules of black seed oil.

Basically, every hour or every three hours, however you feel, but all the time, I dosed vit C. Like 2-5 pills but that’s like 3-5 grams something like that. Just take a shit ton. I had no I’ll effects.

I took small but pretty frequent doses of bromaz. I May have a rebound we’ll see… that’s why I don’t suggest the bromaz.

Now I am trying to just take a quarter at night and then skip a night or so and hope for no rebound. So far so good to be honest but we’ll see. Yesterday I went over 24 hours without bromaz and felt kind of better without it actually. But of course it’s addicting so I took more this morning. But I’ll try and skip my afternoon Kratom dose today because of that.

I’m keeping a journal with the exact dosages that I’m taking morning afternoon at night. I use capsules an hour so that I know the exact amount I am taking and I cannot lie or cheat as easy.

Before my crazy drop, I was just eating kratom like crazy. I was eating it a lot of times by the teaspoon, but also many times by the tablespoon. I took it all the time every few hours. So that’s the problem. I really don’t know how much I was taking but a fucking lot (for my standards). Maybe 15-20 a day?

Honestly, the whole thing would’ve been pretty damn easy but I did it during an MDMA come down and also. I’m such an idiot for not spacing those two things out.

I instantly went down to about 8 g a day, and just use the supplements and benzos to curb the withdrawal. But to be honest, there wasn’t too much withdrawal at all. It’s not so bad.

I am hoping now to take it one or 2 g a week. Continue to use the supplements and then jumped 0. Can’t wait to get off.

So I’ve been stable at 8 g in my journal for six days. I feel fine and stable now, I don’t really get high anymore, but that doesn’t bother me because I’m sick of it anyways. So this morning instead of eating 3 g I ate 2 1/2. You just have to have the motivation to slowly bring it down and get it over with.

Any method that ends with you off kratom is a good one. I’d make a caveat about this as a full method which is if you don’t let your body stabilize on the doses then you’re possibly going to pay the price down the road with longer term PAWs like symptoms

Megadose Vitamin C if you want to taper or ct the Kratom. I’m using it right now on my pharma Perc withdrawals and it’s going really well. No withdrawals at all. I just did the preloading phase of Vitamin c and did the jump CT. I just popped 4,000 mgs every hour of Vitamin C and it worked for my big habit of 270-300 mgs a day of Perc 30s everyday for a year. Only acute withdrawals I have was insomnia and minor body aches. Nothing you can’t handle.

For insomnia may I use z quil ?

I’ve never used it. But you can try it out

Active ingredient in ZzzQuil is diphenhydramine which is known to increase symptoms of restless legs in some people.

Warning: It's best to avoid using antihistamines (diphenhydramine, dimenhydrinate, hydroxyzine etc.) such as those found in Benadryl, Dramamine, NyQuil, Unisom, and Tylenol PM. While they can produce drowsiness under normal conditions, they are well known for exacerbating Restless Leg Syndrome, which will make your insomnia worse, not better

after a month of tapering my tolerance in half, I took a heroic dose of mushrooms about 36 hours before I decided to rip the bandage off. No comment or advocacy
