Withdraw,is not an option?

There is no way to avoid WD symptoms when coming off long term opaite usage, feeling uncomfortable both physical & emotionally its just part of!
For me personally, ive had many, many severe hangovers that have lasted a couple days, taken so many pills causing nausea and vomiting time and time again! As I look back on all the times I've been sick, a few days/week/month of WD symptoms doesn't even come close to how sick I've been all this years.
I used "pills"pain killers to kill pain both physical & emotional pain, I just didn't want to feel anything! I succeeded in doing that, plus lossing my family, my money, my motivation and much much more!
Just my opinion only here, it's just to easy to get a pill for a symptom of sleeplessness, a pill for anxiety, a pill for this a pill for that! It's the pills I was to easy the discomfort until I found the opaite solution that cured it all.
So, as we all go through our journey just keep in mind it wouldn't be easy but im gonna remember what all I did to make sure I had my fix every day and that wasn't easy either but I didn't it everyday!
Godspeed everyone & Merry Christmas!

We are going to wd no matter what.  Adding another mood altering drug like kratom to the mix doesnt make sense to me.  We have a guy on here who got addicted to immodium and had a heck of a time trying to straighten his body and mind out.

Exactly, that was my main point! Everyone so worried about feeling bad for such a short period compared to the the results and overlooking how many times of feeling bad because of drugs. I don't wanna go through WD to feel better but I'll kill myself to get high! It's just my own presective on myself!

Have you ever tried kratom?  I have seen many people switch to this and then wean themselves off of it in a MUCH easier way.  It is a natural opioid, does not test positive for opiates, but can still give you side effects like constipation and you will withdraw from it, bt nowhere near the same way.  Immodium AD is also something I have heard helps with withdrawals.  Dextromethorphan is another thing that can make the process easier.  There are many nootropics and suppliments on the market that can be very beneficial too, its just a google away.
