Thank you sooo much for your courage and hope you provided me ! I'm only on day 5 I quit March 13, 2024... Emotions are a rollercoaster, so is anxiety and sleep is better with magnesium. I'll make it to my sobriety in no time
You are very welcome! Thank you! I noticed that the physical symptoms are hard at first, but we have some emotional growing to do as well. You are doing it brother! Develop good habits, and the rest will come with ease. 🤜🤛
I'm going thru it right now man, its brutal. I came up with what is in my opinion, the most accurate definition of what the withdrawal feels like: "Complete deprivation of emotional & physical well being". It feels like the rug's been pulled out from under your feet, like there's a bottomless void within my being that can't be filled. Its no joke. I know it will pass but ffs, time is going so slow it feels like an infinity. Anyways, always love seeing a new vid from you man! Glad you're still sober and killing it 💪. Really inspires me bro
Yeah brother you hit the nail on the head! You do have to disregard your emotional and physical wants for some time. Your body is crying out for kratom. And you know you feel better if you take some, temporarily! But we’re too strong! The day we decided to quit, we became stronger. And not even our body and emotions can control our decisions! I love it! Thank you for watching! 🤜🤛
You pretty much nailed it ! I’ve been telling everyone I’m going to stop but it’s been another year Only made it 17 hours cold turkey thinking of taking Vicodin for two days
Keith your the first person that has helped me stay strong through the beginning of my kratom recovery how your documenting your experience is just hitting different. God bless you man seriously thank you ❤️
Hell yeah, thanks for the video. Exactly what I needed to see today! Already started my taper, but still kicking that can by procrastinating the true drop. Not anymore. Thank you!
you are helping me soo much not falling in the kratom addiction, i am taking kratom just when i have a stressful situation or at the parties to manage my social anxiety i was taking it for couple of months now, but now, i am thinking stopping it, to become this person without it, thank you for sharing and for your motivation
“Legitimately try.” That’s gold, brother. I’m seeing what you mean. Like I commented on the Day 29 video, I’m so close to being a month in and I see it.
It’s good that you know you need to quit badly. Start telling yourself that you’re done. That you’ll never use again once you quit. That it’s garbage. Convince yourself. It really is garbage. Change your mindset, and your body will follow.
White is the best for energy and good mood.white is best but the green strains are also good for mood energy and pain.i don't care for red strain it makes u sleepy.i only llike red at night
I think u mean “the lord helps those who help themselves”. Thanks for the vids. Still haven’t quit but watch all your vids, and that day is soon. I’ve quit WAY worse stuff before, just gotta MAKE THAT JUMP!
@@StrongKeithJ thanks bro. You’re a good man Keith. Keep it going with vids. U can stray from the kratom topic. I think you’re good at motivating/influencing people in a positive way. Keep talkin bro.
@@SecularReasons do you feel rewarded when u accomplish something, especially something hard? That’s the gift of god. THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU my friend.
Yeaa bro!! Still no kratom since Dec. 9th! No cravings at all just decided to be done with it that evening. The Mental Clarity I Experience is such a Trip in itself.m that mental brain fog was real. Thank you Keith bro you was there for me. And similar timeliness too I appreciate you homie!!! Been seeking deeper issues within myself lately since.. still work to do. Thanks Again
We will all break through brotha! At our own time. People did it way before me. And people will do it after me, including you. I’m not stronger, I just took the jump first.
Great to hear!!! I'm down to 8-10 gpd and fixing to drop that to 6-8 gpd and stay on that for a couple weeks and then drop my dose again. Kratom has helped me through some stuff but it's come to a point if i don't cut back at least or all out quit because I don't want this to become an addiction to get off of something else lol getting this under control before it has me under it's control
Love your videos man, i’m about to quit tonight. I’m in the military and im in pretty good shape, workout twice a day almost everyday, do you think that’ll help with the PAWS? Once the acute stuff is over? i’m worried i’ll be stuck in a funk for a long time, been on kratom for two years now.
Exercise and nutrition I think will do wonders! But yes, you will go through some funk regardless brotha. But PAWS is way more manageable with working out. It seems to just go away one day tbh. At least in my case. Stay busy!
thanks a lot for this man!! u helped me so much saying i can do the same thing without kratom. i know exactly how u feel but after 8 long years of using this (im 29) u just feel is it ever gonna end and possible to enjoy life without. i trust u, thanks i was at 18-25 gpd now tapering down to 8 already. should be off in couple months i cant let it go to waste this time thanks to ur videos also.
yea im still tapering. i was at 18-25 grams per day for 8 years and used a bunch of other drugs at the same time, always weed and a lot of amphetamine etc but kratom is the hardest to kick. im finally at 8 grams tomorrow 7.5 grams. now my mindset is good i can finally taper i never made it this far and im off all other drugs too. thanks for making new videos you have no clue how u help me. and this may strenghten ur process too, its already a rollercoaster for sure but to go cold turkey like u did and work man i dont know how u do it esp at 60 gpd habbit.@@StrongKeithJ
Thank you for the inspiration! You’re doing it! Yeah once I made the decision to quit for good, it didn’t matter what my schedule was, I was quitting! Plus I had my wife by my side to help through everything. She is an angel. Not everybody has that, so I am blessed!
Yea, u say such incredible things sometimes, like you just dont let the bad days get to you, i know its so like common sense but to hear someone that goes tru the same thing say these things, its powerful man, it really means something, like i feel it. Ill keep watching back ur videos whenever i need to strenghten myself and my process.@@StrongKeithJ
That’s awesome!! You’re killing it! Cravings are different for everyone. But convince yourself that you’ll never use it again. Tell yourself that everyday. Not even once will you try it again. You’re done for life. The quicker you grasp that concept, cravings will go away.

@@smithwesson6620 However you need to stop, just stop. Just don’t get hooked on something else.

Thank you brother! Glad to help! Getting strong and maintaining our strength, true strength, is the key! 🤜🤛

🤜🤛 Yeah that’s huge! Effort is everything!
Proud of you bro
Appreciate you brotha 🤜🤛
Been watching since the beginning...5 months for me
That’s what I’m talking about!!! We did it! We’re doing it! How are you feeling these days??
Been on kratom for over 11 years. Every single day. Last time I quit the depression was unbearable. Trying to taper now.
It’s good that you know you need to quit badly. Start telling yourself that you’re done. That you’ll never use again once you quit. That it’s garbage. Convince yourself. It really is garbage. Change your mindset, and your body will follow.
White is the best for energy and good mood.white is best but the green strains are also good for mood energy and pain.i don't care for red strain it makes u sleepy.i only llike red at night
When I was using I would always buy a Tri-blend. Red, white, green mix. For years.
I think u mean “the lord helps those who help themselves”. Thanks for the vids. Still haven’t quit but watch all your vids, and that day is soon. I’ve quit WAY worse stuff before, just gotta MAKE THAT JUMP!
That’s exactly what I mean! Gotta make the jump brother! I’m praying for you.
@@StrongKeithJ thanks bro. You’re a good man Keith. Keep it going with vids. U can stray from the kratom topic. I think you’re good at motivating/influencing people in a positive way. Keep talkin bro.
@jimmylarge1148 so how would you tell the difference between a god helping you and you simply helping yourself?
@@SecularReasons do you feel rewarded when u accomplish something, especially something hard? That’s the gift of god. THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU my friend.
@@jimmylarge1148 how do you know that?
Nice ..I was wondering how long it had been since I used ... thanks for the reminder as always. ✊
You already know brother! 🤜🤛

I forget, did you cold Turkey it? Or taper down?
I went cold turkey. It hurt! Lol
I need to quit badly
I hear that brother.

I'm a week and a half away from 4 months. I get cravings fairly regularly these days. 🫤
Staying strong though.
