    It depends a bit on your dose and dosing frequency. And of course varies between people. But if you're already sweating, the withdrawal is probably already setting in.

    For me, about 15 hours sounds about right, that's about when I started getting antsy and skin beginning to crawl, at least when I would stop after heavy use. But that was like 50g spread out over 3 or 4 times a day and I see you're at <20g per day in 2 doses. If you're like most people, you should know by the 24 hour mark.

    You're not quitting though? Is this your first time with kratom withdrawal? It's not something to scoff at, it can really suck, but I see you're also familiar with other opiates. You're right that the withdrawal shouldn't be near as bad as heroin and definitely not as bad as subs withdrawal but it's still no walk in the park.

    I'm also curious though, if you don't mind sharing, you switched over from suboxone to kratom when they cut you off the former? (Which is fucking e criminal by the way. Evil fuckin bastards to that.) How was that? How long were you in withdrawal from subs when you got on kratom?

      Ive been through kratom withdrawal before. Been doing this opiate thing a long time. i just was never sure when the withdrawals truly set in.

      I feel like it is probably about 15 hours when ill start getting mild symptoms though

      How was sub withdrawal? Not nearly as intense as Heroin or Fent withdrawal. It was just longer with more sweating. A step up from kratom withdrawal as far as intensity of symptoms. The bad part was how long it was.

      At least 3 weeks for that bullshit to be 90% gone.

      yeah this nurse was a woman i dont want to call her a bitch, but she was... and a rude rude piece of shit. She asked me a bunch of shit thats not her business and then basically told me to suck it up grab a blanket and check into detox.

      that shit is patient abandonment as far as im concerned
