    So much of treating opioids is just replacing the fent for subs it's not really all that helpful. I fully support kratom for people coming off them, even medical marijuana if that helps too. I've also seen studies that psychedelics are helpful in resetting the addiction centers of the brain.

      I have had success in lowering my use with both Salvia and low doses of Ayahuasca home preps. Never a visionary dose but an insightful one.. I also do not drink. Iboga is the one touted as the best for hardcore addicts. I have a sub clinic two blocks from my house but I haven't given up yet. Those replacement meds (Suboxone and Methadone) get you hooked on something harder than Kratom.

            The closest I've come to it was when my cat got put on it for his tummy issues and it fucked him right up, his eyes were saucer shaped and he was quiet as a mouse. I really feel for those struggling with opioids there's not a lot of good options, alcohol is bad too though as you can seize up if you withdrawal.

              I've taken the Rxd bupe formulated for a cat before. She was over her injury and there were a lot of oral syringes left and I put it in OJ.

              My last cat got Rxd gabapentin which I also take and didn't ever give him one. The vet only wanted it to sedate him, because even as an old cat he could fight the vet well.

              I said fuck it and made them drug him. I didn't wanna do it. I gave him his steroid meds but didn't wanna give him psychoactive meds
