Not FF but extracts & 7oh...preparing to quit CT and I need all the tips! (Please 🙏)

First timer here. Where to start...Im in my 30s, mom of 3 and wife. I work full time and even have a side business. I was put on Tramadol by my rheumatologist like 8 years ago & I took it for like 3 years. I hated the idea of being reliant on a drug (oh the irony) so I did research and heard Kratom can help with quitting opiates. So one day I took the last tramadol and the next day I took powdered kratom. No wds! I was so happy that I found an "all natural" alternative to drug. HA. Took powder for a while and tried extrcts. Bad idea. They made me productive! Motivated...energized. but now it's to the point that I don't really feel like I have any benefits taking them. Just staving off the WDs day by day.

I am really excited to quit, but also terrified. I feel so depressed and lethargic when I'm not taking them. But I remember a time before all this when I didn't take anything and still enjoyed life and had energy & happiness. Right now it feels like that'll never happen again. Please tell me that's just my addled brain right now...and that happiness and energy does come back when you quit?

Tips for mitigating the WDs? I am a mom of 3 so being out of commission for days isn't exactly possible.

I'm hoping posting here will give me someone to hold me accountable. Thanks if you got through all this!

I take no pwdr currently, just extracts. Like 3 a day? I only just heard of 7OH, so I've only had a few of those.

I'm ready to get healthy for my babies. They don't know I'm sick but I KNOW.
