They literally just switched it to something else. If you’re on gabapentin for anything off-label (anxiety, bipolar disorder, ect) then, congrats, you’re a victim of the opioid crisis!
Not to mention all the abandonded addicts held captive by their own country’s medical system. I know people that are being denied help because a doctor prescribed them something that makes them a red flag patient. They didn’t want to be an addict you told them it was their only hope!
Please ignore me I’m manic rn
For anybody looking to get off opioids, kratom can definitely help the withdrawal symptoms. It’s the only thing I’ve seen help a friend of mine who tried several times.
There’s a lot of kratom types and brands, apparently, so do some research first!
Edit: I ran this by her, she said to also research delivery methods (powder, cap, or disk(?)), and dosage, before starting.
kratom saved my ass completely. i wish I had discovered it earlier in my life.
Yeah, I honestly thought my friend was going to wind up dead (multiple car wrecks while nodding, at least one OD), but it’s been one of the great pleasures of my life to see her get clean.
I’m glad it worked for you too!
