Mild doses of kratom do wonders for curbing my urge to drink, I don't think that effect is universal though.
I definitely recommend kratom on my drug comm a lot. While it can be an addiction in itself, it's probably the least damaging addiction I've come across. If it weren't for the withdrawal at higher doses, I'd say it's done less harm than weed in my life.
I will say though, I'm generally happier with my actual prescribed MAT meds than I was with kratom. Less cravings for alcohol nowadays, plus discovering 7-OH kinda ruins kratom. Never touch 7-OH, I can't say anything good about it.
I've never really had the urge to overindulge or try the concentrates because I get nauseous / drowsy pretty easily past a large scoop of the powder a couple times a day.
Good, I tried 7-OH cause I have the urge to try everything once and it's not normal kratom. It's not even a normal extract. I would compare 7-OH more to a shortly lived opiate than powder kratom, it will be the reason kratom ends up getting banned
Sure! If you're interested in medication for quitting drinking I can recommend the Sinclair Method route using naltrexone to taper alcohol use. It's a cheap medication if you get it generic I believe.
I actually tried that, I had a bad reaction to Naltrexone though so I ended up getting on a different med. Know a lot of people who succeeded with Sinclair method though!
A community which focusses on improving yourself. This can be in many different ways - from improving physical health or appearance, to improving mental health, creating better habits, overcoming addictions, etc.
While material circumstances beyond our control do govern much of our daily lives, people do have agency and choices to make, whether that is as "simple" as disciplining yourself to not doomscroll, to as complex as recreating yourself to have many different hobbies and habits.
This is not a place where all we do is talk about improving "productivity" (in a workplace context) and similar terms and harmful lifestyles like "grindset". Self-improvement here is intended to make you a generally better and happier person, as well as a better communist, and any other roles you may have in your life.
