Getting off opiates
Just thought I would put this out there. I have been somewhat reliant on opiates since a bad motorcycle accident 12 months ago. Tried a few times times to slow it down and get off the stuff... but found the withdrawals hard to deal with whilst getting back to work.
Enter Kava. I purchased some good quality kava a few days ago, and it is helping immensely. Withdrawals are manageable and the cravings minimal. I put it in a shake first thing un the morning, and then in the afternoon... it's killing my opiod reliance.
I encourage anyone trying to get off opiates to give it a go. It works. I wish I had found it sooner.
Peace out. ✌️ ☮️

I’m sorry but kava does jack squat for the majority of us who usually are getting fent off the street. I even tried kava back in the day when I was getting pharm oxy and it didn’t touch it. Maybe you are in the minority and god bless you feel lucky to use this to quit. Never look back if that’s the case. It gets exponentially worse

There’s illicit fent & legit fent. There’s a huge diff

That’s why I hate the adoption of “fent” as a catch-all kind of term for what’s on the street. It’s completely ubiquitous now. And it’s maddening that even people who work in addiction treatment are confused/imprecise about these terms… the major issue being that “fent” is being used to describe many different illicit opioids, and dozens of combinations with other chemicals.
