Why do Opiate Cravings come back all of a sudden???? [View all]

I've been able to lower my drinking down buy just forcing myself NOT TO BUY the stuff for the home - and all is good.

However, ever since I quit Kratom (my wean-off drug for Opiates) I have these random opiate cravings, a voice in the back of my head reminding me how wonderful an opiate glow is - to breathe in deeply and feel your whole body melt into butter.

I don't miss Alky and even though I allow myself it once a week, sometimes I skip that preferring sobriety.

But opiates - whole different ball of wax.

Every day, it seems, my thoughts lead back to the big bad O.

And I've been off Kratom for almost 6 months now!!!
