Special episode on "relapse". After four years of kratom use, Alison hit a bottom with a $100 per day kava-kratom tonic habit. She went to 30-day rehab after her child saw her throwing up outside her car one day. Alison is now 53 days kratom free, doing 90 meetings in 90 days, both AA and online kratom recovery meetings.
Relapse Quote: "I am not defined by my relapses, but by my decision to remain in recovery despite them." Don't quit quitting!

Special episode on PAWS (Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome). Nick B. discusses his three ibogaine treatments to address his kratom addiction. Nick on confronting the root of addiction: “Odds are your drug addiction comes from some sort of trauma… really try to focus on your traumas. It took me a long time to realize that.” On not doing it alone: “Ask for help. It sucks. It’s embarrassing… but I can guarantee you will feel so much better after you ask for help. So much better.”

Christine and Libby talk self-care. Jasmine interviews Lily, who became addicted to one kratom-kava tonic a day. With mounting health effects, a growing short fuse, and making mistakes (and still feeling confident) at work, Lily tapered off kratom with the help of Kambo, secretions from the giant green monkey tree frog, as a form of natural healing medicine.
