Drug info - Using kratom to help with withdrawls

[G_nome]

I tried this thread over on the kratom forum but it didn't seem to garner much attention, so i'm a try it here. Hi, my first post on these forums, but I've been reading for a long time, some very useful info on here. So, anyway. SWIM has been on a 2 month long poppy pod tea binge, he was doing at least 100g daily, maybe more if he wanted to gouch out. He is now on his third day clean from the tea as he wants a break from it for a while, hates to be a slave to a substance. SWIM was on 240mg dihydrocodeine yesterday and the day before, he plans on taking 120mg a day for the next 3 days to hold him, and that's it, all gone! So SWIM was just wondering if it's worth getting some kratom to help with the likely withdrawls he expects when the dihydrocodeine runs dry. And also would like to know how effective kratom is when used like this and if there's any withdrawls from kratom. I know it's habit forming if taken daily, but don't know if there's any actual physical withdrawls like ye get from a true opiate. Any help on this matter would be very appreciated. Oh and SWIM still has half a box of nice poppies left, so the temptation's always there, SWIM says it's a bastard!
