Saved myself with it two destroyed disc's in my back one in my neck not to mention injuries I've accumulated over Years of fighting. I now have epilepsy I can't take alot of pain relievers now, vic destroys my liver even tramadol can send me into seizures but they wanna ban Kratom it's greed that's it plain and simple they can get us addicted to painkillers and let us smoke and drink ourselves to death.

I’ve taken gargantuan amounts of kratom and never had much a side effect besides withdrawal. Kratom is a lifesaver when it comes to pain relief. Way prefer it to pharmaceuticals
@infotainment6830 6 күн бұрын
I’m sorry for your loss. How? I’ve never heard of anyone overdosing on kratom. Kratom is a lifesaver for my headaches and I only take it when I absolutely have to. They don’t prescribe adequate pain medication for people anymore because of the opiate crisis and I know a lot of people who have chronic pain and kratom is the only thing that gets them through.

And it's way less addictive and dangerous. It's a naturally derived product, so you get an inherently cleaner supply of it compared to tianeptine, which is synthetic. In my home state, we just implemented some regulations on kratom, but they're reasonable. Like no selling to kids, verifying purity and quality, and ensuring people are selling and consuming it responsibly.

I hope they don’t get rid of Kratom. It helped me greatly to wean myself off of painkillers. It’s all natural with no additives, and it can act as a tremendous mood stabilizer. I don’t know what this guy took, but it wasn’t Kratom

If you take to much youre gonna have a bad time. People need to be educated on what they use.an example is how many people do damage to there livers when they take painkillers like Tylenol for a hangover.
