I am someone who has had experience in this area and wanted to share all of the negative experiences I personally had as well as some of the positives. My goal is not to sell anything or mislead anyone. Kratom is available in most states if you are 18+!!
Kratom is currently a legal in many countries plant which grows native to South East Asia & is related to the coffee tree. In this video i explain exactly what Kratom is, what the dangers are surrounding its use, and how people with chronic pain (& more) have been using it to help them.
Note: This video has been created for education and harm reduction. These videos exist to help people be safe through properly educating them on safe use and on potential dangers. We also explain to the viewer what can happen when you are careless (and just how severe the consequences can be) with hopes they do not make the same mistakes them selves.
Hey guys! I hope you can learn something from this and make an informed opinion on whether to try kratom or not. Thanks for watching and being here. I love you

Kratom has been a game changer for me. I’ve completely stopped drinking alcohol and have zero depression and anxiety.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💯
Switched one drug to another lol well done
@@EazyDuz18 but the clown here is none other than you my friend
@@johngarrison7931 That made no sense but I'd expect that from a drug addict
@@johngarrison7931 that’s what i’m saying bro like no fucking shit your not gonna be sad anymore if you bussin all day 😂 they say they depressed free but take their kratom bag away for a week and watch how quick they realize the depression never left
Just wanted to say kratom helped me quit a 12 year methadone addiction👊👊👊👊
Alfredo Canchola that’s awesome!! Thank you for sharing!
Please can you tell me more about what amount of methadone you were on and how much kratom did you need! I'm on 60 MLS of methadone now and I want to give it a go
Please help me with what you can
@@jamiegrieve5875 i was on 180 mgs but im 255 lb not a little guy but i did a taper for awhile down to 30 mgs then i bought 2 different strains white indo or white maeng da for daytime and Red maeng da or Red bali for bed time.The doses depends on yourself its a trial and error. Also you really have to want to get off methadone for yourself and i honest to god went through no withdrawls.With the kratom i stopped at 30mgs cold turkey.Good Luck and let me know how its going.💪💪💪💪
@@alfredocanchola4800 yes I relapsed after being ten years clean and I'm absolutely fucked off with it right i will check some websites for prices and get back to you
Kratom took the needle out of my arm
How do you know what dose to take. I have China red kratom and need to know how much to dose I need
Powerful statement right there!
Ditto
Kratom has helped me in my recovery, also. But don't give it so much credit. YOU took the needle out of your arm! Kratom certainly helps but kratom didn't cut all ties with toxic people, kratom didn't delete your dealer's number, kratom didn't go to meetings or whatever, kratom doesn't do the most difficult parts of recovery. You did all that hard work and you deserve all the credit. I hope you and everyone else out there stay healthy!
As someone who abused pain pills. Kratom saved my life. And the withdrawals from kratom are nothing compared to opiate withdrawal.
I found a simple way of stopping taking kratom after taking it three times a day for a year after my failed back surgery. I simply did what all doctors tell you to do when getting off any medication. I weaned over a period of a month taking a little less every day, then every other day. I had almost no withdrawal symptoms. Now I take it on days when my body hurts...I’m almost 70 and things sure hurt as you age. It’s great for pain, anxiety, depression and motivation so using it twice a week or so has been perfect. Even when quitting coffee you have to wean or you get a horrible headache...it’s no different.
Omg that’s so true coffee will give a headache
Yes i started taking it daily for 10 weeks now after using it a couple times a week for a decade. I'm in the process of reducing dose and get back to my 2-3 times a week again! It's definitely helped but to a poyi don't want to take it daily
Soda will also give you headaches coming off of it. Bleehhh this is such a a true comment
Facts
How much did you wean by? How much were you taking at a time, how much total per day, and how much did you reduce by?
Kratom gave me and my wife a LIFE again
7 years clean
Dustin Henderson that’s amazing congrats!!
@dustin Henderson it true. Love you bae. ❤️
When u do kratom ur not clean. Clean is do nothing anymore
@@Ricochico187 With those standards or principle, you are not clean if you drink a caffeinated beverage or coffee because kratom is a direct cousin to coffee bean.
@@Ricochico187 Kratom has helped us transform our lives. We were horrendous IV addicts and kratom was the only thing to help us ween off of the ACTUAL hard drugs. As long as you don't use it every day or as a crutch, It's beneficial and I'm fairly comfortable in claiming sobriety in that process.
Discovered kratom when the local adult shop had a sign "we have Kratom".. this is now the first time I've been voluntarily alcohol-free for more than a week in like 5 years
same, i used to binge drink but since i started taking kratom i'll have one or two drinks every now and then and i'm done. i just don't have any desire for alcohol now.
THANK YOU
Neo Aaronson - that's awesome, congrats!
Same here. Use to be a functioning alcoholic for a few years. Could not function through my day if I didn't have a few in me. Then I found kratom and it was like I quit over night without even really realizing I hadn't had a drink in few days. That's been almost a year ago now
Hey Guys I'm still sober happy than ever [well I do smoke weed but that's cool] got off of Xanax Klonopin and alcohol. I've been struggling with this for 15 yrs it was like overnight. Thanks for your replies guys!
As I'm reading comments about "I have been clean for X amount of time from X drug/alcohol"....I just wanted to add congratulations! Even if it is just a day sober, WAY TO GO!! As an opiate addict of 7 years, with 3 months completely off fentanyl with the help of kratom, I know exactly how hard it is to get and stay clean. I applaud every single one of you!!! ❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏👏👏
Megan congratulations to you too my love! That's a HUGE accomplishment only another addict can fathom. Keep going girl no matter what happens it's going to be ok without the devils drug♥️♥️♥️
I hope you stay clean. Congrats to you.i am an 20 year opiate addict who has been clean for 2 yeas now. Kratom is a godsend because even 2 years off Subutex I still crave and that kratom keeps my head on my shoulders, I wish you the best.
@@Wrenn180 so you know, I'm an ex heroin user and Subutex. It took me about 12 weeks to feel normal again... It took another month for my energy levels to come back... And I still face cravings 2 years later. That's my truth, I wish you the best.
@@Wrenn180 so... It took me the mother of my 3 kids after 14 years leaving us and having to look at my kids with a secret dependency controlling my life, I got clean for them so trust me when I say I know how hard it is and how hard it is to readjust to life.. I hope you keep pushing if ya gotta talk, vent, clear your heart mind and soul I'm here.
That is a wonderful post and you should be very very proud of yourself.Unfortunately too many people die before they're able to get off opiates. Keep following your path mama and be proud!!!♥️♥️♥️
Been taking kratom almost daily for 8 years. Only recently gave up heroin and pills (6 months) kratom helps. But the true change comes from within.
I hear that in the USA sombody dead frome kratom extractie. He deed it sneving.. you now more??
Patrick Traut that is false. No deaths have been attributed to kratom by itself. People die by mixing kratom and opiates like heroin
@Gengar Jones I'm glad to hear it brother. Stay strong!
Greatness is within - Everlast
You must have spent alot! Where I get it is not cheap!
Kratom is helping me through side effects from cancer treatment!
That is amazing!!!
@Owen Marble on this day at this moment I am. Thank you 🤗✌❤
I've wondered if it would help the side effects of Hydroxyurea. Chemo pills.
@@tommymcweedface229 it won't hurt to try it . Good luck with everything ✌❤
@@rcinelli7056 i will. Just need to find it at an affordable price!
Kratom is one of the most amazing plants in the world.
I bet it is when you wd and your dude is out or you are your script to quick, it just a steady supply addicts have been dreaming of for years, and before you say i don’t know what I’m taking about, I was hooked on oxycodone and tried to go to Kratom and the was honestly worse than the oxy
CrypticRaps also now when they are out of dope they can go buy mit45 or opms until there dude gets more and no drug testing and contract signing at a clinic, they can just switch right back to drugs don’t even have to wait for a blocker to wear off
Jordan Wiser
It's the same with anything, man. You can get addicted to anything. I've been doing it for years and it helps wonders with anxiety. Maybe it doesn't work for everyone. I guess if you get it to get high, maybe it's not the right substance for you.
Jordan Wiser
Just because it worked for me doesn't mean it's not bad for other people.
And just because it didn't work for you doesn't mean it can't help other people.
I understand preferences but I just don't think we can drag anything through the dirt based off opinions and circumstances that many other things could play a factor in.
CrypticRaps, Good Call! In my wife's case, almost everything the docs tried on her for pain either made her itch so bad she was popping 10 - 12 Benadryls a day or it did nothing at all to help! Thank You Sir and God Bless...
I was a recreational user for years. Oxy, hydro, just prescription pills mostly. One day my buddy hit me up and told me he snagged some perc 30s, I told him I wanted to buy a few and we met up, after blasting a half up my nose and instantly becoming so uncomfortably high, I started throwing up out of panic then I lost consciousness. Woke up feeling super euphoric. Idk how long I was out but for some reason it didn’t bother me, probably because I was the highest I’d ever been. Anyway so turns out they were Mexican fentanyl fake M30s. But I didn’t even know about those until I had been doing 1 or 2 of them a day. By that point I was physically dependent. When I learned what they were I decided to stop it all together. Cuz I’m not trying to OD and die. Well that’s when I learned about withdrawal. Oh my lord. I’ve been through some extremely difficult situations in the military but never have I experienced something so mind bending-ly horrible. Physically sick, emotionally destroyed.. a very real sense of hopelessness it was then I realized that I was in-fact a full blown drug addict. I reached out to some close friends and told them what I had done and one of them suggested Kratom. And I’ll tell you what. I’m not sure if I could have stayed strong enough to go through that withdrawal without relapsing. But Kratom literally saved my life.
@@SolutionsWithinI done all kinds of drugs and stupid about it. I can say after finding out about this stuff. I never went back to the street pharmacist or the liquor store. I just smoke my pot and take my kratom. And yeah I have never been better especially after calling on our Creator by name. after finding out that GOD has a name and wants us to use it. th-cam.com/video/t4FIaWBMPCc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fuX3HFLky1rRGZhu
Im glad it helped you, it helps me too, with anxiety,ect.. but it definatley can be hard to quit
@@SolutionsWithin because some people dont want to be dependant on anything.. you do get a tolerance frkm kratom..im working on quitting, just because i want to atleast take a break from it. Ive ben taking it iff and in since 2016, One of the times i quit before, i started again like 6 months later, but i kept it to only a here and there type thing..i wasnt taking it everyday..but, then my girlfriend and i broke up..and i didnt give a shit about much of anything, and i got back into kratom sometimes it was easy to quit, other times it wasnt.
What’s the best way to take it? When you start withdrawing? I just got some kratom extra enhanced 90 count Hulu+ white indo for night. And another pack that was orange for day. They’re capsules I know take three at a time but it it better to take it orally or snort my first time getting kratom and I hope it works for withdrawal
Thanks for sharing your story
Everyone has the same addiction to coffee. Does Starbucks warn you about that latte? Getting off caffeine is hard as hell too. But caffeine has a place. And so does kratom.
People just gotta know that Kratom doesn't just hit the Adrenosine receptors like coffee does. Kratom binds to the opiod , Adrenosine, serotonin, and dopamine receptors. That's why withdrawels can be similar to Suboxone but last longer then opiod withdrawels because it binds to the other receptors and depletes those chemicals. You are definitely right Kratom has its place people need to educate themselves of both the good and the bad and be well educated before they start taking it especially daily.
you're right.
So tired of people saying " Kratom is only as addictive as COFFEE!!" SUCH B.S.!! A person can rightfully say...." Kratom has its place and CAN help people with pain and/or harder addictive ation issues.....AND STILL ADMIT that Kratom IS HIGHLY ADDICTIVE !!!" BOTH STATEMENTS CAN BE TRUE...SIMULTANEOUSLY!!! Kratom withdrawals....SUCK!! IVE kicked it three times!! Yes...I'm an idiot for going back to it....TWICE!! I have 7 bulging disks in my spine and suffer horrible pain....so I CHOSE kratom over doctor issues pain meds....mostly because doctors are clamping down on issuing opiates for pain. I'm NOT saying kratom should be banned....I'm just saying....let's BE REAL about the side effects!!
@@dennismackey1414 we need more people like you giving people the truth sir. Keep the good fight and educating people so they know and can choose wisely. I'm having hell kicking it and I knew better. Mind is mainly because it's such a good bandaid for my depression but physically sucks to get off of and PAWS are no joke as it could take a month or two to feel completely normal. Don't like people saying oh it's just like coffee withdrawels because it effects so many other receptors especially opiods and withdrawels seem to be longer then opiod withdrawal due to the other receptors it effects.
@@brian23221 if you keep your dose low and use it of f and oon it won't be so bad
I would rather kick Kratom a hundred times then methadone once it took me years to get off that roller coaster Kratom is by far the Lesser of the evils
I thank GOD for Kratom! I'm off methadone now ! Thank you JESUS
Hillbilly Grizzly congrats! Same for my husband 🥰

Yo kicking meth is the real shit tho
tHERE IS NO COMPARISON TO OPIATES AND KrATOM, especially methadone. Hell methadone is worse than heroin, especially since you can have it handed to you daily by law as a faux remedy for hard drug addiction. Kratom withdrawals is more comparable to coffee withdrawals.
KRATOM saved me from a 14 year drug addiction
Jacob Collinsworth - awesome man, kratom really is the way to go over harder street drugs - don’t listen to that crap that your trading it for a different addiction, it is very easy to get off kratom unlike any other drug - of course there may be physical withdrawal but nothing you wouldn’t be able to handle if you ever went thru other drug withdrawals

@Issa Nesheiwat well said bro! i agree.
@Jen Crapplo nope hes just being honest. The person just chose to do another drug instead of being sober. He just chose the lesser of two evils. It doesn't matter if you can od or not it gets you high as fuck.
mark anderson get off your high horse!
Never pre apologize for what turned out to be a really informative and well balanced delivery of information.
You did a great job and I got a lot out of it
Thanks so much 🙏🏼
Yes good vid.
But the girl at 10:30 is correct, it is actually pronounced Gra-tom (with an a as in cat sound), not kraytum. It’s a Thai word and It is us westerners that have it wrong. Sounds so screwy when said like that.
Kratom helped me quit a 10 yr heroin habit .... I’ve been on Kratom for a year now and I’m on a slow taper plan that will have me completely off of it by April 2020 . Take the taper slow and easy , the PTSD from opioid withdrawals will mess with your head and also the physical aspect but it is doable .
Edger A Poe 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 keep going. I’m rooting for you
So, How'd you get on man?
What do you mean ptsd from the withdrawal can you explain? Hey and good for you!!
The government or no one should be able to take away ANY kind of natural plant or veggie! This stuff is for all of us! It's just not for them to decide!
Lisa Veal - you are absolutely correct, this natural plant has many benefits especially people who live in pain and don’t want to have to be addicted to horrible prescription opiates
I sell kratom powder 85 dollar/kilo from indonesia free shipping
Well I mean the opium poppy plant is a natural plant or veggie and you take the sap from that.. stick a flame under it for a bit and you have morphine. Add a few more steps in the process and you have heroin. Just saying
Kratom comes from a tropical evergreen tree its not a fuckin plant
@@abdurahmaniskandar6453 85 dollars thats funny becuase my supplier sells it 55 a K with actual testing and lab results on every batch you purchase.
Take your trash somewhere else. Try a local vape store.
You are correct but it's not addiction swapping as much as it's called harm reduction and something we in the United States need to start thinking more about as ways to help people who like to take things throughout the day. Absolutely nothing wrong with ingesting something throughout the day to make yourself feel better, that's what antidepressants do along with numerous other substances . We only live once some people want to experience more pleasure while they're here and they should be have that option as long as you're not hurting no one
Jason Scharrer oooh totally agree with you! I won’t say addiction swapping in the future. You’re correct 🥰. For me, kratom is something I try to take minimally now but my husband is a daily user and without it I don’t know if he could stay away from harsh drugs. I’m 100% for kratom, I was just inspired to talk about some of the negative things I did experience because I watched a video of this girl who made it seem like it’s something everyone should be doing every single day and I feel like it isn’t.
I agree with you, I’ve been a daily kratom user for a little over 3 years and used it to quit Percocet, that being said, what we know is anytime we take something from outside of our body that influence our neurotransmitters, the receptors down regulate to balance out, and what happens if you’re getting less pleasure from everyday life and relying on the substance for pleasure. Kratom is certainly less strong then the other drugs but it still has the same effect when taken daily especially multiple times daily. It’s certainly helped my life with drugs but it might be better to get off eventually, a lot of Ex daily kratom users talk about enjoying music more, working out, and just life in general. For people like us we needed it at a certain time and some with chronic pain, forever. But we all need to be careful with giving it and encouraging other people to use it
I am 57 years old. I have been an addict as long as I can remember! With kratom I have gained control of my benzo and opioid dependency. After 40 years of active addiction, harm reduction is the only option.
Yeah it's no wonder people want to use drugs to make them feel better. I'm not advocating addiction or anything. Just look at all the everyday stresses we have here in this so called free and open society and it's all by design. I mean they want to ban kratom. Are you serious? People that see that and still support their government boggles my mind. People need to get back to nature and simpler ways of living or this society is doomed. Technology will not save us as it will only make things worse. Bad people are in charge and running the system. Wake up
I have been thinking about taking kradom prob spell that wrong but any way I thought about using to get of methadone
My story is the same as yours, almost . I've been on and off kratom for 15 years and you said everything best, totally matches me. I wish I could talk with you more about it. Thanks for the content!! I go by Rick and it's nice to connect with you on this subject.
it helped so much in relieving my anxiety coming off meth. it's a good thing to sometimes turn to, but aware of the consequences, i try to only use it when i really need to. also introduced a rotation of other mood-boosting activities to do some days instead, like exercise, dancing, reading, activities with friends. that way, i just drink it once a week or so when i'm staying in, doing chores, etc. helps me ease into monotonous days.
p.s.: stay safe and keep fighting your demons! i'm very proud of you and you're doing just fine!!! ❤❤
I have extreme anxiety and the dr keep upping my Xanax almost to 6 mgs a day. I’ve been using Kratom for two weeks and already have been using less Xanax
That’s amazing!!
2.5 years ago I was taking 4-5 sticks at a time (well over what I was prescribed), because my tolerance kept getting higher and higher. I quit cold turkey (I don’t recommend that. I was all alone, convinced people lived in my attic, sweating, gross, it was horrible). I was fine for quite some time, but now my panic attacks are coming back. I want to try kratom for this, but I’m so sensitive to coffee, it’s makes me nervous I literally can’t drink a decaf without having major panic (I think I’m allergic to coffee bean). Nice to see it’s helping your anxiety
ShamelessSheamis my husband actually can’t drink coffee because it causes him so much anxiety but he takes kratom no problem! Vietnam is the only one that made me anxious. Try maeng da or Bali! Both super amazing. Remarkable herb is my favorite brand.
Jahlen Johnson I just tried red Borneo about an hour and a half ago. First time ever using kratom. I feel great. Ready for bed. I already know my dreams tonight are gunna be loads of fun, I can just feel it. 4grams
@Eagle Eye bumble bee brand is great
Please read carefully what I'm about to say.
I've been studying pharmacy and psychopharmacology for 20 years now. I'm a sort of a drug nerd and see myself as a psychopharmacology enthusiast. I have at least tried every common substance, pharmaceutical and illicit, and took at least one substance from every drug group in existance.
So I wanted to say that I just can't understand how people still don't get the fact that there isn't such thing as a non-addictive psychoactive drug. Even the filthiest drugs with zero abuse potential like Thorazine or Haldol will produce withdrawal syndrome upon cessation of a long term use. And if the substance is in any way pleasurable, or it helps you get rid of some negative stuff like pain or discomfort, or it helps you psychologically, the withdrawal will be that much worse. Try to understand that our body is a living organism which struggles to maintain its natural state (homeostasis) by default, and when you take a substance that induces changes in your body's chemistry and functioning, it will fight back trying to cancel out those changes. The longer you take the substance, the better and more efficient your body is at resisting its effects by the compensatory mechanisms. That is called tolerance. And when you stop ingesting your substance after long term daily use, those compensatory mechanisms are left unopposed by the drug and they are essentially the exact opposite of the effects that your substance produced. That is called withdrawal. And that's it.
Be it kratom, heroin, Zoloft, Xanax, coffee, cigarettes, Ritalin, Abilify, booze, Depakine, cannabis, Valium, cocaine, Lyrica, Wellbutrin...it doesn't matter. They all produce chemical changes in the brain.
Use any of them or any other for prolonged time and you will develop tolerance, addiction and/or dependence. And if you quit, you will INEVITABLY have withdrawal symptoms. Which are in general opposite of everything that your drug of choice did to you.
You can somewhat avoid this by constantly changing and rotating substances, making sure that the new substance has pharmacologically nothing in common with the previous one, and that it doesn't hit the same receptors in your brain. But to do that you really have to be knowledgeable and creative in the psychopharmacology and even then you're not completely safe. In fact, "Big Pharma" is practically inventing new ways to cheat the inbuilt defensive mechanisms of our bodies with each new drug all the time. Same thing with street drugs. And the natural ones aren't the exception either. Always the same, universal rule with every prolonged drug use- starting, habituation, tolerance, dose escalation, more tolerance, addiction, dependence, withdrawal...
As Isaac Newton has said, every action has it's equal and opposite reaction. This rule applies perfectly in the biochemistry of drug dependence.
I hope that this simple information will help people to be cautious and to treat psychotropic substances with respect they deserve and with responsibility for their health.
You are 100% correct.
When I was in my 20s I was on 100mg oxycontin daily for at least 2 years prior to my surgery.
2 months after my surgery I found myself still popping these pills even though I had no pain now.
I had relationship issues at the time and I realized that I was not just physically dependant anymore.
So there I was with my box of oxys I had a decision to make. Take every single pill in the box along with a box of my mums valium and end it or quit cold turkey.
I spoke to my family and thankfully they were understanding.
My husband took care of our daughter while my mum sent me out in the middle of nowhere to her friends home.
I stayed for 2 weeks and it was HELL but my little girl pulled me through.
Fast foward 13 years later and I was sick again and back on oxys.
I was on 60 mg a day for 8 months until I had surgery again.
This time though I was able to get off them easily because the dose wasn't as high as well as the length of usage. But more importantly I was not mentally hooked like before.
Yes our bodies and brains a remarkable machines of nature.
Thank you for you informative comment. Have a lovely day ;-)
Well spoken, I have a similar expertise in this arena
The information you have referenced is widely accepted by the allopathic medical community. When looking at man as a biological-system's network comprised of a chemical matrix sustained by changes electrical in e- potential.
Knowing that the electron is a wave form and not a particle, and that each cell operates with channels dependent on voltage, the presented model of chemical compound dependency developes some holes. Most compounds disprupt the flow of e- waves (or block entirely thus disturbing the atoms within the pathway resulting in alteration of the atomic resonance. This change in e- wave state then alters cellular behaviour especially the signaling of genes and the availability ofmicro nutrients and their efficacy. The resonance field breaks down, becomes new, body adapts, atoms attempt ground state, more compound introduced, field breaks down, again new resonance forms (in the most efficient way possible) atoms attempt ground state, compound becomes source of e- wave forms for new resonance structures. Compound removed, field reorganizes as compound is eliminated and moved throughout tissue affecting other fields. After time ground state is achieved, now physical damage and nutrient deficiencies (especially micro can be restored)
What I'm attempting get at from what I've read friend is that there is much more to the old fashion receptor "lock and key" model of the mid 20th century. And restoration of the correct resonance, or ground state,( we say withdrawl)in the body from the atomic to the macro scale is achievable with a variety of approaches and mechanisms, harmonics/tech/earthling in snow/ the list goes on.
Could make for an interesting discussion!
Peace and e- to you

Pieter by tapering off a substance you can reduce the withdrawals to little more than a few bad days of flu. Tapering, even if it takes months is the best method of getting off a medication.
can i talk to u about lyrica wds plz bro
I agree a million
I’m so glad that you made the time to make this! I wish I had seen this video before I started taking it a little over a year ago. I am on day 4 Kratom free- the last three days were pretty rough, though I have experienced heroin withdrawals before so definitely would rather go through these then those! For me, I’m just going to be wary before I take anything you need to wean yourself off from. Always do some intense research before taking an unknown substance people! Thanks so much for sharing!
I started taking Kratom Late in 2018 and I wished I would have known of your journey then. My experience began with an extensive amount of education from my good friend who is a Kratom distributor.
I knew exactly the best way to take it and what to expect. I also knew about the habit forming affects it can have and how to mitigate those symptoms.
Even Making it the way you are supposed to it still tasted like a cross between lawn clippings and a wet teabag. But when I took the Green it was Just enough energy with out feeling a tweaked out. And enough of a pain reliever to keep going with out passing or tripping out. Which any of my prescription pain meds had a tendency to do.
The Red, which I really didn't take all that often, allowed me to relax and NATURALLY drift off to sleep and get a solid 6-8 hours. And wake up not feeling all groggy like I do with even over the counter sleep meds.
For me it was also physical pain. I was 54 when I started Kratom and at the time I was working at the VA hospital in St. Peters burg FL. as a Operating Room Sterilization Technician. The work was good But it got to be hard and fast paced. Vary exacting and specific. As well as physically and mentally draining.
But I definitely do empathize with you when it comes to the lack of real experience with taking Kratom both positive and negative. Or at least how it is to not know where to get reliable information.
I can also Identify with the whole social anxiety and how Kratom helped you to be less nervous and more sociable. Good for you sweetheart. Not for taking something to be 'more normal' but for being willing to try a naturally concurring supplement in order to "ease the burden' of being in a unfamiliar and draining environment. I get it.
And thank you also for being so supportive of your husband during this very difficult time for him trying to get off drugs. In my experience with drug and alcohol recovery I can tell you nothing beats the healing power of love. if we, they, have the capacity to let it in. I know it is or has been difficult for you. I pray for both you and your husband to find reprieve.
I know that this video was recorded a while ago and that you have most likely moved on to other things. But I would like to hear back from you soon if you have the chance. Just to see how your doing.
Best Wishes
This is very beautiful. Thank you
Going on 3 years taking Kratom, it's been a Godsend.
It is for a lot of people!
Hudsonvalley botanicals... I've used kratom for 6yrs or so and tried everything stores and online this is thee best place I've found and only place I use .. 85 kilos out the door shipped 3 day t/a
@Dream Killers not trying to sell anything just a place that is great
@Dream Killers have you tried raw grassfed meat, organs, dairy ,(kefir), eggs? That's all I eat. It calmed me way down.
Dream killers try doing about 15grams if you're withdrawing from heroin. Thats what i had to do to feel better. And every day slightly taper off
I was an alcoholic in the worst way. From the moment I woke up to the time I passed out. Lather, rinse, and repeat. Kratom helped me tremendously
I’m so happy it helped you!!
I sell kratom powder 85 dollar/kilo from indonesia with free shipping
as someone who was also told misinformation by numerous ppl, even entire groups, and blindsided by serious dependency: good for you. doing good work. you've spared many, I'm sure.
You’re Important! Thanks for the info!
Honestly this stuff mixed with Coffee is what gets me through a lot of very busy and stressful work days
What does it do for you?
Sameena Shah it gives you a euphoric feeling not a psychedelic experience. The strains keep you calm and clear minded.
WeKnow Nothing Thankyou! Exactly what I need.
@Mrs. Roper yeah i went off for two months because i was taking 50 grams per day some days and the withdrawals were shitty, not nearly as bad or lengthy as hydrocodone withdrawal but still crappy, I'm back on it for the passed year but never take more than 9 grams per day in 2.5-3 gram doses and i haven't had a drop in effects or any tolerance built at all, i stick with my plan and everything is peachy, no constipation (im vegan so that helps lol) no hair loss or nausea, literally no s9de effects beside a headache ever so seldom
SquidBag yeah you can totally mix it with hot coffee. Light sugar + coffee should help mask the taste pretty well.

Should look into phenibut for anxiety, like always everything in moderation, wanted to see if would hit on tremors and or runny nose as most noticeable
Hey Jahlen - I've just completed a Kratom Potentiator stack, that is also effective at reducing withdrawal issues. It keeps tolerance issues from getting crazy (we have some clients who start with 1-3 grams of Kratom on Monday, and end up at 40 grams a day in 7-10 days, as a result of tolerance build). PM me and I'll make sure to get you some, along with our GABAlicious anti-anxiety drink mix. (And thank you for sharing your experiences. It's really valuable). Best, ME
Hey lmk if you get this message I don't know how to navigate this well but wanna ask you a kratom question I been on it too
@@MarkAlanEffinger can you give me that info
Jason Clark hey! I actually don’t make any money off of anything!
One of the most on point accounts I've seen. Misinformation runs deep in both directions. Everyone that's considering trying it should watch this. Thanks for putting this out there.
I have been utilizing Kratom since I started treatments 4(ish) years ago. I’ve had strange symptoms doctors couldn’t figure out. I didn’t know about the withdrawals and I can’t thank you enough for opening up. I also have ovarian cyst, and that’s painful. I don’t take it everyday but you have explained why I’m having these symptoms. I don’t have an additive personality so it hadn’t crossed my mind. Thank you so very much for your help.
Hugs from Missouri
After 3 surgeries and getting hooked and dependent on opioids was hell. I do suffer from chronic pancreatitis but guess what, the VA cut me off and went through a week of hell. Kratom saved my life. I have not touched an opioid in 6 months.
What is causing the pancreatitis??? I had it only once. Reach out to me on Facebook
Kratom is an opioid.
Alkaloids in kratom are opioids. Saying kratom is a drug is like saying cannabis is a drug. Kratom and cannabis are plants. The drugs are the alkaloids or cannabinoids within the plant
G Nickson how so.
The va wants us all dead ive had a dozen brothers from the marine corps die from pancreas related problems before 40 i wont go near the va because of it .
I've been a lifelong introvert and empath. I'm a constant thinker and filled with anxiety. I tried regular medication and was overwhelmed with side effects. One of the meds made my arm go completely numb for over a week, not to mention the sexual side effects. I actually do not think my sexual fervor has ever completely recovered.
Kratom changed everything for me. I was able to break through the social anxiety and clear my head enough to think and focus. It made many things easier for me. As far as withdrawals it is no different from anything else. Using harder drugs, FDA approved meds, and even alcohol will have withdrawal symptoms if you are a daily user of them. Even coffee comes with a ridiculously painful migraine if I go too long without it. I'd rather enjoy the benefits and pros of kratom than worry about the very few cons when it comes to them. Unless someone can point me in the direction of something more effective I will continue to use it.
Thank you for making this video.
John Perry Hello John I also suffer from anxiety and social anxiety I was wondering if you could let me know what would be the best strain for me and maybe how often you take it.? Thank you
@@ricka0917 I like White Maeng Da. It gives me clarity of mind and is a good replacement for one trying to quit coffee. I have noticed that the different strains affect each person differently. I've heard many people say Green Maeng Da is an excellent balance between the energetic and clarity of mind from the white strains and the relaxation felt with red strains. My recommendation to you is find a site that sells a sampler pack to try the different strains. You might be able to get away with taking it once or twice a day. I'd suggest 5 grams per serving.
John Perry thank you for your reply John I appreciate it stay well
John Perry So true! I completely agree
Yeah but is it a lifetime solution?
Wow im happy you were able to talk about this. Ive been on and off heroin for a couple years. I did take kratom to stop for my last run (hopefully) but you are right. Yeah i felt great taking kratom but it just didnt stop. I knew it was time to stop and im only on my first night but i really dont want to take it or anything else anymore. Im so tired of it. Thanks for sharing i hope your strength keeps you at bay. Wish me luck ❤️
Thanks for sharing your story. My brother came across this stuff this week as an aid for opiate withdrawal so your info will def help, as I hope that it helps others just to stay away from it if they have an addictive personality. I hope that all is good with you and your family. Hugs.
Thought provoking. Thank you for sharing your experience with it. I am a Kratom user. I use it for pain first and foremost, arthritis. Before I retired I used it to help me concentrate on tedious tasks. It helped my concentration level. It’s always good to hear different opinions and experiences. It also has helped reduce my alcohol consumption a great deal.
Yvette, which strain do you use??
Kratom saves lives!
Mario G I know! 😀 I say that at the end of the video! Thanks for watching!
Thank you Jahlen. Just wanted to say that my kratom withdrawal was horrible. It was just as bad as quitting my 8 pill a day Percocet habit. Finally i went out and bought some Gaba from Walmart (supplement) and some ashwaghanda (supplement) and it relieved me. I used kratom every day for three years. Be real careful guys and congratulations to all the people who got off heroin and pain pills!
Thanks for the info. I want to quit kratom but I fear the withdrawal. I get RLS really bad at night and can't sleep and I can't afford to take a week off of work to quit it. I swear there are kratom distributors on Reddit and the AKS Forum that try and tell you you can't get addicted to it. YOU MOST CERTAINLY CAN. I'll try the Gaba and Ashwaganda.
Me too. Crapping myself and puking bile and couldn’t sleep
@@evreeka omg. I am considering taking kratom daily. I understand some people get withdrawal when going off it, but what is the main reason you would want to go off it? Like if a psychiatrist prescribed anti-depressants for instance, he wouldn’t really do it expecting you will later want to go off them right? Most people don’t go off coffee ever b/c one cup per day is usually not damaging. Why would u go off kratom? Asking seriously. Thx in advance 😀🙏
@@SolutionsWithin well, for one.. it’s not cheap.. I’m currently spending $300/month to take 2-3 extract pills per day.. you do build up a tolerance to it. It might take a year or 2, but I assure you, you will want/need more.
@@evreekahow are you doing now? I'm going to try to Wing myself off of it. And have a lot on hand for any future painful things that may come.😊
Been taking kratom everyday for about 2 years, really changed my life, helped me to get over my addiction to alcohol and pills. Would recommend 10/10
Switched one drug to another lol well done
@@EazyDuz18 you replying to everybody you loser 😂 you realize kratom is 1000x safer for you to consume over alcohol and pills. maybe learn something before you go spewing bullshit in the comment section. also kratom withdraws don’t even compare to oxy and alcohol withdraw
@@EazyDuz18 Dont be a wanker
@@EazyDuz18 While that's exactly what is happening here- kratom is usually less of a danger than the substances people use it to get off of.
Would you go to an AA meeting and say negative things about hardcore alcoholics who haven't had a drink in years, but chug coffee and chain smoke? Chainsmoking and excessive coffee drinking isn't healthy- BUT it's not messing their life up as bad as a drink would.
Joshua, may i ask how much you take?
I'm 23 and I've been taking kratom almost every day since January 2018! I dont share this with many people because some look down on me for this. I have bad anxiety since having my kids at 19 and 20 and since I found kratom my life has been so much better! I'm so thankful nick shared your video. I'm glad I found you. I feel like I can really relate to you ❤
Kratom helps me sooooo much with my anxiety. I have a kratom channel if you want to check it out where that’s all I talk about on there! The name is kratom Kween- cheesy I know 😂😂 I feel like we probably have sooo much in common!

What strain and what does should you use for anxiety and for sleep?
You are the one pronouncing it wrong haha
@@AQWVegeto who you talkin to?
I honestly only had the strength to stop taking xanax (alprazolam) after 15 long years thanks to kratom. I am aware kratom can also be heavy if one misuses it, but if you take it responsibly it can literraly save your life, it did mine. I'm not gonna lie at first I started taking large doses way too frequent but I realized it was because i was going through the xanax withdrawal and I started cutting down alot. I now only take it every now and then when I absolutely feel like relaxing but I finally dont depend on anything and that honestly feels so good it's a big deal for me I love not having to rely on a substance. I give alot of thanks to my kratom I know for a fact I would've been in a bigger hole right now because of those demonic xanax....
May I ask what dose you were on when you kicked off the benzos? And for how long?
We're you prescribed Xanax? Or street xan
Thanks for this Jahlen, beautifully presented mate 🙏
I've been on Suboxone for a few years now to kick opiates. I'm a recovering addict /alcoholic and recently purchased Kratom in hopes to get off the "subs" which are literally KILLING me. So glad to come across this video, thank you!
I was on subs for a wile and kratom got me off! Its fantastic! Good on ya!!!
Tom Pettke what strain do you take?
We're doing good keep going you'll conquer it. I know it's very hard just try not to go backwards any. God bless.
Ok... great. Glad you were honest. Didn’t realize the negative sides
This is a real video. Unlike other people trying to impress. Thanks for the honest video.
I started taking kratom when I was going through crazy alcohol withdrawals after being a heavy alcoholic for almost 2 years. It completely negated all the withdrawal symptoms and I was able to stay off alcohol indefinitely. Eventually I stopped using kratom too, but then I started using kratom again for treating depression/anxiety, which works amazingly for me. It doesnt make me feel high or stoned, or any kind of druggy way, which is nice. Just normal, clear headed and content. But now if I dont take kratom first thing in the morning I get super depressed and anxious throughout the day and I know I need to get off kratom because I've been taking it daily for a year now and I know its probably taking a toll on my physical health. Not nearly as bad as alcohol, but still
How are you doing now???
Im on 3 years its fine
@@These-nutz what @Joseph Farrier said. you should moderate what works for you. I cut back a lot. it works great for anxiety and is relatively harmless, but keep in mind it is addictive and it does have withdrawal symptoms if you overdo it and then try to stop. i tend to use more when i don't have alternative things like cbd, which also helps me tremendously. it's been a lifesaver for me honestly and not killing me like alcohol was. way better alternative to pharms too, way less addictive i'd say. less harmful than any drugs a doctor would give you for anxiety/depression.
@@env0x in your opinion, does kratom build tolerance like where u have to increase the dosage to get the effects? I’ve taken it a few times and like it for energy and mood etc. not sure why people need to go off irbid you take a small dose with coffee each morning.
I've taken kratom 3 times a day for 3 years and I dont plan to stop! EVER! I started taking it for arthritis in my knees, well I noticed how it helped my mental health issues. I'm off all 4 psych meds with only harder stools as a side effect which I take for it and I'm good. So if I'm addicted. SO WHAT!!!
Kratom has changed my life for the better!!!
No disrespect meant. I take Kratom 3x a day now for 3 years and my only concern with that is if I'm in a circumstance where I can't get it, the wds will be awful. Now there's no reason why I wouldn't have any, but you never know. I am scared to death they will ban it. Ugh
gotta drink alot of water
I'm curious to know if you've experienced tolerance build up after this prolonged use?
Carrie Rogers that’s the whole point of why Kratom is just as bad as an opiate addiction. I was a heroin addict since I was 16. At 24 I got clean for 2 years. Completely sober. Then I came across kratom and started taking it everyday because I was so impressed with how close it felt to an opiate. Well guess what, for the past 3 years I have been addicted to kratom and let me tell you, it is JUST like being addicted to heroin. If I don’t take it, I get physical and metal withdrawal. Ya it might not be as severe, but it’s there nonetheless. And now I’m nervous to go through the pain of getting off a substance again. Don’t fool yourself. If you take this plant everyday you will become addicted to it. It looses the effect over time if you take it everyday and will make you miserable. Terrible mood swings and just overall zombie like mentality. It’s not worth it, do not take it everyday. Once or twice a week if anything.
Anonymous Joey I’ve been taking it everyday for 6 years now for chronic pancreatitis. No it has not lost effect on me or deminished in anyway. I’ve also unfortunately been addicted to painkiller because of my chronic pain and I’ve tapered myself off of kratom as well as stopped cold turkey and it’s WAYY easier. I’ve done so multiple times.
I love this stuff along with cbd. Would rather take this than un natural substances. It helps with mood swings, depression and anxiety so much.
Hydrogen cyanide is natural too
How much do you take. I’m new and I want to try it out. What’s the cost
You can get a bag of gold Kreator for about ten dollars in Georgia. Go to any “Indian” gas station.

Kratom got me off of Suboxone. I cut withdrawal symptoms by 3/4. But I agree it’s not super easy to quit either but I’ll take the very mild withdrawal from Kratom over opiate withdrawal any day.
For sure! I’m in support of kratom, just wanted to share my story 🥰
I was a heroin addict for fifteen years. Kratom gave me my life back.
So did it make it easier I'm on methadone but I want to get off
@@km-oc9ip yes. Drastically. You really should taper your dose on methadone slowly until you are on a safe dose to jump off from. Then make kratom tea because when you are sick the powder is too hard to eat.
@@z.s.7992 I don't wanna get sick it's why I havent detoxed yet I dont have time to be sick
Thank you so much for this video!! You explain everything perfectly!!
I'm coming off of a 14-year dope addiction so every single thing you said hit the nail on the head.
Very good advice at the end. Thanks for sharing!
Just a tip guys...if you take Kratom...use DL-Phenylalanine in between...or even if you are quitting...the withdrawals are almost non-existent. It's a fantastic natural tool for many things but USE DL-PHENYLALAINE. It's an amino acid supplement which produces serotonin and dopamine receptors in the brain ;) Much love x
Where can i buy this and what does it do? I've been taking kratom for 3+ yrs and I've run out before my next payday and do start feeling withdrawals and feel kinda panicky till i can get more. I have major back issues so i dont plan on quiting but dont want to feel this way when i run out ... TIA
www.amazon.com/s?k=dlphenylalanine&crid=CH14F20BK7YM&sprefix=dpphenylalanine&ref=nb_sb_ss_sc_0_15
I dont find it addicting at all and I do it several times a day for 4-5 years. Does the withdrawl effects happen after a week? I have stopped here and there for a few days and dont feel any withdrawl symptoms.
GreenSlug420 I think everyone is different. My husband will start feeling withdrawals within 24 hours of his last dose. He’ll start constantly yawning and get cold sweats and horrible anxiety. A lot of it is mental, but there’s 100% physical withdrawals for a good amount of people, but not everyone!
@@GreenSlug420 for me, if i take 10g or less per day there really isnt a withdraw.. it only happens for people taking heavy doses pretty sure. about 16-18 hours after the last dose is when the withdraws usually happen and from my experience they only last 2-4 hours max. there's a tiny bit of depression, fatigue and temperature regulation problems. its like having a cold for a couple hours
A combination of THC/CBD and kratom have change me entirely. I used to be so lively and I got into a really dark place, even without regularly using both now it helped me be me again. A complete change.
Thank you! Great honnesty and balance!
It's your own decision it's good to be informed thank you I'm glad it helped you with your pain and social anxiety
I have been taking it for 6+ years and you are right it becomes addictive, and withdrawals are real. I do believe it has alot of benefits for certain people. Moderation is key. Totally should stay legal. Thanks for your view on this.
Definitely agree! 🥰
I have end stage Papillary Carcinoma that has spread to my brain and lungs. I have been offered morphine..but no, Kratom serves me well. Blessings to all.
So sorry to hear that. I'm glad that you have Kratom. Morphine is so sedating and I find kratom is not.

Eat CBD weed in your food! Hope you get well.
Blessings To you and PrayersnLuv 👼 👼🥰 🥰💝 💝🙏 🙏
I’m having a real rough time trying to get off of kratom. I’m at the point where it doesn’t really give any effect anymore. I can either quit, or do tolerance breaks, which sounds like it sucks. But something needs to change. Your right about that fear of being dependent on something. It’s pretty scary
This is almost a year out from your comment but agmatine sulfate, magnesium glycinate and dimethylglycine are wonderful for this. All three are safe and widely available. Those supplements with taper will allow you to stop.
Hi Jahlen. You did the right thing here. I also agree that it should remain legal, but the negatives should also be out there for those who may be looking for something other than hard drugs, etc. I'm still struggling with Kratom, but have tapered down to a very small daily dose. It is highly addictive. Not like heroin or meth, etc, but it's all relative. I was never a "drug addict" in the typical sense, but I became super addicted to Kratom because it was touted as basically harmless. The online stores and head shops don't talk much about that. I think it would help if you told people the daily dose that you were on (or how that evolved over time). That's the one thing you left out. Withdrawal symptoms from Kratom will obviously differ depending on how much you're taking daily, and the amount of time you've been using it (3 years in my case on moderate to low doses). Anyway.... thanks for sharing some very important info that may help a lot of people avoid unnecessary suffering, etc. Once again: Kratom should be legal. It serves a vital purpose for many. Just be aware of what is before you start taking it. Get some genuine input. Thanks!
The stuff saved my life I recommended highly

It literally not only made me ok but it made me the best version of me I’ll gladly eat some dried plant leaf until death to love this life!

This is a great story, thank you for sharing
Fuck yeah bro there we go!

Awesome video! I take kratom cuz I'm a ex heroin addict and have severe anxiety and also ovarian cysts so I feel u. I'm so glad u hit on every point, negative and positive! Everyone must do there research and do what's right for them! Great vid!
Jahlen, I have had a very similar experience as what you described as your own. Took kratom for same reasons etc.
Helped so much with social anxiety. Nowadays I take it in a more recreational fashion. It definitely takes a lot of discipline on my end, because my body and mind love the way it makes them feel. Anyway, good video. Thanks.
Kratom is a gift that we need to find as much out about it as possible!!!! Its helped so many people!! They don't want people off heroine they want as many people addicted as possible! So anything that will help get people off it they will ban and make illegal! Its utter nonsence !
I have bad social anxiety as well. Stay strong.
This is so true
Thank you!!
Probably one of the most truthful videos about Kratom on TH-cam! Thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing your experience. I guess it's different for everyone's body. I'm definitely psychologically hooked on the stuff, but not physically addicted, and I do use it every day when it's available. But, occasionally I've times where I ran out and couldn't get any more for a few days, and I can't honestly say I felt any withdrawals. It really sucked not having it, as far as my mental state went, but physically my body felt fine without it. On the other hand though, coffee, for me, is wayyyyy the hell more physically addictive than kratom is. I have coffee several times every day usually, and if I go even so much as 24 hours without it, I feel like shit. So I guess everything is different for everyone. That's simply my experience, and I figured I'd share. I'm glad you shared yours as well, because for a lot of folks it certainly is addictive, and it's good for them to know if that possibility ahead of time. By the way, I think you're quite gorgeous 🙂
Well said.
Its almost the same for me. My body is doing quite well without kratom, I have a little sleep problems but you can also see that as mental withdrawal. But the worst thing is the mood that is in the Basement and the lack of Motivation. Psychologically its really hard.
I see the withdrawals kind of like a withdrawal from coffee you’d be surprised how someone who drinks it everyday can respond a day without it
Kratom eithdrawl after avout 1 ot 2 years of daily use is no joke. Visit the subreddit /quittingkratom
scott bistransky quit taking it cold
Turkey then buddy. Just got done coming off that garbage you call Kratom. Good luck in advance
It literally acts on the mu opioid receptors - EXACTLY like opiates do. Please, stop the bullshit guys, this isn't up for "in my opinion..."
Take it from someone who OD'd on heroin(well, fent actually, I could smell it & taste it[awful compared to real H], knew what it was - got careless with the dose though), has tried every form of opiate(and every other substance) that I could get my hands on - there is NO other non-opioid substance that has withdrawal symptoms so similar to that of opiates like kratom. If you're wondering why, see the first paragraph again, it's very much real and for a very much factually proven reason. It even has the worst part of opiate withdrawals(IMO anyway): the muscle restlessness. If you've ever had 'restless leg syndrome'(one of the most frustratingly agonizingly annoying things on earth) it's exactly that, except I get it in my arms, wrists, hands, and fingers. And it's at its worst when you lay down, and, if your withdrawals start after you fall asleep(like if I forget to take kratom before bed), then you're going to get abruptly woken up and in the shittiest state ever. Not just hating the world, but hating your physical body at that exact moment.
This is big boy stuff, and you're going to end up right in the middle of it without even realizing it if you aren't careful. There's nothing here to "interpret" or have an "opinion" on - it literally affects your brain chemistry in a similar way(that's literally how kratom works, you can read up on it - my drug use has been driven my curiosity of the affects of brain chemistry) to opiates, and, with very regular use, just like opiates, it produces similar negative results(re: physical dependency, similar withdrawal symptoms).
Coffee only wishes it was so effective...
I had ONE day of caffeine withdrawals after consuming 600-900 mg daily for years. This doesn’t sound the same.
Very informative. Thanks for doing this video. 👍
Thank you for sharing this, Jaylynn. It’s important to know about this. This drug has a WD, even tapering can be intense-lack of sleep & appetite, loss of motivation, heat rushes & chills (especially at night), and you feel anti-social. So the opposite of what Kratom does. There are a few supplements to take while WD, and tapering always work better than quitting out of the blue.
The hard thing about kratom and benzos for people with mental health issues is that they make you feel the way you think you're supposed to feel (free of anxiety, depression etc). This for me is why they're so much more addictive than alcohol or hard drugs
That is so true! But I personally think kratom is a better alternative to benzo’s anyway! So if you’re going to take something, I’d go with kratom. Really the goal should be to handle these emotions and anxiety without any substance but that’s never worked for me unfortunately
Shut your cake hole. Clearly you don’t know anything.
The K is better and safer than alcohol for everyone! You can still cause self harm with both, but you’re not going to go get behind the wheel and go kill anyone on Kratom!
Kratom saved my life. When the pain is so unbearable I take kratom and it has changed my life. I carry a bottle of water with Kratom mixed in and it is life saving for me. When the state and pharma want to try to take it away so it can only be obtained thru prescriptions THAT SPEAKS VOLUMES ABOUT WHAT IT CAN DO FOR PEOPLE. THEY KNOW HOW GREAT THIS IS AND WANT TO AS ALWAYS TAKE IT AWAY TO MAKE MONEY. AS ALWAYS.
Thanks for sharing your experiences !!
Anything is addictive. Moderation is key.
Absolutely
I hate this retarded take
If people understood that, we would not have the concept of drugs, which we have today. We're all stupid sometimes.

Kratom has helped my ADHD as well as my anxiety regarding my divorce from a covert narcissist (13 year marriage). I've stopped taking it many times because I ran out. I've never had withdraws, I've never had a feening need that made me scared, anxious or cause anger. I researched before I took it, I had friends who had been on this brand for over a year (*not cheap. Imperial Cloud Nine Kratom blend). I have never had shakes getting off of it or any other withdraw issues. Maybe because I'm a happy person in general, Kratom simply made me relax but have a boost of energy, helped me focus and boosted my already general feelings of well being. Also helped with sleep ☺️ I've heard cheap versions of Kratom can have issues. Just make sure if you try it to get a quality product 👍🏻 Powder is way better than pills. By FAR. Mix it with a juice shot and throw it down. (Juice shot meaning cranberry juice or orange juice b/c it tastes like a bitter tea ☺️ NOT an alcoholic shot)
ADHD testimony with Kratom:
Before I tried Kratom I was trying to learn the Ukulele. I would be trying to play a song from chord charts online but every time I'd look away from the screen to the fret board I'd FORGET THE CHORD! It made it impossible for me to play thru a song. The day I took K for the first time I was playing the Uke and when it kicked in it's like the synapses in my brain finally were able to connect and I was able to remember chords in order to play through a song!!! It's worth trying and it's natural. Just buy quality and get the powder, not capsules. Capsules seem cheaper but it's not. I order mine from a shop called the Kushi Bazaar in Ft Mill, SC. ❤️👍🏻
1 kilo leaf kratom with 7 liter boil water around 2 hour,after that packing for each 500ml and put in cold water for make it delicious,,take 500ml per day...trust me,you life and sleep better than before,,hahaha
Did you have hair loss
Kratom saved my life for me i get a little restless if i dont take it but nothing else.. No runny nose or anything like opiates ... Thank God for kratom
I get runny nose smh
I get all the same symptoms as from opiate withdrawal just less strong, I have trouble stopping
Kratom is like any other drug- you have to taper off it. If you taper, there are no issues (this is from personal experience).
exactly
Yea, but the point is...they leave all that crap out. Never mentioned how addictive it is or about the withdrawals
@@niks8521 I have taken kratom for 5 plus yrs and every once in awhile I quit for a few weeks not once have I ever had withdrawals and had to tapper off of it. Many people I know and work with take it around the same length of time and they have never experienced withdrawal or any negative effects from lack of use. Mabye some people are taking way to much rather than a dose once or twice a day
I think everybody is different and I have tried it, it is extremely helpful. It’s not the same as taking pain killers from the two brands I have tried I didn’t get the high but I got enough relief that I desperately needed not to mention I got my time back and it helped tremendously with my anxiety as well. It got me through a horrible endometriosis flare up while visiting family where I would of been in bed crying curled up in a ball if I hadn’t had the chance to buy it and try it. @Nik S I don’t know if you have ever been an addict or used this but if not please don’t deter people from taking in this vital information that can truly save someone’s life. Some people may not withdraw or be okay just like some people can handle getting off drugs easier but for those struggling to survive and make it through one day and also need to pass a drug test, this is literally a lifesaver. It’s not like methadone or suboxone that can be super dangerous and like she explained there’s a window and an amount that works if you take to much you might get nauseous or throw up but you will not OD like you can on these heavy drugs and the drugs given to get off. The problem that isn’t spoken about is the government, fda, and big pharma wants to ban it till they are able to own and distribute it themselves to make trillions of dollars a year like they do off getting people addicted to prescription medications.
Katy Porter 100% Agreed! Thanks for sharing!
Really nice informational video!!
Ive been taking kratom for a year as well, once year sober from meth, pills, and alcohol
Nick Ark that’s awesome 👏
I hope your period gets better
thanks for sharing your opinion and experience! very helpful!
That was awesomely informative, or informatively awesome: take your pick. Thank you for a useful, thoughtful, and true perspective.
Just came across this video. I've been on Suboxone longer than I'd like to admit. I take it as prescribed, but I would love to be able to live with out having debilitating wd symptoms. I've heard of kratom before, and reading some of these comments, for the first time, I actually feel like there's some actual hope for me to be able to live a "normal" life without subs. Thank you for this video, and thank you to all the people in the comments sharing their stories♥️
I’m not trying to be smart lol, but could you try tapering off the subs and tapering onto the kratom. As far as I understand, kratom is not damaging. Even that could be tapered off of later. Someone on here said she tapered off kratom using ashwaganda and maca I think it was? I think the best way to deal with addiction is tapering.
I tapered from subs to Kratom - it was intense but it really is the way to go. You’ll have to start high / but you can taper at a capsule a day and significantly reduce wd’s.
Im liking it too much. Just as with weed if i feel good i roll another one just as im finished with the previous one. Today i was gonna take only one scoop but i already took it 3 times only been awake 3 hours.. how long did you have withdrawal?
With the help of Kratom I was able to get off of an opioid addiction. After 4 years I am still taking Kratom, and still off of opioids. Nuff said.
Good For You Jahlen, thanks for sharing your experience. I have been taking Kratom for over 2 years and It has changed my life granted I am a 57 year old construction worker, Total Game Changer... I am aware of the withdraw and constipation lol
My dad started taking kratom last year, for his back pain. He has several ruptured discs due to weightlifting over the years. And other body pain. I was curious about the other uses for kratom such as anxiety, energy and focus. I started taking it around December and did everyday. I decided not to take it for a couple days and had zero negative side effects. No withdrawals. I don't know... I think everyone reacts differently. With that said, I am a little conflicted when it comes to the DEA wanting to outlaw it. I don't think people should need to be dependent on anything but I also believe it's a better alternative to drugs and alcohol. 1 in 6 in America alone are on psychiatric drugs such as antidepressants and anxiety medications. My point is, I would hope we could all be a little understanding when it comes to how people are choosing to medicate and deal with their own issues. Everyone, and I mean everyone, is different. What works for one person, will not work for someone else.
Very informative video! Thank you for sharing.
Been taking Kratom for 3 months now. Decided to try it after being addicted to pills for 5 years. Haven't touched any pain pills for these past 3 months. I also have tons of extra money because kratom is so much cheaper. I actually feel normal again. I absolutely feel like kratom saved me.
Yessir congratulations to you and everyone on this comment thread
Which strains help you?

Hey, just bumped into your channel today, and I'm willing to try Kratom for the first time in order to kick off my 5 year Heroin habit! So far I'm impressed with all of the reviews I've seen so far!!
@Klaudia Simon I didn't get it from an online vendor,i purchased it in person from a street corner Bodega! Depending on where you're from, you can find it on most "Convenience Stores." I'm in NYC, so for me it was no real issue finding it!!!
This is literally an answered prayer 🙏
