I’ve used Kratom regularly for about 6 years now - several times per week. Helped curb my nightly drinking habit and relieves stress and anxiety. My wife also appreciates the anti-anxiety effects, although she has a very low tolerance so even the slightest overdose makes her sick.

It’s definitely habit forming so I tend to take 4-6 week breaks every now and then - no withdrawal symptoms aside from difficulty falling asleep naturally for the first couple of days.

I have also had my complete liver panel bloodwork done every several times over the past few years. My doctor was aware of my kratom use so he carefully analyzed me and my liver. No change at all. Liver and blood numbers had no fluctuations. This is a plant that’s been used medicinally for thousands of years in Asia - when buying from reputable online vendors (not shady head shops or gas stations), the stuff is about as safe of a substance as there is. When combined with a good edible, you’ll float out into another galaxy

I broke my ankle pretty severely (3 places) in 2017. After surgery, of course they gave me painkillers but only for maybe 7-10 days or something like that.

4 months later when I started walking again on it again, it hurt pretty badly but I didn't want to ask for or take more pain pills and Ibuprofen helped but only the 800's.

So I heard about the opiate effects of Kratom from a few different people and took the powder because it was the cheapest. It helped with the pain, about as good as the 800 ibuprofen. But it helped immediately and immensely with my nervous gut. Since I was a kid, when I get even the slightest bit of nervous, I have to shite, immediately. When I take kratom, I take one shite in the morning, and that's it for the day. A big shite at that.

So, in times of stressful decision making, when my nervous shits were always the worse, a scoop of Kratom in the morning for 3-5 days gets me right where I need to be for effective shite time and place. Immediately in the morning after one cup of coffee. Works wonders when nothing else EVER has. Metamucil, yogurt, pro-biotics, none of that even made a diffence.
