Can we talk about some the mental gymnastics the kratom community is engaging in?

For Kratom? That's absolutely ridiculous. That would be the equivalent to me sucking a dudes dick for 5 Tylenol 3's and an ounce of weed. Some people are just idiots. 'Oh no I'm so addicted to kratom' shut the front door. Right now. It's nothing really, if you do other opiates you'll see a way harder issue, if you're that addicted, just use tianeptine or fentanyl analogues. I will honestly say that through my personal experience, Kratom actually is physically addictive. I would use a whole kilo in a week. More than that actually, this went on for a few years. Stopping did cause withdrawals, I felt like I had a cold, restless legs.. Took actually months(closer to a full year) to get all the way back. But that was while still using it once or twice a week responsibly.

My point is, whoever sold their dog or lost their kids are fucking idiots. They might as well do real opiates if they're going to let something as easy to quit as Kratom ruin their life like that. Sounds like their sociopaths anyways to me. In m addiction to it, I would NEVER let it affect having my kids or trading my dog for it. No way. I care about those things way more than the Kratom even though the withdrawal is nasty honestly, I'm just saying if you're going to have it affect you like that why don't you do something stronger? Like Kratom takes so much effort to consume... Just shoot dope if you're going to let it control you like that..

Sorry, I'm sure those folks have stories or whatever. But first of all, you have to be one weak person to let something as benign as Kratom control you like that. And second of all, why in the hell kratom? Ugh sorry, I feel bad for even typing this because whether or not I think it's absolutely retarded obviously it's a thing..
