Opioids Kratom Megathread V.6

[Snafu in the Void]

I don't understand how kratom constipates people. For me, it's the exact opposite. Im too regular when I'm taking kratom. I'm talking 3 movements every morning. I guess it's all the fiber.

Same. Made me quite regular.

Only in high doses with no opioid tolerance do I notice it being more difficult to pee or poo, but even then it's nowhere near as bad as other opioids.

do you think its possible to create psychosomatic constipation cuz I would assume the fiber would cancel out any possible constipation yet ive heard people talking about how kratom causes constipation I know that individual physiology varies but just a thought I had like do you think someone could make their stool physically harder just by really believing it will be?

I think it's possible, but not probable.

Your second statement pretty much covers it; individual physiology varies. Kraton can be weird for me, sometimes my poo is rock hard, other times it's completely normal. I'm sure a lot of it has to do with my diet at that time, but I don't keep track of it enough to say for sure.

ya I also wonder if cannabis use could effect it I read that recent cannabis use is linked with a 30% decreased risk of constipation could be bs tho heres the study I don't know the sample size they used to make this claim or how much crossover there is between kratom users and stoners but
