kratom has evolved into one of my favorite drugs of all time man
not because of its effects, which are pretty awesome (assuming you have no major opioid tolerance)
but because of how it encourages you not to abuse it, it has layers and layers of anti-abuse mechanisms (which I end up LOVING after becoming dependent)
if you try to get super fucked up on it, it punishes you
if you take too much, the high gets worse from side effects
if you take the right amount, it's subtle but amazing and harmless
if you take less than your normal amount you still get high, it's not like "i didn't get a full hit" type of feeling
it's very easy to taper, too
I truly highly revere kratom. It's helped me stay off heroin for almost 10 years now. Truly a magical little plant with so much potential.
