I'm a former heroin addict (9 years clean in August) but I also have severe fibro and can't even stand that long. I'm also job hunting after losing my last job because I went to the hospital (for psych reasons) and had to call off a whole week of work. I've read up and it seems like what I should get is red vein but I have no experience with kratom.
It is physically addictive so like keep that in mind before you jump into using it
For me it wasn't very addictive and I could use it or not like coffee, but my brother's roommate literally can't stop taking it or he gets opioid withdrawal type shit
Also it's the nastiest tasting thing you will ever put in your mouth. I recommend capsules
Sounds more and more like I'd need to be v careful if I ever get any to try
Have had an acquaintance need to go on Suboxone to get off kratom, so I think anyone should be wary of it. Has CBD had any effects for you, if you've ever tried it?
Chocolate plant based milk is the only thing that masks the flavor.
Big second on using capsules. You can get used to the powder, I'd mix it with a small amount of water and chug it then use orange juice or something as chaser. But the capsules are so much better and easier on your stomach.
