Kratom is a godsend for those of us who take it in small amounts to avoid the dangers of man made opiates. I broke both of my heels in a fall from a ladder. My career in construction did not go away. Kratom allows for a haze free comfort that pills just can't provide. If you need kratom, don't let abusers scare you away from it's natural benefits. I spent twenty-five years building a business. Without kratom, I would have had to step away. Six years and my modest consumption has not needed to increase. What other pain relief can offer that?

For sure, I agree it definitely helps, and it saved me from a lot of stuff and got me off hard drugs and pain pills from getting hurt. I don't think kratom is a bad thing, and people who need it im all about, and I don't wish for it to be banned at all. I just shed light on how it is addicting and it's not good for the body in heavy daily use. It took away all my pain, and I definitely miss that, but I love being sober myself, but that's just my own opinion. I'm glad it helps you as it helps probably millions of people, and im sure if we got it in the countries they are made, im sure it's pure. The gas station kratom gas so much crap in it it's insane. I'm sorry to hear about your pain, and I'm glad you are able to live comfortably . Thanks for commenting and keep on keeping on!

Appreciated. There is a place out of Idaho called Happy Hippo that delivers pure high-quality kratom. I have no affiliation, but like you, I don't want gas station kratom harming people nor allowing those in big pharma opportunity to slander it based off of impure options.

@fearandloathinginamerica concur. No doubt it is addictive. I quit every now and again just to make sure I can. My amount is a couple of teaspoons, and my withdrawal side effect is really deeply twitchy shoulders. It lasts for about 24-36 hours. No one should do anything regularly if not needed. Moderation is the key to all things. Including the good things. I'm glad I commented. It's nice to hear your perspective.

@spudboyQ I agree I definitely have a addictive personality so when I like something I love it. Never a good thing but at least I know I know I have it. I love to hear how other people feel towards it cause I see some good feedback and also some very ignorant feedback so I try to respond to the good ones cause it seems people like to remind me of what I look like 😆 but hey it is what it is! I'm glad it works for you and as you said moderation is the way to go cause quitting wasn't hard it was all the bs that came with it ya know but each it's own I appreciate you commenting and watching the video.

Depends on the Harley. They are very easy to work on and if you take care of them, they treat you right. The newer models are the problem, just like the newer models of any vehicle, household appliance etc. it’s all built like shit, built cheap, built with no love. So shit falls apart and doesn’t last like it used to. Indians are great. I learned how to ride on a victory hammer but parts were so expensive since victory went out of business and Indian bought em out. Made the switch to Harley and I’ll never look back haha. Went from a dyna low rider to a road king and I never thought I would ever ride a touring bike cuz I thought they were ugly and bulky and just not for me, but then I got a touring bike and the comfort of the ride is a game changer. On a completely different note, kratom. Got off heroin over 10 years ago with the help of a maintenance drug. Life improved drastically, rebuilt, got a career, succeeded in all areas of my life. Then came off that maintenance drug 2 years ago, with the aid of kratom. And now here I am, struggling with coming off the kratom. I think it’s more mental and more for pain relief than anything, I don’t experience crazy withdrawal when I stop, yet I just can’t stay stopped. Haven’t really had any negative side effects to kratom other than the fact that I just don’t want to take anything at all anymore so that weighs heavy on me. I’m more productive when I take it, my mood is better, and the pain is gone so that’s where it gets tricky. I used to take 30gs a day, now I take about 15-20 ish but I’m working my way down and hopefully in the next few months I can say I’m completely off it too because I’m the same age as you and I’ve just had enough of wasting years tied to a substance of any kind and I want the freedom. I’m gonna check out the rest of your videos and try to gauge what that process of coming off was like for you. Thanks for the update, glad you are doing well!

Hell yea I agree the older bikes are great! I've had a few older Harleys and I definitely loved them but now parts are so insane and I agree the new models of anything sucks my wife has a newer car and it has so many problems and I have a 08 honda and it's been a amazing vehicle. To the kratom I fully agree I'm not as productive anymore as I was but I force myself to be and the pain man it's hard to get up in the morning honestly when before I would get up looking forward to taking my dose and feeling great for a while. I just got to the point where all I was thinking about was my next dose and hoping I didn't puke lol I would take a day scoop and just shoot it down the hatch and slam a whole bottle of water and hope for the best. I hope you get off of it cause I totally feel you on the slave mentality to substances. For me it was the same it was more of a mental battle as I use to do many drugs in the past. Keep your head up us humans are strong 💪

What made you take it in the first place? I tried it because of Joe Rogan thank God I didn't get into it big time.

Well honestly I got on it to wing myself off pain pills and herion. People told me at certain amounts it gave the same effects and it definitely did. It helped me through alot but after years if doing it I realized I was extremely addicted to it but they say it's not addicting and that is bs. Be glad you didn't get deep into it.

@SS-gu2tx I mean everybody has different withdraws. It was easier pain wise then herion and pain pills but I was poppin 140 80mg roxys a month back when they just handed them out. For me it was very uncomfortable like body aches, restless legs, sweating, and I was very emotional which I'm not a emotional person for the most part. Some people have told me it was worst then some hard drugs but for me it just felt like the flu while being in pain and emotional and it took me a few weeks to feel normal again.
