Please keep this plant legal in Virginia. I have PTSD from my time in service and tried several antidepressants and anxiety medicine. All of them had terrible side effects especially on the type of colitis I have (caused during deployment by contaminated water). Kratom is the only thing that helps me relax and be able to be present for my family with no side effects. I can even go to ballgames and hiking with no anxiety. It’s even helped my colitis tremendously. I don’t understand why you are trying ban something completely safe and effective?
