Kratom shouldn't be scheduled, but many of us believe it should be made for 21 & up. It's helped me with chronic pain resulting from carpel tunnel syndrome and L5-S1 nerve pain as well as help a bit with my autism issues.  I don't find that "it's addictive." I've taken the same dose for years, so I don't get these people saying it's addictive. I've gone off it cold turkey to show others its not addictive with no symptoms of withdrawal.
