Please do not make it illegal to possess and use this life saving tea! That itself would be criminal!
As a nurse for over 35 years, and Kratom consumer of 5 years, I know firsthand how this plant saves lives WITHOUT altering one’s capabilities. After a tragic work accident in 2014 left me in daily unbearable pain, I knew I had to research what I could do to make my life bearable. I did not want to use narcotics, but my two spinal cord stimulators were not enough, and I could not get out of bed. Depressed, making my Final Exit Plan, I came across a post that mentioned Kratom, and I decided to give it a try.
That decision changed me, changed the course of my life, and … honestly, saved me. Kratom gives me hope and pain relief without the ‘dirty’ narcotics, or alteration of my mental status. It’s… truly a miracle. It would be criminal to make it illegal, and to take away from people who really need it to live. Please don’t do it.
