I had a number of injuries that required pain regulation.  I was a victim of the opioid crisis.  Had I not found a kind soul that taught me about Kratom I am positive I would either be a junkie on the street or dead.  Kratom manages my pain with out making me feel “high” like opioids did.  I have experimented with Kratom and it’s side effects and I have found I can stop at any time.  Of course my pain is no longer managed but that tells me Kratom is a million times better than any pain killer big pharma is going to give you.  It’s excellent for managing depression as well.  I suspect that’s why companies hate it so much.  Please, do the right thing here.
