But as soon as people start dying from using a drug, then that dramatically changes the way it's perceived by the public for obvious reasons. And because Kratom tends not to kill people, relatively speaking, it's extremely safe compared to morphine type or fentanyl type compounds. then it doesn't carry those same problems.

If you were drinking yourself to death and you're able to transition onto like one can of this per day, I would say that's probably better. But if you're just not doing anything and then you become dependent on this, I would assume that that's a step in the wrong direction probably.

And then there's also the obvious issue that if you're taking a drug to address a problem that you are likely to encounter continuously for the rest of your life, then you're setting yourself up to use that drug continuously for the rest of your life. So if the issue, like I do use Kratom occasionally as an alternative to ibuprofen if I've been like exercising a lot and I'm in pain. Yeah. But.
