Kratom has abuse potential and requires mindful tapering to get off if used on a daily basis. Nothing fatal but I'm trying to acknowledge that it is not without some concern. I have chronic pain and some headspace stuff that it really helps with but at this point my relationship with it could be construed as, um, er, addicted -- but same thing with coffee. Cannabis can be psychologically addicting (a close friend is a chronic cannabis user who wheezes like a 2 pack a day cigarette smoker). It is not for everyone but should absolutely be legal everywhere.
