If you are using kratom and are at-risk of mixing it with stronger drugs known to cause respiratory depression, please have naloxone/narcan around for an accidental overdose so others can revive you, or so you can help friends or family members.  Kratom does not appear to cause people to stop breathing in the same way classic opioids do.  There is at least one case report of the use of naloxone to reverse the effects of kratom, but in general it appears it won't be helpful with a kratom alone overdose - but kratom mixed with polydrug intoxication - naloxone can save a life.  You never know, a kratom product may be adulterated or someone you think is only taking kratom, may have been hiding their harder substance abuse.
