Libby and Jacob talk about 7ohm and mitragynine.  Melanie was opioid-naive when she walked into a vape shop and sold 7ohm pills. She was blindsided and wrecked by FULL BLOWN opioid withdrawals that many, many more people are seeking professional treatment for because of their ridiculous intensity.

HEADS UP: This week the interview is someone who stopped an extreme kratom-kava drink habit but is continuing to use kratom as a harm reduction strategy.  While the podcast, based on our expertise, believes 100% abstinence from kratom is necessary for most past problematic kratom users, we feel sharing Joey L.'s story turning his life around after getting up to like 17 tonic shots a day, is worth telling.

Happy New Year!  Just a quitting interview this week. David M. escalated into an expensive kava-kratom product habit. His family surprised him with an "intervention". After a short-term medical detox, he is now almost a month kratom free!
