I used Kratom to get off a prescription pain killer addiction and within a few months I was addicted to Kratom. In fact, Kratom withdrawal was WORSE. After going through the motions of being a Kratom supporter and then it's victim, I am highly disappointed in the biases of this film. They only shed a nice light in favor of Kratom while making those with a negative attitude towards it seem crazy or uninformed. Kratom IS addictive and I did go seek it habitually. If I didn't have it I went into serious withdrawal within 10 or less hours of my last use. This is not a truly informative documentary. It's very biased in favor of Kratom. They should have interviewed people like myself who initially advocated for it, took it "as prescribed" and then ended up replacing one drug for another. I have seen it help SOME people in the same way those same some people can be helped with prescription pain killers. However, those people are few and far between. While in the height of my Kratom use I worked at a head shop that sold only Kratom. My clients were there everyday, most of them had conversations with me about their addiction to it, and those who couldn't afford it would beg me for just a little bit to get them through. I literally had a list of people who owed me money for Kratom! I hope you guys do your research before jumping on the Kratom train.
score 1/10
