Episode notes
From Heroin To Kratom's Turning Point
- Libby smoked black tar heroin in the past but never injected, and avoided injecting because she knew it would be irreversible for her.
- She later recognized that kratom extract shots produced the same point-of-no-return effect she remembered from opiates.
Extracts Multiply Kratom Risk
- Kratom extracts escalate addiction risk compared with powders or capsules and can rapidly worsen dependence.
- Libby and others described extracts as matching the intensity of opiates and accelerating the downward spiral.
Don't Upgrade To Extracts
- Avoid moving from powder to extract shots if you suspect dependence, because extracts can rapidly deepen addiction.
- If you use kratom consciously, track strains and dose to minimize escalation and consult help early if dependence appears.
