I used to take kratom to make it through the work day because of back pain. It's great for pain. Like taking a Percocet or Vicodin but it makes you less loopy feeling and it's a lot less addictive.

But lately I haven't been in pain TBH. I just take it on workdays now because it puts me in a good mood so I seem friendlier to the customers. I don't find it to be habit forming and I don't think about taking it at all on my days off.
