Kratom use has surged across the United States, with an estimated 1.7 million Americans reporting past-year use. The FDA has issued multiple warnings about kratom’s addictive potential and safety risks, yet it remains unregulated as a controlled substance at the federal level.
Poison control centers have seen a 52-fold increase in kratom-related calls over the past decade. Despite being marketed as a “natural” supplement, kratom acts on opioid receptors and produces real physical dependence. An estimated 80% of people who try to quit kratom on their own relapse without professional support.
These numbers reflect a growing crisis that touches families in Salem, Derry, Nashua, Manchester, and across New Hampshire — people who need access to compassionate, evidence-based treatment for a substance many still don’t recognize as addictive.

Understand that kratom addiction is a medical condition, not a moral failing. Kratom acts on opioid receptors in the brain, creating real physical dependence. Learn why willpower alone isn’t enough, especially for a substance marketed as “natural” and “safe.” Knowledge reduces stigma and helps you respond with compassion rather than frustration.
There’s a difference between supporting someone and enabling their behavior. Stop minimizing their kratom use as “just an herb” or making excuses. Enabling delays the moment they recognize they need help. Instead, express concern honestly about what you’ve observed.
Communicate clear limits: “I love you, and I won’t participate in behaviors that support your addiction.” Follow through consistently. Boundaries protect your wellbeing and can motivate change.
Choose a time when they’re sober. Use “I” statements: “I’m worried about you” rather than “You have a problem.” Offer specific help — like calling Trailhead together or driving them to their first appointment.
Your mental health matters too. Consider therapy for yourself, join a support group like Al-Anon, and maintain your own routines. You can’t pour from an empty cup.
Our family support program is open to all family members 18+, past and present clients. We offer individual family therapy sessions and monthly Zoom education groups covering codependency, family systems, and substance use education.
Call for Family SupportIt’s common for people struggling with kratom addiction to resist treatment — especially because many believe kratom “isn’t a real drug.” This doesn’t mean recovery is impossible — it means a different approach may be needed.
Our family support program provides education and community for anyone affected by a loved one’s kratom addiction.
Topics include codependency, family systems, substance use education, and building a recovery-supportive home.
