Kratom is often marketed as a “natural” supplement for pain relief and mood enhancement. But this plant-based substance acts on the same brain receptors as opioids — and it can be just as addictive.
Mild In its early stages, kratom addiction may look like taking larger doses than intended or using more frequently, telling yourself it is “just a supplement,” or spending significant money ordering kratom products online. You might notice needing more to achieve the same effect, or feeling irritable when you miss a dose.
Moderate As kratom dependence progresses, the signs become harder to ignore. Opioid-like withdrawal symptoms appear between doses — muscle aches, runny nose, insomnia, and anxiety. You may find yourself hiding your kratom use from family and friends, or rationalizing escalating use because the product is “legal” and “natural.” Daily functioning begins to revolve around dosing schedules.
Severe At this stage, kratom has created significant physical dependence. Withdrawal mirrors opioid withdrawal — severe muscle pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and intense cravings. Weight loss, liver concerns, and depression are common. Multiple failed attempts to quit on your own reinforce the cycle, and the belief that kratom is “harmless” makes it harder to seek help.
If you or a loved one is struggling with kratom dependence at any level, professional treatment can help. Just because it is sold as a supplement does not mean it is safe — recovery begins with a single step.
Most clients begin treatment within 24–48 hours. Call now for a free, confidential consultation.

Supporting someone through addiction is one of the hardest things a family can do. These evidence-based steps can help you take care of both yourself and your loved one.
Kratom addiction is a medical condition that changes brain chemistry — not a lifestyle choice. Because kratom is marketed as “natural,” many users and their families do not recognize the dependence until withdrawal symptoms appear. Understanding that kratom acts on opioid receptors helps you respond with urgency.
Communicate limits with compassion: “I love you, and I won’t participate in behaviors that support your addiction.” Follow through consistently.
Covering for their behavior, making excuses, or shielding them from consequences delays the moment they recognize they need help. Let natural consequences unfold.
Trailhead offers individual family therapy sessions and monthly Zoom education groups covering codependency, family systems, and substance use education. Open to family members 18+.
Your wellbeing matters. Consider therapy for yourself, join a support group like Al-Anon, and maintain your own routines and social connections.
Use “I” statements: “I’m worried about you” rather than “You have a problem.” Choose a calm moment and offer specific help rather than ultimatums.
Our family support program is open to all family members 18+, past and present clients.
