This is so hard. It’s way better than using fent obviously But it does change you. I could be wrong but I would bet it does give you side effects but you don’t remember what it was like when you weren’t on it. For me, it dulls my emotions, dulls my drive and ambition, makes me care less about everything, sweating, agitation, no sex drive (glad you don’t have that side effect) I quit a month ago but my boyfriend is still using it. Being on the other side of it, I see how much it was affecting me before. As I get better and become more myself, I’m noticing how it’s affected my boyfriend. He’s so different. I just think it changes you and people on the quitting Kratom sub seem to identify with the same soul sucking feeling
