I sweart there must be genes or something for addiciton. My wife has a lot of medical issues and both of our experience with opiates is they don’t really seem to work and have no idea why people get addicted. When you have surgery they will like allow you to pee when the pain untreated would not allow it but it makes you feel crappy in tandem with any pain relief. We tried kratom and bought a fairly large amount. Ugh using it up sucked. Because its aweful to drink. Neither one of us saw much effect unless we had some alcohol with it and even then it was hard to say if it was not like psychological. We actually would love to try marijuana with her but its a large expense especially if your skeptical about it working and only want to try it out without committing to taking it regularly. Our society is screwy.
