Kratom is derived from the leaves of the Mitragyna speciosa tree and contains two psychoactive alkaloids: mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine. These compounds bind to opioid receptors in the brain, producing both stimulating and sedating effects depending on the dosage.
Common Effects of Kratom Include
‣ Increased energy or alertness (low doses)
‣ Sedation and pain relief (high doses)
‣ Euphoria
‣ Calmness or relaxation
‣ Reduced anxiety
Despite being promoted as a legal alternative to opioids, kratom can lead to dependency, withdrawal symptoms, and long-term health risks, especially when used daily or in high quantities.
Yes. Kratom affects the brain’s reward system in ways similar to opioids, and repeated use can result in physical and psychological dependence. Over time, users may find themselves needing more kratom to achieve the same effects—a classic sign of tolerance and addiction.
People Addicted to Kratom Often Experience
‣ Cravings and compulsive use
‣ Difficulty stopping use despite consequences
‣ Neglect of work, school, or personal responsibilities
‣ Anxiety or irritability when not using
‣ Withdrawal symptoms when trying to quit
If you or a loved one is experiencing these signs, it’s important to seek professional help. Our kratom addiction treatment in Mesa, AZ offers a safe and supportive path toward lasting recovery.
Kratom withdrawal can be challenging and uncomfortable, especially after long-term or heavy use. While it may not be as severe as opioid withdrawal, symptoms can still interfere with daily functioning and trigger relapse if not properly managed.
Common Kratom Withdrawal Symptoms Include
‣ Muscle aches and joint pain
‣ Insomnia or disturbed sleep
‣ Irritability or agitation
‣ Depression and anxiety
‣ Nausea or gastrointestinal upset
‣ Sweating and chills
‣ Intense cravings
At Hope & Healing, we offer ambulatory detox support to help clients safely navigate the withdrawal process. Our trauma-informed care team ensures that clients feel supported physically, emotionally, and psychologically during this critical stage of recovery.
Our treatment philosophy is rooted in the belief that addiction is often linked to unresolved trauma, emotional pain, or mental health conditions. That’s why all of our programs integrate trauma-informed rehab principles to address the whole person—not just the symptoms of addiction.
