On September 1, 2025

Kratom addiction can quietly take hold, leaving men and women in Tennessee trapped in a cycle of withdrawal, cravings, and shame. Whether you began using kratom to cope with stress, pain, or trauma, Recovery Care of Columbia is here to help. Through safe, effective telemedicine Suboxone treatment, our TeleMAT program has helped over 1,000 Tennesseans find freedom from opioids and kratom without ever stepping foot in a clinic.

What Is Kratom Addiction?

Kratom, a plant-based substance often sold as a “natural” alternative for pain or anxiety relief, has increasingly been linked to addiction, dependence, and dangerous withdrawal symptoms. The DEA has identified kratom as a substance of concern, citing risks for abuse, addiction, and even overdose.

Many people in Columbia, Nashville, Murfreesboro, Clarksville, and Jackson start using kratom casually, but soon find themselves needing more just to feel normal. Left untreated, kratom addiction can spiral into financial struggles, legal problems, broken relationships, and serious health risks—including the risk of overdose or death.

Signs and Symptoms of Kratom Addiction

If you’re unsure whether you or a loved one may be struggling, here are common signs of kratom addiction:

Needing larger amounts of kratom to get the same effect
Feeling sick, anxious, or restless without it
Spending money on kratom instead of bills or family needs
Hiding use from loved ones or coworkers
Wanting to quit but unable to stop

Why Kratom Addiction Requires Professional Treatment

Unlike quitting caffeine or nicotine, kratom withdrawal can be painful and dangerous. Symptoms may include:

Severe anxiety or depression
Muscle aches, sweating, and insomnia
Cravings that make relapse almost certain

Without treatment, people often find themselves trapped in a cycle of use and withdrawal. The good news? Suboxone virtually eliminates withdrawal and cravings—allowing you to regain control and focus on rebuilding your life.

FAQs About Kratom Addiction

What makes kratom addictive?

Kratom acts on the same opioid receptors as drugs like oxycodone, heroin, and fentanyl. Over time, this creates dependence and painful withdrawals.

Can Suboxone help with kratom addiction?

Yes. Suboxone reduces withdrawal symptoms and cravings from kratom, just like it does for other opioids.

Is virtual treatment really effective?

Absolutely. Studies show telemedicine addiction treatment is just as effective as in-person care, and our clinic has helped over 1,000 patients prove it works.

Do I need insurance?

No. We accept TennCare, commercial insurance, and offer affordable self-pay treatment.

What if I’m ashamed to ask for help?

You’re not alone. Many of our patients felt the same way. Our staff—many of whom are in recovery themselves—offer compassion, understanding, and zero judgment.
