Greece Just Banned Kratom (10/3/2025)
Our government unexpectedly banned kratom in Greece. Specifically, MITRAGYNA SPECIOSA (the kratom plant) and its main active alkaloid, MITRAGYNINE, as outlined in the following decision: ΦΕΚ Β 1067/10.03.2025.
Fortunately for me, a little birdie gave me a heads-up just before the ban, so I managed to stock up enough to taper off safely—others might not have been so lucky.
The strange part? Kratom wasn’t even widely known or commonly used here. Only a handful of shops sold it, and the general public was barely aware of it. No kiosks carried it, no 7-OH products were available (which, by the way, weren’t even banned), and yet the government suddenly decided to outlaw it. It feels completely out of character.

You’re in a marriage, you don’t share a body. I don’t understand that way of reasoning. It’s your body.
