Anyone else have a buying addiction?

[RumRunner]

I have a stockpile and then some. I tell myself I don’t need any, but go and buy some more.
I rationalize it........
It’s fire, I need more. May not be around much longer.
The Indo ban is coming.
My go-to seller is 20% off

I know I’m not the only one .
Be honest.

[Lambeezy]

Yes and it got worse when I joined this forum

Indo ain't banning it anytime soon, could be more local and State bans though.

[instantKARMA]

No addiction here, I literally have 50+ kilos in my stash and I'm still buying!
Seriously!

[herbalhippie]

I just filled my tenth bin and each bin holds about 6 kilos I think.

Is there a point where enough is enough?

[CatfatherB]

I think we're fine,guys
There's a difference in dependence and addiction

[jabro70]

Yeah, I think KBD is pretty rampant around here. I’ve got it bad.

Been on a buying spree lately that has led to so much new kratom it'll take me months to try it all

[pray4peace4]

When the FDA effectively stops all shipments into the US, you guys & gals will be the only remaining source inside the country. You can charge whatever you want. So keep buying. You're saving America.

That's all I needed to hear.

Click click click thank you for your order!

Lmfao!!
Yea, I keep telling myself I'm done. My wife doesn't even say anything anymore. Then I think well shit I spent way more money on pain pills. What's another $100. It ain't gonna go bad. Lol

[KurtisCards]

I always tell myself i need to stock up in case of a ban, but I don't think i could buy enough to last the rest of my life (Currently 29) So i'm shooting to just always have enough to do a crazy slow taper haha

[Klubbs]

After I joined this group, I learned to stock up when there is good leaf going around. Therefore, I became addicted to buying haha

[WhiteAngelica]

I had a major buying addiction and so I started to sell my stash and it became a sellinh addiction instead! Both make me happy. I sold off my late 2017 collectioj, which cost me around 5k. It was a time of panic buying; every day it was rumored that a ban was immediately forthcoming.

Unfortunately, it was the last of the money I'd saved while working and now I'm living on disability, barely able and sometimes unable--to get the kratom I buy on the 1st of the month to last the rest of the month. Since I take it for the chronic pain that comes as a result of my rare congenital disease that no one has ever heard of, if I run out before the first of the next month, I can't even function.

Addicted to buying it, selling it, reading about it via the forums--all of it. I mean, it is a passion of mine, an interest and a political stance--but as someone who has regularly enjoyed kratom for about 7 years and having moved from riches (not really, but you know) to rags, I want to try new things and diversify my collection. Hell, I want to even have a collection and if I could, I would have orders coming in all the time. Being chronically ill sucks, but I feel better shopping for, purchasing, and the moment USPS notes that it has been delivered. It adds light to a situation that blows. I have to budget how much I order and from whom, so it does limit my options.

Do I wish I didn't sell my panic room stash? Definitely not all of it, but I was addicted to the process of selling it and stupidly saved none.

I am always now tryong to see if I can cram some extra kratom into my already stringent budget. Now I collect wishlists for myself and window shop. When the holidays hit, I will only ask for Kratom. It honestly makes me happier than anything else right now. If I got anothet 5K, I would spend at least half on kratom and then make sure the lights stayed on and the landlord was satiated. If I had a credit card, I'd be purchasing left and right. There are merchants I can no longer afford but I'd like to revisit them, but hell, now my orders are a bit smaller than my 24/7 chronic pain. I would actually take the opiods if I ran out, but that isn't an option. I have to make it last and usually stick to reds because they help the pain the most, but I love Yellow Vietnam and SuperGreen #3 and Green Monster...

But I am greedy.
I am also addicted to purchasing.
I don't feel guilty.
I find it totally justifiable. Some people spend their money on tech gadgets and cars and symbols of status. Mine is on the best plant in the universe. And when I run out at the end of the month and then make an order on the 1st of the month, I am so excited that I could nearly pee myself.
I wouldn't feel bad about that, either. It would be 'the pee of joy'. Luckily, I can wait and when it does arrive, I have more gratitude than I've ever known.

WhiteAngelica is longwinded as hell!

ps, if anyone is feeling charitable or is selling stuff discount, I'm an interested gimp & totally down. I am no kratom beggar, but I'm the kratomite equivalent of a middle aged stay at home with her thick & messy clippings of coupons holding up the supermarket line. Only here there is no line, except the financial one I begrudgingly draw in the sand.

People's stash pictures = my pornography. I LOVE THEM.

I think it happens to us all, hard to not with potential bans and inconsistency sometimes. I have quite a bit too.

Yes I cant get enough and since my hubby's 110 percent behind this "collection "I have no guilt plus you just never know what's going to happen.So whenever I find something I like I buy twice as much.
