E19 Troylana Manson - A Heartfelt Conversation With Troylana Manson, Who Recently Lost Her Son Aaron to a Multi-drug Overdose - Coroner Says Kratom is to Blame

The Kratom Guy Show

Life hasn’t been the same for Troylana and her family since April 26th when they lost her son Aaron, who was only 26 years old. Aaron was pursuing his last year of college to receive his bachelor's degree in business when he unexpectedly died at their family home of a multi-drug overdose. The coroner reported Aaron died from a mixed drug toxicity of cocaine, hydromorphone (opioid; brand name Dilaudid), antihistamine, and prescribed anti-anxiety medication Escitalopram (SSRI; brand name Lexapro) and kratom (mitragynine speciosa) overdose. The coroner reported that the levels of mitragynine(MG) were “extreme and fatal.” Also the coroner reported the MG levels were so high that alone without the other substances would have caused an overdose, and the levels were those "associated with fatalities".

I recently had the pleasure of sitting down to have a great conversation with Troylana. I believe this was a very difficult conversation for both of us to have, while at the same time such a pleasure and a relief. The more I spoke with Troylana, a mom on a mission, I got to experience her true nature and kind hearted soul. Troylana opened up so much only to be relieved that she and I were more similar and wanted many of the same things than I ever could have imagined.

We covered a lot in our conversation from learning about Aaron, his pursuits and strengths, along with his struggles with addiction, recovery and anxiety. Her thoughts on harm reduction vs. abstinence. What they know happened along with speculations on that dreadful morning. We go in depth about the coroner's findings along with what modern science says about kratom toxicity and lethal overdoses. We also get into why even after what happened to Aaron Troylana does not want to see a ban on kratom, but rather regulations. As well as why she feels that harm reduction is such a viable way forward and how legalizing all drugs with a safe supply is so important and will ultimately save lives. We get into all of that and more!
