Temporary Delay in CTB'ING

[bigj75]

ive been taking kratom for the past 5 years. it seriously saved my life back then. unfortunately my condition has worsened to the point where it can't help me anymore.

feel free to ask me any questions about strains/dosing/effects/tolerance anything really and ill help you out

I haven't been taking it nearly as long as you. where did you purchase yours?

I've been looking into trying Kratom and getting it for my mom as well. She has severe pain and is currently taking opioids which they could possibly take away from her. She's never abused it or taken it when not needed. I hate all these dumb government regulations punishing those who sincerely need the medications to help them live their lives comfortably. The addicts will get it anyway...so just leave it alone. But do they care, or course not! It's not them suffering.

i don't wanna say the specific source, but if i were you i would definitely get it online instead of gas stations/head shops. the quality is a lot better. just read some reviews of the popular vendors and order a few strains from each to find your favorite

Just took 5 grams for breakfast. Hit me full force in about 40 minutes. Feeling good.
I'll take 3 grams with some coffee right before work starts. Then a few more grams before bed to relax and sleep good.

Remember though for beginners don't go over 3 grams per dose.

what would happen if you would decide to not take it for the next 3 days?

For me the effects last into the next day but very subtle. After 3 days I go back to my normal self. No withdrawal symptoms or crazy cravings. I think that's another reason why kratom is so good is that it's not as addicting as hardcore drugs. only thing I've really noticed is that on days i dont take it i feel how sore my body is from working.

green malay had my energy through the roof. I have to take less capsules when it comes to that.

This looks interesting. And from what I've read and what others are saying, this sounds better than anti-depressants.

yes it works wonders for when I'm in a situation and I need my mood and energy lifted.

 

[bigj75]

Drinking it with grapefruit juice is supposed to increase the effects. Im about to experiment with that later this morning.

Anyone know about shipping to the UK?

Kratom is fucking amazing. I've been using it every day for over a year now and it is always effective at lifting my mood and energy. Like seriously, it is by far the most effective antidepressant I've tried and I would 100% be dead without it. I have replaced my morning coffee with a dose of an energizing strain like White Maeng Da (white vein strains are the most energizing, red vein strains are the most sedative), and another boost in the day if needed.

Be careful when first starting out, I threw up a few times when I first started taking it and was a bit overzealous with the dosing. Wait a minimum of 4 hours between doses or else you run the risk of nausea and vomiting.

Try Zamnesia or AvalonMagicPlants. I've ordered from both those places without any issues & fast ship from Netherlands

What's a good dose for your first time taking it?

 

[Kev]

What's a good dose for your first time taking it?

2-3 grams. If your body is prone to nausea or vomiting, stick to 2 grams or under. If you have opioid experience/tolerance and know your body can handle it, you can go higher. Mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine, the main active compounds, act similarly to an opioid, albeit much milder (as in you can't get ridiculously high off of it, but beginners will feel light euphoria), less addictive, and safer. If you know anything about opioids, you know they can cause nausea and vomiting, and so kratom can do the same thing.

One interesting note about kratom dosing is that lower doses (5 grams or under) produce a stimulant effect, while higher doses will induce an opioid-like sedation and relaxation. Since I pretty much use it as like a coffee (fun fact: kratom is actually in the same family of plant as coffee is) to help me with productivity and social situations, I have stuck to consuming a stimulating dose of 3-4 grams every time I take it, even after a year of daily use. One of the best things about kratom is that tolerance does not build much, and unlike traditional opioids and most drugs, you can take the same dose again and again and still feel the same effects. I seriously can't rave enough about this substance, it is a life changer.

Breakfast! Freshly squeezed orange and grapefruit juice. 5 grams of maeng da and 1 gram of malay.

 

[bigj75]

drinking it with coffee is good too.

 

[Idorus]

Shit I hoped to get it today but something went wrong with the delivery... so it might be monday. I already bought 2 of these (they adviced chocolate milk as the very best to mix with powder);

+ 3 different kind of SHAKE cups.

 

[dumbfarang]

beer also potentiates it rly well

Yes, I might do that as well one day. Let's first try the innocence of chocolate milk in a shake cup.

Coffee, energy drinks, beer, and citrus juice are the ones I've heard of that work the best. I've never heard of chocolate milk but that sounds great.

If you do eventually do it with beer be careful on how much alcohol you drink. I always do 1 or 2 beers with kratom and stop. Any more and I'm too fucked up. Feels amazing though.

I was also surprised, literally from their site (incl. exclamation mark) with the image of a scoop cup next to it ;

Our powders are very fine, dissolving in a liquid is the best way. Dissolving in water is more difficult (hot water is better), energy drinks, orange juice, orange or yogi-drink work better. Works best with Chocolate Milk!

Depends on what effect you want.

i go with the meanG da personally.

Yea I thought maeng Da too :)

I'm afraid this is not my thing. For hours I felt on the verge of nausea after ingesting 2,5 g of Green Malay kratom. I had to lay down for 4 hours. It's 8,5 hours ago I took it but still feel a bit nausea prone. It all feels a bit as taking something to deliberately activate a bad case of flu.

I reluctantly will try another strain with half the amount next time, but after that it's done even though I have 7 different strains of 20 g in the sample package.
