Kratom seriously helping with this quarantine. Any other kratom brahs here?

[NicholasMango]

throw the **** in the trash bro -your future self

Why’s that?

[maverickTT1]

sounds like an expensive habit. 2 grams every 2 hours... how much do you frequent users spend on this stuff. also i have an addictive personality so kinda skeptical

I buy 4 - 250 gr. tubs for $100 at https://www.firstcoastteaco.com/?s=s...&id=1&filter=1

[luckyboy23]

I went and got a couple different bags of capsules at a local shop today because of this thread.


What am I supposed to be experiencing? How much should I take?

I have

Red maeng da
Green Hulu
And Bali

I took 10 caps of the red (I’m pretty sure it’s .5grams each. Might be .6) about at hour ago.


I mean I think I feel something, but it is pretty subtle. Should I take more?


I’m 5’9.5” 198lb

I'm 5'11 220 ( fatboi )

Took 2 capsules of maeng da and i felt that very subtle feeling your talking about. Never got it again.

Took 8 capsules at once on my 3rd try. NADA. Nothing.

What this thread proves is that everybody reacts differently to kratom. I feel nothing and I have absolutely no addiction to it.

I had 60 capsules remaining and I took four almost everyday until they ran out. I literally never felt anything other than that very first time I tried 2 capsules.

I've decided not to waste my money as i've concluded that it does nothing for me. No addiction either. I think there's some placebo effect going on with kratom.


Also to all the dudes who are foaming at the mouth in this thread "OMFG STOP TAKING THAT YOUR GONNA DIE".. Please relax and STFU.

I’ll say this. I used to abuse alcohol hard. I’ve been sober for almost 2 years. About a month ago I tried kratom(red) to wind down at night after work so I didn’t get a desire for a beer. I didn’t need it, but I also don’t feel like I’m fighting cravings after stressful days anymore and it is a nice way to relax.

I’ve not tried any other strain so I can’t speak for that. I also don’t feel cravings waiting between shipments when I run out. I can’t smoke weed because I am in law school and until school starts again I’m driving as a part time job, so any accident I’ll need to take a drug test whether my fault or not. I think kratom is a great thing for those who want to feel good in a safe way

Rip op.

[GaryRidgway]

Just ordered some. I've tried it a few times when I abused ***** and alcohol, but don't remember what it did. I'm excited.

Does it work for ADD, ADHD or social anxiety? I tried Piracetam recently and that helped with my social skills and pretty cheap as well.

Where did you order from

[dopamine72]

I'm glad you're on the logical side of things bro

I think everyone just has to learn the hard way sorry to say...

We all have this "superman" mentality and think we will be fine

In b4 a bunch of miscers experience terrible withdrawals and agree with us

Also I have to agree with that other poster, its amazing how many addicts there are on here

ADD: Probably (Go for white AKA more stimulating strain)
ADHD: Same
SA: Absolutely, 100%, will help.

I don't have ADD/ADHD so can't truly comment on that but for SA it absolutely helps. And in my experience, it helped me even after discontinuation. Use it to teach you that interaction and being a social butterfly is a good and positive thing and not a crutch, and I think it's an awesome tool.

Edit: Also tried piracetam and it helped me but felt a little "stupid" on it. Kratom shouldn't make you feel that way. And to answer your Q about the military earlier, pretty sure it's on the "No-No" list but they will never know via drug test so take that for what it's worth.

I have it super bad. I've never been diagnosed, but I find myself doing something and then something else perks my interest and then I stop doing what I was doing. I'm not dumb, it's just extremely hard to focus hence why college is difficult in general. Really don't want to get on Ritalin or some chit either. And I can talk to people it's more of the initial engagement I need help with.

It's on the OPSS which are prohibited supplements for the military, which I don't think any of them would pop hot anyways. My concern would be it giving a false positive like DMAA did with amphetamines. From what I've been reading, none generates a false positive. Hell it even says on the website that it won't pop positive, but still prohibited. They probably don't even know what Kratom is.

So buy your own at home drug test kit then take kratom wait 24 hours and piss to see if it pops hot. Simple as that.

I have ADHD and I can tell you right now you're better off learning how to deal with it naturally. The best advice I can give is to exercise before doing any type of book work, schoolwork, etc.

[Iluvmud]

Cliffs........ read a few posts but none really directly state what the benefit of taking this chit is....

so, benefits? Dosaged? and reputable brand should I decide to give this a go.

Will rep for answers.

Kratom brah checking in

What made me a believer was i blew my lower back out squatting. I took.. i wanna say 4 over the counter pain killers. Nothing. This was that kind of pain where you are gasping just walking to the bathroom.

I took way too much kratom I had on me. Im normally a powder guy but these were tabs. I took 16 total. The pain was gone. I dont mean it was lessened. I mean it was gone. I take a little big every day. It is like anything else. You dont want to get dependent on it. I have a mild dependency but its manageable. All of the horror stories ive heard are people taking a chit ton. Let me be clear. If you are stupid enough to do this the euphoric and hyper focus effects will no longer be there and you will wake up not functioning well until you have some. I am on a script that starts with “add”. Many days i take 1/3 to 1/6 of my script because its the same deal. Let me repeat this again take it when you need it - if youre dumb enough to take a lot every day youre not going to get euphoria off it anyway and you wont be able to function til you have it every day.

It doesn't really make me feel "high" when I take it. It's a very subtle feeling that feels like a strong cup of coffee that lasts for a few hours. Immediately after taking 2g, I feel super motivated and I get chatty. I'm a tradie so it's perfect for me on the job

[doughnutking]

which strain is best for anxiety?

I'd have to say CBD

im diagnosed and tbh I think the most important thing is making a schedule

if you have work to do you're gonna sit down and do it at the exact same time every single day, if you don't have any work this week left start next weeks

we need structure to succeed, not drugs. Drugs will fix the problem but as someone that has taken all stims money can buy aside from ice they won't provide the motivation you're seeking. So it makes it easier to keep doing stuff when you sit down to do it, when you sit down to do it. Never make yourself sit down and be productive and you're not getting anything done

I definitely agree. I am experimenting with Nootropics, but I don't want to have to rely on this chit forever. I'd like to just naturally do it.

[gottk2x]

just bought a green strain to experiment with..leggooo

[lightsarefallin]

For life-interfering ADHD - working with a psychologist that will help you use organization and technology to your advantage. Apps on your phone, scheduling, daily structure, accountability, etc. With ADHD, it isn't your fault that your brain is 'wired' that way. Managing the symptoms with the above is your best bet. If you need more help - Dextroamphetamine but only at a therapeutic dose. I can't comment about kratom for ADHD. Does it really help? I can see the logic of a white being helpful, but it doesn't act on the same neurotransmitters as Dextroamphetamine would?

There's a lot of back and forth in this thread about irresponsibility, junkies, drug addicts etc. In the end, it's your life and your decision how you run it. If you want to have coffee in the morning to stimulate your brain, do it. If you want to take a bit of kratom because it helps you with motivation or increases you being social, by all means. Like everything, there's potential for abuse, and it isn't just a harmless leaf of a plant. You don't want it to become a crutch you can't live without.

Kratom is meant to add to your already enriched life, not become it.

Also, never forget one thing. If you're taking a substance because you're currently miserable and it makes you feel good, once you stop taking it - you'll be miserable again because you did not effectively address the core issue. I've heard lots of people claim depression once they quit kratom but that depression was there before. If kratom lulls you into this false sense of security, once you stop, that depression will be ten-fold. As difficult as it is, it's a better long term solution to deal with your problems head on rather than trying to slap a bandaid on them. Although, if something like kratom can help you slowly achieve your behavioural goals, that's another thing. That's the reason people take SSRIs after all. SSRIs are one of the most prescribed drugs in the world and their effectiveness has never really been scientifically proven.

[MyBaddBrah]

Why not work on yourself and learn how to be more sociable and motivated naturally instead of relying on a crutch?

That would take work, something 99.9% of people will downright avoid.

[DesiredUserphag]

It's definitely not bad. Roommate just bought some white and green.

[nickh04]

Just took my regular 2g dose with a nice cup of coffee. Gonna bust up some concrete in some dudes backyard today in the rain. Should be fun.

but the question is, are you going to drive yourself there in your 4 runner?

[Lift3d]

Not sure if anyone else mentioned this, but there are zero opioids in kratom. Just alkaloids that bind to the same receptors that opioids do, When they bind to the mu receptors, the body releases it own endogenous morphine (endorphines). You wont pop hot on a piss test. It gets a bad rapp because some people have died with it in their systems and its not that well researched so people have ZERO clue what actual role it plays in the body so who knows if it really had a role in their death? But people still freak out and make that false association that kratom may kill you. But to more directly address your question, it isnt somethign that can be abused really. The high is NO WHERE near that of even a lortab or norco. Its not even somethign you can keep taking to get higher. You'll just make yourself sick and be nauseated for hours on end

Ive taken it for years because of my low back. It doesnt work near as good as the Rxs i use to take, but i also had a chit memory then. I dont have that issue now.

Lol keep thinking that, it can definitely be abused. You have been taking it for years, and think you aren't addicted? I was addicted to painkillers and some kratom I took got me just as high as percs or norcos and the withdrawal was similar but not as severe.

[bemyguest]

Anyone use it in UK?

[DizzySmalls]

Tastes like chit, makes you unable to chit

Finally, another honest opinion and experience. Thanks, got to give it to the newcomers reading this straight with all the facts good and bad.

Thank you for piping in and telling people what's up. I'm in the same situation as you. I take it for a fukd up back and have for years. I left the country after taking it everyday for 2 years. I left it at home and the only adverse reaction I had was the pain that I take it for. The people who get addicted to kratom are the same people who'd be addicted to green plants or coffee. It's not even close to the same as hard drugs.
