Kratom is fantastic

Heard of Kratom for a while but decided to try it and my goodness it's good.
Like a legal opiate / stimulate all in one.

Who else has tried it? It is addicting though so keep that mind.

1.5g to 2.25g is all I need to get right.

Depending on substances to feel better, or to find fun, makes you grow weak.

The extract is the only kind worth using.

Have not used it in forever. Just haven't thought about it. It was nice, but it didn't take a bite out of me or anything.

Yeah, I started experimenting with it a few weeks ago. I've stuck to only using some on the weekends. When I take it I usually end up doing a fuk ton of cardio on it.

Obviously use some sense. Don't be like the reddit cucks that are taking it every day, multiple doses a day. I've seen people mention some completely absurd daily amounts too. That's obviously not a great approach.

Just started using the Maenga Da capsules and powder and Red Kali.

Maenga da is the ****, makes me go harder in the workouts. Less pain and fatigue for sure.

Interesting that people using it for workouts, I couldn't it's far to sedating for me.
yeah the tards on reddit are basically junkies using an ounce a day and then wonder why they are having withdrawals.

Reds don't sedate me any more or less than a green. I am yet to try a white or yellow which I do have on order from a smaller supplier with better stuff.

Reds sedate you?

Def do not abuse it, it is addicting & just because it's a plant and natural does not make it safe.

Oh yeah man I will vouch for the pain Kratom removes all pain from my body, I have alot of sports injuries and chronic knee & leg pains and on kratom it's gone and I can actually sleep without being woken by pain every day at 6am.

That's what they say, idk. I got a couple free 50g sample packs of red, but have only tried it once. I normally take green, or the other one I've been using is "trainwreck" which I guess is a combo (of what exactly I'm not even sure).

It definitely works for pain and ailments even in low doses

Stuff gets me very euphoric and high, its like a poor mans speed ball

Just don't take it every day or you will get withdrawals

Took me about a month to feel normal again after quitting it cold turkey with acute withdrawals

Don't think I'll ever touch the stuff again remembering the hell of WD

Started @ 5 grams a day and worked up to 30-40 grams a day

A few months strait then cold turkey

The problem was I got used to it, I gained a massive tolerance, then it stopped working

I could take 10 grams and feel good for a couple hours then feel like crap the rest of the day

Stuff wore off FAST and cold sweats/chits came on shortly after it wore off

See do things right and you'll lessen the chance of the above, I used it on and off for 7 years, never had a tolerance and quit without any sort of withdrawal, abusing things is bad

I’ve been using kratom for years.


https://earthkratom.com/kratom-strai...eng-da-kratom/

This is the best brand money can buy (srs) I buy a kilo of the powder at a time! Mix it with orange juice and you can’t taste it. Also acid makes it stronger. Kratom is the GOAT I take it every single dat and only this brand.



I would only buy this brand you’ll notice after using it for a while headshops etc carry nasty **** with tons of chemicals still in it and it’ll make you sick using their nasty **** (srs)

Recently ordered some and am currently experimenting with dosages. 1.5 seems to put me in a mildly euphoric state. Probably would synergize well with caffeine. Do you guys prefer it at night or in the am?

How much you taking a day and for how long you been on it? Withdrawals and addiction won't be fun man.

Link does not work and I never heard of earth kratom, I am in Canada so I am restricted to certain companies and up here Kratom is not allowed to be marketed or sold for human consumption.
My first supplier was Happy Hippo and despite the price it seems great.

Ordered some from here, I will see how it goes. They have good feedback online.

I usually sip my kratom and coffee, it's a good combo. 1.5g - 3g is a decent range.

With kratom less is more. Your doses shouldn't be more than 5gs even if you have a high tolerance. I take it like a preworkout

It's not an opiate, it just stimulates those receptors.

It can be nice but be careful not to take too much, like any other substance. Take breaks and weigh out your doses. I always found it really helped with focus, energy, motivation, and increased empathy. I recall genuinely wanting to work on stuff, even the most mundane task, when it kicked in. I went through an intense period of extremely high stress years back and I discovered kratom. I'd say it really helped, although I started leaning on it way too much at some point and got some nasty symptoms when I stopped.

Moderation is key!

I tried it. Never got dosing right. Didn’t really feel much. Phenibut was better for me in high doses.

I’ll just grab a delta 8 gummy from a smoke shop now if I really want to relax. Tolerance is super quick with those though.

Hits me like an opiate, I was a painkiller addict so I know a thing or to about that.
I am also one of the lucky few where opiates hit me like a freight train and almost cannot build a tolerance, which is likely why Kratom also hits me so hard.

Just to clarify, an opiate means from poppy, an opioid is just something that targets those receptors and most likely synthetic or partially, kratom is neither
