Kratom

I think we are allowed to talk about it since its not some kind of bodybuilding drug, right?
Anyway, I just tested it this week for the first time and it takes away all my anxieties.
I really need to test a bit more but it seems to be so super effective.


But i must admit I do also feel a bit high right now but its moree sedating. Anyway any more opinions?
If this is a banned topic I'm sorry.
Everything I post is trash.

It is legal in the US. I would have privately asked a mod prior to making the thread if I wasn’t sure though.

Legal in Miami Beach. They have a bar there called lotus something. My friend bought me that garbadage without telling me what it was, worst taste and feeling ever. Way too relaxed and doesn’t feel great.

Unless you like that, I hated it

Taken it nearly every day for the last 2 and a half years (srs). It's aight but is probably getting labeled as a schedule 1 drug within the year. Stupid.

Legit my favorite thing to take to unwind at the end of the day, srs. Takes away anxiety, boosts mood, but doesn’t make you feel “intoxicated” or high. Just good.

Be warned tho it is kind of psychologically addicting, I used to take it once or twice a week, that got up to 3 days a week, then every other day for over a year, now I take it practically every evening. Just a tsp or two and only at night but still. When it has so few downsides it’s hard to think of a reason NOT to take it, but it does feel better if you skip days.

Only thing I don’t like is it makes you “emotionally blunted” imo. You don’t feel emotions as strongly. So back when I was with my ex I’d make sure to never take it if I was with her and leave it at home on vacations.

It's definitely against military policy and would probably get you an article 15 or worse. It's categorized as an unregulated substance.

I've been dealing with a SUPER painful ankle injury since August.

I tried it for the hell of it. It's amazing and takes away pain in a half hour, at 4 grams.

Meanwhile, it doesn't cause sleepiness or any impairment. Plus, the green kind gives a little energy.

I can't see anything wrong with it at all.

They ought to work on isolating the active ingredient because it's great and seems harmless.

Lol pretty sure that's what they're doing so they can make it illegal to buy and turn it into a prescription medication.

The media is doing a pretty good job of conducting a smear campaign on kratom so don't expect it will be legal for too much longer.

It's definitely not as dangerous as the media and gov like to make it out to be, but it is also not as benign as folks on the internet like to claim. Use it for long enough and you'll absolutely get physically dependent on it. Stay smart and stay safe.

Go to a local tobacco shop and ask for it. I get it in capsule form cause the straight powder made me puke a few times.

It's cheaper online but most places only accept e-checks and crypto these days. Used to buy it by the kilogram with a credit card up until earlier this year.

Extremely is a stretch.

I used 3-5 grams daily for around 8 months, then left it at home for a vacation with my ex. Went several days without it, didn’t have the slightest hint of withdrawal effects.

I've tried different versions of this crap. never noticed a thing. I did try low doses and high doses. With the higher dose, only issue I had was the following day, I couldn't eat a damn thing.

I would only ever recommend it as an alternative to opioids if you're hooked on them. kratom is not harmless. it's addictive, makes you lazy, makes your brain slow, and likely has long-term effects we don't know about. BUT it's much less bad than any pharmaceutical addiction you may have.

don't believe all the sht that says it's harmless and all good. all of the people saying that are the ones selling it.

Honestly.

I hate drugs and barely ever use stuff for headaches.

I have a wound on my ankle that was putting me in MASSIVE pain, like the kind where you can't even make a noise it's so painful. I have opiates by prescription and they work, but make me sleepy, you feel like vomiting if you take too many, and you're all doped up. It's why addicts like opiates, you get high and "dopey" thus the name dope.

Kratom kills the pain excellently, you can't overdose, it doesn't make you dopey, it provides energy instead of taking it, and it provides a sexual boost! I didn't need the sexual boost because of my wound not being very attractive, but the stuff is amazing.

I see it as a miracle substance.

On the other hand, I've used "addictive" substances like cigarettes, and never felt like using them all the time. Kratom is the same way. When my pain is down I don't want to use it, thus it doesn't seem addictive to me.

Banned in some places legal in others akin to CBD


Buy online no retail head shops or herbal shops where they cut with filler and markup


Pharma wants to ban it all


Addiction risk is real tho, tolerance builds up

Try different strains


Drink it with like Coca Cola or some masking liquid bcuz it tastes like green bitter powder

I used it for a few weeks after I did something to my back. Just a spoon into a shaker with some juice. Worked pretty well for me.

Eventually I discovered that I can't digest it very well and had a 2 week ordeal of severe stomach and intestinal pains. ****ting pretty much straight kratom powder. Couldn't eat or drink water without pain. Almost checked myself into the hospital. Did some reading online on some forums, and apparently there's a number of people who had some problems with the typical "toss and wash" method of taking it who ended up with intestinal blockage.

Obviously making tea or something would be a better option in that case.

So two days ago I took 1.5g for the first time. I went to work and and for the first time I felt good beeing there. Had some great talks and my head was clear but still there was this energy that you get when you do something that is really fun.
Normally I am very tense in social settings and uneasy but the whole day was just smooth and for the first time I kind of eyed with girls and I just enjoyed it without anxiety. Today I took it for my sunday walk and it was really relaxing. There is a lot of research to be done when taking kratom, though. There are different strains like greens and reds and whites and they all have different effects on the body/mind.

So far I have ordered 50g white bali vein but tomorrow I order super green. Here in Germany its legal btw which kind of confused me at first because so many things are illegal here.
Everything I post is trash.
