I use kratom for maintenance at doses of 6-8g usually 3x/day, though ranging btw 2 to 4. Rarely do I take it for fun, and so I wanted to test my tolerance level against a drug that has supplanted heroin as the number one street opioid, Fentanyl.
It was years ago that I took pharmaceutical fentanyl and one of those times was a patch for detoxing. I couldn't remember if I had liked it the other time, a single dose ampule for IM admin
I took it under my tongue 3-4 times a day and felt very little euphoria or much of anything except sedation. On the second and third day I felt a little bit worse for wear. Even though I had enough for 5 days I quit after day 3, when waking up I was struck by the familiar feeling that I hadn't had in years, the beginnings of real dope sickness, real craving. But taking Fentanyl strangely doesn't seem to satiate anything other than a desire to erase that feeling. It's the poison and the antidote ... As such it seems like the perfect drug of control.
On the morning of day 4 I had to take 10 grams of Kratom supplemented by liquid concentrate and I still felt unwell. It's taken 3 days to return to my Baseline. Since I didn't enjoy the intoxication it produced it wasn't even a question of pain v. pleasure. Fentanyl seems like a balancing act between the unacceptable and the intolerable.
Fortunately I was alone much of the time, because fentanyl might be the ideal social distancing drug
