taking just two tablespoons of regular powdered leaf every night. Its not enough to provide any euphoria
Holy #$@! I have quite a bit of experience with kratom in the last 6 months since starting to use it. I have done it at least 50 times now with the maximum amount I used in a day being maybe about 20 grams. Anyhow I was quite addicted a few times,and just quit again about a week ago,after only a 3 day binge because on the last morning I couldnt get out of bed until about 2:00 due to feeling so horrible. Anyhow a few days later I was feeling rather depressed,probably from withdrawls, so I thought I would try another dose of kratom again,telling myself that I wouldnt do it more than one day in a row to see if that would make it easier to deal with. Around ten oclock after vaping weed with a couple buddys and feeling pretty good, I went to Starbucks to grab a green tea frappacinno. This is my favorite thing to mix my kratom into. The green tea really blends well with the kratom,since the matcha powder is also powdered leaf,and green tea has very relaxing qualities as well. I mixed about 1 1/2 Tbsps in very thoroughly and started feeling really great within minutes after starting to drink it . I wasnt expecting much by the way,because this particular kratom I had didnt get me very high before,so I just stuck it in a drawer in case of emergency,like bad withdrawls. I should also mention that I drank a small bottle of grapefruit cocktail(sweetend with sugar) ,because I have read that it can potentiate drugs like kratom. Anyhow I ended up getting higher than Ive ever been on kratom that night,it was totally awesome,mentally ,spiritually and physically too. I was so high I didnt sleep at all that night,and still felt pretty good the next day for someone with no sleep. It was like an amazing revelation . I would therefore very strongly recommend anyone using kratom to try grapefruit juice next time. I would also recommend to keep your doses low like under 10 grams,and not to dose more than once in a day. These things will help keep your tolerence down,and besides the more you do the more likely you will get sick. Aside from my stomach issues,my heavy usage also affected my sleep very badly and this is why I would have a brutal time getting up in the morning. Even though I still liked the buzz,the negatives just werent worth the positives. Anyhow I think I am on the right path now,since I now have a very serious respect for this incredible plant,and will no longer be taking any more than I know I can handle. I have been using small amounts daily for the past several days,usually around 5:00 . I dont want to take it earlier,because I want to stay busy during the day,and I dont want to take it late,because I want to be coming down,when I am ready to go to sleep so I know I will get a decent REM stage sleep. Hopefully people reading this who are using kratom or want to try kratom will heed this advice ,or some of it anyhow and come back and let us know what you think.
