[edit : don't incriminate yourself 
]
On the package it says. "Active at 2-3 grams, very active at 4-5 grams". So I decide to take 4 grams of the strangely smelling powder.
At about 22:00 I started the making of the kratom tea. I put 4.0 grams of powder in a tea bag, placed this in a cup, covering it with hot water and squirted some lemon juice in there. I let it sit for about 5 minutes and repeated the procedure in another cup. I then combined the two filtrates which were approximately 200 mL in total.
At 22:30 I started drinking the tea. I've read many people describe the horrible taste but I didn't find it so bad. Yes it was a little bitter but not that bad. I downed the tea in about 8 mouthfuls over the course of 30 seconds.
T+15m: I'm not feeling anything, obviously because it has only been 15 minutes since I ingested it, but I decide to do a third extraction on the left over powder and I drink this too.
T+30m: I can feel a slight drunkenness. When moving my head it feels like I've had maybe 6 beers but the same mental slowness of alcohol intoxication is not present. I start listening to some music and a lift in mood becomes apparent. Though, when thinking about it later I only think I felt like this since I could feel the drug kicking in and was glad it had worked.
T+45m: Still listening to music. I decide to browse a little on Bluelight.
T+50m: I feel a little dizzy so I discontinue by browsing and lie down in bed. Now the drunk-effect has become more apparent but I'm still maintaining my mental acuity.
T+60m: Same feeling in my head. A little dizzy. I decide to start smoking my joint I had made earlier. I take about 6 puffs on it and put it out since I can't sit straight up because of the dizziness and I lay down in bed again.
T+90m: The same feeling remains. A bit of dizziness when standing up, the slight feeling of drunkenness but no real euphoria.
T+120m: I'm feeling very tired and I decide to go to bed. I smoke some more of my joint and lay down only feeling a remote drunkenness from the kratom and the high from the hash. I'm also feeling a little bit disappointed about the experience but nothing big.
All in all this was pretty boring. Unable to sit at my computer because of the dizziness and lying down in bed watching TV really wasn't that interesting. I'm wondering whether I should try a higher dose but I'm afraid the dizziness will become stronger and this would absolutely not be a pleasant experience, it was bad enough as it was with 4 grams.
I look forward to trying Kava kava.
