Kratom induced anxiety! Anyone? Anyone?

When I drink kratom with my morning cup of coffee my energy levels are through the roof. Makes one cup of coffee feel like 10 cups! When I consume 15 grams of red vein with coffee it feels like an adrenaline overload. Anyone else feel this way?

Does anyone else feel like kratom in large doses gives you an adrenaline overload?
 
I've felt very stimulated by kratom before, but never to the point where it was uncomfortable. Sounds like you took a lot of kratom and drank a considerable amount of caffeine...which is probably why you're really stimulated.

Kratom is related to the adrenergic stimulant alkaloid yohimbine (derived from the herb Yohimbe). It it believed that some of the alkaloids found in kratom function similarly to the alkaloids found in yohimbe, causing kratom's stimulant and sometimes pro-sexual effects.

Different kratom strains from different vendors will have different concentrations of alkaloids, which may explain why the Red Vein you consumed is so stimulating....

Just relax, the stimulation from the kratom should subside soon. :) You have nothing to worry about as far as interactions between caffeine and kratom, but if you're extremely anxious, you could take an anti-anxiety drug such as a benzo?
 
I wouldn't worry too much about it, I've heard that those consuming upwards of an ounce or more in one dose have experienced dizziness not unlike drinking too much, but that too eventually passes.

Edit,, I have tried the Red vein strain, and I did find it Much more stimulating than the other strains I've taken, and I found there to be a slight dizziness about the experience even in Lower doses, ie 5-9 grams.

I personally like this but to each their own, and I would probably never take Kratom in conjunction WITH my morning coffee, not for any reason of interaction but just because I wouldn't enjoy the jitterbugs that would undoubtedly get from it.
 
I think it probably reacts with each person differently. For example I took 10g red vein a few weeks ago, but it worked very similarly to 2g UEI - very sedating and mildly euphoric. I've NEVER gotten a stimulating buzz from Kratom - my experiences have always been sedating.
