I had been waiting 4 days between doses and taking on the fifth, but i wanna take it more if i can get away with it.

I think two days is too soon for a regular dosing don't you think?

Three seems like it could be doable.

Thoughts?
 
From a physical standpoint every other day might be doable. I did this for quite some time, but the psychological part is something different. The more you do the more you want to do and the risk of using daily becomes bigger and bigger. That is why i would limit usage to once a week or less.
 
I use it everyday all the time and once my tolerance is up and the buzz is harder to reach I take several month off then start up again. I know they say never do it back to back but I have just fine...and even taking two weeks off lowers tolerance a lot...even when I am taking it everyday and then decide to stop I don't even really have any cravings. If you're worried about tolerance or buzz, back to back does diminish it greatly, but honestly if you use it regularly or in large doses it will always built tolerance fast...just moderate dose about once a week would be best way to avoid tolerance with breaks every once and a while. Honestly it's more individual preference. I've taken it for years, never addicted and any tolerance I develop I can get rid of with a short break.(:
 
The best way to find out, if you can stand the withdrawal is to actually become addicted to it and then stop. Your attitude to addiction is kinda ironic, because you are overthinking issues, calculate possible scenarios, before the problems even arise. In that way you get all the negative consequences of a substance addiction, before it even started. The problem with a substance addiction is the forced schedule, i.e. loss of freedom. Kratom is a very kind prison guard, nevertheless the bars are massive.
 
Well Im starting to notice it doesnt feel as good now even with once a week. Maybe not cos of tolerance, I think nearly every time Ive had it Ive felt there is a little something missing. Thing is I only take 3-4 grams, but even when ive been at 4 grams i get a hangover I dislike the next day so even tho that is considered not a full dose to get full effects like others would dosing higher I think would just produce more negative side effects so am not inclined to do that.

I guess it depends what Im doing whehter I enjoy it or not. Its best as a sunday/lazy day relaxing in the house or going for a nice walk. In hindsight Iver felt it has been a complete experience when ive also done something enjoyable. But last night it sucked cos i tried it going out to a superficial meat market night-club and it was irritating like the stupid club was trashing my vibe. Similar to how weed is unsuitable for such an environment. Ive actually found it good to go out to the club if i had a good day on kratom and its wearing off, then it feels nice cos i feels nice and refreshed.

My rule of thumb (before I let my guard down and got hooked) was always to take one day off for every dose taken. So if you use it once in the morning one day, you'd take the next day off and if you dosed three times in a day then three days off. You can probably get away with using it a little more frequently than that and still avoid tolerance and withdrawal, but I think then the psychological side of addiction could start to come into play.
