Kratom The Kratom Megathread

a few quick questions - this thread is really long so my questions may have already been answered. if so, i apologize for being a pain.

is it normal to run super hot and super cold? this is a new substance for me and i'm flying solo - no big brother to guide me on this one. i'm either sweating and shaking or shivering in cold. is this a typical side effect?

also, i've done a fair amount of research, but if there's anything you guys want to throw out that i should absolutely know right away - i'd be grateful if you shared! THANKS!! :)


edit: and also the itching, that pretty standard?

I'm just throwing this out there, are you diabetic? Can you check your blood sugars during use?
 
yes, i take B supplements. i would think that pesticides were a possibility, but this happens with both vendors i've had. are the b complex vitamins an unfortunate interaction?
Yup, most definitely!!!

I took Vit. B while taking kratom and started having panic attacks, shivers, weird dizzy feelings in my head, and almost had a seizure. The two dont mix for some reason, I dont know why. But when I stopped the Vit. B everything went away.

Try cutting out Vit. B for a month and see if everything goes away. It takes at least 2 weeks for vit. B to completely leave your system

I'm having no prob using B12-supplements while using kratom.

Btw, i was wondering why i'm so horny these days and just today i read that during opiate-withdrawal there's a possible surge in sex-drive. Oh hell, yeah, there is, since i stopped taking kratom 8 days ago and from approx. day 3-4 i noticed a massive increase in libido which is even increasing now. Crazy shit. I could swear i wasn't that horny for years. Have taken Tramadol for the past 5 days, low dosed, who knows what happens if i'm skipping that, what is what i'll do from today on.

Ladies, here i come ;)

B-12 is just one of the vit. B-complex vitamins. The others are:

Thiamine (B1)
Riboflavin (B2)
Niacin (B3)
Pyridoxine (B6)
Folic acid (B9)
Biotin (B7)
Pantothenic acid (B5)

I'm guessing if you took the complete complex + kratom you too would start getting weird side-effects

wow, who would've thought? thanks for the info - i will definitely try skipping my B supplement. %)
Can you report back in a few weeks and let us know if it made a difference??
 
^weird, what was it like?
Really, really strange spacey feeling in my head followed by some panic attacks. I'm still not 100% sure it was the Vit. B's, but since I cut them out the weird side-effects seem to have subsided somewhat. I also take DLPA, which I've now stopped. So maybe that added to it as well.

Or maybe I fried my brain neurons, thats also possible
 
Does DLPA affect serotonin? I took 100mg 5-htp with kratom before and it was horrible, waves of terrible feelings and depression instead of the normal great feeling of kratom. I would avoid taking anything that affects serotonin with kratom. Did you take any psychedelics or weed? That could explain the spacey feeling and panic attacks. Although sometimes kratom makes me a bit anxious by itself, especially with green malay.

I know for sure DLPA increases norepinephrine and endorphins. I dunno about serotonin though. Maybe I just got an overload of endorphins, since kratom also releases endorphins

EDIT: this site claims it does release serotonin. But I dont know how reliable their info is:

DLPA also helps the body release serotonin. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter, and when it's low it may leave you with a bad mood, poor concentration, and a headache. Serotonin is our natural mood stabilizer, sleep promoter, and mind-focusing chemical if we have enough of all four, our emotions are stable
 
Maybe it does have something to do with serotonin, although Ive never had any problems. Ive taken kratom with vitamins (multivitamins, and the kirkland pack from CostCo with like 8 different pills), mushrooms, ssri's, and ectasy with the latter acting pretty hard on serotonin. People differ, maybe some people are more sensitive to it...

On another topic: I've noticed that if I don't drink enough water while using kratom that I get mega-agitation and rage. If I piss dark yellow, I know why I'm off my rocker. A couple of tall glasses of water then make me feel a lot better. Anyone else noticed something like this?
 
I havent personally, but i find water to increase effects, also eating like 10 mins taker taking it helps a TON. I think it kinda makes your body recognize it as nutrients.
