I got a free sample of Kratom powder with my Salvia purchase and I'm really interested in trying it. So I'm curious to hear what other people's experiences were on this. What could I expect from Kratom?
did you go to the link I posted? I like kratom a lot. Its one of my favorite plants, and its legal status makes it all the better. Its not a hallucinogen, so dont expect it to be. Its a work drug, meaning it helps you do things you wouldnt normally want to do; lifting, running, standing for long periods of time, etc. It can be stimulating, but also sedating, especially in higher doses. Try it, but dont overdo it. if youre going to eat it, eat it on an empty stomach. I like to mix it in cold water and just drink it down. A lot of people dont like the taste, but I kind of like it. If its too bitter, mix it into hot water, and add sugar and lemon juice. If youre like me, youll get really high the first time, and less high each successive time, unless you take a few weeks between uses. If you smoke weed, do that when youre starting to feel the effects.
Yes I did read the link that you had sent me, thanks. I plan on making the Kratom powder into Kratom tea. I found these 2 methods of making the Kratom tea. One of which mentions how you made your Kratom tea with the lemon juice, etc.. http://www.kratomblog.com/2007/09/several-ways-to-ingest-kratom.html http://www.kratomtincture.com/2008/12/make-kratom-tea-recipe/ Not sure which method I'm going to do, but both sound good.
Kratom is unique because it is the only known drug that is NOT classified as an opiate but will still bind to opoid receptors. They say a low dose gives you energy and a high dose produces an opiate like high. I didn't get the former, if I took a really low dose it just felt like a really low dosed opiate high. The only real use I've ever had though is if I'm really jonesing for some shit, it fights withdraws. Other than that it's not very recreational, I mean it IS legal afterall. But fuck making a tea if it's not that much powder, just toss it in your mouth and wash it down. Make sure you get your free high's worth.
I actually have enough powder to make some tea, possibly even two servings. They gave me a generous sample.
SWIM tried it one time, bought some powder at a head shop. He just mixed it with hot water, and added LOTS of sugar cuz it was real bitter without it. With the sugar it actually tasted somewhat enjoyable, and the high he said felt pretty damn good just didn't last a whole long time. the stuff SWIM got at this headshop was like $20 for that packet which he couldn't afford to do very often, there are much cheaper opiates he can get, just the thing that is so attractive to him about kratom is that he is currently getting drug tested every week and so has to be very careful. I'm sure it could probably be found for cheaper tho somehwer else
