KRATOM

[Sir Burton]

Be careful, shit is addictive and trying to quit can be harder than quitting opiates. I’ve seen someone quitting firsthand and it wasn’t pretty.

there is an entire Reddit forum dedicated to quitting Kratom.

 

[Pittie Petey]

I used it for awhile, for energy and pain relief at work
When I first started it worked great but my tolerance built up pretty quickly so I stopped after several months, had no problem quitting

 

[Sir Burton]

I still don't know how people purchase it.
Does it require a prescription or can you get it at smoke shops?

depends on where you live. Here in MI, it is available in any head shop, vape shop, etc.
in WI it is a Schedule I stilimulant, a felony to possess.

Red, White, or green?

I have experimented with Phenibut and that concerns me. Kratom not so much

how was that? Did you have any issues when you quit (if you did quit)?

 

[CrimsonFan]

if youre on reddit you should look up the sub "quittingkratom" to maybe get an understanding of how much of a pain in the ass it is to stop using kratom after you've been using daily for extended periods of time. It's not as harmless as you may have been lead to believe.

It's best if used recreationally on occasion not as a habitual daily routine.

I have only used Phenibut in low amounts and never felt any withdrawal symptoms. Phenibut is amazing in social situations

It’s available at most smoke shops. Here in New Mexico we actually have Kratom shops with pure k

Addictive yes, but quitting is not that bad. The people who really have issues are people who take a ton like an Oz a day or people who constantly redose through the day. Also those who use extracts. The latter can really mess you up. But taking a few grams even daily should result in little to no withdrawals when stopping.

A friend hyped it up for awhile. All he ever talked about. I went to a smoke shop. Tried what the guy said. Nothing. Next, took more. Never felt a thing… maybe what was being sold was junk?

 

[Drain Bamage]

The fuck is wrong with people nowadays, just smoke some weed

 

[badascan]

I use it recreationally and I have a habitual addiction and something of a physical addiction, nothing that can't be changed easily imo...

I maybe eat (toss n' wash) 5g's 3x a day... It helps with the monotony and brutality of my job... No cognitive or motor skill issues, it just elevates mood and relaxes me...

Heard some bad things about it. Opiates is never a good thing to fuck with unless you’re in pain imo.
Just because it’s weaker and a little more natural doesn’t change that fact

It's not an opiate but it does affect one similarly. Like anything, control it don't allow it to control you...

 

[elreece]

wtf is kratom? sounds like a budget super hero

 

[Uber_Noober]

I don’t even know what it is, I’m done with drinking and teh weeds, I’m not looking to get stuck on something new.

 

[Libertarianism]

Tried the red vein. Made me puke.

Wtf is kratum?

 

[Steve-French]

I will buy some once in a while. I get the train wreck. One of the local pot shops here sells their own bulk. I'll get like 90 capsules for around $14.00. I'll usually eat like 8 capsules before I start cracking some beers. It gives me a pain killer like high. It seems like I only get one really good high from it and if I take more after it starts to wear off it just kind of makes me tired or doesn't really do much.

I save getting fucked up for the weekend, because I'm too old to be going to work hungover so I abstain from everything during the week. I find Kratom to be a fun thing to throw in the mix though. Kratom>Beers>Liquor>Adderall>More beers and Liquor in that order usually makes for a good night

It's a legal herb that people use to substitute for opioids.

Is it like that potpourri that people used to smoke in place of weed?
