I just had a google push notification news story pop up that stated “27 year old mother on life support after taking kratom for 1 week”. I read the article, then googled “Amanda Goodsell Kratom” and the results are wild. The same story is being published by literally 20+ local news websites. I’ll try to post pics in the post as a comment.

I've been taking a product that has mit and msg15 (7s) and they banned it in florida.

I only have a few left

Powdered kratom is still available(and i have some bup3)...

What to do?

People with experience PLEASE weigh in i need help!

Thank you in advance!

This website shows toxicology reports if people’s OD was blamed on kratom it shows all the other drugs in their system. Do you see a pattern they blame it on a drug not the other lethal doses. Check it out autopsy’s being added daily

After 4-5 years of taking kratom daily my dose was up to 45 pills (000 size) I weighed them and they were 800mg each so like 36 grams. One dose per day.

I couldn’t keep going like this. I remember when I started Kratom. 1 pill is all I needed. Then. 5, 10,20 etc

I was able to get my dose controlled a little bit from 45 down to about 32 but still it’s too much. I take it for chronic pain and I was very worried if I took less I would get less pain relief

I went down to 25 capsules on Monday and I didn’t notice any difference vs 32

Today I went down to 20 and the same thing. Really no difference.

I’m going to keep going down as long as my pain relief is there and see how low I can go

So it’s just a PSA. If your dose is getting out of control don’t be scared like I was. Just force yourself lower. It will save you money and it really was not fun swallowing 45 pills . Or 32. 20 still isn’t fun I’m going to try to go lower. People always said less is more but I never believed them. I always thought more is more!

So I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with kratom tea withdrawal vs powder?

Does the withdrawal kick in faster with the tea?

So for anyone middle age+ (I am 54.)

How is your blood pressure?

Mine has been high off and on as of late.

Any of you folks who take it for chronic pain, have to manage high blood pressure and you think it’s related to Kratom use?

I thgouht after doing some research that I could decrease my 10 mg Percocet after surgery by doing my kratom at night instead. Last night at 7 I took my kratom. Felt pretty good and energetic. I took another dose at 4 am. Felt sweaty and chills like withdrawal starting at 7. I got up and had some loose bms. I took my my 7 am dose of Percocet and I felt a tiny bit better but not much. Then I took my 11 am dose and still felt pretty much nothing. I guess I answered my own questions about kratom taking up all the mu receptors so pain meds don't work as well. My question is what time today should I try to take my Percocet again? I'll suffer through the day as long as I can but I'm in pain and being thrown into withdrawals. When I had surgery I discontinued my kratom at 12 pm the night before and I felt the pain meds they gave me after surgery well enough. Would 4 pm be enough of a separation from the kratom to try again?

I have limited experience with Kratom. I went through a decent sized bag of the leafy stuff last year and it was always pleasant enough. I forget the dosage, but it wasn't high and I enjoyed it a few nights a week until it was gone.

Then a month ago I tried a Kratom shot from the gas station and the effects were mild and seemed fleeting but were overall good. I was thinking of taking another one of those shots about an hour before I get my wisdom teeth pulled with local anesthetic.

Does that seem like a reasonable thing to do? The numbing stuff they use at the dentist never seems to fully get rid of the pain for me at the dentist and when I tell them that, they jab extra into me and it doesn't seem to make a difference; it just leaves me extra sore later in the day.

I know sedation is an option but my insurance doesn't cover that and I'm not willing to put it on my credit card.

Long story short, I need some advice. I have severe dental anxiety, I'm having a full mouth extraction on Tuesday and I'm worried about potential drug interactions. I take about 20-30 gpd of kratom. Today I'm gonna take half of that and tomorrow try to take less of what I take today. Long story short should I skip my dose completely tomorrow and just suck up the WDs? Or just not dose at all on day of Thursday to avoid interactions? Has anyone ever had experience with these two at all? Need my mind at ease.

For those of you that vacuum seal your powder, is there a particular sealer and/ or bags that work better than others?

I didn't realize vacuum sealers were so expensive! Yikes

Hi All, I was introduced to Kratom several months ago, unfortunately directly to 7-HMG, and have been using it to alleviate my Tourettes syndrome and psychiatric disorders with a lot of success. But with the impending scheduling and general need-to financially I'm working on switching over to kratom leaf/powder, and straight mitragynine when absolutely needed. I was a low-dosage user of 7, typically 4 doses of 5mg spread throughout the day, stabilized for the entire time I used it so the switch isn't very hard for me, but it's an adjustment since I gotta figure out what strain/color is best for my specific circumstance. So there comes my question, anyone is experienced, what strain/color is best for anti-anxiety / mood-enhancement/stimulation? Right now I'm using Green Maeng Da.

Ich hatte beim letzten Test bereits 7 Tage kein Kratom mehr genommen. Beim Speicheltest aus dem Labor war der test trotzdem positiv auf Mitragynin bei einem Cut-off Wert von 5 ng pro ml.

Das Labor sagte das ist ungewöhnlich aber kann vorkommen. Heute, 21 Tage nach dem letzten Konsum habe ich einen weiteren Test gemacht auf Anordnung. Ich hoffe es ist jetzt endlich alles negativ.

So I’m going to Denver for a few days. I saw that Denver specifically had banned kratom this isn’t marked as being “not for human consumption”.

I bought a small bottle of Red Vein Bali kratom capsules. I was thinking of just packing it in my checked luggage. But with Denver’s law, should I be concerned since mine is not marked “not for human consumption”?

Anyone know the legality of this? Got a trip coming up flying from a legal state to another legal state from east coast to west coast but there is a layover in an illegal state (Tennessee).

Hello! I am 30f in chronic pain for 2 months. Doctors all seem to think it’s intramuscular and the pain varies from day to day. For example; Friday I was working out with mild pangs and today I’m considering the ER for pain relief. I have been drinking green monkey strain pre-brewed from my local Kava Bar- they said they tested each small tea at about 45mg. It’s never synthetic as far as I’m told. I have to drink 3-4 to begin to feel the effects. It’s a bit of a drive and expensive in comparison to other vendors; however I’m highly apprehensive on buying powder or pill form. Can someone educate me and possibly help dose me or point me in the right direction? In cle Ohio where it’s legal.

Kratom just for partying on night every weekend? : r/kratom

Update: Kratom is changing my life! : r/kratom

Hi everyone, so want to give my update of my use of Kratom.

As I posted before I've been using it only for nightlife, since I'm a nightlife guy and really wanted to quit alcohol which was ruining my life.

I can tell you it continues to do wonders. I have zero need to drink alcohol now, don't even feel the urge at all which is the best outcome. People keep trying to buy me drinks, but it isn't a "I must not," more like "Nah, I'm not interested at all."

I did switch from the tincture to the gummies this weekend, though, as I feel the gummies gave me that awesome boost for nightlife without the stomach issues and overall, just easier since the tincture can get really annoying - it's more practical. And still, I don't feel like using it at all during the weekday I'm pretty good mentally during the weekday, so it's just a friday/saturday thing.

I have a two month travel trip soon, and I'm excited after 51 countries not to drink. I've had chaos happen when drunk, blow through money... gonna take my gummies and it should be even a more memorable trip.

I'm saving money, don't have hangovers, working out, lost 5 pounds in the past month, connecting more with people, better mood... it's a completely different world.

My mom really wanted me to stay safe and quit drinking, when she passed away due to her battle with ALS I drank like crazy and spiraling, even during her ALS even if i was with her she worried when I would arrive the weekends blacked out drunk. I've wanted to change for years, but didn't have an alternative. I did promise her... "Mom, it's okay, I'm gonna be okay." And I'm telling you... she would be so proud right now!

Regular kratom will become schedule 1 across the US starting August 6th due to the federal analogue act scheduling 7, em gee em and pseudo.

I’m taking about 2 grams (4 capsules) of ultra enhanced indo (UEI) each time I take a dose, but how many hours should I go between does?

I am flying to Cancun in a few months and am worried about bringing my Kratom. I use the pressed pills (green vein) and am planning on just putting the bottle in my carry on. Has anyone had experience with traveling to Mexico lately? I am just worried about flying to another country with it.

i do not use regularly but i noticed my tolerance went up quite high to the point where i need 2-3 cups of kratom tea to feel something.
i use preferably red kratom even though i had some nice but different experience with the green strains.
when i get a 200g bag it can happen that i use daily for a couple days to a week.
often i take a month or plus brakes yet still it doesnt feel as my tolerance goes down sadly

About myself,

I’m 21, smoke weed rarely, use nicotine pouches (the ones you place in your mouth), realised my tolerance was f*d in a week and caffeine just seems to be hit and miss in terms of desired effects, causing me to be jerky (bodily) or awake but not necessarily productive. Bear in mind I never develop a tolerance to caffeine, I used to have around 400mg a day.

So I’d like to know what benefits KRATOM has without any of the pretentious “this is bad for you” bs because I am not a child and secondly raw dogging life is not for me, you only live once so enjoy life, this vessel is temporary, i rather beat it around and have fun.

anyways good days

GREEN MALAY

I had kratom tea in San Diego once like 12 years ago. I really feeling really relaxed and that relaxed feeling lasted maybe an hour.

That was the one & only time I took it.

My friend came to visit me this weekend & she gave me a kratom pill. It was 120 mgs or grams idk and I took 1/4 of it. I immediately felt sedated. I slept until the morning. The next morning I threw up twice & I slept pretty much all day only now feeling some what normal at 9:20 pm. A whole 24 hours after the dose. My friend swears I ate something bad bc I took a low dose. I threw out the packaging so I can’t give anymore details but I think it’s the kratom, right? Was the dose to high? Should I throw out the rest of the broken apart capsule? Is this normal? Will I feel better tomorrow? So many questions lol

I've been using kratom for nearly 9 years and have attempted to quit a couple times in the last two but failed due to terrible RLS that would prevent me from sleeping. I've always been bad about measuring my consumption, but estimate it to be around 30 g per day. The thing is, I've never increased the dosage in the last 7 or so years .and have only taken it to keep the RLS at bay. I decided .again to attempt quitting about a month ago and was determined to succeed this time around. I managed to stop cold turkey and have not used since it's been 28 days. What's odd is that aside from maybe 4 or 5 nights of intense RLS, I've had absolutely no other withdrawal symptoms...well except for maybe one. While the RLS has subsided, I am experiencing terrible insomnia. More often than not, I just lay in bed and can not fall asleep. It's not anxiety as my mind does not race. I am just unable to sleep until around 7 or 8 am then I sleep for a few hours. I'm wondering if this is common and if so, how long will it take for it so go away.
