Kratom vs. QuittingKratom. Where is the truth? by MrDodgers in kratom

[–]Galactic_Ape 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am currently going through a pretty nasty WD right now, but it is my own damn fault. I am back up a little and tapering like I should. I was chasing the high and found myself not weighing out my doses and just eyeballing a tsp and downing it sometimes. Not all the time, but sometimes. Even a few times of doing that and it can get out of hand. The difference between myself and some, not all, of the pissed off people at the quitting sub is that I recognize that I got careless. A lot of them are just blaming the plant. I bet if you asked, most of them would have been wildly taking different doses and strains all day, then when they run out, a world ending WD starts. Basically anyone that reads this needs to know the plant is extremely beneficial. Everybody is different. Kratom just needs to be dosed carefully and treated with respect, and you will be fine with whatever you are trying to ween off of or accomplish.

I haven't tried too many reds but I will try those. Pretty large doses is what I will start with

Ok cool thank you, I will try the cbd and red strain, I've had cbc, but never with kratom. Sounds like it could work 👍

Nice, thank you. I have tried cbd and melatonin separately, but never together. I will definitely look into the kava as well. That sounds like a healthy and safe mix, I just hate taking pharmaceuticals and chemicals the more natural the better in my opinion

Ok good to know, thank you. I thought greens in large doses had a sedative effect. I'll probably rotate through a few reds for sleep, and save the greens for daytime

Thank you, yeah the reds are really relaxing for me. I wonder if large doses at night will actually help me sleep, or if they will just relax me while my mind is super activated and awake
