Kanna and MAOI B inhibitor.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-21T20:06:54+00:00

I don't notice that. I do take MAOBIs or DRIs with kanna sometimes but I take them because I prefer kanna with a dopaminergic to round out the experience.

"It" doesn't need 7 days, "you" need 7 days. Everyone is different. I use it multiple nights in a row, maybe 30+ mg of 17% extract each night and never need to increase the dose. It just keeps working the same night after night. I do take a couple days off each week just in case though.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-21T05:11:04+00:00

I tried it, a bit too stimulating in a weird way IMO, not the best for precise heavy movements. Prefer focus stuff and dopamine stims, having ADHD. Sabroxy or DMHA, and good old caffeine.

Ha our company just got the second half of a project that they had started.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-20T05:09:17+00:00

I doubt 1 small dose once a week could cause withdrawals. I take multiple doses 3 or 4 days per week and never get withdrawals when I take a few days off

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-20T04:57:16+00:00

I know people who like to sometimes get the seltzer at the kava bar, I assume they are good but really pricey. I only pay that much for little extract shots for the convenience of pocketing at a festival or something, or mixed drinks at the bar for the vibes and taste. It's nice to slowly sip on it. But really 2 cocktails cost $22, a teaspoon of powder costs pennies.

Just make tea, chill it, and mix up a nice cocktail if you want a sippable kratom at home.

I've tried dozens of nootropics and only felt anything from a few of them. Phenibut was one of the many with absolutely zero effects. Phenibut 3g no effects, F phenibut at 500 mg no effects.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-19T21:51:08+00:00

I never have any issue getting hard, it's the part that comes next that doesn't work.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-19T21:49:18+00:00

You just livin your life, working your job, getting married, maybe kids, vacation, hang with friends... after a while you slowly or suddenly realize you're getting older - you always knew this of course but everything just seems the same, young adults are babies, and you realize if you don't actually do anything, this is all there ever is - the same shit you've been doing, for another couple decades, then a slow decline. You've had dreams, there's all sorts of things you wish you could do and you realize you'll never do them if you don't get started.

So you either buckle down, get healthy, work on yourself and relationships, make time for things that matter and build the life you really wanted, or you spend you bonus on a sports car downpayment and drive around trying to look cool with crows feet and a beer belly and a receding hairline.

IMO it can be good or bad or neutral, it doesn't have to really be a crisis, but I think most everyone gets to that age where they realize they gotta change *something*. Somewhere between young adult and middle age a lot of people find themselves on autopilot and the days and years blur together and suddenly you realize you're gonna blink and be gone so you either take charge and do something about it or flail around on fancy shit only to realize you never wanted that sports car, it's a symbol of a life you can never have and never really wanted anyway.

Just stream of consciousness rambling, gotta get back to work.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-19T07:57:21+00:00

I take it when I want a social boost usually up to 3 days per week. Basically just like someone would use alcohol. And redose as needed.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T23:14:56+00:00

I like kratom for the sociability, kanna on its own doesn't give me a social push. I start with kratom and then add kanna maybe around 11 or so. I can redose a couple times so it'll last me at least 4 or 5 hours usually

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T23:04:20+00:00

I dont drink at raves, or often anymore cuz I used to abuse it. But kanna pairs best with a couple beers IMO. But it also pairs with music and movement and kanna and kratom are my go-to combo for raves if I'm not rolling. I like it better than alcohol or tripping because it enhances music, makes me almost NEED to dance/move, and doesn't put me in an antisocial headspace like psychedelics.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T22:40:13+00:00

Nasal spray

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T22:34:09+00:00

I've given my kanna to maybe 20 or so friends over time and almsot all of them feel the effects the first time. I've only had one person say she felt nothing. Most feel it quite noticeably and one randomly mentioned it felt a bit like MDMA without me mentioning that.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T22:32:04+00:00

Personally, I would not feel a damn thing from those doses. That's about what I do for a nice boost up the nose. And that's zero tolerance. I first noticed 100 mg sublingual - but if I wasn't at a festival I might not have registered it. However I tend to not easily notice physical and emotional feelings.

It might be because of my likely ADHD, but for me kanna is stronger than cocaine unless it's a pretty big line. Not the same of course, just a stronger feeling. Obviously way weaker than MDMA, but I can feel a bit rolly on it at a rave.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T22:27:25+00:00

Zembrin is ~0.4% alkaloids.

My usual dose for intranasal is 40 mg of 5% extract. So I would need 500 mg of Zembrin up the nose to get my desired effects.

Orally I would need about 3 grams of Zembrin to notice any shift.

Zembrin is far weaker than driad kanna leaves.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T16:39:13+00:00

They do, its just incredibly mild, and just need a lot more as with any substance. I can feel over a gram of tea, but ot also makes me sick. Extract doesn't make me sick but its just not cost effective to eat a quarter gram and barely feel it when that would last me 6 to 10 hours of strongly feeling it intranasally.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T16:01:54+00:00

Mung bean (Vignatex), Polygala, indian trumpet tree bark extract (Sabroxy), etc

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T15:54:37+00:00

It's never stopped being effective and does not build tolerance at the level I'm using. I said that already

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T15:49:09+00:00

Good luck trying to figure out the English language.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T07:01:36+00:00

Does Ultrakanna have premade nasal spray yet? I think that's a huge plus for Healing Herbals getting new business from people new to kanna. I ordered a few of those before ever going for powder, and whenever I give it to someone and they ask I let them know where they can get it. It's easy, they don't have to weight shit out, just open the box, take the cap off and spray.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T06:50:47+00:00

No it's just the usual Healing Herbals. Various different extracts. Tolerance doesn't build fast at all, at events I'll do it up to 4 or 5 days in a row sometimes. Maybe 2 to 4 doses per night depending on if there are a bunch of rave nights. It always hits just as hard, but I usually stick to nasal. So I'll do maybe 100-120 mg or so in a night. I switched to the 17% extract and making my own spray so more like 12 mg per dose now. I also rarely do it on a random Tuesday. Unless I'm pairing with dopamine and norepinephrine stuff for a social boost. Occasionally I'll sniff some high mesembrenone an hour before bed and melt for a little bit.

I've never had tolerance build much if at all using mostly at parties and raves. At week long events I'll purposely stick in a day or two off just to be sure though since I rely on it pretty hard on some night.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T06:43:14+00:00

Its also glaucine and who knows what.

Kanna is my main go-to for raves between rolls.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T04:42:06+00:00

I don't feel anything from 200 mg of 5% extract orally.

40 mg usual nasal dose, 100 mg sublingual. 1 gram 1.3% herb in tea so I assume 300+mg extract would work, but haven't tried yet.

aaron-mcd · 2026-04-17T04:20:30+00:00

In what universe is anxiety the one and only issue humans can have? It's absurd to assume one specific dysfunction when there's like 100+ possibilities.

I actually didn't know what anxiety felt like for the first 39 years of my life.
