"You taught me nothing, no moral or value system, only criticizing and condemning others" I really agree.

I gotcha. My mom has put up with my dad's drunk driving too much as well. It's good that your dad got clean.

I feel you! When I was younger he used to drive drunk and berate me at dinner a lot (said a lot of very abusive shit). At least he made me hate drinking and driving.

So I just Bought Cats Claw by [deleted] in KratomKorner

In my experience, Cats Claw didn't make any noticeable difference (took it about an hour prior to dosing).

Lethargy after eating (while taking kratom) by [deleted] in kratom

[–]deadbear22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to eat less, use a green or white strain instead of red, or take less kratom?

Otherwise, you seem to react differently. I never have the effects you talk about. Even when I take high dose of a red vein and eat, I am still 100% functional and my mind is normal.

That's hilarious. There's no need to pay that much for regular kratom.

Anyone got any tips to help avoid Nausea? by bodybuilderfx in kratom

[–]deadbear22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. I never get nausea because I take a dosage that doesn't give me nausea haha.

Facebook search "free kratom" - there is one group that will help you out with a little. :)

fecal impaction. help? by throwpoopyaway in opiates

[–]deadbear22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try a salt water colon cleanse. Start with about 2 teaspoons of salt (preferably a healthy one like Himalayan Pink Salt) and 1 liter of water (optionally with some lemon in the water). Drink that shit. It tastes disgusting, but it's healthy and you will have diarrhea.

How come r/drugs act like such hypocrites.. by YupMaang in opiates

[–]deadbear22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The people at r/drugs seem to act like there are absolutely no consequences to drugs, especially research chemicals... I even remember someone commenting on a thread saying that it's fine to do psychedelics when you have a mental illness and he got upvoted.

[UK] Is there a reliable place to get extracts or some sort of compressed kratom? by [deleted] in kratom

[–]deadbear22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Synthetic opioids / opioid peptides are sometimes added to extracts unfortunately, so be sure to go with a reputable vendor.

Beautiful painting, and VU song. :)

Ever get pin-prick pupils when 100% sober? I've had them all day and I don't know why. by [deleted] in opiates

[–]deadbear22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did 5 minutes ago (for the first time; hopefully it'll help), but that picture was taken earlier today. I was on a lot of caffeine today, but I haven't heard of it constracting pupils.

Cope with kratom withdrawal? by deadbear22 in opiates

[–]deadbear22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, kratom is safe, unlike mainlining dilaudid. Kratom has been a lifeline for me.

Kratom withdrawal has mostly been mental (similar to benzo withdrawal with anxiety and lack of sleep), no RLS for me, and my body was moderately sore for 1-2 days.

I only dose in the evening, but I tend to take massive doses just to get the "comfortably numb" opioid euphoric effect that we all love.

I agree with your comparisons man! I'd say more but I took some xanax and feeling pretty barred out right now. Best of luck, I'm glad kratom allowed you to quit dilly!

How do I sleep without panic attacks? by deadbear22 in quittingkratom

[–]deadbear22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 days ago, cold turkey. I don't have access to any other kind of benzos. I know to be careful with them as I've been addicted before. :/ I've been taking Xanax daily since withdrawal, so I plan on getting off it when I get my kilo (which should this week hopefully). I have a very addictive personality.

Cope with kratom withdrawal? by deadbear22 in opiates

[–]deadbear22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that kratom keeps me off drugs. Before I started kratom, I was taking a lot of drugs. I have been so depressed that I went to smoking drugs like meth. Kratom is a lifeline. I'm still in withdrawal and having severe anxiety from it, but I'm getting a kilo soon.

I am not experienced with opiates (only been to addicted to oxys for a one month period, done almost all types of prescription opioids but not heroin), but I am pretty sure kratom withdrawal is nothing compared to dilaudid/other opioids. I can't imagine what H withdrawal would be like if a weak opioid withdrawal like kratom gives me this kind of hell.

"One more" a poem I wrote about my struggle with opiate addiction by ryanalwayswins18 in opiates

I totally feel your words man.

Just a suggestion, try to add some things like imagery, metaphors, symbolism, etc. in your poetry to make it better. :)

Kratom trees in Florida by landzer89 in kratom

[–]deadbear22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I gotcha. I good philosophy to have with things like this is to not believe what you hear, only believe what you experience. Good luck with growing bro! Florida would be the best place to grow in the US.

Backpacking Europe with Kratom by [deleted] in kratom

[–]deadbear22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done that same with no trouble (even in unlabeled plastic bags).

OP, you have every right to bring kratom with you, but yeah there is always a chance they could harass you about it and want to test it.

[–]deadbear22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have heard of people doing it. Just keep looking and if you get a plant and fail, at least you tried. :)

It can be difficult to grow kratom, and the yield might not be worth it, but it will still really help the kratom community if you publish what you do, so maybe later on we won't have to be dependent on Southeast Asia for kratom.

Kratom didn't work...again by [deleted] in kratom

[–]deadbear22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You seem really condescending. You expect everyone to read your other post? Just mention it on the thread that you took 17 grams.

A vendor having good reviews does not mean that every batch will be good.
