Kratom effects can seem contradictory to the uninformed user: this plant can boost energy and strength while also helping to calm and relax you. The divergence in effects depends on how much of this herbal is used at once, ka different strains consumed as well as personal biochemistry. If you use a smaller amount, you will feel more mentally awake, experience heightened attention and awareness, and see your motivation increase dramatically. With larger doses, the effects of Kratom can lead to dareenka rayn, reduction in anxiety, sedative-like effects as well as putting you into a restful state of mind. In the following guide to the positive as well as negative effects of Kratom, we will explore how this herb influences your body as well as your state of mind.

Kratom Effect
- 1. Stimulatory: In small amounts, Kratom is energizing like a cup of caffeinated tea or coffee. The energy produced is not correlated with restlessness or an increase in your heart rate. Most reports describe it as a cerebral energy where you feel like your mind is clearer, you experience deep focus and have a balanced sense of vigor and vitality.
- 2. Mood Boosting: Most users say that Kratom is very uplifting to your mood and cognitive state. Another effect of this plant is that it can cause you to feel a sense of deep contentment and well-being. One dosing per day can block out negative thoughts and put you in an optimistic frame of mind where anything can see m possible. In qiyaasood weyn, Kratom powder can generate highly euphoric feelings. This is likely the result of the mitragynine alkaloid which has been found to exhibit anti-depressant qualities.

The white and green strains of Kratom are particularly effective for counteracting brain fog and helping you to focus all of your mental energy on the present moment.

There are many positive Kratom effects, but one much use it in the right way to prevent side effects. This plant is not considered dangerous and there is a low risk of serious side effects or addictive potential. Unlike what the media reports suggest, no one in the USA has ever died from using Kratom and you will not likely run into serious adverse effects unless taking a dosage 10-20x higher than the recommended amount. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, there are mild side effects that you should be aware of. It can cause drowsiness, daal, calooshu ku, lallabo, and stomach discomfort when first starting out. Certain strains and types of Kratom are more likely to cause these effects and you may need to experiment a bit to find out which is the right one for you.
Several reports have described a “Kratom Hangover” after taking this substance the next morning. This can show up as a headache, irritability, lallabo, anxiety or other related effects. If using regularly, one can develop a tolerance and feel a desire to continue to take more to achieve the same results. Never exceed the recommended amount as this can create the potential for abuse. While Kratom is not addictive, it can be habit forming over a long enough period of time. You should control your usage of this herbal to protect against these risks and minimize possible side effects.

Buy addiction you mean dependence there’s a difference addiction and habit are basically the same whereas addiction and dependence are not google it if you don’t believe me
True, many people (incorrectly) do not differentiate between being addicted to something vs being physically dependent on something because very often both are present when someone has a “drug problem.” Addiction is more of a behavioral problem, dependence is physical. Addiction is an emotional need for a drug or habit that has been built up, dependence comes when you have taken a drug long enough that your body has become used to the effects of a drug, so sudden cessation of said drug causes withdrawal symptoms. At least with opiates, i think kratom can be useful for both conditions, although it is almost always effective at easing withdrawal symptoms. It eased my symptoms from heroin withdrawal almost completely, and I have helped many of my friends detox with it. We are all much happier now and we have more money too ;)
To depend on something daily is Addiction… if you depend on it physically. ….hello you are addicted!!!
It must be hard to breathe up on that mountain top.
seriously dude? are you going to bash someone for being proud of quitting the most difficult drug habit to break? have you ever injected heroin, or even seen it?? hell, have you ever even left the culdesac in your yuppie suburb? jesus christ. I hope, with your level of ignorance, you never have kids, because the addiction thing is an epidemic. I don’t believe its a disease because i quit a heroin/ pill/ any drug i could get my hands on habit without the total abstinence thing (I enjoy a couple of beers after I work a 16 hour day, 6 days a week). i was injecting heroin for over 7 sano – and i started when i was 16. when I finally did stop, kratom was my ally. i never would have made it out alive if it hadn’t been for kratom. I’ve also been ‘clinically dead’ (whatever that means) 3 different times from H overdoses. kratom saved my life. I’m glad you’ve never had to experience difficulties like that. because you are far too up your own a$$ to humble yourself enough to break through. I hope your sheltered life stays stable, god knows you need it.
You should know… you’re on a mountain just as high. Judge not less ye be judged my friend.
Habit can become addiction. if u build a tolerance then u will need more until more is not enough then u will need it more often which becomes abuse and that my friend is addiction
I am about to purchase my first order of Kratom. I’m not wanting it to get high. My only desire to get it in the first place is to get rid of opiates that I have been using for the past 10 years due to chronic pain from cancer surgery and spondylosis in conjunction with anxiety. The issue that I have encountered is the lack of knowledge of where to get it as all sites claim to have the best Kratom online and that they have the most potent and best prices. That leaves me with the fear of being ripped off and with a product that I have paid for but doesn’t do anything for the pain, which is severe. Please advise, or do you also claim to have the best or do you just critique the different sites. Sorry but I have to be blunt as I live on a limited income and want to get off opiates like no other and need the help with the pain issues. Thanks so much for any advice!
get zen ultra premium kratom single dose packets…it will work, i promise you.
zen ultra premium kratom single dose packets are great, but at 9 bucks a pop I don’t think most people can afford that. Way overpriced.
Hi Sherri,
I can relate to your situation. I found this guide very helpful, it contains comprehensive information on different sources as well as a check-list for vetting sellers:

I just tried the Bali kratom for pain today as I havr endometriosis and just stopped using suboxone as a pain killer one month ago, took one pill on an empty stomach as advised and it is amazing. As an ex opiate user I have a high tolerance for pain meds. I live in Denver and it is sold legitimately at a few different head shops, I got mine at Headed West. I recommend getting the type that decreases anxiety instead of the type that promotes energy. Hope this helps you some.
Hey Sherri, I completely understand your confusion regarding the issue. The vendors out there claiming to have the most potent and quality product are manifold, but I will give you some advice based upon some of my past experiences. For vendors, the number one spot is occupied by an online retailer by the name of Mood & Mind (www.moodandmind.com). Aside from Mitragyna Speciosa (kratom), they sell an array of other products, but at the risk of sounding like I am making a sales pitch, I’ll remain topical. In my opinion, the quality of their kratom is nigh unparalleled among online venders, and the consistency and quality of their many strains combined with prices that are more than fair make them perhaps the best choice. For instance, the average price for 4oz (112 garaam, qallafsan) would be 38-40 dollars. Additionally, their customer service is second to none, and every order placed with them comes with sample pack of some other strain of their choosing.
Another reputable vendor would be Sage Wisdom Botanicals (www.sagewisdombotanicals.com). In terms of the quality of their product (kratom in particular, as the site mainly caters to Salvia Divinorum enthusiasts), it is my opinion that it sits firmly atop the scale among online vendors. However since you mentioned that budget is an issue for you, I cannot recommend this vendor as their prices are steep (unnecessarily steep, if you ask me).
Thirdly, and perhaps the best option for you given your particular set of circumstances, is an option that comes from an unlikely source: amazon.com. Though there are myriad vendors peddling their kratom via Amazon, there are only two that I trust: The Herbal Shop, and Treekompany, and between the two, I favor Treekompany, as their prices tend to be lower than THS’s, and again – in my opinion – the quality and diversity of their product is superior. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, BE ADVISED that if you select a Treekompany product from Amazon, MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE that Treekompany is the actual vendor. There are a number of vendors who “iibiso” Treekompany product (like DirectSale USA, kuwo kale), and the product they provide is either cut with green tea, or in general an almost deliberately less potent batch. Make sure that you take note of the area that states “Ships from and sold by X”. If X is anything other than Treekompany (or The Herbal Shop, should you choose to go with them), look at the right hand side under the “Add to Cart” button, and select the appropriate vendor from there.
All in all, Mood & Mind as well as Treekompany are probably your best bet for acquiring quality kratom at reasonable prices. I know this post came 5 months late, but I hope that I’ve been some help. I’m happy that you’re overcoming your opiate addiction; keep up the great work, girl!
Jamison, thanks so much for your help. You might have been 5 months too late for her but you weren’t for me! Lots of good info about vendors.
When I went on mood and mind all I could find is kava kava was I doing something wrong?
Hi Sherri,
I know you posted this several months ago, but I’m going to tell you what I did anyway. ???? I used prescription pain killers for ten years, went through horrible withdrawal, didn’t need them for seven years, needed them again for two years. I did NOT want to withdrawal again so I started using Kratom. I did not experience withdrawal at all with Kratom. I have found that if you purchase it online, they’re all the same. There is one major distrutor of Kratom and most websites buy from this distributor. Do not buy anything that has a brand. If they show the packaging rather than the Kratom, don’t buy, it’s crap. Sidoo kale, don’t buy from headshops, they’re total crap too. The best strain for withdrawal is red Thai. It has the highest amount of good alkaloids. If you want some specific websites and dosages, shoot me an email at LadyKatharine123@yahoo.com
This is old I know but if your still looking Chicago botanicals are great. They’re on fb and have webpage I.just order off get fb page :-)
I hope it works
Try onlinekratom.com they have excellent kratom and are fast in delivering it to you!! I have ordered from other websites and none have been as good as them. I hope this helps!
I took kratom for the first time today and felt relief of bad mood and irritability.
Was able to focus.
I use Kratom regularly. It provides many benefits for me and I find it great and is very safe to use. I found some extra information on what kratom does, how to take it, and the effects of different strains. Was pretty helpful information.
I just bought some for pain relief, after reading about it in the Palm Beach Post. I never heard of it before then. One mother said her son committed suicide. Well, that is too bad, but an herb didn’t do it.
If this stuff works like it is purported, I am all for it. Herbs that are pain
relievers. Nothing wrong with that.
I have arthritis in multiple joints with constant pain. I used to smoke cannabis but it is too difficult to get and I don’t want to do business with street vendors. So an online site that sells a legal herb is just up my alley.
Thanks to the Palm Beach Post. Now you little kiddies, go back to your studies and stop looking to get high all the time. I am a 66 yo woman who has accumulated not only pain, but some wisdom. I know what I am doing.
This is what I say to the State: Keep your laws off my body.
I will let you know what happens.
Hi Linda,
I’m writing an article about kratom (not like the one in the Palm Beach Post!) and am curious to find out how the herb worked for you. Thanks!
Saved my life
I started taking Kratom and it’s giving me headaches when I have sex. I’m getting my blood pressure checked because I’ve been reading about people having extremely high blood pressure as a side effect. These headaches are seriously painful and scary. I took a shower to cool down and I almost passed out. Needless to say, I’m not going to take it anymore. If you are thinking about trying it, don’t. It’s too dangerous.
I just started using a Jeff Stryker Ultra Realistic Dong and I’m getting soreness in my vaginal area after sex. Needless to say I’m not going to use it anymore. If you are thinking of trying it, don’t. It’s too dangerous.
*ROLLEYES*
All kidding aside, If it’s that concerning, go to your doctor and get a physical. Maybe kratom isn’t right *FOR YOU*….I am allergic to the IV iron treatment I need to combat severe anemia. I need to take a chemotherapy grade steroid AND a benadryl drip before I take the IV iron so that I don’t have a bad asthma attack. I am less than .02% of the population allergic to the IV iron….and I would NEVER tell another person not to take it because it was “too dangerous”….many people need it to survive, including myself. Just because you have made the connection between the kratom that you just started taking and headaches after sex does not mean that everyone will have that reaction (if kratom is even the cause of those headaches). I started using kratom and noticed that my orgasms are stronger and more frequent and my libido has returned….I feel like I’m in my twenties again! I am seriously sorry you are not having MY reaction to kratom. Kadib 18 years of marriage my husband and I are having sex like we did when we were dating, and the only thing that is different in our life is kratom. Which one of us is right? The answer: probably both of us because every single person on the planet will react to anything differently than the next person because we are UNIQUE. The bottom line is that there are a hell of a lot more people who are experiencing life changing relief from pain, walaaca, depression, daal, and freedom from opiates than people reporting headaches after sex. My advice to you? Don’t take such a large dose of kratom and try again. If you take too much kratom you can experience headaches, lallabo, and a jittery feeling…that means you’ve taken too much. We also have no idea where you got it, the dosage you took, what strain you took….for all we know you got kratom from a headshop laced with extracts (which beginners should NOT take because it’s super concentrated and you don’t need as much), you took some white borneo instead of red Indo, took a little more than you should have, and gave yourself a headache. I’m probably more on the money than not. So don’t just come on a forum to HELP people and give spotty information, leave pertinent information out and claim kratom is dangerous. Your irresponsible comments are more dangerous, frankly.
Well said!
I am laughing so hard I don’t need Kratom…..natural relief is what you just gave me!
On a serious note…..did you have any blood pressure problems before the Kratom? I also am having terrible headache and elevated blood pressure. Not sure if it is the Kratom due to my history of headaches and blood pressure problems due to thyroid. Or is it the Kratom making it even worse? Going to stop the Kratom and then monitor. I also got this Kratom from a headshop so who know what is in it. I ordered from a verified company to see if that will change anything?
I’m sorry to hear that kratom led to such unpleasant effects for you. No doubt you have license to say whatever you like; but with regard to having a useful discussion about it, it’s unfair to extrapolate how it affected you to the entire population. Many people find it a truly valuable herb whether it’s for pain relief, withdrawal attenuation, or simply as a recreational drug. Comments such as yours may dissuade someone from trying it who could have benefited from many of its positive effects. There’s always a small percentage that will have a negative reaction or experience, with any drug, but your experience is one observation within a very large sample and is in no way representative of the broader consensus. Peace!
Sherri- I get mine from kratomhigh.com. It comes in powder form which tastes awful, but I just swallow it down with OJ. I think it is addictive however, so be careful. Some people have withdrawal symptoms, others do not. I don’t get high from it, but it does give me energy and help with pain. Good luck!
@deusopus, just because you had a problem with it doesn’t mean everybody does.
You don’t go around telling people not to drink coffee ever because there are a few people who react badly to caffeine do you?
Definitely be careful though (as with ANY drug), if you have any existing bp issues you need to use caution with Kratom. I had high bp for years that I brought under control with exercise and diet, and Kratom worked just fine; until I switched strains.
I took a new strain I hadn’t tried before and my BP shot up to 170/95 for a few hours, but thankfully it came down just fine.
Next time I’ll be sure to “wean” myself into different strains.
Is anyone reading this site? Can’t tell. Palm Beach Post reported this week that 20 yo male who jumped off overpass to kill himself last month did have kratom in his system. He also was on antidepressents. Now his mother will be “fighting kratom”. How about helping young males with depression? Kratom didn’t kill him. He killed himself. He did not have the coping skills to fight depression. It ain’t just pills. We have to help our young people. Not by putting guardrails on everything but by teaching them how to deal with life.
Intaas waxaa sii dheer, the organic mitragyna speciosa that I bought online is working well for my pain relief. Aniga 66 and know what I’m doing.
If they are blaming the Kratom then they need to blame the anti depressants too… The kid was desperate, obviously. Been there myself quite a bit.
I think I Might have to try this stuff. would love to get off the anti depressants..the one I’m on is a tough one.
And could use some pain relief….. hope it helps.
I knew Ian, the boy who jumped to his sad and untimely death. He had not only been shun by his mother for coming out of the closet, but his mother had diagnosed her son (she’s in the medical field if that means anything other than her undying support for pharmaceuticals) with severe depression. Kratom definitely had no role in his death. His mother drove him to believe that everything was wrong in his life and instead of facing her own remorse she is ganging up with politicians to help ban this natural substance that myself and thousands use wisely on a weekly basis. The focus on kratom being dangerous while alcohol and pills are recommended or accepted is beyond me. It is concrete proof that Big Pharma does not want citizens finding relief from natural substances with little to no side effects. While I can watch a commercial for some anxiety pill that might cause sudden cardiac arrest, numbness in the limbs and suicidal thoughts. Just play that piano music in the background and keep on feeding the country pills.
Sad as this story may be, apparently this young man had some very deep and very long standing psychiatric issues. And if, dhab ahaantii, his coming out of the closet cause him to be shunned by his mother, that would set into action an entire long list of complications.
Most of all this mother will be looking for something or somebody to point a finger towards in an effort to deny her own complicity in the boy’s suicide.
In most instances of deep depression resulting in suicide…it does not usually occur while the individual is deeply depressed…during that time, the person rarely has the energy to do the deed. The most critical and vulnerable time for suicide is when the depression begins to lift, when they actually begin to feel better. It is then they have the energy to commit suicide and it is during that time the psychiatrists know to watch their patients very closely.
Thanks Chris. These prescription commercials they show are unreal. They claim to help you, then they have all of these horrible side effects you have to tolerate.
Markaas, a year later, you have lawyer commercials saying “If you or a loved one, qaaday ****** medication, had limbs fall off or died, we can help you with a lawsuit…”.
Kratom neither makes one depressed nor cures depression. Waxaa jira, Si kastaba ha ahaatee, several psychotropic pharma drugs that psychiatrists prescribe (including seroquel) that can and DO cause suicidal acts. Someone should tell the young man’s mother and sue their psychiatrist instead. I’ve personally witnessed such malpractice and psychotic behavior as a result of the wrong anti-depressant. Check out drugs.com/seroquel.html
I have been diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder. I also SUFFER FROM CHRONIC AND sometimes DEBILITATING PAIN. Pharmaceutical drugs are the death of this nation, I am not kidding. I have been on Kratom for a couple of weeks, OH MY GOSH!!!! I can not even begin to tell you how much better I feel physically and psychologically. I am crying as I write this because I thought the only way for me to EVER stop the pain was suicide. And I mean the pain of my depression and physical pain. NOTHING has ever helped me like this. I am getting ready to go out and plant flowers people!!!! This is amazing for me!!! God gave us so much to help us right on this ground we walk on, we have to be more conscious of the natural pain relievers and get over these damn Pharmaceutical mass murderers. If I could ever ever help anyone with anything like what I have been through, I would start with kratom, and build a rehabilitation program from that. God bless, be smart and go plant some flowers ya’all!!!
What an inspiration!! Ive had depression for over 5 years now and I am tried of seeing phycologists and being on meds . It makes me feels less of a person. I ask myself if this is how my life will be from now on ? Someone told me about kratom and I feel a bit scared to try it .
I am currently going “cold turkey” off of my Norco, after 6 years on and off. I was prescribed this from my Pain Physician. I was taking 70-150 mgs of Norco per day. If I do not take it, I have body pain, depression, walaaca, diarrhea, Insomnia, crazy leg cramps, iwm. I started taking Kratom yesterday and it has helped. I actually slept last night, but did experience some weird dreams. I also did wake up feeling very stiff, and have a mild headache, and dry mouth. Guud ahaan, I am pleased with it and I also do not have the urge to smoke cigarettes :)
Thank you Kratomonline for providing this awesome site!
Kratom does work for many people, these positive effects are spot on.

I have been takin’ kratom on & off for 4-5 yrs now for anxiety & depression & never had any ill side effects from it other than maybe being kept up one or two nights. I am however still trying to find a dose & or combination to help with chronic insomnia.
Try any Sumatra strain kratom.
I started using different kratom colors a few days ago too see which ones would affect me. I have ADD, PTSD, I.C., Fibro, iyo….. Well first thing I notices with the Red is the feeling of relaxation and flow. I have also cut my PRN medications by half, not planned, I just didn’t need them. I’ve been suffering from XYZ for 8 sano. I am amazed! Also the Green seemed to pick me up, while the white made me feel chill, but still able to do things. I pray studies can be done the help identify what veins can help illness, yet keep the FDA away!
AMEN to that!!!!
I have also IC, ee 10 sano. I just read about kratom in a FB post, never heard of it b/f. Did it help with your IC pain, and what about frequency? Did it heal you or do you need to be taking it for the rest of your life? I know cannabis heals IC but it is not available in my state yet.
i started using kratom about a year ago to fight against symptoms of MS. I tried several different companies 98% online services. I don’t like having to visit ‘headshops’ or calling around the numerous places in northern VA asking do you carry kratom?? The best I have found is from dayakchillspot.com
The ABSOLUTE best I have tried!! Or, it has worked the BEST of the ones I have tried in the past. Symptoms of MS range from pain, brain fog, hurdo la'aan, mood swings, loss of functions, depression…oh did I mention PAIN!!! The only thing I feel in certain parts of my body is excruciating pain with every movement. I was on 23 various pills everyday, each one in hopes to fight against numerous symptoms. Once I found dayakchillspot, I was able to cut back to 12 pill per day. Only in a matter of a week. It wasn’t my original plan to cut back on my meds, it just happened naturally. I would never down a person’s choice of which one or company or strain said person would choose. I know my body works well from ordering from this site. I was actually introduced to Dayak by an individual in a facebook MS support group. I was shocked and overjoyed how much my life has changed for the better!! Best wishes to you all, and fight to keep it legal!! It has saved me and saved my life!! Everyday I uncover something wonderful this plant has been able to do for me :)).
Wow, Your expierence gave me hope! Ive been very leary of Kratom.I hate all the pills being prescribed & all the side effects! I have so much sciption meds for chronic pain in my spine,back all over! I have arthritis from my neck down,PTSDA.,Manic depression anxiety,nerve damage etc. Im 55yrs I enjoy life I don’t feel old,but I know all the Pharmacuticals WILL be the death of me! My son shared Kratom w me recently! I was amazed @ the powder could give me a day of running around town w NO PAIN! I wasn’t crabby when I came home! I slept so good! Woke up feeling better than I have in years.Yes, watch your dosing.Im glad my son turned me on to this website! I welcome other people stories. My son has a reliable source locally.I welcome reliable website sources & as much info I can get! Thanks Deb
I would note for negative side effects that when taking large daily doses ( approx. 15-20garaam) kratom causes a green pigmentation in the skin. This is caused by chlorophyll build up in cells. It’s barely noticeable, but apparent.
Is it safe to use Kratom for chronic pain if you are on a daily dose of blood thinners?
I had a 16 oz glass of the white tea last night between drinking. I had 8 drinks in 10 hours and two meals, so technically, I was not drunk; Si kastaba ha ahaatee, I am blaming the kratom for making me nauseous. I ended up passing out. The paramedics said that Kratom is an opiate (need to research that) and is not good to mix with alcohol. Cautionary tale to do more research before experimenting with anything you put in your body.
as a follow up, kratom is not an opiate, but it does bind with the same receptors as opium. I can see why it would be beneficial for opium withdrawls.
I, too, can relate to your response. I have chronic pain and diagnosed generalized anxiety. Bali kratom has been the absolute best thing to help me!…and that is one big understatement!
I also have friends with Lupus, Fibromyalgia, and MS….it actually helps them as well! Simply incredible!
Try out Coastal Kratom (my primary) and Herbal Salvation (secondary)….they have been the most reliable and consistent.
Best of nasiib, and I hope for the very best in your current situation!
kratomdivine.com has Zen Ultra Premium Maeng Da kratom and they ship FAST! I have always had Excellent customer service from them.
I am an alcoholic. I know my alcoholism stems from severe anxiety and I am presently on Ativan as needed to help control it so I will not drink. Of late, my Ativan does not seem to be working anymore, even with an increase in its dosage amount. I was very recently introduced to Kratom (Indo green?) and found its effect very calming, with my craving and anxiety gone. Has anyone else found this Kratom to be helpful in alcohol addiction? I have read about its success with opiate and nicotine addiction. Please share if you have an alcohol addiction or know of someone who it has helped. I am very encouraged right now with Kratom! and desperate to kick this alcoholism!
I can tell you from personal experience. It is addictive, and it will sneak up on you. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, its not the worst substance to get addicted to. If all you’ve done is powder on a daily basis, your withdrawal will be more mental than anything. The depression is bad, and it takes a couple of days to get over it. Kava helps. So does alcohol. So does weed. So does blue lotus. But the depression will make you want kratom more than sex. Bad. I’ve done kratom for the past 5 sano. Powder only. Its been almost a week since my last dose. Feels like a month. I’m thinking when I’m clean someday a part of me will still want it. Do it if you want. Its fun, but know what you’re getting into.
Absolutely! I have been taking it for 6 – 7 months as a replacement to codeine. I had been using codeine recreationally (CWE) recreationally, and then I switched to kratom because it was just cleaner but produced the same effect. It really sneaks up on you. It’s not terrible… it’s just so good and has so little downside (no calories, doesn’t make you eat like weed) that you may find yourself taking it more than you want or expect to. Many users like me report going from once a week to twice a week to every night with a day of break here and there. Lucky for me I am extremely self-aware about what I’m doing so I freak out about anything and monitor any addictions, and I can say that still I find I am somewhat addicted.
Like you said, once you get that high (it started for me the first time I took codeine for a cold), you will want it again. It is the opiate high. Also what’s interesting is the longer you do kratom, sometimes the more euphoric the effects are (kind of like with weed, where it gets better over time). This can also be dangerous. Your
It is very misleading to say it is not addicting. Kratom can absolutely cause physical dependance, as it contains an opioid. If it’s not addicting, then why is there a highly active subreddit called r/quittingkratom?
It certainly has some abuse potential — as mitragynine binds with opioid receptors — but it *does not* “contain an opioid.”
Is this legal in Oregon and can I buy it locally? Haddii ay sidaas tahay, do you know where. Fairview, OR
I took this to detox so I could pass a urine test for pot. What I noticed is I used to have a very strong bladder, ie I would only have to urinate 2 jeer maalintii. Now I am running to the bathroom because the urge to urinate is so strong. I only took 5 pills a month or so ago, and this side effect is still with me. Anyone else have this side effect? P.S. I did pass the test
Does kratom show in urine testing?
Hi Jack,
Kratom drug tests do exist, but they are not very widely used right now. The average urine test that an employer does isn’t screening for Kratom use, so the alkaloids in this plant should not show up. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, if someone is specifically testing for kratom, then it would show up.
My buddy is on probation and has a urine test coming up, will kratom show in his test?
I just tried Experience Botanicals Maeng Da Kratom today. 1 tblsp with a small Jamba Juice Orange with a boost of vitamin C. The Kratom came from a head shop in Beaverton Oregon. It is absolutely the real thing. The salesperson was very knowledgeable. I needed it now. I was not getting any relief from the small amount of norco I am allowed each month for severe chronic pain all over. I have several other problems including depression XYZ,
What I can say about my experience is that I felt great in about 40 daqiiqo. It felt like i had just ran 5 miles. I am disabled and I can’t even bend over without it hurting but it felt as though somebody put a cortisone shot right into my hips, back, legs, and spine! It was excellent. The resilience and youthfulness I felt lasted for about 3.5 saacadood. It was very unbelievable to me that one single thing could help me this much.
I too am sorry about the young man who jumped off of the bridge as I have watched many videos to learn about Kratom. What I believe is that Seroquel XR and Gabapentin are to blame. You see. After being in two severe car crashes and my ex almost killing me he settled with me financially and I moved into my own apartment. During the whole entire 6 months my NP at another facility and Kaiser experimented on me with an array of NSAIDs and Gabapentin, murugada (one that almost made me go into convulsions had it not been for calling her for ativan) and I was even given Seroquel XR for free for a year from Astrozeneca. I sat around for 6 months very depressed and scared. I slept all of the time. My family was constantly worried.
What eventually happened now is that I am sick of the pharmaceuticals. I want to get off their gravy train and I want to say that I believe that young man committed suicide over little or no support from his family and not getting the right kind of help. Also Gabapentin in large doses causes people to commit suicide. I was thinking of suicide when I finally got insurance this year and my doctor took me off of the 1200 mg I was on.I had to stop the Seroquel XR too after my limbs started moving without me wanting them too. Dyskensia? I finally settled on Depakote 500mg and that is it. I would like to get off of that but one thing at a time.
I am sorry a one man had a seizure and a young man jumped off of a bridge but is it really that hard to understand that the drug companies want us to depend on them? They have lawyers and the government to protect them. What grows from the earth and is natural and used legitimately and cautiously and responsibly for good purpose is not something we should shut down. I want to buy the plants and start growing them so that never happens to me. I would never want to run out. I only took 1 teaspoon and am done right now this evening. I have no desire to take another dose, and feel relaxed.
it helped me make a gourmet dinner and I am disabled. This is something that my roommate was very impressed with. Thanks for listening. btw. I too hate drug commercials that tell you you could have stroke or heart attack or suicidal thoughts when using???? Why are these drugs legal for us to consume? I mean I agree some are absolutely needed but doctors need to prescribe with discretion. The first thing available to me was a wide array of anti-depressants. I went through about 10 of them that never worked without any doctor ever questioning what would happen to me. Oh, you are depressed and that didn’t work? Well lets try another. So not right. I now support Kratom.
Debra, Im disabled from two car wrecks & a victem of child abuse.Im so afraid of the gabapentin & the high doses.Ive never taken as much as doc scribed! I had a severe reaction to lyrica! Had it not been for a very good friend that came to check on me,I would not be alive! I get every bad side affect from all the new meds being shoved @ us that suffer! Ive had bad reactions to different pain meds & anti depressants.My heart goes out for the young man who jumpd from the bridge.I believe w my heart & soul it was NOT Kratom! I know of 3 people on Seraquel that have tried suicide.One a teenager the others in their 40’s! I hate the happy blue skies & rainbows Drug commercials! They are paid for by the greedy wealthy drug companies & investors.Ive been on gabapentin oxycodone Wellbutrin&Celexa @ the same time. Valium,Allergy etc.I was taking 4benadryl,2valium,4melatonin,2 Nyquil,2 allergy pills &celexa to fall asleep & upon waking in middle of the night,taking the second round of the above meds to sleep.As w any thing use Kartom w caution untill you find the correct dosage for you.I Thank God, because If not for Kartom my teen wouldn’t be here.He was so depressed,angry & afraid of hurting himself or others.He has been using Kartom We have our son back! I welcome others expierence feedback. Deb
Please Excuse my miss-spelling. I have Dyslexia.
I have a question. Does Kratom show up on drug test.
I have lupus and fibromyalgia, a friend introduced me to Kratom. And it worked miracles for me.
My job requires random drug testing. So that is the only concern I have. Also I would like to know which type of Kratom to get for my conditions
Thank you all in advance
Mona, I also have Fibro and depression. I take Vicodin & Tramadol for pain and Zoloft for depression. I have noticed I the pain killers give me the pain relief and energy I need to get through the days.. I have not yet tried Kratom but I’m Interested! Did you feel any uplifting energy from the Kratom? Also where did you buy it from and what kind did you use?
Thanks!! Katie
I just heard of Kratom yesterday threw a friend and I’ve began doing some research to figure out if this herb is right for me. I have been using drugs and alcohol on and off for the past 15 sano, opiates being my drug of choice. For the past 3 years I’ve been on a methadone maintenance program, 2 years ago I began slowly weaning myself off of the drug. My highest dose was 140mg, now I’m down to 58mg. I am paying $320 a month out of pocket for my methadone, whether I am on 2ml or 200mg, it is still the same price. I am on disability for my drug issues, depression and anxiety. I can not afford it anymore. Plus, I do not want to be on the drug itself! I want to switch to something that is safer, doesn’t make me feel high ( the nods), something that will replace the receptors in my brain so I do not crave drugs. I also want something that will give me energy to accomplish things in my daily life. It would be a huge plus to alleviate my symptoms of depression and an anxiety too. The detox of methadone, my depression and anxiety cripple me of accomplishing the smallest tasks in life. Anyway, from what I’m reading it sounds that kratum may be the solution. I have many questions though. Which strain is right for me? How much will I need to buy in bulk to take everyday and how much should I take each day. I have a very high tolerance to drugs. Will Kratom effect the psych meds I am currently taking ( I am not on MAOI’s).I also plan to eventually wean off of kratom too. I am tried of being dependant on a substance! More questions, who is a reputable source to buy from? My main question, how do I switch from methadone to kratum? Is there a weaning process? I don’t want to be ill between switching. If there is another user of this product that has a similar story as mine, and can guide me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it!
I just started using kratom for anxiety and depression. It makes me feel supper alert and happy. Also more sociable. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, the side effects have been constipation and imsomnia. Will they go away?
Mahadsanid!
Does anyone know if kratom used over a long period (couple of years) of time will show aging or that worn down look as some drugs may cause?
I was wondering if Kratom would begin to make you show that worn down look as I’ve been taking Kratom for over a year and I feel that applies. It was only after I had been taking Kratom regularly for awhile that people would tell me I look tired. When no one has ever said that. I’m always getting carded wherever I go, but I noticed that changed after the Kratom use. I came on here to see if anyone else had experienced that too and then I saw your comment.
Trying to reply to both of you — I have been drinking kratom daily for around 8 bilood & look like I’ve aged significantly in the past few months. I don’t drink alcohol, qiiqa, there’s nothing else to explain it. Sidaas, haa! I’d say without a doubt kratom causes you to look aged.
Now I just want to know if it will reverse itself when I get off of it. Any thoughts?
I just posted a comment & it’s not showing up, so summarizing- yes without a doubt drinking kratom daily has made me look much older.
Does anyone know if the long-term-ish effect of looking older gets better once you quit the kratom?
(Have been drinking daily kratom for around 8 months.)
I started using kratom the other day for my pain and I got it from specialtyherbstore.com and its been pretty helpful. I have been sleeping better and have never felt so good and the pain has been negligible. I get migraines and severe back pain and tension. This stuff works great.
I have been addicted to kratom for a year now… Starting to notice health problems associated with it’s use.
It’s great for depressed people like me… but once that one year mark comes around, you know you screwed up.
try to stay away from it (if you can)
Can Kratom be taken while taking chemo?
My friends son just came off life support from overdosing on kraton.
He was found slumped over drooling at the bus stop. He was immediately taken to ER when his lungs stopped working due to communication with the brain. haa, I would definitely not mess around with anything that the medical field has limited knowledge of – the doctors at the ER hadn’t even heard of it yet.. He’s off life support, but went back to using.. Huh
Hello Everyone-
I’ve been thinking about giving kratom a try because I was a heroin addict for a few years & am now currently on methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms & refrain from using anymore. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, the.methadone only holds me for a maximum of 18 saacadood, far less than its suppose to, & I am on 100mgs! It is unbelievable. I am tired of being “sick” everyday as well as having chronic back & knee pain from sport injuries & a car accident. Can anyone please tell me which strand would best suit my needs? How should I take it & how much being my first time? As well as where to purchase in NYC? Someone please help me out. I’d greatly appreciate the advice. Mahadsanid.
kratom is working for me. I was taking roughly 150mg a day of oxy for pain but tired of the tolerance to it. I’m on day 5 of no oxy and taking 3 doses per day of 4 capsules each time. I still get the wd symptoms if I don’t take the kratom on time but it feels like it’s getting a little better each day. I can honestly say if it weren’t for kratom I would have lied and stolen to get those pills. When wd happens it’s like your mind is against you, plotting ways to get that pill. I will start lowering my dosage of K in a few days to see what happens but as for now, I feel very optimistic that this monkey is finally off my back. Thank God for Kratom
Kratom has helped my arthritis and headaches immensely! Perhaps it isn’t for everyone, but has workwd wonders for me. I am also a recovering alcoholic and since I have been using Kratom, my alcohol cravings are non-existent.
I have been taking pain killers for around 15 years from norcs to morphine to ir oxys and the old school oxys which they quit making and that sux. Learned about Kratom a few weeks ago and wish I learned about it 10 sano ka hor. Like Marijuana it is a miracle plant expecially for people like me. I have stopped taking pks the day after Kratom with zero of the disability ting detoxing. I can work sleep and think without opiates for the first time in what seems like my life. I will be using this for another couple weeks and try to wean off. If it’s like caffeine I will have no problem. This forum has helped me a ton so thanks for all your input on here I hope mine helps like everyone’s helped me.
If it wasn’t for kratom my pain would be too much to bare and I would not be able to work!! I took opiates for five years and they destroyed my life!!! Kratom gave it back to me!!! Keep it legal! I was going to kill myself due to pain and opiate use; kratom pulled me back from the abyss! Thank you Jesus for this miracle tree!
I’ve been using kratom to treat pains for about 2 sano haatan. Ever since I had back surgery done, I’ve been stiff and in pain getting out of bed. It would continue throughout the day if it weren’t for the cup of kratom tea I make every morning
I have chronic pain in the form of severe nerve damage in my legs and am sick of opiates! Can anyone tell me which strain to use to get similar effects to the opiates for pain and anxiety? And where to purchase it? I don’t want to feel like I drank a bunch of coffee though. I’d appreciate any advice, I hate taking all these pills and I want my life back!
I use kratom, White Vein Borneo type, primarily as an uplifiting anti-depressant. I use it daily and fairly heavily. I say kratom’s effects are like a powerful blast of tramadol. Some folks say kratom is like hydrocodone – and I agree that about 20% of its effects resemble hydrocodone to a small extent – but it’s strong mood-lifting effect with associated energy is almost exactly like tramadol’s effects.
Kratom seems to have a very low risk for physical dependance. I say that because I can go long hours without it (say, when I’m working long hours and don’t have access to my supply) and I don’t get ‘sick’.
Kratom underground had the freshest product and they truly care about their clients!!!
Hey guys I want to get off Norco; i have a severe disc problem in my upper back and want something more natural; which Kratom product should I get? I wouldnt mind the extra energy either. Fadlan caawin.
Thanks!
I’ve been using Kratom for about 2 sano. I have a background of depression and social anxiety. I also have hereditary high blood pressure.
Kratom has helped alot with my anxiety and depression. I am afraid to take anti depressants, I know people who use them.
The biggest thing I like about Kratom is it keeps my blood pressure in a healthy range.
Before discovering Kratom, my BP would be anywhere from 140/90 si ay u 150/95. That’s WITH prescription BP meds. I’ve been on Clonodine, Benicar, Lisiniprol, Cozaar, these meds do not work for me. Bad psychological side effects. Very disconnected feeling. I stopped taking these meds.
5 mg Kratom capsule, twice a day, my BP averages 116/68 si ay u 120/80. I have had readings of 112/63. Feeling great.
I have tried 5 different strains. So far Bali Supreme seems to work for me best. Unlike an opiate, it doesn’t ‘peak’ then come down. It has a long life, I can still feel it 4-5 hours later.
0 side effects except some drowsiness. Never feel ‘dope sick’ or craving.
I’m glad Kratom is legal in my state. I need it to manage my high blood pressure.
I learnt about Kratom years ago I used it to get off my morphine addiction it worked great got rid of my withdrawal symptoms for the most part then I just stopped taking it because I don’t like the taste if it tasted good I wouldent have just found 100 grams in my freezer what a good time as well as I just broke my finger and was scared of being prescribed pills and start abusing again but thanks to an old stash I’m set :) I could probably never develop a habit with crushed or powdered leaf but I could possibly see a person with an addictive personality could take extracts a little often so be mindful and carefull do your research and best of luck to everyone!
Kratom was recommended to me about a year ago. It’s been a great product to assist with issues such as lack of energy, low mood, and social anxiety. I’ve been to the doctor and tested for all of those issues. Everything checks out fine, so none of that is medical related. I’ve tried prescription drugs only to be bombarded by negative side effects that are worse than the disease. When I take Kratom, I find my choices outside of that are healthier such as no craving for coffee or alcohol. When not on Kratom I would abuse both. So this definitely helps.
I want to increase my sex drive, help my irritability, and have energy. Anyone have suggestions of the best way for me to use kratomite? Does the e cig work as good or would the pills be best? ?
this is a good herb and an excellent substitute for opiates. I take about 3 grams of powdered leaf and it seems to do the trick. I hope that it doesn’t get abused and developed into a potent form so it can remain safe and legal. So my advice to anyone who enjoys it is to keep it to yourself and be responsible and we can continue to enjoy it in peace.
The key to reducing kratom hangover i’ve found… keep tolerance low by cycling strains! I still use the same dose (.7g) waxaan isticmaali 2 years ago when i started and I keep around 8 strains on hand always to pick from! No hangovers. Love it keep spreading kratom awareness :)
