This is my first time entering a report on here. I will try to explain the effects of Kratom to the best of my ability. I have been reading other reports on here about Kratom, and there are more negative ones than positive. I am writing here to give to an all positive report.

I drink Kratom fairly regularly, (3+ times a week) and I notice no tolerance to it. It actually has displayed to me 'anti-tolerance' qualities, meaning the more often I use it, the more Kratom likes me.

5:00PM - I begin boiling water in a regular size pot. I place 5 grams of dried Thai Kratom into the bottom of a 20oz heavy plastic cup (I like my Kratom drinks tall). After the water is at a full, rolling boil, I slowly pour the water over the dry Kratom in the bottom of the glass. This will yield a floaty-looking cup of leafy wet material. Don't fret, it will sink to the bottom. I stir the tea vigorously for about a minute.

5:20PM - The leafy matter has sunken to the bottom of the glass, and the tea has taken a wonderful amber brown hue. It is ready for sipping at this point. I feel the initial effects after 3 or 4 sips. It acts fast. I boil more water.

5:45pm - I have finished my first glass. I don't drink the leafy matter in the bottom. The next pot of water is ready. I put 2-4 more grams in the glass on top of the old stuff. I again pour more boiling water over the Kratom. Stir vigorously as before, it should settle faster this time. I feel very good and 'toasty' at this time. The relaxing feelings that come very fast are setting in very well.

6:30 PM - The opiate effects are getting a lot stronger. I feel very euphoric, and am developing an enormous sense of well being. It just keeps getting better. I become more talkative to my roommate. I am on to my third cup.

6:50pm - I am halfway through my third cup. In addition to the relaxation and feelings of well being, I am starting to feel quite stimulated. I get up to tidy up a bit. I feel very social. I am a MJ user, every day, and I tend to get rather quiet when I use it. Kratom is a very social drink. I only wish we could rid ourselves of alcohol and drink this socially in bars.


As you can see, the effects of Kratom are very fast acting. I am a regular user, and I prefer making it into tea. The variety that I get regularly has a wonderful roasted taste, and a numbing effect on the mouth and throat. There is a bitterness to it, which I have read lots of complaints about the taste, but the nummy takes the bitter away. I add no sugar of honey. If you REALLY don't like the taste, put a little peppermint or chamomile in the the cup along with the Kratoms.

I have noticed that Kratom has wonderful anti-anxiety, anti-depressant, painkilling, diuretic, prolonged sexual intercourse, and even nasal decongestant qualities. It is my cure all. I have noticed no detrimental effects from drinking it, and at any quantity. My body seems to tell me that I have had all I need, once I have reached an awesome plateau of good feelings.

I have also noticed potentially awesome synergetic qualities in Kratom. Kratom potentiates other substances I've noticed. I have eaten some quality ecstasy and drank Kratom at the same time, and the Kratom keeps up with the X.

I wish I could go on, but I feel as if there might be a more appropriate place to post all of my findings on Kratom. I also have some cultivation info, and there is not much information on that anywhere in the net.
