Very Bad Kava Experience

So I decided to try Kava after reading about it online. I bought Kava Kava Extract. It had 75mg of Kavalactones in each capsule. Everyday I would take some before school slowly increasing the dosage trying to get some effects. I never really got any effects or if I did it was for a really short amount of time. So I decided to up the dosage and take 24 capsules which was 1800mg of Kavalactones.

At 7:15am before school I downed 24 capsules. About 30 minutes later I started to feel a little relaxed and that ended soon. At 8:30am I started having a very good sense of sound, where I could hear things very well but loud noises would hurt. Then I didn't feel anything different until about 9:45am, which was 2 and a half hours later. At first my head just felt really cloudy and my vision was a little blurred and slow. I lost some of my motor skills and would stumble if I got pushed. My friend at my locker pushed me and I completely lost control and fell backwards and couldn’t get up without help. Then I started to have a “I can do anything” feel where I felt like beating someone up. I became very social and started talking to everyone, and most people just ended up trying to get me to leave them alone. I also was very happy and couldn’t stop smiling.

At about 10:00am the effects I had started to wear off. I was mostly back to normal except I still had some vision distortion. I was sort of upset that my trip was ending so soon, but I was also happy that I finally achieved a good trip. I stayed pretty relaxed until about 10:30am where I began to feel violently ill. My stomach felt horrible and I felt like I was going to throw up for sure. At about 10:35am I almost knew I was going to throw up so I asked my teacher if I could go to the bathroom. Once I started walking down the hall I gagged in my mouth and ran to the nearest garbage can. I threw up over 10 times in 3 different garbage cans on the way to the bathroom where I waited until I felt like I could go down to the office. I went to the office and called my dad and told him that I just threw up and he was going to come and pick me up from school. The lady in the office wouldn’t even send me back to class she said that I looked green and thought I was going to pass out. I felt sick all day. Now it’s the day after that, and I have a horrible headache.

All in all I must say that before I got sick I did have one of the best trips ever. If it wasn’t for getting sick I would definitely try this again. probably some day will try Kava again but just not as high of a dose.
