I am pretty new to kratom. The first time I tried it, it was hard to get down and I didn't feel that it did anything. However, my friend had a different strain to try and the 'perfect juice' as a mixer, so I decided to dive in. I took his advice, and tried his mixture alone later that day.

T+0:00 - 4 tsps (10 grams) of powdered 'Old School Thai' kratom.

This was put into a standard plastic 12-ounce bottle of organic orange juice found at any health food store, the bottle was closed, and the mixture was shaken vigorously for about 20 seconds. Then, the mixture was downed as quickly as possible. It wasn't too bad, it tasted more like pulpy orange juice than anything else.

There was quite a bit of powder stuck to the side of the bottle, so with a bit of tap water, I shook it up again and drank the remains. This time, the taste was a bit off... Not sure if it was necessary to do this, as the experience was pretty intense.

T+0:15 - Feeling anxious. Something is happening, but I'm not sure where it's going. I decide to keep a journal.

T+0:25 - Wow, now there's something. My mind is buzzing, alert. I look in the mirror to see red eyes staring back at me. I start to pace, wondering what to do with myself, and i wonder where this is headed.

T+0:30 - I can't sit still, but I feel great! Want to find something to do. I look around my room, see my bass, my x-box, and my computer. I go for the bass.

T+0:50 - Unbelievable music. I haven't felt that much energy behind creating something for years. What's next... I go for the x-box. Not a moment wasted, definitely don't want to relax.

T+1:45 - Feeling great, and I can't tell if it's increasing or decreasing in strength. I've felt the same for a while. Playing video games was more fun than usual, and the time is flying by. Time to go outside for a walk. The sun is beating down.

T+1:50 - I come back inside hurriedly. I do not feel sober enough to handle neighbors glances, wondering what I'm on. Feeling a bit anxious now, that experience threw me off. Hoping to find it again.

T+1:55 - Tried to play my bass again, but the time for that has passed. Can't find the energy again. My anxiety is growing and I'm wishing I could just sit down and chill. I put some music on and try to relax.

T+2:10 - After some breathing and jazz playing in the background, my buzz is back to feeling great. I go for the video games once again.

T+3:00 - Now the feeling is decreasing. My stomach is a bit on edge. I'm now tired of video games and tired of music, but relaxed enough to put on a movie. Still feel good. I now realize that I took too much, that where I am now would be a good peak. Next time, I'll cap it at 3 tsps.

T+5:20 - The movie is over. I felt great lying there on the couch. After the movie was over I stayed still on the couch for several minutes before turning off the TV. I am not as focused or energetic as I was before, but I feel calm and good in general.

T+6:00 - I think the kratom has left my system. I feel exactly as I did before taking it, there doesn't seem to be a comedown.

I will be taking kratom again, though next time, I think I'll take less than 10 grams unless I have a solid plan of what I'm doing with my time.
