Is Kratom worth it?

I quit drinking about a year and a half ago. I got into the shrooming thing and completely fell in love with the whole process. I was looking at the kratom website today and almost ordered a batch. I read up on it and got mixed feelings. Most of the posts on here about kratom are like 7 years old. I know what the effects are, but what is the best way to go (i.e. capsules, extracts, commercial grade....?) Has anyone ever tried it on a low dose of shrooms? Feedback please.
Thanks.

I do Kratom every day because I got kicked out of pain management. It does help wit the pain, nothing like oxy but it helps. You can get a decent buzz going with it too, but i don't really enjoy it that much. It makes my eyes feel "lazy" like when I try to look at something it takes a while for my eyes to follow.. really weird and IMO doesn't feel anything like an opiate, but that could be because I am tolerant. Give it a try, can't hurt.

What is the best to get? I've heard capsules are good/not good, x15 is great/over priced and plain leaves are the way to go. BTW, I may just like that lazy eyes thing.

Yeah def go with just plain leaf... it may be nasty as hell but it's the best value. I buy superfine bali kratom which is just leaf grinded into a power. I usually put a spoonful at a time in my mouth and then wash it down with juice. You could load up some gell caps with it too if you can't stand the taste.

Think it has mild pain killing properties though I wouldn't advise anyone to use it soley for that purpose or they might be a little dissapointed. It's a very versatile plant that's for sure, some strains produce energetic highs whilst others sedate you. UEI is in a world of its own though and up there (for me) with pod tea as far as the strength goes. UEI also gave me my first ever proper nod but back then my tolerance was at its lowest so that would've been a big contribution (damn I wish my tol was that low these days, lol.). The trick to get the most out of yer kratom is mix a few different blends together, you have no idea how effective this is! Plain leaf + an extract + an enhanced blend is feelsgoodman.jpg!

I've been taking kratom everyday for the last 6 months for pain and recreation. It gets rid of my anxiety and helps me get things done . The only problem is, I'm physically addicted and the withdrawals are not fun at all. Bones start to burn, agitated, I can compare it to most other opiate withdrawal symptoms. Overall it's a great pain releiver and does produce a pretty good amount of euphoria and work ethic. I'm trying to get off of it but it's so hard since it's legal and so easy to get. Good Luck! BTW How much do you guys normally dose at one time. 3-4Grams or more>? I'm very curious.

I have been wanting to try kratom. I would be curious to know how it goes with a dose of mushrooms. Anybody try this combo?

I ordered some a few days ago. I'll def let you know how it turns out. I'm going to go with a regular dose of Kratom and low (2 g) dose of cubies for my first time.

Nice! Did you give her leaves, caps, extract??? Just wondering if I should select a different form next time.

Nice. I'm gonna order some when I get paid. From what I have read, it sounds like a good time.

It's decent. I went with regular leaf, which requires more material and is gross as a fucked turd, but you get more bang for your dollar.
You can still over do it though, so careful. Puking isn't ruled out.

Yeah okay this thread just got me. I'm gonna spend a little bit on some herbals this weekend, pick up some Kratom, Kanna and Wild Dagga.
Kratom looks kinda expensive though; I'd prolly have to buy a 1/4 lb in order to have enough for long enough.
Could someone please provide a list of effects or a general description of the experience? I know where to find erowid but I'm curious about reports from here.
