For me no matter the dose, strain, or source kratom always acts as a stimulant. It's pretty much like natural adderall without the anxiety and unpleasant side effects. Anyone else like this?
Same here man, that is the main reason why I love using kratom before work or school. The added benefit is I get to experience these brief moments of sheer euphoria while I nod out for a minute here and there.

I enjoy kratom way too much. And for that reason I can't be around it anymore unfortunately. Pretty sure I've talked about this before, but I'll go from dosing 5 g's twice a day to 10g's 5-6 times a day in a matter of 3-4 days.
Last couple times I ordered 1kg (2.2lbs) I went through it in roughly 3 weeks.
Overall I think it's an amazing plant if you can control yourself. Especially when comparing it to traditional opiates, but I can't

That sounds like it would make me very sick just from that amount of powdered leaf alone...

yeah man this shit is horrible with the tolerance you get
I started out just chewing like a leaf at a time and within weeks I was popping pills filled with the stuff, the fresh leaf just wasn't cutting it anymore. Fast forward a couple months I am doing my own extractions and making super concentrated and even more deadly extracts of the stuff. I wouldn't be able to get out of bed in the morning until I popped my kratom extract capsules. I'd have to dose at least 7 times a day just to functon and everyone was worrying about me... it hurts to think about the pain I caused my family from my selfish kratom use. In the weeks leading up to when I was sent to rehab I was plugging huge mounds of teh extract I was making with a turkey baster. Now that's rock bottom. Thanks to narcotics anonymous and support from all of my family I am now clean 7 weeks. I can't lie, I often dream about loading up that turkey baster and putting a fat load of extract in my ass. Those are the worst, waking up just before I do it. But hey, I just gotta do 1 day at a time and I'll be ok.

You're not the first person to ask me that here and most certainly won't be the last. Dosing 10g's about every 3 hours comes out to 350-420g's a week. So it's gone in about 3 weeks. Maybe even a bit less.
I've heard a lot of people say they get dizzy at higher doses. I've gotten dizzy to the point where it was a bit uncomfortable once. That was a 2 15g doses with no tolerance within a few hours of each other.
Sorry to answer your question with such horrible music, but maybe:

To be fair to Kratom and its' awesomeness I'm the same way with any drug including psychedelics. The only drug I can have a surplus of and not severely abuse is weed.

Yeah I am not surprised, that is some crazy dosing.
I have 2 questions for you.
1, have you abused harder opiates in the past?
Seems like people who either already have been opiate addicts/ have burnt their receptors out abusing harder drugs don't get much from kratom or need much higher doses.
2, have you tried ordering from different sources? There can be a pretty big difference in quality/ freshness which makes me wonder if you either have weak stuff or just don't have the chemistry for smaller doses.
I get dizzy if I eat past 3-4 grams of some potent stuff usually, feels like a never ending head rush/ light headed feeling.
That song was painful to watch, I got like a minute into it. I have friends that are super into crap like that. I can't stand it.

lol, sorry about the music. It's what came to mind.
To answer your questions:
1. Yes. I was addicted to true opiates for 4 years straight. I was clean for around 8 years but dabbled with dope a few times at low doses since January. It just came around and I said fuck it. Thank goodness I can't get my hands on anymore but if a couple more stamps came my way in the near future, I wouldn't say no. So you're most likely right about my abuse with Kratom stemming from that.
2. Yes. 5 different, reputable online vendors in the 2+ years that I've been experimenting with Kratom. I've had very weak batches as well as very potent batches depending on the vendor and strain. My current vendor, or at least the one I used most recently and ordered bigger quantities from, came with alkaloid concentration sheets for each strain I ordered. So it's not that I was eating weak kratom. I probably just dose the way I do because of what I stated answering your first question.
It was never a tolerance issue either because if I would eat it for 3 weeks straight, I would wait at least a month to order more. So yea, I think that about covers it.

Thanks for the info, that definitely explains it.
No problem about the music either, I just am a music snob 
Do smaller doses work for you at all?
I generally just eat 3-5 caps at around 300-400mg each so I rarely push 2-3 grams and it helps me from developing much of a tolerance at all even after weeks of daily use.
But I have never used any other opiates besides maybe a teeny bit of pharms for surgery.
This is a song that comes to my for me when I think about kratom.
Mainly just becouse of its potential to fuck up many corrupt industries that have a tight grip on the world.

I take Kratom every day to keep me away from other things. the white veined are actually the least on the pain relieving side. maeng da red is the strongest when it comes to pain management. Kratom is a godsend though!! don't believe the hype about there being no withdrawal symptoms!!! so glad it helps you

Well I must say I enjoyed this batch! I redosed 3 grams shortly after posting them again 5 grams, 6 hours later. Kratom is a stimulant for me as well no matter the variety, however this white vein is my new favorite because I find it more clear headed and focused. It is an in between type thing for me to keep me off of a constant tylenol(with opies) regimine week in week out. I think this white vein is going to be my new go to, it has a low side effect profile compared to the rest I have tried. I wouldn't have tried it myself had I not heard positive things here first! I appreciate y'all.

Have you tried mixing them?
My fave right now is 1/2/3 parts red/whit/green
Usually just 5 caps, 3 green, 2 white, and 1 red. It always gets m a nice solid effect for less than 2 grams and I find it to b super balanced between effects.
