I've tried kratom twice now and haven't really felt too much from it. I don't know if I don't have the right strain for me or if I need to dose more. I have Maeng Da, Nirvanio brand. I don't know if it's red or green vein, because I do believe I've heard of red and green maeng da, maybe white too. The guy at the smoke shop said this one is more energetic like. The first time I took 2 grams. Waited an hour to feel what should have been the peak of it. I didn't feel much, but I was just feeling good that day which is very unusual. I took .5 grams maybe an hour later. And then another .5 an hour after that. For a total of 3 grams. Still felt good the rest of the day and that was that. Today I tried 4 grams all at once. Didn't seem to feel much the entire duration instead of just being in a really good mood again. Is kratom just pretty subtle for some and is a nice mood elevator? I also just smoked some weed. Just one hit from a cigarette one hitter. Very quickly have I begun to feel not good at all. It may be what dysphoria feels like, I'm not sure. Definitely killed the good mood and feeling. It may be that kratom just rids me of some anxiety while Marijuana induces it.
