Legality of Flying to Denver with Kratom
So I’m going to Denver for a few days. I saw that Denver specifically had banned kratom this isn’t marked as being “not for human consumption”.
I bought a small bottle of Red Vein Bali kratom capsules. I was thinking of just packing it in my checked luggage. But with Denver’s law, should I be concerned since mine is not marked “not for human consumption”?

Surgery/Pain med tolerance question
So I have hip surgery in about 2 weeks and I’m kinda worried. I have taken kratom multiple times within the past few weeks and I noticed my tolerance was starting to go up. I was taking less than 5g each time so not too much but sometimes I would take it multiple days in a row and that’s when I would notice my tolerance would kinda skyrocket. I’ve completely dropped them as I’m getting ready for surgery but I’m worried that the pain meds are not gonna work due to cross tolerance. Is 2 weeks enough for my receptors to fully reset? For reference I haven’t even had any withdrawals not even any sleep difficulties after multiple days usage. I’m just really hoping the pain meds are gonna work bc I don’t know if I’ll be able to deal with the pain otherwise. Anyone have any other tips or tricks that might help? Thanks.

Over 1 month using Kratom... I'm no longer an alcoholic, and my mom would be proud!
Kratom just for partying on night every weekend? : r/kratom
Update: Kratom is changing my life! : r/kratom
Hi everyone, so want to give my update of my use of Kratom.
As I posted before I've been using it only for nightlife, since I'm a nightlife guy and really wanted to quit alcohol which was ruining my life.
I can tell you it continues to do wonders. I have zero need to drink alcohol now, don't even feel the urge at all which is the best outcome. People keep trying to buy me drinks, but it isn't a "I must not," more like "Nah, I'm not interested at all."
I did switch from the tincture to the gummies this weekend, though, as I feel the gummies gave me that awesome boost for nightlife without the stomach issues and overall, just easier since the tincture can get really annoying - it's more practical. And still, I don't feel like using it at all during the weekday I'm pretty good mentally during the weekday, so it's just a friday/saturday thing.
I have a two month travel trip soon, and I'm excited after 51 countries not to drink. I've had chaos happen when drunk, blow through money... gonna take my gummies and it should be even a more memorable trip.
I'm saving money, don't have hangovers, working out, lost 5 pounds in the past month, connecting more with people, better mood... it's a completely different world.
My mom really wanted me to stay safe and quit drinking, when she passed away due to her battle with ALS I drank like crazy and spiraling, even during her ALS even if i was with her she worried when I would arrive the weekends blacked out drunk. I've wanted to change for years, but didn't have an alternative. I did promise her... "Mom, it's okay, I'm gonna be okay." And I'm telling you... she would be so proud right now!

Moderating use
Today is day 17 of no kratom.
I’ve taken a couple week-2 week breaks over the past year.
I’m feeling pretty good now, the first few days of withdrawals sucked but nothing crazy. I used around 10gpd at my peak.
I struggle with not taking kratom at all. I cant smoke weed because im drug tested for work and I simply do not like alcohol. Its hard for me to imagine never having the pleasure of something relaxing like kratom or weed for many years. I’d like to just use it once on the weekend so I can still have enjoy something that seperates me from a lot of my struggles, but i’ve found it hard to keep myself honest to using once a week.
I’d love some advice on how to do it and if thats how you take kratom as well.

The strain-name thing finally clicked for me — 'Maeng Da' and 'Bali' aren't what I thought
Took me way too long to understand this, so posting for anyone else who's been confused by strain marketing.
Most of the popular strain names — Maeng Da, Bali, Green Malay, Red Borneo — aren't standardized botanical classifications. They're regional/marketing names that got applied inconsistently across the industry. Two products both sold as 'Red Maeng Da' by different sellers can have different alkaloid profiles, origins, and processing.
What I've come to think actually carries information:
- Color (red/green/white/yellow) refers to leaf vein color at harvest and loosely correlates with when it was picked and how it was dried. That's a real variable.
- Country/region of origin is real too — Borneo, Sumatra, and Thailand have genuinely different growing conditions.
- 'Maeng Da,' 'Bali,' 'Elephant,' etc. are basically brand-level naming with no regulated definition. A seller can put 'Maeng Da' on almost anything.
So if I'm chasing a specific experience off a strain name, I'm chasing a label, not a formula. What's worked better for me is finding a seller whose testing and sourcing I trust and learning what THEIR color categories actually mean.
Am I oversimplifying? Curious whether people here weight color or region more when trying something new.

For others who have given up kratom what did they put in place if it, NOT another substance.
What other things did you do to fill the gap?

Fresh leaf, constipation, metamucil
Tea from fresh leaves has a lot of fiber. The leaves kind of lose their structural integrity and you get this (kind of gross) cloud that you can pretend you didn't see if you shake the bottle before you look at it...
I use how strong my poops are as the metric for how much I can drink. Note- I basically drink it all day every day unless I'm traveling for work. (Recipe is tea, honey, and lime with ice)
Anyway so if I start feeling a little backed up, or don't poop one day... I'll make sure to dial it back until I'm normal.
Now fiber is weird stuff. What's the cure for constipation? Often fiber. What's the cure for diarrhea? Fiber. Why? SCIENCE.
So I see this post a few weeks ago about a guy taking metamucil and it improving his kratom induced constipation. Wow, say I!!! Maybe it's different fiber or somehow I still don't have enough or or or... So when I got home from my work trip (they are several weeks) I brought metamucil and....
I backed up faster than ever. I don't think this is the magic bullet I hoped for. Sigh.

Would I be a bad friend for this?
One of my work mates is an alcoholic.he actually lost his job for drinking on shift recently. Kratom is known as a good substitute to get people off harder opioids. His drinking is a problem, and he's at an age where his health will take a big hit if he carries on.
Would I be wrong to suggest he take kratom to get off it?
I'm dependent on it but I believe I'm better off hooked on this than most other things including alcohol. Yes can't help people who can't help themselves etc etc, but I can't help but think it would do less damage to his life and save him money by suggesting he try it if he can't stop drinking unassisted and doesn't accept it.
Is it morally wrong to tell him about it?

Post surgery prescription meds
I thgouht after doing some research that I could decrease my 10 mg Percocet after surgery by doing my kratom at night instead. Last night at 7 I took my kratom. Felt pretty good and energetic. I took another dose at 4 am. Felt sweaty and chills like withdrawal starting at 7. I got up and had some loose bms. I took my my 7 am dose of Percocet and I felt a tiny bit better but not much. Then I took my 11 am dose and still felt pretty much nothing. I guess I answered my own questions about kratom taking up all the mu receptors so pain meds don't work as well. My question is what time today should I try to take my Percocet again? I'll suffer through the day as long as I can but I'm in pain and being thrown into withdrawals. When I had surgery I discontinued my kratom at 12 pm the night before and I felt the pain meds they gave me after surgery well enough. Would 4 pm be enough of a separation from the kratom to try again?

From Tea to Other Products
Hello! I am 30f in chronic pain for 2 months. Doctors all seem to think it’s intramuscular and the pain varies from day to day. For example; Friday I was working out with mild pangs and today I’m considering the ER for pain relief. I have been drinking green monkey strain pre-brewed from my local Kava Bar- they said they tested each small tea at about 45mg. It’s never synthetic as far as I’m told. I have to drink 3-4 to begin to feel the effects. It’s a bit of a drive and expensive in comparison to other vendors; however I’m highly apprehensive on buying powder or pill form. Can someone educate me and possibly help dose me or point me in the right direction? In cle Ohio where it’s legal.

how long for tolerance to decrease ?
i do not use regularly but i noticed my tolerance went up quite high to the point where i need 2-3 cups of kratom tea to feel something.
i use preferably red kratom even though i had some nice but different experience with the green strains.
when i get a 200g bag it can happen that i use daily for a couple days to a week.
often i take a month or plus brakes yet still it doesnt feel as my tolerance goes down sadly

Insomnia for m quitting
I've been using kratom for nearly 9 years and have attempted to quit a couple times in the last two but failed due to terrible RLS that would prevent me from sleeping. I've always been bad about measuring my consumption, but estimate it to be around 30 g per day. The thing is, I've never increased the dosage in the last 7 or so years .and have only taken it to keep the RLS at bay. I decided .again to attempt quitting about a month ago and was determined to succeed this time around. I managed to stop cold turkey and have not used since it's been 28 days. What's odd is that aside from maybe 4 or 5 nights of intense RLS, I've had absolutely no other withdrawal symptoms...well except for maybe one. While the RLS has subsided, I am experiencing terrible insomnia. More often than not, I just lay in bed and can not fall asleep. It's not anxiety as my mind does not race. I am just unable to sleep until around 7 or 8 am then I sleep for a few hours. I'm wondering if this is common and if so, how long will it take for it so go away.

Fine print on the new ban
Howdy, has anyone looked at the proposed ban and actually READ it? It states that anything above 1mg per CONTAINER will be illegal as of August 1st, which isn't supposed to be effecting pure leaf kratom. I just looked at a bottle of whole herbs kratom, which clearly states "all natural products in it's all natural form" 0.05% 7oh however it contains.0.27mg per capsule, so anything more than 3 capsules of kratom will be considered illegal. Now, let me be clear, I am not referring to tablets or shots, I'm talking about the clear gelatin or vegetable cellulose capsules. What I'm taking this to mean, is that this ban will outlaw the bottles of kratom capsules unless they're sold in quantities of 3. Given that information, either the kratom will be made considerably weaker in the future or I'll have to go back to the good ol' toss and wash which isn't even an option since I ended up with ulcers after doing that for a year.
I was just curious to see what everyone else thought about this since I've heard a ton of people saying that 7oh is the first step, kratom will come next. I know some people have said that politicians clarified stating kratom will be safe, but politicians lie. I was reading the website and of the medical cases they lost, two of the four involved KRATOM, not 7oh; in fact one was from 2014 and the other specifically states he was brewing tea from Kratom leaves. What are your thoughts on this?

Kratom user for nearly 8 years trying to stop
I‘ve been using green maeng da for nearly 8 years, in the beginning it was just one dose of 3-5g per day.
Today it‘s 4 doses of 8-10g per day.
I never really tried to stop bit it‘s always on my mind, specialy thining about my Future and medical risks, sometimes I lay awake in bes at night and all I think about how fucked it is that kratom controls me like this…
Anyone that has advice for me, please feel free to comment. I‘m at a point where I feel like the only option is seeking help from medical Professional.
It‘s just a big step you know. I‘m using since 17, i‘m 24 soon. It‘s just I am at this point, I don‘t even remeber when my life didn‘t revolve about kratom…
Please give advice if you have any❤️🙏🏼

Mitragyna hirsuta, for kratom withdrawls
It was banned in my state of Connecticut and I’m running low on my supply. Luckily I stocked up many monthes ago and it was officially banned back in February. Anyways, I’m starting to run low and was wondering if I buy hirusuta will it help the kratom withdraws or will I still withdrawal if I only take hirusuta? I’m wondering if I should taper down with the kratom until I’m fully off it or if I can continue to take kratom til it’s gone and then switch to hirusuta from there. I take kratom mainly as a sleep aid and because it works wonders for my back pain, but I cherish it mostly for the great sleep it gives me and would like to start taking hirusuta for sleep. But I just mainly wanna know if I have to taper the kratom or if I can completely replace it with hirusuta and not worry about withdraws. I hear it’s almost identical to kratom (not sure how true that is) please as many reply’s as I can get are welcome! I’d love to learn more about this plant too
Ps: I’ve seen multiple posts where people say it’s even more sedating to them than a red kratom strain. That sounds exciting to me because I adore a great nights sleep! Lol

Kratom and Woodworking: Any Experiences?
Any growers or woodworkers in the community or growers have trees that just didn’t make it do anything with it or any other *Mitragyna* wood? Most pictures stateside I see are of younger skinny or plantation model trees, not old growth.
I can’t imagine it being so uniquely valuable that it would ever be worth cutting a producing tree down for the lumber.
What made me think of it is watching Forged in Fire while doing housework this week. A raindrop Damascus chef’s knife with a dark green micarta and kratom wood handle would be a really exotic one of a kind item.
The trunk of a reasonably sized 5-10 year old tree that didn’t make it would probably be close to big enough for a handle based on pictures.

Almost no withdrawals while going cold turkey on a vacation
So, I went on a family trip to a country where kratom is illegal and apparently there is a low police tolerance if you get caught, so I did not want to risk it.
I was taking around 15g daily, I expected that I was going to have miserable withdrawals for at least the first five days.
But nothing really happened. I only had very very light symptoms, like a runny nose, glossy eyes and maybe I sweated slightly more. I had no headache or restless legs or depression.
I quit once before and during that time I spent the first week at home. Back then I took smaller doses and I took regular breaks, but my withdrawals were 10x worse. I had the worst headache of my life together with permanent cold chills and sweating, I was also heavily depressed.
I really wouldn't expect that a change of scenery and staying active would reduce the withdrawals so much.
