[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 183658, member: 18023"] UPdate on my Kratom usage. Now I have tried ~2 grams (nearly) every day since July 22nd. For me, I would rate it very positive, not as positive as TRT, but the most positive supplement I have taken. It's very good for manual labor, and while I haven't had a chance to try it in a gym / working out, I expect it would be a big positive. For me, it affects my mind feeling more focused, motivation, energy levels, appetite declines, I can get a lot more yard work done. Since it's a stimulant at the levels i am taking no doubt it would keep me awake, but I tend to take it before noon. Latest I have taken it is 4 PM. I usually take it with 800 mgs of dopa mucuna going on the theory it will synergistically increase dopamine. I don't take it with cannabis, but maybe give that a try this Friday. Reason for giving it a try that way, cannabis usually makes me sleepy along with the feelings of being "high". But I am under the impression cannabis screws around with REM sleep, so I am am tending to not use it as a sleep aid. At first, I tried using cannabis mostly to help sleep, but it's a mixed picture in regards to sleep. Sometimes cannabis seems more inclined to make me drowsy / unmotivated but also more inclined to say awake longer. Getting a solid 6-7 hours of sleep are often a challenge for me, while I am not sure, it seems higher levels of testosterone messes around with my ability to stay asleep. Using kratom, I get really tired at 8-9 PM, since I had often did a fair amount of physical work, I suspect it's the combination of that and kratom fading. I am not yet sure if kratom is good for administrative work, paper work etc. The focus part is good, but it seems to be better when doing some sort of physical work. I don't have a lot of chronic pain, it does seem to work to reduce pain, and it's commonly used for that, but chronic pain isn't a big problem for me. I have a touch of arthritis in my hands, at 68 that is pretty common, and it doesn't bother me and I need to focus on stretching my hands to notice it. Lately my neck hurts, not sure why, sleep position maybe arthritis maybe? (The neck pain was before kratom.) One thing, I am surprised that kratom actually has such a noticeable effect. [/QUOTE]
