I was a co-owner of a Kava-Kava bar in Maui. Maybe we were limited to the quality of Kava Kava we could serve. We made it smashing Kava with fat stick in a bowl of water. We only let real Hawaiians do it though. |

9teen.47™ User ID: 830885 United Kingdom 12/01/2009 01:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was addicted to prescription painkillers. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 794231We can buy packets of Paracetamol over the counter in the UK, that contain small amounts of cocaine. But I doubt anyone gets addicted to them because they will give you a real bad headache if you take to many. But they are quite good for general pain relief and toothache. But in the US you can only get similar medicine with a doctors script. I think that things are way too much over regulated. Zec 12:3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it. Psa 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, [and] all the nations that forget God. Jer 6:2 I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate [woman]. STOCK UP NOW. You should have at least 6 months worth of basics for every member of your household. Stay away from crowds when trouble starts, do not forget water storage, tobacco is worth more than gold or silver, and be kind to hungry children. |
Meatball User ID: 821289 Canada 12/01/2009 01:25 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Iboga has a central role in the West Central African Bwiti religion which is one of the three official religions in Gabon today. It has been involved in many Bwiti ceremonies, festivals and rites for hundreds of years.(4) Out of these rites and ceremonies, the initiation ceremony is considered one of the most important and usually involves the ingestion of high doses of Iboga by the new initiate. In this ceremony the young men take Iboga for extended periods, sometimes up to three days, in order to become members of the religion. During the ceremony, a few designated members remain close to the initiate to monitor his condition while musicians playing drums and harps are also close by. Iboga is believed to allow the spirit to travel to the land of the dead and learn about past lives and the consequences of past actions. After the initiation ceremony, the initiate wakes up to what is considered a new life and relates the journey with other members.(1)(3) It is sometimes taken in lower doses as well after initiation by some as a stimulant to aid in hunting and is also used in some special ceremonies to heal sick people or drive out evil spirits.(1) Iboga is also consumed by the entire community on night ceremonies or Ngoze which are nights that are designated for communal sharing, celebration and religious fervor. The ceremony lasts all night and by the end the community is said to share in a blissful feeling of collective unity and love. This state is called "Nlem Myore" by Bwitists which literally means "One heart only" and describes a state of emotional flow where people understand each other as they share a feeling of oneness and good will toward each other.(3) In the United States, recently Howard Lotsof of New York began patenting Ibogaine, the plant`s most active chemical, for drug addiction treatment in 1985. He also campaigned for FDA approval for this use between 1982 and 1994. Despite poor financial support, experimental treatment for addiction and further research on Ibogaine are still being carried out today.(2) |

scottc User ID: 817448 United States 12/01/2009 01:48 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) Has a nice calming effect in healthy doses. Quoting: Hillcrestbenedryl is the fix-it-all drug...allergies, pain, nausea, sleeplessness, anxiety, etc etc etc +1 diphenhydramine/dimenhydrinate is a terrible recreational drug. at doses just over therapeutic you will get some bad body load and a nasty taste in your mouth. at higher doses it is a deliriant similar to tropane alkaloids like those found in jimson weed. at these high doses you will be completely delusional seeing and hearing things that are not there, but believing they are. this is very dangerous. also, at high doses, the body load becomes intolerable and will last for at least 24 hours, many hours after the hallucinations wear off. terrible stuff use by teens without access to other drugs and have yet to discover dextromethorphan.

Element User ID: 716154 United States 12/01/2009 02:18 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Go for Salvia - smoke it in a gravity bong (you can make one yourself, with a water bottle or soda bottle) or buy one from your local head shop which SHOULD also sell Salvia. It's sold as "incense" in some places. The trick with Salvia is to take a big rip, then hold it in for as long as you can. 10 to 15 seconds will give you a nice effect. Make sure you have a sitter unless you've done it before; everybody has a different trip, some are good and some are bad. The experience lasts for about 5-20 minutes, depending on the potency of your extract and your body type - but it's definitely worth at least trying it once. |
KratomFan User ID: 1332354 United States 04/07/2011 03:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | SWIM told me that Kratom works very well, but most folks don't know how to take it and end up puking it all up. SWIM said the best thing to do is mix the Kratom powder with Orange Juice. This does two things: (1) balances out the alkaloids so the ph levels in your stomach don't make you barf and (2) forces the alkaloids out, giving you a bigger high. If you still feel sick, take some dramamine. |
GypsieGirl User ID: 25789285 United States 10/18/2012 05:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Basically, if you've taken Kratom and you barf, you've overdosed. It is almost impossible to OD on Kratom because you will barf - like drinking. Mixing the powder with OJ is an excellent idea, but I found a pharmaceutical grade Kratom that is excellent - Kratom O.P.M. (organic pleasure management). It comes in a 3-capsule pack and you can start by taking just 1 capsule if that doesn't do it for you, you can take the 2nd or 3rd capsule. Kratom O.P.M. from MonsterHerbs.com has been a consistent performer and MonsterHerbs.com ships quickly. Love the Kratom O.P.M. (for pleasure and pain). ;-) |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 35310072 United States 02/27/2013 11:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just to add to the Benadryl tips, a non scheduled drug that is called a anti histamine like Benadryl is promethazine and it I'd used for nausea and our for anxiety in hospitals. The thing is that e even though is not scheduled it had such a close body reaction to pot and to narcotic anxiety medications that drug test can't tell the difference and the effects are very narcotic. M much stronger than Benadryl with no bad side emotions. They double the strength of your opiates and make them last three times longer at least. To get a prescription claim it helped you in the paSt with ongoing nausea from headaches. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 27358318 United States 02/28/2013 12:05 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Valerian is useless. So are all the other "calming" herbs. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 690024 It actually makes my heart race and gives me nightmares. But maybe I'm just strange. I find the only thing that remotely helps my anxiety is a benzodiazapine. Nothing else, nada. I've tried ALL the natural remedies without much success. Benadryl just makes me sleepy and tired. That's all. Doesn't do anything for anxiety. Codeine is very good too. Had a tooth ache once and damn that stuff worked like a charm. lol We can't get codeine in the US without a prescription unfortunately. I found that muscle relaxers such as Flexeril helped with that edgy feeling by relaxing my whole body. But again, not natural. You're never gonna find anything close to the real thing unfortunately. |

Has great taste when you cook with it and when you dehydrate it and smoke it, it gives about a 10-20 minute high that is very pleasant and mellow. I love it. I think it is in the salvia family as well. Some people also steep it as a tea. |

Kratom is a mild hallucinogen that is not like an opiate high but is the active ingredient in Heantos, a Vietnamese drug touted some years back as cure for opiate addiction. I flew to Viet Nam for this detox. I was on a high dose of methadone/benzos and darvon N. My methadone dose was 160 mgs. It knocked me out for aprox 60 hours after taking a series of reduced dosage of a mixed Kratom/herbal blend. It knocks one out for 6 hours and then after teh detox period for Heatos I is over they start Heatos II, which made me very jumpy. Since I did not feel any gross withdrawal symptoms (diahrea/vomiting/ or cramps) I found it interesting but I had they methadone fatigue/wekness and kept getting weaker and they deemed my detox a failure. |
HerbNerd User ID: 69790170 United States 08/12/2015 03:43 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The most commonly known herbs are kratom and blue lotus flowers (the stamens being the most potent part, for FYI). However, one that almost never mentioned is Lactuca Virosa, commonly known as "wild lettuce" or "opium lettuce." First off, it is not, in fact, an opiate. It does not react in the same way chemically as an opiate. The actual cause of the high is somewhat a mystery. But luckily has it never been shown to be addictive. This herb was used throughout history, beginning with the Ancient Egyptians. My personal experience has been positive and I can definitely say that the "high" is real, not bogus. I would recommend getting resin. |
