I like herbs
I don't understand why either. I used kava from December 2022 to February 2023 and it was always hitting. I started again that July, it was hitting. I recently got a batch of micronized Boronguru, one that used to 100% of the time make me feel real good, but I took like 12g of that and 20g of regular kava and don't feel a damn thing. One night I felt really, really good, but that was one night and I have like one dose left of Boronguru.
I don't really know what changed. Like, KWK micronized I honestly think has grown a great deal weaker. I used to be feeling it before I even rinsed out my cup. Standard kava from FVK hasn't been hitting as well either though. I was never this "reverse tolerance" guy either, it worked from day 1, it worked from day 1 after T-breaks. The stuff just simply doesn't work for me anymore, I guess. And yes, I always wait like 6 hours after I eat. Generally I feel a little relaxed, but I prefer to feel intoxicated and euphoric, which is all kava ever used to do.
I know this topic will likely be moved, I'm always having that happen. And yes, I know kava is fickle, but this is just like, not right. I do actually believe KWKs micronized kava has gotten a great deal weaker, because early this year, going through every strain, suddenly none of them were hitting. It was like 50%, now it's like 10%.
I know some nights it'll do a little, a moderate amount, or just plain fuck you up so hard you think you hit some more potent spot in the bag. Again, it's very fickle, I get it. Have used it on and off for 2 years and done plenty of research into it, but it suddenly not working for someone is some weird shit. Lately it just doesn't really do much at all besides that "little" warm comfy feeling. That's what I really miss, man. That carefree euphoric, everything's gonna be alright feeling. Having C-PTSD, I'll take anything that can help that, and I'd been trying to use kava to get off Diazepam, because it works so much better than that.
I don't take Diazepam anymore, for the record, but even when I still took it back in February, March, I'm just like "what the hell, why does this micro do nothing now?" There were always such unique feelings to each cultivator. Boronguru is my GOAT in total relaxation, Loa Waka is great if you want relaxation and just really strong shit, the strongest micronized kava I ever took. Just figured I'd say I don't take benzos anymore since someone would probably say "that was just potentiating the kava" but even back then it wasn't, because my tolerance to the Diazepam was quite high.
When I was first prescribed it, 5mg I'd black out. One time I tried 50mg and I felt completely normal, just calmer. That's like how 5mg was when I was first building any degree of tolerance. By the time I started using kava 2 years ago, my tolerance was already peaked. That's a big reason I wanted to get off of it, but I didn't purely use kava or anything. I did originally because I thought it was a GABA-A agonist but this is a myth.
So, I became familiar with each one micronized or not but still. Kava will hit sometimes, 4 days ago I was like finally, I have that amazing feeling back, but I did so much tonight and yeah... kinda blew like 35 bucks because Boronguru is my favorite and it's more expensive than it used to be. Just took all this powder and had like 2 good nights with it.
