Kava Enthusiast
I'd love to hear of a few vets krunkest experiences.
I *SO* prefer kava to alcohol.I really can't see preferring alcohol over kava???
I take an SNRI, and have for 25 years. If I miss a dose, about 12 hours to 24 hours later, I get "brain zaps" which is a feeling like being electrocuted for short little bursts on and off seemingly randomly. I wonder if this is a similar feeling? It's really unpleasant. I ran out after a move one time and 3 days into withdrawal, I went to an emergency room to get a temporary prescription, it was so bad.The first time was quite a few years ago with BKH boroguru. I ignorantly tossed and washed about six heaping tablespoons in an hour. I couldn't walk or talk, and It felt like I was being electrocuted, I don't know how else to put it. And the nausea was overwhelming.
Yeah, toss and wash sounds like it doesn't serve you well. I've overdone it a few times and it's not pleasant. It's mainly head spin and nausea which I rectify with some carbos in my tum and lots of water. I made a really strong batch last night and needed to take an hour out to level it out before continuing my session. I get this from drinking too much too fast, or not respecting the strength of the brew when I make a strong batch.I honestly don't really enjoy excessive consumption anymore. For me, the negative side effects, like bloating and nausea, greatly outweigh the positive effects when consumed in higher amounts. Finally, no more toss and wash for this guy
No, the zaps from the meds were a dizzying feeling centered in my brain, with a wooshing noise every time I moved my eyes. The effects of the dhm were so strong, I could actually sense the vibrations emanating from my body. Like if someone were standing next to me, they could feel it coming off of me. Regardless, I will never do it again. I don't enjoy profound effects anymore. The only way for me to not get the nauseous bubble gut syndrome, is to keep consumption to a small amount.So was the Boroguru-induced electrocuted feeling at all like that?
That's strange. 1/4 cup is a pretty standard dose for a lot of people. Did you mix it straight (toss and wash), or did you knead it in a bag?About 2 cups of 1/2cup of Fijian Wakacon mixed into 4 cups of water.
Now ^ THAT is what I call krunked!My craziest experience was this week, actually. It was terrible. I really just plain wasn't thinking, but I knocked back 2 tablespoons of Moi, 1 tablespoon of 11 year waka, 1 oz of kalm concentrate, and finished it all off 20 minutes later with a ball of paradise extract. It. was. fucking. terrifying. My face was numb, my eyes couldn't focus on anything, my head felt an immense amount of pressure, crazy amounts of eye lag, and the only way I could walk was to hold onto everything around me. I was seriously concerned about possibly having OD'd on kava (is this even possible?). I woke up 3 hours later and puked up some mouth numbing stomach contents and felt great after.
From now on, I go at a half tablespoon of micro every 20 minutes until I feel right with the world. That was a really, really stupid wake up call for me.
