Can someone tell me about this...is it better than the powder? Kik

Kiki, You can see alot of people have different opinions on the resin or extract. Some like it, some don't.
I myself love it, I don't have to do the pill filling, and pop a bunch of capsules and sometimes end up with a belly ache. I started using the resin 3 weeks ago and love it. I take a chunk of it, disolve it in a little bit of water in the microwave, then add it to my coffee. It just seems like strong coffee, you have a few leaves in it, but drink it. I like the instant feeling from the resin and in fact, one cup in the morning and one mid afternoon, and that is all I need. Sometimes I don't need the 2nd cup, and now I am trying to wean off of the kratom, so only one cup for me, then each day is a smaller chunk.

So the effects are quicker? I just stick the powder in my mouth and wash it down. I'm sending hubby for grapefruit juice.

The powder is too much fiber for my body. I make a lemon tea with the resin and lots of sugar. It does work quicker and seems to last longer.

I am almost embarrassed to post this, but I will anyway. I had read on other posts the resin was easier to take then the powder, so I purchased some. Well, Miss Smarty-Pants, that would be me, snipped off two pea-sized pieces and washed them down with a cup of herbal tea. I can feel the effects and so can my tummy. It is not feeling so good right now. I think I may have taken too much.

So, to make a short story long, since no one really knows the right dose when it comes to kratom, I am learning what works for me. And two pea size resins hunks aren't it. The upside to this is I didn't take any hydro's and that is a good thing. For the past week I have been in a great deal of pain and not fun to be around at all. I am experimenting to see if I can taper and find a level where I can survive taking less pain medication and still not have a lot of pain. This is really not the right time to try this taper jazz, but then, it really will never be the right time, will it?

Thanks for letting me ramble, but I felt the strong need to ramble. Have a great semi-pain free night!
