MM is going to be one of the vendors I buy from. You bring up a good point, which is why I'm going to get three different strains and see what works best for him. He essentially told me he's one of those people that needs something, but the side effects of his SSRI's and other meds are terrible.jabro70 wrote:I’d probably get them a good Green or Gold. (Mitraman’s Gold Borneo comes to mind). Just keep in mind that someone who has never had any leaf before is not going to respond to FIRE leaf like all of us. It takes some time to learn how to “feel” Kratom. And then it takes months to start feeling the nuances of different strain “colors”.
I think the key is to get someone to try it a few times. My father was nothing but skeptical about it so I left him a little care package of several different strains with a note on each that said “sleep”, “anxiety”, “pain”, “mood”, etc. Within 2 weeks he was asking me “hey do you have more of that tea you gave me for anxiety?”

Some other great options to consider ...
Inland Botanical - has a great green Malay ...moodlift and euphoric
Lucky herbals -GMD and green Hulu are great moodlift
Bow Key -has a stellar green and white MD,
Benni - JongKong MD, super green jk,
green elephant , Red indo , super bent ,MD blend
Insense/Goldleaf- white Hulu
All of the ones I listed have been exceptionally moodlifting for me ...
Your a great friend to be doing this !Good form ! Kratom helped me off meds after my first week of taking every day... haven’t slipped back into depression going on 3 years ...
Kratom is A perfect gift to someone getting off meds !
What is a gold strain if I may ask? I am so confused with all the types!jabro70 wrote:I’d probably get them a good Green or Gold. (Mitraman’s Gold Borneo comes to mind).

I'm very aware of body chemistry being a factor, I ended up ordering a split kilo from Mitra Man and am going to give my friend one of each strain and let him decide which he prefers bestSlayro wrote:Hey! So I think a few others have touched on this already, but I'd recommend that your friend maybe try a few different strains. We're all different in the way that we metabolize kratom, so what's super euphoric to me, may only be slightly euphoric for someone else. There are some folks who even find some strains to be incredibly energizing, while others find those same strains to be rather sedating. I guess my point is that, with kratom, like most other herbal products, and even pharmaceutical medications, there's typically a bit of trial and error, and playing around with strains/doses, before someone lands on their "perfect" strain/set of strains.
Most greens tend to be pretty middle of the road for me, though. They give me just enough energy, without causing my anxiety to go through the roof because they're too stimulating. I would probably tell your friend to sample a few (maybe even one of each "color"). I hope this helps!
!A “Gold” can either be a blend or a certain drying method. The vendors that blend strains to make a Gold usually say that it’s 50% Green and 50% Red or some combination (percentage of strains may vary).topnotch wrote:

Feel free to continue posting your most euphoric strains, as I still am going to try another vendor or two!
