Do you know anything about psych meds, dopamine, and kratom?

I've been using kratom on and off for about three years, this is my third and final time kicking. The second time I kicked, I noticed my stimulant medication which I take for a sleep disorder stopped working. It wasn't until a week after kicking that my meds started to work again. 

Yesterday was my first 24 hours without kratom, my stims were working ok, until I got my hands on xanax. I took about six pills throughout the day. 

I woke up this morning and my stimulants are barely taking the fog out of my eyes, where on a normal drug free day I'd be great. 

Should I stay away from any psychotropic meds until the kratom is completely out of my brain for a few weeks? I don't want to fuck up my meds. 

My first problem with stims not working is when I was taking abilify, which will block stimulants to an extent for years, then bam, abilify makes stims stop working all out. So I stopped. The only rx meds I'm on now is Vyv 2x daily and xnx prn. 

I even noticed that dopamine replenishing supplements will keep my stims from working. 

Any advice for this noob? It's so hard to function without my stims. I def. don't think I have a tolerance, I think substances are inhibiting the stims function. I'm def. staying away from anything psychoactive for a bit and then I'll experiment a little once my neurotransmitters are at a decent function. 

Anyway to speed this along holistically without resorting to anything that messes with my brain chemicals? 

Thanks so much!!! 

I look forward to being off kratom, it's expensive and I would rather buy expensive makeup. The worst part is that I do get depressed a week after the acute withdrawal and makes me want to start again.

This is an old topic and I'm sad nobody answered it as I am curious myself. 

My ADHD medication also seems to have crapped out since I started doing kratom. I also take a benzo in addition to addies and neither one feels the same as it did pre kratom. I think it definitely hijacks all the dopamine and lowers the effectiveness of other meds. 

Also, I hope you were able to quit successfully! I got a weak batch this week and it a) has made mg meds work better and b. ) has made me realize that I don't wanna do it anymore. I agree, buying makeup is waaaaay better 

 
All I can say is that there are 30 some active alkaloids in kratom, meaning it does a whole bunch of things some of which you might not want. I've found it can be very hit or miss mixing kratom with other meds and it's probably best to avoid mixing it. I try to keep it to get through days when I'm not using different stuff. It does wk ok with trams, which is my main problem, but I've seen problems with other meds including mod@finil which is a stimulant that affect domamine levels (one of the cases of someone ODing from kratom was a person who mixed it with mod@finil).

 
What does Kratom do? I seen this in a smoke shop the other day. The guy didn't have much info on it except that it can help pain a little and it was all natural.

We have much info on it here, but a quick Web search will give you a fair amount of info. Different strains give different effects.

 
kratom has been a life saver for me and I will do xanz and brazillian marching powder and I have not noticed any effects on my dopamine or anything else as far as the way I feel there is not much info out there on people mixing it make try ewroid

  1. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: Pharmacies, too. I switched my psychiatrist and just went through a pill mill telehealth place for a half year, then it got popular and all major pharmacies stopped filling Rx stims for this company’s independent contractor-providers, regardless of any reason than they treated ADHD patients with stims and it was a lot of people. Independent medical judgment from clinicians licensed and following rules. I needed the treatment. Who cares how many patients use the company? They followed the rules.
  2. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: That’s wild. It should be medical judgment, not corporate fear of lawsuits. Go set that doc straight. You need to have pain controlled aggressively or not at all. Be consistent.
  3. N @ NYStateofMind: Monday Funday
  4. CnC5 @ CnC5: I hope all of DBG fam had a great weekend & a HAPPY EASTER 🐣 & HAPPY 420 🪴 Hope you guys have a great week as well!
  5. Telp @ Telp: Novels for me
  6. Telp @ Telp: It’s about to be happy Monday y’all. Have a great week and read some
  7. xenxra @ xenxra: @WTF7218 it may as well be that way with how little effort some of the people on here make to find information that's exactly where you would expect it to be.
  8. ontovzik @ ontovzik: When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
  9. ontovzik @ ontovzik: I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
  10. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  11. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
  12. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  13. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
  14. Alkazar @ Alkazar: @NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
  15. C @ Cheesus: Thanks xenxra
  16. xenxra @ xenxra: @Cheesus yeah, use snote
  17. P @ psychedpsych: Trump is cracking down….
  18. P @ psychedpsych: Hackers are the scum of the earth
  19. N @ NYStateofMind: so it was easy bc of my history
  20. N @ NYStateofMind: I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
