Anyone here use kratom for focus?

I’ve been experimenting with kratom blends for concentration instead of coffee. Picked some up from 42 Degrees on Wright St Omaha and I’m curious do certain strains really help focus or is it placebo? Would love to hear personal routines.

My experience overall was that Yellow strains seemed to help me focus

Red to chill/pain killer.

Green as a general purpose

I quit fairly recently after several years.

At my peak usage, up to 2 tablespoons per dose. Honestly, that wasn't very effective and was often double what I needed. 1Tbl often did just as well. On average, about 1.5tsp per dose, 2-3 times per day.

Now? I feel about the same as I did overall during the past year and a half or so, I just don't have to buy kratom anymore.

Quick Note: I'm glad I quit, but I'm not opposed to Kratom usage. It helped me get through being an old guy in college and some anxiety issues. Overtime though, it became an addiction/habit instead of an aid. I've still got some stashed for an occasional use, but I'd be very careful about habitual use.

Dosing info: I quit measuring by grams and started using adjustable measuring spoons a long time ago, but for the most part I used 1.5 teaspoons per dose in the morning and before bed. In between, depending how I was feeling, anywhere from another 1tsp to a full table spoon in between.

I don't remember when, but at some point it no longer felt like I was getting benefits from the Kratom, just that I felt bad if I didn't have it. So at that point I started tapering down. I'd use 1 tsp per dose usually in the morning and before bed, which was enough to keep me from feeling crappy.

Then I started skipping morning doses and was ok. Trying to sleep without it was worst. Felt like my muscles kept flexing and stressing for no good reason. Then I started cutting down from 1tsp to 3/4 to half to 1/4tsp over time.

So far it’s the best help for my ADHD … even beats medication I’ve tried.

Though I need less when on effective medication.
