Kratom for Introverts

Opening Up

Some of us are natural born extroverts, and many others develop a more talkative tongue as we age. But some of us clearly define ourselves a bit inside our head, an overthinker, or a bit on the shy side, and while some are content with being the quiet ones, others want to be more confident or talkative with our peers. Especially, if we’re eager for conversation but full of self doubt.

We have questions to ask, advice to give, and stories to swap, but that pesky overthinking troll invades the brain and prevents us from opening up for fear of being judged unfairly or ostracized, and as a result, we might seek something that will help us open up and toss nerves to the wayside.

If you’ve come across the recommendation for Kratom for being more outgoing, you’re on the right track.

Kratom for Shy People

With more social events being added to the calendar, introverts are questioning how to be less shy at parties, outings, and even small get-togethers. And many are preferably looking for natural ways to feel more relaxed socially. Of course, plenty of prescription drugs have been developed to assist with this, and it is important to speak with your healthcare professional if this is a route that sounds more promising.

✅ But for the natural seekers: Kratom checks both the natural and mood boost boxes.

So does Kratom make you more talkative? It certainly has the potential to! The main compound in Kratom leaves, Mitragynine, is the key player responsible for Kratom’s effects on one’s opioid receptors, adrenergic receptors, and possibly serotonin/dopamine systems. Many users describe low-to-moderate doses of Kratom as mildly stimulating, socially easing, and supplying a mood boost.

Other alkaloids include:

Paynantheine – this compound may contribute to muscle relaxation and reduced physical tension.

Speciogynine – this compound is potentially relaxing/calming.

Ultimately, it isn’t a single compound but a combination of effects in the plant responsible for looking to come out of their shell:

Reduced inhibition
Mild euphoria
Elevated mood
Increased energy at lower doses
Decreased self-consciousness

How to Be More Social With Kratom

Consume it. 🤪

Okay, but all sarcasm aside, planning ahead for Kratom’s sociability benefits is key. The proper dosage is also important to find that sweet spot. Do you want to enjoy Kratom with people and take in the effects as the event progresses (Kratom Drinks and Kratom Drink Mix are good options), or do you want to be at your ‘social best’ when you first walk through the door (Kratom Tablets and Kratom Gummies require no prep work and can easily be popped in your mouth while you’re still getting dressed and finishing up last minute chores before going out. Using Kratom before social events is a good idea if you need a little boost early on).

Kratom’s early effects take place about 30 minutes after consumption, but this also correlates to an individual’s body weight, tolerance, food intake, and sensitivity to alkaloids.

Its full effects clock in at around the 60-90 minute mark, where Kratom for a confidence boost really shines through. Most users report Kratom helping with overthinking and allowing them to talk a bit more confidently, if not more in general.

Kratom can also be enjoyed as a great alcohol alternative! If cocktails aren’t your thing, sipping a Speciosa Soda or Golden Grove amongst the crowd will have you feeling great and honed into conversation and laughter. Though it is important to read the labels and not exceed the recommended daily dosage. Many beer drinkers can get away with 5 or 6 cans in a night; Kratom users have to keep it on the lower side.

Kava is another contender in the alcohol alternatives circle. Read more about its benefits and possibly mixing opportunities at our Kava Mixology Blog HERE.
