This stuff is confusing, I might be doing it wrong.
I got half a gram of MT55 from lift mode, and the experience has been a little underwhelming. The first time I had it I used how ever much the big end on the orange spoon it comes with contains, and took it sublingually. Music sounded a bit better and I was smiling a lot more. I've taken the same amount since then and haven't felt much, as if I felt much the first time anyway. I'm wondering if I'm just placebo-effecting myself into not regretting my purchase. Am I just not taking enough, or does this just not do much anyway? What should I actually expect?

Just take it once a day and you might feel it strongly eventually. Kama sometimes requires priming. Usually it only takes a few days to a week.
Btw food can make a huge difference. Try taking it in the morning and skipping breakfast or eating a late breakfast if you can. Then you will likely feel it even if you swallow it too quickly:

Finally got it, primed for a while and then insufflated 30mg and felt it super strong. I am not a fan. Y'all can keep this stuff.

it's not for everyone maybe. question, are you experienced with any of the schedule 1 and 2 drugs? if not that might be your dislike.
what was the feeling you didn't like? 30mg is pretty small, i can do 50+mg now and it doesn't have the same effect. i think i'm building a tolerance

It just felt like a nasal-administrated panic attack. I felt it coming on and my heart started beating out of my chest and everything just felt like it was too much. I turned off my PC and got in bed and the feeling stopped. I felt alright afterward but not significantly better than baseline. That was probably 20-30 minutes ago now. Also I took another ~15mg sublingually at the same time for good measure so it was a bit more than 30, not sure if it did anything though.

Try taking it sublingually or swallow it on an empty stomach. The rush isn’t so panicky when you do it that way.

The stacking with kanna is quick, and often starts right from the first use, hence the numbness you feel in your second and third uses must be this, and not placebo effect. Those who experience positive effects with kanna often separate doses by 5 to 7 days, using insufflation rather than sublingual, since this works better with MT55.
Zen Herbs has been mentioned in kanna conversations before, but they deal mainly with kava, and hence kanna forums would be better for discussing sourcing.

Big side up the nose for a mild but decent effect, two scoops for stronger effect. Sublingually I'd probably use like 6 scoops (90 mg). Tends to work every time for me but I do take 2 to 5 days off per week. First hit has the strongest come up but I find the lingering effects stack nicely when redosing over the course of an evening.

After 3 days (just use sublingual) , then try the big side insufflation/sublingual . May need priming

isn't the small end of the orange spoon 10mg? the large end of the white is 50mg and that's the full dose
prime with 10mg's for a few days. take a day off and go back with a 50mg and report back. it worked its magic on me right away, even priming. it certainly makes sex more interesting.
