@cs3000 said in Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum) eliminated OCD:

about mesembrine being more serotonergic

I recall reading that it's also a monoamine releaser

did u swallow after? and how long did you keep it in mouth?

I placed the powder between my lower lip and my gums. I refrained from swallowing for at least 30 minutes, perhaps even an hour or more. I allowed myself to swallow, drink and eat after that time period, but I didn't intentionally try to swallow the extract powder. I don't know exactly how long it took for me to get noticeable effects, but I remember that it was fairly quick. Maybe 10-30 minutes.

You can find information about different routes of administration and dosages for each from r/kanna. The post I linked to doesn't have any info about buccal administration though.

also did u notice improvements leading into it with the other 2?

I'm unsure of what you mean by this

@pondfountain I honestly have stopped taking anything for my ocd. I just need to learn to accept my thoughts as thoughts. OCD is similar in schizophernia to my opnion because you can have delusional thoughts but you belive them as true and shape your reality. Lately ive had an obssesion were I feel like I have to pee 24/7. Literally psychosomatic. I thought I had diabetes for a while and my doc said not traditional diabetes but maybe diabetes inspidus (water diabetes) which can either be caused by tumors or mental illines i.e scchizophernia or OCD. It is brutal but I cant use a life long crutch I hae to face my demons so I can stop being controlled by fear and accept uncertainty.
