- Subject: Yohimbine HCL
-
- A friend of mine bought me a bottle of Yohimbine HCL 5.4mg tablets at
- a pharmacy in Mexico. When I take them they seem to make me more horny
- and give me a good hard-on. The trouble is that they seem to interfere
- with my sleep later on and the next morning I still get hard-ons every
- few minutes.

- I bought some of this stuff from a health food place..pure
- yohimbe...nothing else added..in capsule form.....i took like 4 of these
- and felt absolutely nothing....it said on the bottle it was direct from
- africa...and it was quite expensive...like $25 for 50 capsules...
-
- Is it better to boil the contents and make tea?..and if so why would that
- be different from just eating the capsules?...

- Hi there, my name is syris and I will be your guide for tonight. I want
- to tell you about my Yohimbe Bark experience. If you don't already know,
- Yohimbe Bark is suppose to be a aphodisiac (sp?) that is available at
- just about any herb shop. Anyways, I bought some early in the week and
- decided to try it out. I mixed seven heaping teaspoons of it with 1 quart
- of water. I boiled it for ten minutes and then strained it. I added a
- glob of honey and then proceded to drink it. It really did not taste that
- bad, but I would not drink it everyday. After that I went back to my
- computer and messed around for about 1/2 hour. Then I started to speed up
- like hell. It was like a mega dose of caffeine. Not pleasent at all. So I
- go to my room and lay down. I can't go to sleep because I am too wired,
- so I just listen to music for a while. Then an odd thing happened. I got
- an erection. But this erection was different than other erections in one
- respect, It would not go away. I was not thinking any sexual thoughts or
- masturbating. My penis just stayed erect. So this started to hurt a bit
- because I was wearing shorts... I decided that I had to masturbate this
- erection away. This is harder than it sounds. For one, my heart is
- beating pretty fast now and the stress of sex might be too much... but I
- did it anyways. So I start masturbating and it is starting to get really
- hard to continue... I keep on thinking I am going to have a heart attack.
- Finally I reached an orgasm. The orgasm I felt was different than most.
- It was prolonged. At that time I did not give a flying shit because not
- my heart was beating so hard that the room was turning black. I fell to
- the floor and waited for my heart rate to go down. It eventually did and
- I went back to bed. I did not sleep at all. I was up the whole night. And
- I had a constant feeling that I was going to throw up.... In summary, I
- might do it again at a lower dosage. Maybe... It really was not a
- pleasant feeling..... For more info, look in the natural-highs faq....
- That's all folks....

- After reading a bunch of FAQs about Yohimbe and seeing it mentioned in books,
- we decided to try it out. The alleged effects of Yohimbe (the inner bark from
- a west-african tree) were reported to be: stimulant, euphoriant, warm
- pleasant spinal shivers, mild perceptual changes, aphrodisiac.
-
- I tried the Yohimbe three times, twice by consuming the yohimbe directly and
- and the third time trying a tea. I tried 3 different dosages, the recommended
- dosage, slightly more than recommended dosage, and approximately twice the
- recommended dosage.
-
- The effects at all dosages were approximately the same, although at twice the
- recommended dose they were slightly more pronounced. The effects were all
- very subtle, not nearly what I expected them to be. The most profound effect
- was a heavy caffeine-like stimulation, complete with stomach cramps. There
- was a period where it seemed a little difficult to concentrate, much like if
- you drink a too much coffee for a long period of time and exhaust your body's
- supply of L-phenyalanine. There also was some slight dizziness. We got an
- awful case of cotton mouth and appeared to become dehydrated. This dried out
- my contact lenses and created 'mild perceptual changes'. For awhile I thought
- I might be experiencing 'warm spinal shivers' but I think it was more like a
- bad case of caffeine shakes. As far as other effects, such as the
- aphrodisiac qualities, none was noted.
-
- One effect which might be usefull to some people (although I don't know why)
- was that after taking Yohimbe the first time and feeling disappointed with our
- experience, we attempted to catch an alcohol buzz but couldn't. Either we
- were overstimulated and the alcohol would not depress the CNS or the euphoric
- effects of alcohol were somehow blocked.
-
- All in all, I would recommend saving your money. The effects we experienced
- from Yohimbe was approximately the same as consuming large amounts of coffee.
