Wow, 1. who tf gave you phenibut before gabapentin/pregabalin? Phenibut is notoriously hard to quit. It takes at least a few weeks of gradual tapering down. 2. Together with a benzodiazepine? Wew, lad. Should've also taken a few shots of vodka before sleep for the insanity trifecta.
Edit: sorry, I always assume other people have access to medication. I don't so I shouldn't have laughed.
Yeah, so there are a few gabapentinoids/gabaergics out there, and they can help a lot.
But please read everything you can before deciding on something.
Just a couple of pages of Phenibut experiences have convinced me to not try it because there are better alternatives with fewer side effects.
- shepardrtc 4y agoI bought it online under the name Somatomax. But you can get it from plenty of other places easily. Actually, a different doctor recommended it to me much earlier. "Just take a break every once in a while," she said. Ok, doc!
- Fargoan 4y agoHe probably gave himself phenibut. It's not a prescription drug. You can just buy it online.

- jotm 4y agoI mean, a lot if not most drugs are addictive - if not physically, then mentally. It's all down to whether it helps you more than it harms you. Hell, I can make the same argument about exercise - is it worth the risk of physical injury, something that most people don't even consider? I'd say yes, the beneficial effects outweigh the negative ones. I've used gabapentinoids (and am using a gabaergic right now) to great positive effects. The downsides are there but they are minor. On that note, I have been using alphaPVP for ADHD management and am happy to report it is nowhere near as scary as the media makes it out to be. A shorter lasting version of methylphenidate, basically, and better than cocaine for the purpose. Gabapentin and pregabalin withdrawal can be scary at first, but once you know the effects and learn to taper off, they're rather harmless. In fact, the biggest danger is in not being able to buy them because the medical system won't allow it, leaving you to quit cold turkey. Second biggest danger is from the police (illegal to possess without a prescription). I have not tried any benzodiazepines or phenibut, but I'd bet they can be managed pretty well.
