Thanks so much for the info guys :)
I sort of figured as much, though weird how some people claim to be able to take z drugs or halci0n for years and report minimal withdrawals, but kind of sounds too good to be true.
Hi, yes I meant Benzos, sorry for the confusion.
Thanks for the response, I might research Baclofen as an alternative sleep aid, if nothing else helps.
Thanks.. I was thinking of rotating with Phenibut, but it seems phenibut also hits some GABAa receptors too so that doesn't sounds like a good idea.
Baclofen only hits GABAb correct so there is no cross tolerance? Is it good for sleep?
Also have you noticed any tolerance or withdrawal issues...
Hi guys,
First off, thanks to everyone for making this a very helpful and informative and non-judgemental forum.
I have had trouble sleeping since I was young and in the last few years with a huge life change, it has gotten worse.
I have been using bennies 1-2 times a week when I am tossing...
I am in this boat too..
Broke up with my fiance 8 years ago and since then I just seem to value my alone time too much to seek out dating/relationships etc.
I'm also a musician so I spend a lot of time at home working on music, so maybe its for the best.
I'm open to being in a relationship in...
Good luck, and if you need the url, I'll send you but its pretty easy to find with google. There is like one main kava forum on the internet that I know of.
From what I have read on the Kava forum, yes it can and there are several positive stories about that and a whole section of the forum dedicated to it helping with addictions.
Am I allowed to post a url to the kava forum?
It is a great resource to learn about kava. FYI the instant for me...
Definitely agree with that.
As for op!es I have been luck to never enjoy that at ALL! In fact most times, the negatives far outweighed the positives.
Ok hope we didn't hijack this tread too much..
Glad my post was somewhat helpful :)
I also used to be less discriminating about how often I used benzos, and actually have cut down over the three years I have been using them to a small extent.
About being scared, well I think it can be good to be scared of addiction, that way we can keep...
Hi Smoka,
Well, been using this way for three years now, and honestly not much tolerance has built up. I might not notice as strong a sense of relaxation at very low doses, but its enough to help with sleep etc. So nothing much to complain about in that department.
Sometimes I have taken like...
Ugh, doesn't sound fun... I haven't ever taken enough benzos for long enough to experience much withdrawals so never had to taper, and try to keep my use down to once or twice a week. Its been working fine for three years now, hope it remains that way.
Good morning! (running on 3 hours of sleep...
@xenxra:
@WTF7218 it may as well be that way with how little effort some of the people on here make to find information that's exactly where you would expect it to be.
@ontovzik:
When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
@ontovzik:
I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
@WTF7218:
@xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
@xenxra:
he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
N@NYStateofMind:
@Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
@Alkazar:
@NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
N@NYStateofMind:
I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
N@NYStateofMind:
@xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
@xenxra:
@NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
T@Testisthebest:
Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
N@NYStateofMind:
@Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
