Is this a thing? Could anyone with experience tell me if there's a cross-tolerance between gabapentin and b3nz0s (like kplnz)? I've been down the b3nz0 dependence road before and would prefer not to go down it again. I use both gabapentin and kpln sparingly but I'd like to know how they interact...

 
I use both and have not noticed any cross-tolerance issues at all.   I know that gabapentin does not bind to gaba receptors like benzOs do, so it should be fine..  Coming off gabapentin was hell though and I'll never take it daily again.  I stick with twice a week, same with the alps I take..

 
It's hard to say..  To give you an idea, I was taking 400mg, 3 times daily for 4 months.  I did a very long and slow taper and still suffered.  The insomnia and anxiety were the worst.

 
Wow I need to get off the gaba then. Have you had the same experience with lyrica? I am supposed to get it whenever the insurance feels like authorizing it

 
I was on Gab@ for like 6 months 400mg a day only and it was hell coming off of.  Severe anxiety, insomnia and paranoia for months...  It took about 5 months, maybe longer to get back to normal.  I still have 100's left and won't touch them.

 
@sweetmelissa589 that's weird I had a long run with them and the withdrawal was pretty easy compared to anything else maby like 5 days of sweating irritability and restless legs after that was completely over with I guess everyone is differentm

 
@Dickslapperman   True.. I guess everyone is different.  When I used to go to the mth@don3 cliic, I would be so sick and could hardly even get dressed the next day to go get my other d0se.  I thought this was normal.  Then one day as I was waiting in line to d0se, I heard someone say that they forgot to take their  d0se yesterday.   I couldn'e believe it, because the day I took my d0se, I would start to feel bad around 6:00pm. with yawning and goosebumps, skin scrawling and couldn't sleep at all,  so I was amazed to see this girl forgot to even take hers...lol.  Anyway,  I just couldn't handle being sick everyday and switched to subs, which are great because I can d0se as needed.  I hate them though.  I have been on them for 4 years and now I have anhedonia.  I get no pleasure out of anything and am trying to taper off of them.  I have turned to rc b3nz0s to help me taper, but I think I'm making the problem worse, as I'm an @ddicit and now I have 2 @dicitions..    Anyway.. sorry for the long sorry..lol.. 

 
They have ZERO cross Tolerance... they even use G@BAPentin in B3nzodi@zepine Withdrawal due to this fact and same with Baclofen since it only affects G@BA-B and not the G@BA-A Sub Units that B3nz0s affect. I use GABAPentin for sleep with Baclofen everynight because my Daily use of B3nz0s only allows Me to use it once a week at a higher D0se for effects. When I do get effects the next Day I can feel my Tolerance rise so rapidly that I feel less than 50% of the effects the D@y before but the problem is the only way to lower B3nz0 Tolerance is to use less of them D@ily and for a LONG time like I said only once a week I use a higher D0se and it only has a better effect for one single D@y 2 at most and at higher D0ses.

  2. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  3. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  4. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  5. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  8. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  9. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  10. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state

  13. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?

  15. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  16. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  17. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  18. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though

  20. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
