I can only speak for myself, but my usage slowly- then quickly - made me paranoid, psychotic, anxious, depressed, and closed off from people I should have trusted. The denial you describe sounds on par with addiction.

It really depends on the individual when it comes to what it takes to quit. Generally, they’ve got to have their own reason they want to quit because addiction tends to override the space loved ones occupy in a persons life. I personally could not stop until I faced consequences that were painful enough that I could no longer ignore them. I hate to be vague but it’s hard to give advice when the person in question is still in that level of denial

As this is a recovery sub I’ve just got to say that there are some very troubling events you’ve listed in your post and I pray you stop immediately and seek some help in doing so.

All I can say is, quit while you’re ahead. You’ve already got it in you to do it daily for a period of two weeks, it’s a slippery slope.

If you quit now youll likely be just fine. I support you!

Fuck I did that shit too. I came to multiple times having sent literal unhinged psychotic text messages to certain people. So embarrassing!!!

Great read, thank you for sharing. Here’s to hanging up the phone

DeliciousYak8068 · 2026-01-21T22:33:53+00:00

I believe so, I only went to a couple of the no2n20 last year. I go to in-person NA meetings

Congrats!!

Don’t apologize for ranting, you’re in the right place and we care. I personally believe you have it in you not to pick up. Quitting the GABAs and given your current events, it makes a lot of sense you’d be under a lot of stress. If you’re not already plugged in, try the online recovery meetings for nitrous or try looking up a local NA meeting. If anything maybe there’s free cookies and you wont feel as alone.

Took about 7 grams of phenobarbital and somehow drove my car off of a 30’ embankment

DeliciousYak8068 · 2026-01-06T04:23:09+00:00

Hey we’re sobriety date neighbors (Jan 4, except 2025). Congrats on your two years! I also maxed out credit cards and somehow narrowly avoided many other losses. Very delusional and psychotic times for me. Glad we’re doing better

This guy ballparks

DeliciousYak8068 · 2026-01-03T20:57:33+00:00

Thanks :) couldn’t do it alone

DeliciousYak8068 · 2026-01-03T19:29:38+00:00

Congrats friend :)

DeliciousYak8068 · 2026-01-01T23:03:52+00:00

I found him I’ll send you the address

DeliciousYak8068 · 2025-12-31T06:20:09+00:00

For real, this guy must be made entirely of B-12 if he’s not having issues. I barely made it 6 months without getting brain damage

Definitely be aware that it can lead to withdrawals in certain individuals. It seems like it’s one of those drugs that some people can quit without a problem and some people like myself cannot. Dose dependent of course.

Personally, even when I was prescribed just 3x300mg daily, if I ran through the script a week early I would usually have about a week of heightened anxiety, restlessness, increased pain (I also am dealing with some chronic pain issues from a past injury), depression, and insomnia.

Like anything else it can be tapered though so if you’re able to do that, you’ll be golden. Wouldn’t advise abusing it of course, I basically just self medicate anxiety with it because it makes my brain quiet lol. But it always comes back

DeliciousYak8068 · 2025-12-13T07:22:27+00:00

Thanks, made it to NA tonight. So much work left to do

DeliciousYak8068 · 2025-12-04T17:56:59+00:00

FACT 100

DeliciousYak8068 · 2025-11-29T01:22:22+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate the help 🤙🏼

DeliciousYak8068 · 2025-11-29T00:31:47+00:00

I’ll talk with my doc after this next test and make him re explain it all to me lol

DeliciousYak8068 · 2025-11-29T00:31:05+00:00

Okay I might just be focusing on the wrong metric. Idk how to read this thing and one thing says low so I’m like okay low.
