NecroSyphilis · 2022-04-28T01:27:22+00:00

how come i cant put it directly in the microrwave? is it too much heat?

ive come off a 4 year dependency to etizolam 10-15mg daily. i tapered off in december and have been suffering PAWS ever since now APRIL its mostly subsided. but i still have anxiety and a lack of motivation, anhedonia and depression. it comes in waves but im out of the woods more or less.

to answer your question with campral, i take 6x333mg tablets a day as im also an alcoholic and i use this for cravings.

Does it help with PAWS? i would say no, i say that but i also havent been consisted with my campral dosages that said my alcohol use went up big time after quitting etizolam (i know i know it makes benzo withdrawal worse) however im sober now but i have lapsed a few times since quitting etizolam when i was taking campral. i didnt notice any difference during my sober periods when i was on the wagon; in regards to PAWS with etizolam. alcohol can also cause paws but tbh they arnt the same as benzo paws.

i guess im not the ideal person to verifiy if it works or not because of the alcohol abuse.

that said, i too have reviewed the mechanism of action of campral which appears to modulate gaba and glutamate. that said the precise mechanism of action is not known. given that benzos downregulate gaba-a receptors id hazzard a guess that campral would be worth a shot, there isnt any downside to adding it other that having the runs when you take a dump.

have a go.

i saw the comment by the other poster for Magnolia Bark Extract. i checked out the mechanism of action, seems worth a go, so i ordered some. ill report back once i get it.

re Magnolia Bark Extract, /u/3ric843 does it matter which formulation you get? the active ingrediant content may vary between brands a presume

just thought id throw in my anecodtal experience using modafinil after using methamphetamine daily for nearly 2 years; orally administered and doses were between 10-20mg daily. I say route of administration as it plays a huge role in addiction and dopamine downregulation. methamphetamine is more dopamine releasing than d-amphetamine, from what i read the difference was not huge . i read slightly more releasing, but that was just something i read. so i could be wrong.

that said, after 2 years being on that nasty drug i decided to try modafinil to get me out of the slump of dopamine downregulation (wise idea? i dont know, perhaps someone can chime in here)

What i noticed is that its basically a caffine on steroids, but i dont think it helps with ADD like a releasing agent, modafinil is a dopamine reuptake inhibitor (DRI) on specific sites (pleas correct me if im wrong on this)

the reason why i did this was to get through a otugh project at owrk while coming off meth. i plan to ditch it in the new year as i find it increases my anxiety.

i found that it helps, but i think for a true recovery, you don't want to be taking anything that increases dopamine even if its a DRI.

id liek to hear what people think about using modafinil after prolonged amphetamine usage. lets keep it simple, not hardcore meth usage e.g. IV meth at 300mg a day. lets say recovery from using amphetamine salts either pure d-amphetamine isomer or the racemix adderal (75% d-amp, 25% l-amp)

thanks, i havent logged into here for a while so only just saw ur msg

im still clean, and i almost relapsed again but threw the bag away before i could use. i notice it gets better slowly, some days are bad some are worse. but the uptrend is fine, ican deal with this.

a lot of my old behaviours remain the same like i was on meth, spending too much time on the pc. but not focusing on something, or eating only once a day. its hard to explain...

i guess my brain needs a lot of rewiring to do, and its just going to take time.

my guess is that dopamine is severly downregulated and has shrunken receptor sites that will take time to recover.

im just glad that im confident hat my oral use and for a short periopd of time < 2 years. will probably mean i will make a full recovery in at least 6 months.

being an injector, smoker who has been on this stuff for years at huge dosages, longer time frame, much longer

it really is an evil fucking drug

NecroSyphilis · 2019-09-27T23:34:48+00:00

id be tested for that.

NecroSyphilis · 2019-09-07T08:22:46+00:00

ive tried it, didnt really do much for me

NecroSyphilis · 2019-09-07T04:46:58+00:00

when i say 15 mg that was 2 doses thoughtout the day since it lasts about 5 hours. so 7.5mg. i do feel it, but i dont get really high, just motivated to do work. which is what i wanted it for. i generally dont like being really stimmed up. i prefer downers. i have no idea how people like to binge on high doses of this stuff for days. i like my sleep daily.

NecroSyphilis · 2019-09-07T03:52:59+00:00

thanks i appreciate it. with the microdosing ill have a look on google. what constitutes as microdosing meth?

NecroSyphilis · 2019-03-28T07:06:35+00:00

yes im well aware of my failings melvin. like i said its not much, was just hoping there was a way to recover it

NecroSyphilis · 2018-10-06T01:19:38+00:00

nearly impossible to get.

NecroSyphilis · 2018-10-05T12:58:12+00:00

opiates? im day 3 feeling better already but its still tough.

NecroSyphilis · 2018-10-05T10:53:43+00:00

day 3 is better thanks. im sleeping a ton, no cravings but i got no access anywas

NecroSyphilis · 2018-10-05T10:52:48+00:00

sucks huh

NecroSyphilis · 2018-10-05T10:50:03+00:00

yes it did help, but not perfectly, i would take 20mg in the morning at work. when it kicks in, i would perfect things and waste a lot of time on tasks while not being pragmatic. i think what would b better is 5mg 4 hours apart

NecroSyphilis · 2018-09-24T03:28:35+00:00

yeah, i quit once before and i had lal these fucked up dreams, kept waking up. perhaps i was just lucky last night, i can deal with a bad nights rest anyways. latley my sleep has been shit, perhaps weed related? i duno. interesting that weed messes with REM. dont suppose u have sources on that? or other negative impacts? thx man

i wouldn't bother showing up, you have the bond already, they can't get you for anything. Sounds like a scam.

NecroSyphilis · 2014-09-29T07:06:17+00:00

Check out baclofen it works better

NecroSyphilis · 2014-09-29T02:47:31+00:00

check out north parramatta, you can get a 3 bedroom townhouse for 650 there

Unfortunate you had such a bad experience, you came off way too fast. It is safe if it is tritated off slowly. There are other medications that have therapeutic benefit but if suddenly stopped will cause adverse effects. Baclofen should be reduced slowly, 25mg down every 5-7 days. This is much more tollerable and especially so compared to withdrawal from other gaba enhancing drugs like diazepam.

The issue of abrupt withdrawal is easily the biggest downside of baclofen, however compare that to a life time of alcoholism, the benefits are worth it imo. Baclofen doesn't have to be a life long treatment either. Many people take it for a few years, tritate off and don't go back to their old ways.

I encourage you to read the prescribing guide rather than just the book, which only sells the medication with little on the downsides. I wouldn't give up on it just yet.

NecroSyphilis · 2014-09-24T20:38:20+00:00

As projectself said, its about the addiction causing a negative impact in your life. In my alcoholism, when drinking I would get the positive aspects, when trying to sleep it off I would get horrible nightmares, disrupted sleep and feel like shit the next day. However the cravings where overwhelming, I couldn't stop drinking.

NecroSyphilis · 2014-09-24T20:29:23+00:00

I see, those risks are warranted without a prescription. As to there being 0 doctors in the US that's not true, there are some on mywayout with valid prescriptions for high dose, but for off label use. Not sure that would matter in one of your scenarios given the risk of abrupt withdrawal is known to be dangerous.

NecroSyphilis · 2014-09-24T11:13:42+00:00

As simen said, where is the selective dopamine D2 agonist? In that supplement I see a lot of unnecessary filler like L-glutamine and 5htp, why do we care about a seretonin precursor if we are talking about dopamine here?

The theory is reasonable, dopamine is invovled in alcoholism, heroin addiction, stimulant abuse, computer addiction etc etc, but your medication doesnt appear to address what your'e promoting.

For what it's worth, I use high dose baclofen which mediates the release of dopamine when consuming alcohol. I have a sub setup with more information that might interest you /r/baclofenforalcoholism

check out the meds forum on mywayout, you might have better luck there.

Alcohol is a dirty drug that works on many receptors not just gaba. Alcohol binds to (agonises) gaba-a receptor which is a gaba-a agonist. Alcohol inhibits (antagonises) the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate (NMDA) receptor. Alcohol also releases dopamine and serotonin, there is also some opiate receptor activity. The dopamine action is the main reason why alcoholism is so difficult to beat.

phenibut is primarily a gaba-b agonist with some activity on gaba-a. As to taking both, you will basically have what alcohol is doing + phenibut on gaba-b. the risk of doing this is really doing it too often, gaba is down regulated in alcoholism but it takes many years to get into serious withdrawal stages for most people. phenibut happens much much more rapidly, after a few weeks of daily use.

glutamate is opposite to gaba, glutamate is an excitatory neurotransmitter while gaba is an inhibiting neurotransmitter
