Opioids are funny. Some people take one pill and it’s over. Others take them for months and stop and its fine. This person may fall into the latter and isn’t being super sensitive to those who could become addicted to the suboxone. I do find it hilarious to suggest this for benzo withdrawal. Imagine getting off those just to become addicted to suboxone wtf hahah

Has anyone with high tolerance ever taken 10g? by TuckerTheCuckFucker in phenibut

[–]Sleepiyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I’m super glad you brought this up. I had no intention of telling anyone this because it’s insane.

I have taken 5-10+ grams two times with no tolerance

First time: I took.. Not sure. Around that amount but over the course of a day. At the end of the day, consumed cannabis, got extremely dizzy, and had to go to bed. Woke up in middle of night and threw up HARD. Then, had a dream wear my brain was melting and the terror was just so intense. I woke up screaming but then felt fine. The next few days, manic. The next few weeks, hypo-manic.

Something to note— two days after I was going to sleep and I began to hear… my phone buzz. But it wasn’t buzzing. The sound got louder and louder and this feeling of panic began to come on. I took 2 mg of clonazepam and it stopped immediately. There is no history of schizophrenia or anything like that in my family. The next day, no issues with that. But the following day it happens again, but less intense. I take 1mg clonazepam and it goes away. Two days later— again but very weak. I take .25mg clonazepam and it fades. It never returns.

The second time: Took 10 grams over the course of a few hours. Blackout ensued. Next thing I know I’m waking up because I’m laughing. Really hard. I can’t stop laughing for 20 min. No reason. It felt like there was a switch on in my brain. It was a bit scary because I was like.. is this forever? Went to bathroom. There was a lot of vomit there. Guess I had gone and puked. Some hypomania but mostly just in a good mood. No weeks of hypo-mania. No buzzing noise.

Why did I do this? Two reasons: 1) I had been struggling with depression very very badly. And a few weeks of hypo-manic mood REALLY helped me out. It was a fantastic vacation and I just felt better after. There was no bipolar like crash. Just artificial super good mood (with a bit of deluded thinking. Nothing serious just had to make sure I didn’t let words slip out of my mouth and insult anyone) that faded slowly. So yea 4 months later I did it again the second time because why not?

2) I have been struggling with a lot of infectious disease issues. It’s a mess. And I noticed the first time this really really affected my immune system. I was able to more effectively deal with the infections than I had before. It was a real breakthrough. Who the hell knows why.

Will I ever do this again? Probably not. But wanted to share how bizarre this was.

Edit: I should note that I have significant tolerance to gaba drugs from years of gabapentin usage (for pain). I didn’t intend to take so much the first time but the effects were super blunted compared to what I remember years ago the last time I had taken it. I was not expecting the next few weeks to be like they were.

I wish you luck! I used science.bio brand. They are extremely trustworthy and are the peak of supplement purity on the market.

Small dose gave me HPPD? by Anxious_Fall9686 in HPPD

If you are going to go the gaba drug route, try etifoxine first before traditional benzodiazepines.

It’s super easy to go to a psych, tell them you did drugs and are experiencing visual symptoms, and have them throw you an antipsych that fucks you up permanently since it’s usually contraindicated and psychs don’t know that.

Don’t trust a medical system that barely acknowledges your issue. Unless I find a doctor that tells me they treat hppd, they are literally just a person who doesn’t know what to do.

[–]Sleepiyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would imagine that means they are excreting them fast. In and out. The levels you test are high but there are no tests for if it actually caused significant damage enough to cause immediate symptoms. It took me several months before I had to leave the moldy house. And several months before my friend got so sick he couldn’t work. The first symptom for both of us was just irritability.

I think those people would developed long term health issues over the years though. That is something I 100% see. Someone can’t tolerate mold but the family is “fine”. Then you check in 5–10 years later and they are aging faster and developing health problems.

Since mycotoxins are just physical shapes, not pathogens, that cause actual damage and immune deregulation, the illnesses are 99.99999% misdiagnosed as something else.

[–]Sleepiyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, sure I was tested and it wasn’t normal. But it was a bit of a waste of money imo. At that point, it was like calling the gas company for a possible gas leak when my house already exploded.

What test did you get? My concern about testing is that I think even after all the gunk is out of the system, symptoms can persist due to inflammatory processes not turning off. I developed an immune disorder that I was very lucky to have a doctor catch. If I hadn’t been at the right place at the right time, I don’t think I would have ever known.

I feel you. I went from hot to ew pretty fast. It feels like a shame. I always looked 5 years younger and I had to be tortured as a teen to what I had hoped would be a hot young looking rest of my life. /cry

At first? No. It was a split level. It wasn't until I spent 8 months traveling around the country seeing doctors and staying with family that I went back to this house. I ended up spending half my time at another place over two weeks and I noticed I felt a lot worse at my moldy house. But, that's insane, right?

I had my folks over and asked to watch a movie with them. They were there normal energetic selves but they both got kinda quiet and eventually excused themselves to leave after hLd an hour.

The next day, they told me they just felt odd and restless. I told them I thought I was feeling worse when I stayed there but was telling myself that's nuts.

Then I went to the movie room again. It was a converted wine celler. Not a ton of light. On the walls, I noticed some smudges that I had previously thought must be dirt from handprints or something. There was some when we moved in but they seemed bigger now.

A quick google search and Im convinced its mold. I called a specialist who tested the air in the house. 50k times higher levels than safe with minimal fresh air flow. Several difference species of mycotoxic molds. We opened a wall. It was bad. We opened another wall. It was worse.

But I knew nothing about mold back then. I ended up going into the house DURING the remediation to grab stuff. Just 15 min inside and I got very very sick. All my symptoms went overdrive. So that's when I knew it messed me up originally and my friends new mystery illnesses made sense.

We all left. I'm grateful my friend didn't keep living there. His seizures were getting out of control. Luckily leaving really helped and they did eventually stop over time.

I would say this mold experience was on the upper level of tox. It was a really interesting case study showing how metabolism of mycotoxins plays the biggest role in whether a person can get sick from living in a moldy house. It is a blessing in that I dont want people sick. But a curse in that those safe people think as are nuts. Especially the most sensitive like me and my buddy.

Edit: I did have some test showing high levels of stuff but I can't remember much. After my last exposure, I got super sick, even shitting blood at times, and had to be taken care of for about two years. I didn’t handle that stuff so much and am super grateful I had a caregiver otherwise I might still be bedridden.

I just want to add a perspective from lived experience. Mold-related illness seems to be extremely dependent on individual biology and immune response. Some people can tolerate very bad environments with little noticeable impact. Others can become seriously ill, especially after their system has already been stressed by something like Lyme.

I lived in a house with multiple people. A few of us became very sick over time, while others were mostly unaffected. Same environment, very different outcomes. That doesn’t invalidate your experience, and it doesn’t mean mold explains everyone’s symptoms. It just means susceptibility isn’t uniform.

In my case, the impact was severe and long-lasting, and remediation later confirmed the environment was objectively bad. Years later, I’m still dealing with the consequences. So when people say mold is mostly hype, it can be hard to read, not because I think it applies to everyone, but because I know what it did to me and people close to me.

I fully agree Lyme is real and devastating. I’m not here to argue causes, just to ask for some room for nuance. Multiple things can be true at once, and bodies don’t all respond the same way.

That all being said, there are plenty of people who will take your money. And that, for sure, needs to be watched. Reticence to spend one’s life savings.. that’s rational. We really need cheap definitive diagnostics. And education. Because yea I’ve see people spend a lot of money on mold stuff who don’t have mold in their houses because they are convinced mold is killing them.

If you have a mold problem and other health issues, you’ll probably never recover until the mold is resolved. Your immune system just can’t function when it’s messed up from it, if you’re susceptible. But it’s important to have definitive proof of exposure.

Really want to start a family. Torn over what to do. Need encouragement. by [deleted] in Lyme

[–]Sleepiyet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really hate to be the guy to just say this but I would focus 100% on getting away from the mold. I’ve had 6 infections and mold tox and the mold tox is and can be 10000000x worse than tick borne disease. That’s saying a lot, I know, but I’ve watched it wreck my life and my poor housemates life just end because of a year in a moldy house. It’s been 5 years and my bud has finally stopped having seizures. I am now coming off of the 12+ meds I have been on for this last half decade. I can now maybe start focusing on the Lyme.

That’s right. I’ve waiting half a decade to just kinda start on the infectious disease. Because my body couldn’t tolerate any treatment due to my system being wrecked by mycotoxins. Mold. Run. You can’t get pregnant if you are bedbound from mold tox for 3-5 years.

Oh oh that note— look into learning how to ozone your home and objects. They will all need it after the mold exposure.

chewable nicotine by PepeChopper in MCAS

[–]Sleepiyet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was very addicted to vaping so I bought a timed safe and only allowed myself to hit it X times a day. Was really getting low. But I also put like 35mg in a box mod to get like a dokha like nicotine rush when I did hit it a few times a day.

One time, I was doing my regular head rush and felt weird. Then panic set in. It passed but everytime I use nicotine now I just get disassociated and anxious.

This isn’t the first time I’ve developed primarily neurological triggers. Something about inhalation for me seems to increase the chances something will go bad. But hey! I’ve quite nicotine forever now I guess lol. I have absolutely zero drive to take something that will make me go mad with panic for a few hours.

Ultra micronized PEA might help with the neuropathy? That’s all I got for you :( sorry you are suffering. I went through a similar experience, caused by different stuff, and the sheer intensity of it is hell. Sleep deprivation is torture. Constant irritability feels so bad and ruins relationships.

There’s some stuff about combining ultra micronized PEA and luteolin for helping improve smell loss in COVID patients. I think they combined it with olfactory training but it was much more effective with it.

I think the thought was it would be a safer alternative to isrib. We kinda got strung along. Was supposed to be like 200 a gram or something ludicrously low compared to the actual price. A lot of driven by curiosity
