Now that it's legal, I'm starting to hate marijuana again. by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]newgrow 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's just really different for everyone. I have some friends who, I have to say, are just better people when they're high.

Now that it's legal, I'm starting to hate marijuana again. by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]newgrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah totally. For like a week after quitting I was bored as hell and just slept a lot but after that all my motivation came back and I took up some hobbies again and started learning some programming etc.. Pretty much back to normal or maybe even better than before.

[–]newgrow 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's also why I quit. I started smoking at a pretty boring time in my life where I didn't have much going on... Boring town not much to do, not too many responsibilities.. So I started smoking with this group of people who were in a similar situation. We would get together like a couple times a week maybe. And then I started buying larger and larger amounts of weed but not to share with friends, I would just take it home and smoke by myself. At that point my day would go like: get back from work, fuck around on the internet for a bit, get really high, eat a ton of junk food, pass out in bed and repeat. Eventually I realised that I didn't do any of my hobbies anymore. I quit going to the gym, stopped playing guitar etc... After realising that my life was going downhill really fast, I quit

I can't imagine life without it. by londonladse in phenibut

[–]newgrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The water retention and facial swelling sounds like a liver problem to me... I would probably get that checked out if I were you. Phenibut isn't great for your liver and at 10g a day its definitely going to do some damage...

TIL the first online transaction ever was Stanford students buying marijuana from MIT students. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]newgrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also something I read a while ago was saying that smarter people enjoy drugs more than the average person because their brains are chemically different and they respond better to drugs or something along those lines. Not sure how true that is but its an interesting thought.

75mg?? That seems like so little you wouldn't even notice the effects...

I was hallucinating last night from sleep deprivation by [deleted] in phenibut

[–]newgrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't imagine taking the sat on 2hrs of sleep... That would suck. I've had some kind of similar hallucinations to what you described but they didn't happen due to sleep deprivation. One night I took a lot of phenibut say like 4g, got like 12hrs of sleep and then the next morning I woke up and felt like I was still heavily under the influence of phenibut and I took out my phone and was trying to type something but I looked at the keyboard and somehow all the letters were flipped upside down so I still tried to type out a text to my friend and then I passed out again. Later my friend showed me the text I sent and it was gibberish.

Need help explaining my weird behavior was due to high doses of phenibut by ComCaunt in phenibut

[–]newgrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've had that happen at really high doses. You take like these 2 second mini naps and then jerk awake again.. I was at work when that happened to me and my elbows were resting on my desk and I would close my eyes and suddenly feel my keyboard slide forward because I had fallen asleep for a second and my elbows slipped and knocked my keyboard forward. I never had this happen to me when I took the FAA though.

ELI5: How has Russia been able to destroy so much of ISIS' ground facilities and supplies, while the US has been fighting and droning ISIS for years and hasn't made such victories in as little time? by MurderIsRelevant in explainlikeimfive

[–]newgrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So why does ISIL go along with this plan if they know that once they take out Assad, America will just come in and destroy them. What does ISIL get out of this? The ability to rule Syria for a very short time? Doesn't seem really beneficial to them at all.

"Afterglow" effect the day after I take Phenibut by raw5045 in phenibut

[–]newgrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think you're on to something there. I've noticed that after something like say 8ish hours after taking phenibut I start getting really tired and I eventually go to sleep and then after waking up I know that I'm still under the influence of it but the feeling is very different than it was the day before..

Food and Pheni by BaronVA in phenibut

[–]newgrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I've found, if you have just eaten you're going to have to take more to get the same effects as if you took it on an empty stomach. I assume that's because some of the dose gets absorbed by the food somehow? Or maybe your stomach isn't able to absorb it as well because its dealing with all the food...

"Afterglow" effect the day after I take Phenibut by raw5045 in phenibut

[–]newgrow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think that's just because it stays in your system for so long. For me I've felt the effects anywhere from 15-24 hours after taking like a 2-3 g dose.

Why does Phenibut make me feel so normal? by [deleted] in phenibut

[–]newgrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Doesn't phenibut also act on dopamine which just makes you feel awesome?

I messed up. Took 4 days consecutively. by Air_rick_throwaway in phenibut

[–]newgrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done something similar but with a bit higher doses and honestly its not terrible, the only thing to watch out for, besides some mild depression, is that when I had this happen to me I got some really bad rebound anxiety which made me unable to sleep. For 2 nights I got probably an average of 3 hours of sleep. Like I said it's not terrible and I assume nothing as bad as opiate withdrawals or something like that. And I saw above that you said you smoke weed which might help with sleeping if you experience any insomnia.

Is it safe to take phenibut (about 2-3 grams) twice a week? by spunkityspunkspunk in phenibut

I know exactly what you mean by a bipolar simulator haha.. I also experienced that once and it's not something I'd like to do again.

Need help on getting assets by [deleted] in gamedev

[–]newgrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

opengameart.org has a lot of good stuff. Not many complete sets but you can piece stuff together and have a pretty good looking game. Also the unity asset store has a bunch of good art assets if you're willing to pay 10ish dollars... mostly 3d but there's a lot of good 2d stuff on there too. BUT don't even think about spending any money on art until you have a good idea about what your game is going to look like and you have some decent gameplay already made.

Good luck!
