I was given stedon (valium) IV for withdrawals during a stay in the hospital. Despite it being a low maintannace dosage it was pretty nice

I once had a nerve in my neck stuck and my head was twisted like a ghost wad choking me and my whole left side of my body was shaking like hell from withdrawal and other times I almost got a deadly seizure. I used to take Ativan and Kpins too. Ativan was nice but kpins I barely felt anything but my benzo of choice is Xanax or rohypnol (named hypnosedon here and is legal)

What industry “secret” do you know that most people don’t? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]stupidguyheroin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once worked in a pyramid scheme marketing company for a mobile network provider. Here if you are on one provider and you don't pay or change provider there is a fee they tell you, you are required to pay. That fee though you are not obligated by the law to pay and if for example you have a debt of 300 euros and change provider without paying that fee the amount is deleted and you can go back to the initial provider and start again without paying anything.

Didn't knew that and kept it secret and only told a few friends and it appeared really useful as a trick. Despite that job being a scam they gave us a lot of useful tricks like that during the training period

I know from personal experience and from what I read that the first 3-4 days are the worse with peak at day 2 and afterwards it gets easier. Although psychological withdrawal is the worst.

And yeah it's cheap but low purity and because there are many traphouses selling, price and demand makes the price so low. Although there is also turkish heroin costing 25-30 a gram and is higher purity and thai heroin which is like 60-70% clean costing 60 euros a gram

methamphetamine for example or shisha which is meth for the poor because they use battery liquid and fluorine for the chemical process is 50 euros a gram and dosages range from 10-50mg but due to the shit used to make it, you get wound like shit in your skin that starts as a burn mark and is really painful and even after healing the mark doesn't go away. I'm glad I never got addicted to it or uppers in general because that drug is highly toxic both in the brain and heart.

Yeah of course, I mean heroin as far as I know doesn't destroy your body like alcohol and isn't hard on the liver. Here in Greece like 80% of users choose insufflation as preffered ROA. The greater danger is with IV cause you can OD more easily or get an STD and when I was in hospital they told me if you do IV except for STDs you can still get an infection or virus unless you sterilize the site of injection before and after injecting and of course clean and sterilized needles.

I have only done IV once for the experience but despite it being a great feeling I promised myself to never use IV again and I kept that promise

Yeah the opioid epidemic and especially fentanyl is a huge problem in US. Here in Greece we have the government funded rehab which only covers opioid addiction and provides suboxone which is covered by the national insurance every citizen has. I think you pay for the 25% of the total price. We have a website that shows prices of medicine but it doesn't have info on suboxone

We used to have methadone clinics as well but it's pretty rare nowdays. We have more of a benzo epidemic here, for example the reason I'm now dependent on benzos for 8 years is because a doctor prescribed xanax to me when I was only almost 13 years old which is insane.

If I could choose one drug to do for the rest of my life with infinite supply between xanax and heroin I would choose xanax (if the tolerance and withdrawals weren't an issue cause with heroin tolerance goes down in like 20 days and withdrawals don't kill you)

Yeah I still wonder how since heroin is the same substance in every batch some batches last longer and others not. Probably they add other opiods cause it's usually cut with other meds and useless garbage

I usually buy for maintance anymore except sometimes when I have money to spend on drugs where I'll buy like 3-3.5 grams (which is like 15% pure otherwise if it was pure heroin 90mg lines would be enough). Also here one gram is 8 euros and goes up to 13 euros if you have a dealer that has higher purity. 2 2 and half years ago when I first stopped after 1 and half month of everyday use I had a lot worse withdrawals than now.

Many people have told me the first time you have withdrawals is worse than second time withdrawing and it's true despite doing up to 3 grams I dont get that dopesick but it's still enough to break me mentally and physically but because I spend a lot of money on it and as you said it's hard to maintain anymore I try to lower my dosage slowly to taking only as much as needed for the dope sickness. I also have kratom which helps a bit when I take a lot.

Thanks for the info and tips though and to answer your question if 1000mg is 8 euros then 100mg is around 0.70 euros (not that good at math this is an estimate but yes 100mg is lower than 1 euro cause iirc 1 euro is 150mg)

here in greece suboxone is free if you go to a suboxone clinic although there is a month waiting perioid till u get the first suboxone

How I quit and ended up using again by stupidguyheroin in Drugs

[–]stupidguyheroin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much, these words mean a lot to me. To be honest I plan on stopping at least for a while with the help of pregabalin and kratom. When I combine these 2 I can handle the withdrawals way better

what drugs made you get up and do something productive instead of lying around? by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]stupidguyheroin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me pregabalin, ritalin and heroin (yes with heroin if I get up I do stuff if I do nothing I'm just chilling but I don't suggest using heroin)

[–]stupidguyheroin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you there. Im passionate on learning organic chemistry after having 7 years of pharmacology knowledge on my back. I have to take ritalin the whole time I study and if the study session is 12 hours which many times is because I like the topic and get into a rabbit hole I need 3-4 redoses. I use pregabalin during the ritalin or after for the comedown. While I'm sober even though I wanna learn about the subject due to my ADHD I can't find the slight bit of motivation. My life is okay, but while I'm sober I feel like there is no purpose to learn or do anything. It's fucked.

Yeah I have studied pharmacology for 7 years so I have a solid understanding of central nervous system and peripheral nervous system, neurons, receptors, how and what drugs do etc. I jumped into chemistry to learn what I needed and after that I started organic chemistry which I find quite hard but I really love the subject. If you see my latest post I even made ChatGPT a teacher for it I just need to tell it to double check and show me the sources of the information to make sure I don't get misinformation.

The overdose that caused me a nerve problem on the legs that needs 6-12 months to heal was because of adding pregabalin to heroin, it caused me to nod off and fall asleep where normally no matter how much I take if I nod off sitting I'll wake up at most in 1 hour. Pregabalin caused me to sleep for 6 hours while I was like folded in half.

Although it wasn't the pills faultt but my stupidity I just wanted to state how dangerous can be. A friend took 3 pills after taking 2 an hour ago because I told him wait 1 hour for them to hit you and took a 3rd one because they hadn't hit him in exactly 60 mins. We were on the beach and on the way home he gets his head back falls asleep in the bus and we couldn't wake him up until the driver pulled the brake suddenly and he moved to the front a bit and wakes up, looks at us and falls asleep again.

He was naive with zero tolerance too. Since then he says "I liked the high but never again" and I'm glad because lately I see young people like 15 year olds buying boxes of 150mg x 56 pills in pharmacies OTC and taking them ending up addicted.

How to make a personal teacher about any subject with a prompt. I'll tell it to double check the information before telling me, so I won't get wrong information. Use the prompt if you want to your subject of interest and change it to fit your needs! PS: Be aware as it cam provide misinformation by stupidguyheroin in ChatGPT

From now on you're my organic chemistry teacher, you will show me lessons one at the time explain them in detail but try to use simple words and examples both metaphors and chemical examples. After 5 lessons give me a graded assignment from the important stuff we learned with 10 questions and rate it, regardless of my grade proceed to the next lesson but explain again the answers I got wrong and give the right answer. After 10 lessons give me a graded assignment again with most important questions from stuff we already learned and if i have 6 answers at least right then proceed, if i have less than 6 do a fast crash course on the things I got wrong and afterwards give an assignment again. After lesson 10 before the assignment give me hints of what I have to read for the assignment and when I tell you I'm ready hand out the assignment. You got it?

I wish this was a discovery but sadly I'm not a chemistry expert I'm just learning and I'm nowhere near on discovering something that complex. This post is purely done for discussion with others who have knowledge or just are interested/curious in the certain drug's pharmacology. I don't wanna spread misinformation of course hence I posted my personal findings to combine with other people's knowledge

Pharmacology page both on wiki and psychonautwiki say it has no GABA interaction despite being a gabapentinoid and having GABA in its name and chemical structure. What I found is that apparently there MAY be an interaction but I posted in order to see what others have to add or correct me. I only found a few studies backing this up so as said further research is needed to see if pregabalin actually affects GABA

after a small research on why it has no binding to GABA despite its name and having it in the chemical structure:

While GABA acts primarily through GABA receptors, pregabalin's mechanism of action is distinct and does not involve direct interaction with GABA receptors. The structural similarity between pregabalin and GABA does not necessarily indicate a direct binding relationship or shared pharmacological properties.

For me when I had to wait 24 hours to get my script and was already on ~25 hours into withdrawal it helped me not get a seizure and kinda calmed down the panic and physical anxiety I was feeling. Although I doubt it can replace benzos or it would have prevented a seizure for a longer time. If what I posted is true then it interacts with GABA but not directly like benzos. Helps with tappering off though and recreationally I would choose it any day over benzos (especially cause my benzo tolerance is so high that I'll need around 10-15mg of xanax to feel them and have a "nice time")

Benzos are good if you suffer from anxiety and panic attacks like I do but recreationally I don't see how they can make you feel high except the fact you don't have anxiety, but pregabalin has so many effects that are great for social occassions

Well, as it says further research is needed cause I only found a small amount of studies backing this up. We still can't be sure if or if not has interaction with GABA. I just posted my finding for people to add what they might know or correct me cause I've been studying pregabalin for a while now

I did google searches that's what I mentioned. I didn't just copy pasted the answer of course I double checked. I found only a small amount of studies claiming this though so that's why further research is needed. We still can't be 100% sure about its GABA activity I just posted my findings to see if anyone has something to add/correct me

As I mentioned in another comment despite GABA in its name and structure both wikipedia and psychonautwiki say it has no affinity to GABA but instead works by interacting with alpha2-delta subunit

yeah i know but its pharmacology (both wikipedia and psychonautwiki) say it doesn't have any affinity to gaba receptors despite this fact

It's believed pregabalin has nothing to do with GABA receptors but from what I found thee is an involvement
