I was taking large doses of phenibut daily for over a year. It was a son of a bitch even with the help of benzo's but I got off of it and haven't touched it in roughly two months until this morning.
I took about 3 grams just to see if it would still have an effect on me. Now I am feeling stupid and worried that it might throw me back into a bit of withdrawal.
Do you think 2 months is long enough that I don't have to worry about that?
I guess time will tell, but I would like to hear the experience of others.
 
In my experience, after my first withdrawal from pheni, I waited a month to use. I used for two days(used one day, waited 2, and used again) at 3 grams each day,and it threw me right back into withdrawal. Maybe two months will make a difference. What I can tell you is that the 2 days following the first day of the 2 day "binge", that all I really experienced was maybe some rebound anxiety. It wasn't until about 36 hours after the second dosing day that I was in for a few days of withdrawal. It would be wise of you to not touch another dose for a while, the longer you go without touching it the better.

We all know how unpredictable of a drug phenibut is as far as tolerance and dependence. But after just one 3 gram dose, I think you should be in the clear. It' will be a. Different story if You take another dose within the next couple of weeks . Then you'd really be in for some trouble. But, everybody is different. I hope the best for you.
 
Just an update: I did feel mild withdrawal late that night and the following evening. Nothing more than clamminess, a feeling of impending doom and a bit of shakiness but that could have actually been mild alcohol withdrawal because I just recently finished a taper.

Well that might explain it, if you've been drinking you've been hitting your Gaba-b receptors which is the same part of your brain that phenibut gets with.

I took phenibut daily for 6months or so and then got off with the help of gabapentin. Didn't use phenibut and didn't drink any alcohol for a couple of months, and when I used it again, I didn't notice a withdrawal. And usually it starts with not being able to sleep with me even when very stoned. In your case, you might have been keeping your tolerance in a way by drinking alcohol.

But I also could tell it wasn't the same. It still gave me the mood boost just not nearly as strong, taking more would just make me extremely dizzy/tired. I can sleep through just about anything after taking enough phenibut, I've slept through 10+ alarms going off.
