Hello all this is my first post
I have been taking phenibut every day for the past four weeks in doses ranging from 2-6g. I also take daily pregabalin 600mg, propranolol 160mg and trazodone 150mg for generalised anxiety disorder and depression, all of which I continued taking at those doses throughout my phenibut use.
Phenibut is a miracle drug for anxiety, depression, energy, socialising and confidence. I wish so badly that tolerance wouldn't go up the way it does, and as quickly as it does. And I've read some absolutely horrendous things about withdrawal.
I've just quit cold-turkey and I'm not really experiencing any sort of withdrawal. It's been 48 hours since my last dose of 2000mg. I have less energy, and I'm less inclined to socialise...but that is just my normal self. The way I was before phenibut. I've still managed to get up today and clean the house. Also my brother visited and I comfortably held a conversation with him. I'm really not feeling any I'll-effects at all.
At the start of the year I was taking phenibut daily for about 5 months. My dose escalated to 7g a day. I eventually decided to start tapering down, cutting my dose by 700mg every few days. It didn't take me very long before I was down to 700mg/day, perhaps 5 weeks or less, and then I just quit completely. I experienced no withdrawal.
I'm aware that it isn't advisable to mix CNS depressants, but mixing pregabalin and phenibut has never been a problem for me and has never knocked me out.
Is the pregabalin preventing any withdrawal? I don't think it is because I was taking it alongside the phenibut anyway and so my brain would have been used to the simultaneous effects of them both. Do some people just not get very addicted to phenibut? I've read people getting horrendous withdrawal from just a week or two of daily use. What's going on??
