I'm really not getting a very clear picture elsewhere on this one an I'm sure someone with more learned of even experienced may be able to help.
Reading up on Phenibut, although it mainly bind it primarily binds to the GABA-b receptors at higher doses it also binds to the GABA-a receptors, although there seems to be some dispute in this area.
My motivation for asking is I am currently struggling to taper off of Diazepam, I'm getting there but its a long haul and falling off that long wagon ride would be easy to do.
Does anyone have and experience or advice on whether you can switch to Phenibut and if so what kind of ratio you would need against Diazepam.
I'm primarily concerned about avoiding the very worst of the WD some discomfort and anxiety are not the issue, this is about avoiding seizure and anything else that would make me non-functional or be a danger to my wellbeing. I have suffered from a GAD for many years and I'm currently taking 150mgs of Venlafaxine (Effexor) daily.
Any help or advice greatly appreciated.
