Can anyone speculate as to why Pregabalin might not be working for me as a Kratom WD aid? (Phenibut does not do much for me either, doses upto a gram or more). Tried 300mg on 2 occasions when in WD and felt very little relief and maybe some discomfort or poor sleep effects. Even combined with Kava and diazepam sublingual in small doses, didn't feel much due to tiny doses out of caution over the mix. Thought I might get a sweet potent synergy...
I will try 450mg or more soon and report back as I have now acquired some more.
I do wonder, as mentioned in my detox thread earlier, if my GABA system is just broken or abnormal - the effects people report about sociability with these drugs couldn't be further from what I experience. I start to feel like I've taken my first dose of an SSRI or a bad pill, get very uncomfortable, dilated pupils, don't want to be near others in case they see my discomfort or eyes... Also never felt relief from Kratom WD with phenibut or the synergy that is supposed to be so great.
FYI - I have a kind of chronic SAD and GAD that might be from a benzo WD syndrome. Probably related, but how?
Last point perhaps of interest is - even benzos don't deal with the SAD. If I dosed high enough I would just fall asleep but still feel the chronic anxiety effects underneath. Just tend to be able to care less due to being fucked up. I know that's more a mental health theme, but the key point is benzos are not really anxiolotic for me anymore and perhaps that is a clue also.
