Benzos Yet Another Phenibut Thread

Hello all,

I have been struggling with Phenibut since March of this year. I order from an online vendor in a different country and the shipping is unreliable so I was consistently running out and going through hellish withdrawals.

My last shipment was supposed to arrive Friday, but it took 12 hours to clear customs. Monday was a stat holiday here in Canada, so UPS would not deliver until Tuesday.

Well, by the time Tuesday rolled around, I had been in withdrawal from a 4,200 mg daily habit for 4 days. I got home from work at 21:30, found my package on the counter and summarily discarded it.

Today is day 5. I have been using klonipin when needed. The anxiety seems to be getting better but the depression/anhedonia are still frigging me up. Phenibut can be a wonderful compound when used correctly--I just am unable to use these compounds correctly and so I am getting out. I hope I didn't screw anything up permanently.

Wish me luck!

Thanks friends
 
A little of both I suppose. I was up to 25 300 mg tablets a day at one point.. quick math.. 7.5 grams. I withdrawled for 4 days in which I jusssst barely stayed out of the hospital (no benzos or other comfort meds) and then when my next shipment arrived began to take 12-14 tablets a day to stay normal with the intention of tapering further. This time around though, I received this next shipment after 4 days of withdrawal (using benzos this time) and said fuck it. I can't be a slave to this stuff anymore and I cannot effectively control my usage.

I just want my life back at this point!

Today is day 5 without and I am hoping it doesn't last too much longer :(
 
After day 5 the worst is over. The horrid withdrawals is what keeps me from using Phenibut. Even if I use it one time, the next day I feel horrible.
 
Thanks man. I just have this nagging feeling that this is never going to end.. I'm a bit scared to be honest! Oh well, I got myself into this mess and I will dig myself out. I appreciate your replies.

I felt the exact same way. No matter what people told me I felt like i was never gonna get better because of my constant abuse. I know it sucks and It's hard as hell but all you can do is wait. I was close to saying fuck it and keep using Phenibut at one point but then I just remind myself that ive been thru hellish withdrawals and if I used it again, all the effort would be wasted....
 
If you can get gabapentin I'd use it. It got me off a nasty phenibut habit of about 3400 mg per day without wds. I couldn't believe it.
 
Thanks guys! Day 6 today and I still feel absolutely terrible. I really hope this lets up soon :(

youee almost there dude!!! Day 10 is the most common recovery time period for phenibut. How is your sleep? Are you taking anything else or full cold turkey?
