No, I'm just not sure that your explanation is correct, and I'm not sure you are either. I do thank you for your theory, and I did ask for theories, but we still don't know.It wouldn't matter if we had doctors or not. This is on the edge of emerging neuroscience and combinatorial reactions to multiple receptor systems because you're not supposed to be taking large doses of benzodiazepines, opioids, herbal opioids like kratom in an uncontrolled manner like you are.
I mean you're almost doing investigational experimentation in one of two categories either
PLAY STUPID GAMES, WIN STUPID PRIZES!
or
FUCK AROUND AND FIND OUT!
While it is thin and very very loosely supported, there is evidence that seizures occur when kratom is used by people with gabaergic dysfunction caused by either benzodiazepine abuse or epilepsy.
We're not sure if you have breakthrough seizures that have been hidden by your benzodiazepine used for years.
What we do know is that you used an excessive amount of benzodiazepines, that you have recently lowered your dose extremely. That would instigate gabaergic dysfunction because you're still in a partially with drawn state even with no symptoms.
There is absolute evidence that kratom acts at the benzodiazepine site of the GABA receptor.
So you know you have the evidence, you have the observed effects, but you still want to argue against what you've seen.
I don't use an excessive amount of benzos. I take only 1.0mg of Klonopin per day, 0.5 in the morning and 0.5 at night. You could call it excessive use of GABA drugs, especially the first time with Phenibut. I don't know if you really could the 2nd time with a lot of alcohol and a little bit of Klonopin.
I think we do know that its likely I'm not having "breakthrough seizures hidden by my Klonopin for years" because I actually was taken abruptly (and criminally I might add) off Klonopin cold turkey about 9-10 years back, and I didn't even have side effects which was odd. Certain people on here have also told me that what I experienced was NOT a seizure. I'm hoping they are correct. Wouldn't a seizure mean you were totally unconscious?
I'm not really into the comments about me "playing stupid games" lol. We all know most of us on here have done that, and I would guess you've probably done it with certain drugs yourself. I just wanted to understand more about exactly how bad what I did to myself was and also what drugs I would need to exclude in the future for it to not happen again.
If you still wanted to use SOME of the drugs in this equation, but not all of them, and you didn't want this to happen again, what combo would you use?
Because I don't want to have to quit drinking altogether, or weed, and I'd prefer to be able to use kratom from time to time. I am probably not going to use Phenibut again, or at least I know it's a bad idea. Most of all, I have a very hard time imagining life without EVER being able to drink.
