Gabapentinoids The Lyrica (Pregabalin) Mega Thread v 2.0

I remember when my drinking was out of control, so I somehow managed to stop altogether, and now not even a drop.
BUT
Several years later, still no booze, but doing more narc than ever before.
I’ve never really been happy unless I’m intoxicated on something to varying levels.
Nothing feels quite right when you’re sober 🤷‍♂️
same here, I need an all consuming obsession or intoxication, otherwise I feel like I'm going crazy
 
Too much lyrica makes you drunk; over 600 mgs and I cant even ride a bike except straight into the pavement. Doc says its like alcohol in a pill. Copious Lyrica and you forget how to talk, words don't come; they feel like they are stuck on the tip of your tongue. But it makes me more social thats for sure. A babbling fool, with poor balance. I try to wait until after balance related activities or I tend to fall over, lol
QFT
 
Maybe this is worth nothing but I gotta say it & this seems the best place.

I got a nice stash of Indian Pregabs yesterday, they are made in India & 450mg, I was so happy when they landed.
The first time I had them I hated the "high" off them & I did 600mg, the 2nd time I did them was because I couldn't get any Heroin & I had read online they took away the withdrawl which they sure did & I began to like them in a weird way.

Yesterday I was so mashed off these Indian 450mg ones, they seem to have a real kick to them but I had done 2 of them so I had 900mg in my system which was a first at that dose for me, I was just mashed to pieces, I had real issues walking & people were stopping to ask me if I was ok, I had an issue speaking & I began to get a weird visual effect like everything I saw was a few seconds "behind" what it usually is, I cannot express what it did in words really as English has no words for it, everything was "behind" is the best way to express it.

That Pregab hunger hit me so hard too, cooking was very dangerous as my legs were still gone & my senses were just broke, I was in a way "disabled"

What I did "learn" later on is after a good few hours pregabalin high when you get to a dose like I did Meditation takes on a whole new league, I remember one time I smoked Black Hash on 600mg pregab & the feeling of the body was I had "melted" & was a bit like Ketamine & what I experienced yesterday was very much the same, the sense of "self" with the eyes closed & all that stuff you begin to "collapse" & when I put on Vishudha Kali- Rituals from Mountain Spirits Haidakhandi Aarti Sankirtan it seemed to really add to the experience with earphones on, I have never got this "far out" on Pregab before & didn't think it would be possible tbh.

Sadly Heroin around me in The UK is starting to get rare & Fent is making a huge rise which I REFUSE to use as it is totally shit IMHO & I think I'll start eating Pregab way more but not daily as I know they are something to do with GABA stuff in the Brain & I have heard if you get a habit with GABA drugs you can get really ill in withdrawl, I think I will be eating Pregab 3 times a week at a dose range of 700mg-900mg from now on, it is sure chaper than buying "Heroin" which is just Fent & some crap they dealer has tossed in to bulk out the Kilo brick.

I am really starting to LOVE pregabs sssssooooo much.

I will be 35 stone by next year, Pregab makes me so hungry which I find weird tbh.
Anyone else get SUPER HUNGRY off them?
 
with no tolerance I was taking 900mg in 1 go to get the visuals
Glad I am not alone here, I had the same thing yesterday on the same dose. (900mg of Pregab)
You said about snorting them, I always used to snort Zopiclone but it's a VERY YMMV way to take it, some people it fucking mashes to pieces & others get nothing from it, I have had very weird effects from it alongside a few others who tried it.

You snort 900mg pregab in one line?
I assume it kicks in faster than eating them?

fun isn't it, OEV a bit like psychedelics crossed with a khole without the head space, visuals can get pretty intense depending on how much you do and what other things you mix with it, weed obv helps a lot.

at higher doses pregab can feel a bit edgy though but usually 10mg of diazepam smooths it out fine, 20mg or so if you're being greedy or have tolerance

snorting makes it more edgy for me, too edgy in fact, I've snorted 900mg before, usually over an hour or 2 but generally prefer to eat 1 or 2 early in the morning (like 6am), and then play it by ear and snort 1 or 2 later in the day once oral has kicked in if it's not enough or where I want to be.

kicks in much faster snorting them yes, there's not very much research on bioavilability of snorting it, it feels more intense but that might just be because it's getting into your system faster and therefore driving peak plasma levels up quicker.

by far the nicest drug I've ever hovered up, very tasty and easy on the nose, but I personally prefer the high when eating them, it's a rounder high for me YMMV

"I took five 800 mg Gabapentin tablets by chewing them; is it possible to benefit from their bioavailability this way?"

I laughed at the part about eating them at 6am, for me they usually take between 1 hour to 2 hours before it begins but I had only once it kick in after 30 mins which caught me totally off guard & due to it working so fast I was out in public, it was so hard to get back to my flat.

They are very quickly becoming my drug of choice, the Heroin around here is getting worse & worse plus a shocking rise of Fent in the next town over where I used to live & is dubbed by West Midlands Police as "Brown Town" so go figure ;)
An old timer I know who's been on smack longer than me is now buying fent, the dealer is actually telling people it's not heroin it is fent & people are buying it FFS. If the quality of smack carries on going down so fast I'll stop all together & only eat pregab 2-3 times a week as they are so cheap & I am learning the GABA part of the brain is a good place & "God" has blessed us humans with THC / CBD receptors alongside GABA receptors too.

I had to cook my pregab food over a open fire due to electric issue but I really DON'T suggest this to people when you got a belly of 900mg Indian pregab, my balance was on the border of being totally crippled & the way I was viewing the world was a few seconds behind, it is a bit like MXE to me.

I gotta ask here so get ready............

1) Do you get VERY hungry on them? I'd say a good 80% of the time when I take them a few hours into it I become so hungry, the first few times I did them I posted about the hunger I got & what I ate, my diet on pregab has been 500grams of cheese just eaten from the block
2) HP Brown Sauce on white break, literally covering cheap white bread in HP sauce & eating it
3) 500grams of Pasta covered in HP Brown Sauce (notice a theme here?)
4) Asda Curry cooking sauce mixed with Asda Spaghetti hoops & half a pack of white bread

I had a weird feeling in the head (brain) & had a really BAD headache after it, is this normal?
I did like this dose as it hit me HARD but if I am honest & it's rare I say this it was too much for me if I am honest, I have heard doing fucking insane doses of pregab can cause a seizure & I am not excited about that tbh, I had a weird feeling in my brain a good 6-7 hours into it & the day after apart from still feeling it my brain felt like it was being stabbed in parts but it was really quick flashes but my "Soul" said to me this isn't normal or good.

900mg is too much, the issue is now I have gone above 600mg I understand the power & what goes on and I like it but 900mg is too much for me, I saw on Erowid people doing upto 3,000mg which I have NO DESIRE to try as I am sure I would have a seizure at that dose or have some medical issue & wake up covered in my own piss & have some real bad medical issue(s) for the rest of my life.

I love Energy drinks, I found having a Green Monster with it seems to give it a boost in a weird way, you tried this?
Smoking roll up's is such a joy, the feeling of Nicotine on them when you have waited a good 90 mins between a roll up is ssssooooo good, it is better than some sex I have had before, also Bass from Dub Reggae & Dubstep makes my whole body go really weird, I put on Matty G 50,000 watts & when the bass hit & the subwoofer moved it seemed to go really slow & the air moving hit me alongside the bass it was a very interesting experience, if they didn't take my legs so bad I would go to hard Techno raves on them with some MDMA too, I really think a 600mg dose of pregab would be great with a medium dose of MDA but NOT to go rave on, that combo would be if I had a whole day to waste & I could just crash on the sofa or if I lived in Spain take a medium dose of MDA & 600mg pregab with no tolerance, get on a blow up toy in the backyard pool & float around the pool all day with proper dubstep on & let the bass wash over me as I sink into the floating toy.

This is the Dubstep track I was on about, I say to anyone with a proper subwoofer stick this on about 3.5-5 hours after eating a good dose of pregab with ZERO tolerance & let the bass hit you, it will melt your bones & if you smoked black hash with it you'll really know about it.

 
I get very hungry on them.

I used to take 1.2g doses daily for a while mixed it with everything you can think off...

Now to get the crazy visuals and euphoria feeling I dont know what would be the dosage or if its even reachable.

I'vehad some everyday for two years and a half straight then stopped, did some gabapentin, sometimes back on it but it's never like before

I snorted some but it was while witing to get something like ket to snort or in a big morning mixup of rests
 
"I took five 800 mg Gabapentin tablets by chewing them; is it possible to benefit from their bioavailability this way?"
@KriptonitXxx 3,600 mg/day is the commonly prescribed max dosage, that has a bioavailability of about 30%, you're saturating your L-amino-acid transport system at some point and taking more won't do anything
I laughed at the part about eating them at 6am
I'm fucking orginised, 6am is the perfect time, they take about the same time to kick in for me, then I get the entire day fucked up and go to sleep nicely with a soma or something.

They are very quickly becoming my drug of choice,
it's mine by a long way, my issue is I like to take them in big combos, but given they last the entire day you can mix shit up throughout the day, I'm struggling to think of something they don't work epically well with, stims, gaba, soma, ket. Think the only thing I avoid is GHB/GBL with them. not sure if I've had 2C-B or MDMA with them, hmm can't remember, don't think so.

only big issue with them is tolerance builds too bloody fast, even taking them max once a week is a problem, I'm having to ration myself despite a couple of 1 month breaks. Seems I get almost back to baseline, take them for a month and having to up the dose again. I'm even keeping it to a max of 300mg these days.

1) Do you get VERY hungry on them?
maybe I'm strange, I tend not to eat at all when I take them, will have a decent breakfast just as they start to kick in, then might have to force myself to eat something late, though if I'm on stims that ain't happening - not a bad thing though, I gotta loose weight!

I had a weird feeling in the head (brain) & had a really BAD headache after it, is this normal?
common side effect, I get pins and needles sometimes, glad no headaches generally but pretty sure I've them with paracetamol/tylenol before when I've had them with a hangover...

I did like this dose as it hit me HARD but if I am honest & it's rare I say this it was too much for me if I am honest,
yeah 900mg with no tolerance is a lot, 300mg is pretty good to be honest, difference buzz, more chilled out, 600mg if you're getting fucked up and stacking other gaba

Erowid people doing upto 3,000mg
no doubt due to tolerance, I can't image what that would be like without any, 900mg is pretty hectic

I love Energy drinks, I found having a Green Monster with it seems to give it a boost in a weird way, you tried this?
not a fan of energy drink, but I love coffee, 300mg pregab, as it kicks in good coffee, 2 boiled eggs with soldiers, another cup of coffee and hour later with some weed - breakfast of champs

here's some base for you

 
I used to take 1.2g doses daily for a while mixed it with everything you can think off...
Such as? I have only done it with Hash & heroin so far, my "gut" says they will be BAD with booze.
With Hash I posted before about my experience, with Heroin I was mashed but NOT in a good way, I went on the gouge / nod so hard but I was out of it for most of the day & when I came around I felt SO ILL & I knew the feeling from my early days of smoking heroin when I had too much. Anyone new to Pregab I really DON'T suggest you mix it with ANYTHING

I am NO chemist but people on here have warned me about the GABA part f the brain, you can "burn it out" & I've heard so many times Pregab seem to stay in the body in some way so it's hard to get the high feeling.
YMMV but for me if I do 600mg dose or more on a Monday for me to get the same effect I have to wait at the VERY LEAST till Friday/Saturday otherwise it's really not the same. I wish I could eat pregab in the 750mg range 3-4 times a week but t would be a waste & I wil lburn the GABA part of the brain out, I cannot get back the glory days of 4-MeO-PCP as I did way too much, I will be so sad if I ever loose the magic of pregab.
 
Now to get the crazy visuals and euphoria feeling I dont know what would be the dosage or if its even reachable.
you should do a reset and see if you can get back to baseline, you've been taking a lot frequently, gonna be hard to get there I suspect, and doing it safely will be an issue due to the amount you need
my "gut" says they will be BAD with booze.
nope, it's great, you MUST significantly reduce your intake though, I'm an alcoholic and if I'm on pregab 2-3 beers is plenty
Anyone new to Pregab I really DON'T suggest you mix it with ANYTHING
yeah 100% this, doing combo with pregab is expert mode, you need to know both drugs very well - golden rule, always titrate up, even if it takes multiple sessions/weeks is much better and safer to that that than to kill yourself.

I would also call out that pregab potentiates GABA drugs very well, I can happily eat 60mg of diazepam, with pregab 10-20mg would give me a similar buzz....
600mg dose or more on a Monday for me to get the same effect I have to wait at the VERY LEAST till Friday/Saturday otherwise it's really not the same
imho you're better to leave it at least a week, longer ideally, and take the minimum dose possible. my tolerance seems to build faster when I take more even with the same dose - I log everything I take and can see the change over time
lburn the GABA part of the brain out,
try not to stack gaba drugs and give your system decent breaks/rests and you'll be fine imho

I dont drink on pregabs only sometimes but it aint good. Anything mixed with alcohol is bad in my book. And you are right don't do any mix if you are new to Pregab. That said:

I had a crazy doctor I was on opiates/benzo/pregab daily
so that was always the baseline, I would add weed/hash probably amphetamines if I had shit to do, cocaine if I didn't want to move and cathinones to be between the two.

I dont want to give you bad ideas but:

Crack - Pregabs - Benzos was always good. 1.2g wait for it to kick and smash a big line of k mixed with some stimulant if possible. And spark the biggest joint you could roll. I could skip days of opiates like that, then when you get back on them you would feel them a lot more because tolerance dropped.

When you are all wobbly and euphoric from the pregab you smoke a massive pipe you wont get back at it, you will feel full. I still remember those binges of crack - pregabs - benzos ending with k . It would negate all the side effects of crack like paranoia, shaking, overstimulation, cravings. Was so easy to put the pipe down that many crackers found it very useful to stop thinking about crack constantly. With amphetamines to socialize and hustle but be careful you can do really mad shit because of dehinibition + stimulant . I took bad decisions .

I couldn't take any stim without it, just like benzos. It would round the things so well. I would easily pass the gram mark when doing hexedrone/cocaine/speed.

I mixed it with LSD, 2CB, DXM, Artane, PCP analogs ... Just ask if you want more details

I love Energy drinks, I found having a Green Monster with it seems to give it a boost in a weird way, you tried this?

Yes drinking a redbull/monster during the come up hits hard lol that was the first thing I would get at the shop to make them kick haha. Strong coffee or simple soda works too.

I quit heroin/morphine in 2 weeks of speed , pregabaline and benzos. Multiple times and rather easily. So it's best to keep the pregab for opiate wd. I quit few times like that with no real pain, I would just relapse because was bored. These days I quit kratom/tram with a week or two of pregabs, amphetamines and k easily. That's the use of pregab i got now, get off of opiates or at least get the tolerance down.

am NO chemist but people on here have warned me about the GABA part f the brain, you can "burn it out" & I've heard so many times Pregab seem to stay in the body in some way so it's hard to get the high feeling.
Yes. After 3 years of pregab abuse ( I first used pregabaline in 2014, was really magic back then ) I tapered down from 1g to 150mg then in a year stopped but I didnt have any feelings anymore for a while and had very dark thoughts for long.

Very hard depression. But not as hard than benzos to me. Although it's probably the mix of it all.

I probably burned stuff although I felt it come back after a year or two of total abstinence of pregabs and as less as GABA drugs as possible. It was long so I am not doing it again. Now I binge 4.5g in a week and leave it, switch to gabapentin where the most i use will be 1.5g. I do believe the brain heals though.

Problem now when I get high on pregabs I think about cocaine or k and its a problem. it was supposed to relieve the cravings and now its the opposite .

Pregabs affect the speech, memory, makes you more impulsive and affect cognitive abilities a fair bit.

Be safe and dont do all those mixes and high doses, it hurts the brain. I stopped all that madness for 5 years now.

you should do a reset and see if you can get back to baseline, you've been taking a lot frequently, gonna be hard to get there I suspect, and doing it safely will be an issue due to the amount you need

I know I did a year break already, yet it made me jittery and edgy . Probably lost the magic but it's okay because I can use my brain instead of doing pregabs, it's nice too. Only using drugs as tools now I hardly get any great high from anything anymore.

I will be so sad if I ever loose the magic of pregab.
Sadly it's like all drugs out there...

And writng and reading all of this makes me feel like taking some

Cheers
 
@KetWise
I gotta ask here , what happened when you took pregab & DXM?

I'm lacking the cytochrome P450 enzyme known as CYP2D6 so it stays as DXO in my system which is Horrific in terms of a "high" if you can even call it that, I'd call it more like being very fucked up in a HORRIBLE way, it's nothing like Ket, MXE or 4-MEO-PCP.

I could see pregab being of use if you had smoked lots of Crack & had no access to Heroin.
 
nope, it's great, you MUST significantly reduce your intake though, I'm an alcoholic and if I'm on pregab 2-3 beers is plenty
So as I hardly drink & have a very low tolerance to booze say a 500ml bottle of that half decent Westons Cider at 8.5% 500ml & a Spliff after I've given the pregab 3 hours would do the trick you figure?

I gotta ask, not being a nosey cunt here but how much you drink a day & what is your drink of choice?
 
this stuff is well addictive. it had me raking in the bins outside to try and salvage some. jesus.
note the use of the word "addictive"

It felt very heavy and slow trip, not amazing. Makes the trip different visually but I didnt experiment a lot on the doses as I dont really get good stuff from DXM anyway .

I also did LSD+DXM+Pregab+others that was trippy as fuck, I stayed ten hours lying down tripping other music and visuals, then i puked and got sick from DXM like always.

Yeah pregab and crack mixed as it takes time to come up you wanna be zen after the second on third pipe

I'd expect that would be ok but take it slow the 1st time around, if you're quite a lightweight maybe even drink something ~4%, just don't go stacking more gaba/CNS until you get a feel for it.

my gaba is fucked, I'm happy doing 600mg pregab, 30mg diazepam and 1.5g of soma with a fair bit of booze, would not advise this for people without a tolerance!!!

it fucks me up nice and good, serious risk of choking on your own vomit here


I gotta ask, not being a nosey cunt here but how much you drink a day & what is your drink of choice?
weekend binge drinker + another day or 2 lighter session mainly, but in the bad times I'd be 4 or 5 days a week.

typical friday night binge was 1/2 a bottle of whiskey (maybe with a few beers), but 3/4 of a bottle of without much of an issue, much better now (though had 1/2 a litre of gin last night, drinking much more with reduced drug intake ffs, planning another dry month).

and so the cycle of abuse restarts....
 
I'll never get why people abuse these god awful pharamcuticals that dont provide much of high plus the long term consequences of it. The risk reward benefit is just not worth it for me. But hey these youngings could careless if there in the old age home in their late 50s and 60s not remembering who their family is because its not happening now.
