I recently detoxed from Opiates (heroin > Suboxone > Sublocade -- about 3 months out from only 1 shot).

I take Pregabalin/Lyrica daily and have been attempting to reduce my dosage. Between the recent opiate detox and the terrible attempt at a lyrica taper, I am having trouble relaxing and am basically manic, just high stress, high activity, no relaxing.


What are some lesser known drugs that cause relaxation and general chill? (non-benzos, non-opiates/oids)
 
Easy to obtain ones? Legal ones? Safe ones? Less abusable ones? Can you be a little more specific? I can list plenty obscure depressant substances.

Open to the different possibilities, everything is obtainable in this day and age.

I'm just looking to learn of substances/herbs/whatever that can relax+sedate you and make you feel chilled out thats not opioids or benzos. Preferably also not gabaergics. Nothing thats psychadelic or stimulant.

I can think of mulungu as one thats decent.

Then you have things that barely have an effect like lemon balm, passionflower, etc.

A combo of muscimol and kava is remarkably similar to benzos. Both are legal and easy to find, but making sure your muscimol is decarboxylated is essential. Also finding good kava can be surprisingly difficult. Tons of shitty kava out there. Do not be cheap when buying either, the quality stuff is pricey.
 
I've had no luck with kava to be honest but its worth another try.

As for muscimol it leans into the same camp as mulungu for me where it just seems like to much work compared to what you get out of it. I guess Kava kind of fits into that to although the extracts are okay.
 
I've paid the money for chemically pure muscimol. It's an interested molecule. I would never want to eat the mushroom itself, I can't stand mushroom taste.

I've never found success with kava either until I took a combo for highly purified versions of both together.
