nah its actual withdrawals, not just the rebound, i cant sleep without it either.
http://snopes.com/cokelore/cokelore.aspI'm sure there are a number of things you could use coca-cola to clean, people don't mind guzzling that down. I'd be interested to see if coca-cola or GBL would dissolve a tooth faster. GBL is an industrial solvent, but then again, so is water.
I used to try tapering, and it never ever worked. If I didn't have a dose that had an effect, it just made me feel like death. GABA-B is a pretty unforgivable receptor that doesn't respond well to tapering (unlike GABA-A - benzos, etc), but luckily they recover very quickly.It's really not hard to get yourself out of G addiction just with tapering. So long as you've got at least 2 days of your normal usage amounts then you can do it with minimal discomfort.

The alcohol analogy is a good one. I might have to steal thatI usually compare it to peppermint oil. You can't drink it straight but it sure is lovely dilluted.
I always bring up the alcohol one as well.
Again, I know its relative but how much G do you need to take on a regular basis to get this effect or withdrawl?
I think you need to be using it almost round the clock for a good number of days to get full-on withdrawal. I think if you're using it on a regular basis it's more a case of psychological dependence.
You couldn't stay awake?! You are wired backwards. Ha.Withdrawal wasn't anything too horrific - just couldn't stay awake and felt a bit anxious.
