Imo best wud be soma, good by itself but develope tolerance quickly, baclofen helps me with migraines usually 20 or 40mg, lyrica gets me too fucked up just b a mess, like gabapentin by itself bout 900mg seems like tolerance to fun effects dev quickly, would take bout any of them, all have combined well with opiates and benzos for me, is cyclobenzaprine in this category, 30mg can really add to a low dose of opiates

Personally I've never seen any recreational,fun effects from gabapentin.All it ever did was make me kinda drowsy when mixed with benzos.Everyone's different though and if gabapentin gives you a buzz that's great since it's easy as shit to get.

I like phenibut but the after effects suck. The next two days after i use it im really irritable and hate the world. GABA rebound I guess??

^yeah agree.
The first time i tried phenibut was so euphoric. it's still good, but just not as strong and 'mdma'-like as the first time tryinng it was.
Plus yeah, lingers for couple days and it feels groggy a bit.
I can't get it anymore but i remember it also being great for sleep.

I have a whole script of gabapentin. I never noticed any recreational value.

The best gamma-aminobutyric acid analogue is gamma-hydroxybutyric acid. I think I only did it maybe 3 to 4 times, but it made me extremely horny. I could see how it could develop into an addiction. Luckily, downers are not my thing. Plus, I've also seen too many public freak outs / overdose situations in clubs, and even one death. The line between intoxication and overdose is extremely thin. The last time I took it, a guy took advantage of my situation to have sex with me while I was under the influence, and he was not. No wonder GHB has such a bad reputation.

Haven’t tried phenibut but of all the ones I’ve tried Lyrica is by far my favorite. Mixing Lyrica with weed is amazing, great body high and (for me) it makes the high feel almost psychedelic. Not recommending it as I’m not aware of the possible dangers but taking it with alcohol will get you shitfaced off of as little as two shots of 120proof (possibly less for some considering I’m pretty used to 180proof moonshine and can down 4-5shots in less than 10mins without blacking out or puking. I don’t want that to come off as me bragging or trying to start some type of competition just said it as reference to my natural tolerance which is an important factor to consider. I don’t drink enough to build up a tolerance but everyone’s different, some people can’t handle that much others can handle more) which I personally feel is a plus. I also feel it adds more sedation to opiates which is great if you don’t have shit to do. Also seems to take the edge off of amphetamine to an extent but not to the point it messes up productivity (which is a problem with benzos at times.) Speaking of benzos it definitely seems to have a major impact on them, I’d consider benzos and Lyrica the best of the combos after Lyrica and weed.
Even though I really enjoy Lyrica I am not a big fan of gabapentin (even though they’re so closely related.) Maybe it’s just me but I feel that Lyrica feels much more (for lack of a better word) clean. I personally think of gabapentin as the poor mans Lyrica. Sure it’s an OK addition to opiates, alcohol or benzos (never tried it with weed) but Lyrica is so much better. Furthermore even taken without other substances Lyrica has some recreational value (though some might disagree) for me a dose of 950-1200mg produces a very euphoric almost surreal drunken state. I have never felt any recreational effects off of gabapentin alone, although that might be because I’ve never exceeded 2g in a single dose (with some tolerance).
Used to think baclofen was ok until I had a near death experience with it. One night I was in severe pain but had no opiates so I took 3 10mg pills at first (also had a low dose of Klonopin about 1.5mg earlier that day) wasn’t feeling very much (didn’t realize at the time I hadn’t given them enough time to kick in) so I took another pill before long I completely blacked out and started compulsively redosing because i was in severe pain and kept forgetting I’d taken more, at some point I got into the booze, by the end of the night I’d consumed 30pills. Around 7am my friend found me in the backyard completely unresponsive at first and called an ambulance. I remember waking up long enough to beg him not to call (but my breathing was extremely shallow at this point so he ignored me) I then passed out as he was begging me to stay awake. I would walk several feet then just collapse. By the time the ambulance arrived I’d completely forgotten what was happening and wondered why there was an ambulance there. I was conscious for most of the ride but I had no clue where I was or what was going on everything just seemed surreal. When I arived I briefly became lucid enough to talk to the doctors and my friend everything I said was so slurred they barely understood what I was saying and I’d forget what I was talking about in the middle of a sentence and start to pass out and quickly be woken up by whoever was there but that only lasted 15mins or so before I I passed out and become completely unresponsive. I was told I went into a deep sleep for several hours during which I was told my breathing became so labored the ER doctor had me rushed to ICU. I woke up in ICU with no recollection of how I’d ended up there, nothing seemed real but the slurring wasn’t as bad and I could actually hold a conversation and retain some of what the other person was saying and they were able to conclude that it was not a suicide attempt, I passed out again within about an hour. I was apparently grinding my teeth while I was asleep and woke up screaming in pain (from a previous injury which had gotten worse the previous day which is why I took 3 then 4 pills in the first place, because I couldn’t stand the pain not to get high) I tried to ignore it and grit my teeth because I assumed nobody would give me painkillers after that whole ordeal, but I had a great doctor who said it wasn’t right that my previous doctor hadn’t prescribed painkillers even though they were necessary because they were afraid of the DEA. Since my oxygen levels had gone back to normal he ordered a very low dose of morphine for me and gradually increased it while having me very closely monitored in ICU in case there were any problems. I stayed in ICU 24hrs very little of which I remember then 2 more days in a regular room.
I would never knowingly take such a large dose but I didn’t remember taking more. I’ll never mess with this stuff again but for those of you who choose to please be very careful. I can’t believe how reckless this stuff made me and I feel like such an idiot I was embarrassed to even talk about it but I thought for the sake of harm reduction I should, maybe this will prevent someone from making the same stupid mistake I did and hopefully you guys won’t ridicule me too much over it.
Sorry for such a long post must be the dextroamphetamine.
