Well, I had a pretty big relapse with Oxycodone and Hydromorphone at the end of August - Feb 02/11. Before that I was clean, and just using GHB sometimes. I know GHB acts on GABA-B. I didn't start using benzo's until I tried to detox myself off opiates again. Then I went to a local detox centre here for free and they did such a shitty benzo taper with Valium (like 1 10mg Valium in the morning, and 1 at like 8PM, then started going down to 5mg the next day). It wasn't even funny. I was mainly taking Clonazepam but high doses prior. Not like my benzo habit before, but it was still up there. I was in detox from Feb 02 - Feb 10th.
When I got out I was using some 2.5mg Lorazepam that I had here, and I also some 10mg Valiums left. I've also been on Lyrica for a long time as well. I currently also take Effexor XR and Trazodone for sleep.
Even if I take 40mg of Valium, I still feel kind of shitty. I've been clean from opiates since Feb 2nd/2011. Still feeling kind of rough. Prior to this I've been on opiates for 7 years, and Benzo's off and on about the same. But I did a 96 day treatment program in BC last February 2010 which was really good, lots of exercise, etc.
I have some GHB on the way, but probably won't be here until next week sometime.
I notice even if I drink a 6 pack of Cider, I don't end up getting that drunk really. I was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for me? I have some 50mg Metoprolol for tachycardia back from November that I sometimes use before sleep.
Anyone got any suggestions how I could use the rest of my small amount of Valium to help taper (I also have Lyrica). I've never had a seizure, I'm not worried about that really. I still don't have my appetite back really. Sorry if my story is kind of confusing, but Ativan & Valium don't seem to affect me much at all. I think my GABA-A receptors are pretty hammered.
I guess exercise and lots of water is the best answer. Where I am in Canada, its very hard to get prescribed benzo's. I am only 24 - so I am trying to stay clean because I have my whole life ahead of me. But I've never had a problem with pure GHB powder. Infact, its helped me get through a lot of rough times.
I don't know if Effexor XR is a good choice or not, I been on it a couple months now at 150mg/day. I been on Paxil, Cipralex, Luvox, different SSRI's. I also take supplements and lots of vitamins.
Any help or words of encouragement would be very helpful. I know benzo's are tough to kick, but my use hasn't been too extreme this relapse.
Thanks guys,
Cheers. :D
