So on the beautiful Fourth of July here in New England, my girlfriend and several of my close friends thought the beach would be lovely to watch fireworks. We figured the car ride would take around an hour and a half.

I had taken large amounts of gabapentin before, mainly before concerts. For those who do not know, Gabapentin is prescribed for neuropain, but I have it off-label as a sleep aid and mood enhancer. I am given 60x 300mg pills each month, however I never take them as prescribed (my doc throws drugs at me -- to many).

Having a large amount of experience with the Gaba, I know that redosing throughout the day is the best way to get the effects of Gabapentin, with a heavy weed-smoking session at the pinical.

T+ 0:00 Before we jumped into the car, myself and three others popped down 3x 300MG pills.
T+ 0:45 minutes later, in the car, we popped down 3 more 300MG pills, bringing the total to 1,800MG. No feeling yet.
T+ 1:30, we pop 1 more 300MG pill. Body warmth and overall happiness, but nothing heavy. Total is 2,100MG.
T+ 1:45, we are at the beach! We celebrate by taking larger than usual piss breaks, followed by 1 more 300MG pill. We are at 2,400MG, or 8x 300MG pills. A sunshower happens, we all don't really mind it and joke about it. It passes in a few minutes and all is well.
T+ 2:30, the gabapentin is kickin nicely. A drunk feeling, but without any sort of sickness. We start playing football on the beach, my coordination doesn't seem effected greatly, I am doing just fine, better then most of my other friends.
T+ 3:00, everyone is chatting... Well, talking rapidly, about anything, everything. I feel great, everything is happy, and I am very glad to be around my friends and my girlfriend. We walk on the boardwalk to go get some food, it tastes great, and I get the sensation that I am dizzy... I sort of feel like I am off the planet, anyone not on gabapentin doesn't really matter to me.
T+ 3:30, fireworks are getting close to happening. We start rolling up 3 headies blunts for 5 kids, and all pop 2 more pills, taking the total to 10x 300MG pills, or 3G of gaba. I'm feeling really nice right now.

T+ 4:00. We smoke the blunts. Oh. My. God. My vision is fucked up, trails everywhere. Music sounds great! I should dance. I must dance. I'm dancing. Dancing on the beach with the sun setting and the wind blowing, the ocean moving. Hand stand? I want to do a hand stand. There I go, doing a handstand! Maybe I should dance again.... I look around and see everyone is doing the same I am. Crazy dancing, smiles, and stumbling...

*BOOM* First firework goes off. These are massive. I have a hard time seeing exactly what pattern they are making, eventually all the lights just blur together in the sky. It reminds me of the omni-theater, but louder, larger, and more visually pleasing. Everything is 3-D, colors blurring and sound pulsing into my body. Each firework sets off a body-gasum. I can see others physically struggling with the emotional and physical sensations they are getting from each explosion...

T+ 4:30. The grand-final show goes off, and we are all feeling absolutly destroyed by fireworks. I can think of nothing else I would have rather done... Our sober driver brings us home. On the drive home, I saw a lot of things I knew were not there... Color trails, vision blurring, and small creatures appeared in perriferial vision.

Overall, I would say this is as close to E as any pharm I have tried. This shit is also VERY easy to get and VERY inexpensive for me to obtain large quantities of. I have read that it is safe up to 10grams in the span of 2 days, but I can't imagine eating that many 300MG pills. The strength doesn't stack in that way, anyway.

I don't think so. The synergy given off by the two is outstanding, though. To be honest, I wouldn't bother with Gaba if I didn't have a solid amount of weed to smoke while peaking.

The best way, believe it or not, to dose Gaba is to eat a large full meal and pop down some pills throughout the day, then smoking after you've dosed a few grams. This is from my experience, however.

I've also found, through my friends, that everyone gets a varying degree of intensity. One of my friends gets completely fucked by this method, while another says they just feel very good.
 
Nice report man, seems like you had a great time. There are not enough on this somewhat mysterious drug.

Yeah, some people say it's better to dose the pills, others say they take it all at once. I know that it can take up to 2 hours to kick in...


Why do you think redosing is the best method, chainer?

gaba or, neurontin is a central nervous system depressant and it can be used for depression/bipolar, siezures and nerve pain(like lyrica). im on it for nerve pain and i take 6-8 800mg. tabs to groove. this is a high dose for anyone, and you should gradually increase to this level if you plan to try it. know your body. know your drug.
 
Hey I have a bunch of neutronin i was wondering does it bind to GABA receptors in the brain or how does it get you high? I took it long time ago ate 3000mg and remember i was pretty fucked up but i don't even remember what it feels like.
 
Oddly it doesn't affect gaba receptors. I know it blocks potassium channels and amplifies the effect of chloride ions somehow. Increased concentration of chloride ions makes you relaxed and sedated; the potassium channels I don't know about but probably involves the body high. It also blocks NMDA channels in the hippocampus, so does it count as a mild dissociative? I take 3200 mg per day for bipolar disorder and it's been a miracle for me. I'm less irritable and have more energy but I'm relaxed.

The high definately disappears quickly due to tolerance. If you're doing this recreationally I would wait at least 3-4 weeks between "trips." Otherwise the visuals like trails and CEVs disappear. Strangely I still feel a body high in my legs but nothing else other than a mood lift, because I take it in high doses every day.

Also if you take more than 6-7 grams you're wasting it, only so much gets absorbed. I used to take a big dose on a full stomach with a carbonated drink and some Aleve (naproxen sodium) to aid absorption.
 
hehe.

i dont believe that gabapentin by itself gives any more of a high than mild herbal tea.

but hopefuly there's enough kids like you around for a lucky motherfucker to make some dough off easy-to-get, mainly-for-arthritis-and-old-people neurontins
 
I know this is an old bump but for those of you who are doubters, I suggest trying it the right way. Eat a large meal and take 900mg every few hours until you reach around 3,200mg or a bit higher. Smoke your first blunt of the day, and enjoy the waves hitting you. I still am a firm believer that, with rare use (once every few months), this drug mirrors MDxx in a very close way. I've enjoyed heavy CEVs, eye wiggles, present dizziness that I would associate with being "buzzed" on alcohol, and high that i would associate with weed, as well as a slightly psychedelic feeling and general euphoria.

Besides, I'm not paying a dime more than my co-pay for this, so for me, it's pretty much a free good day every month or so. I get enough to supply 3-4 of my friends to accompany me, the effects are not placebo.

For redosing method, I think it has to do with the bio availability of the drug. It is rather low as you take more and more, which is why over 3-4G is a complete waste. As far as tolerance, there is defiantly a VERY strong and quick tolerance that comes up. I cannot catch an equivalent buzz the next day from the same dose, or even the same week. I stopped trying. I enjoy it once in a blue moon now. I still stand by my TR and the effects.

Wait, where did you get the stuff about NMDA-antagonism?? I'm genuinely interested! (do you have a ref?)

I take gabapentin for the same reasons too, and it is one of only two things that ever worked for me. Guess what the other one is? Ketamine!
