Okay this is just a question. I know that it helps with benzo and PAWS but i was wondering since I can't seem to find anything on the internet. Will it help with phenibut withdrawal?

Yes thats why I asked it in a question........Okay withdrawing from gabapentin while still having some suck's but I have been on the phenibut for two months. Most days I dread even taking it...It does nothing to sharpen my mind or anxiety....It is more like a poison then anything.....So I have dumped my phenibut out and I still have gabapentin. So I was asking whether gabapentin would atleast mask the five to seven day's of withdrawals.... I hate anything that will make you go thru withdrawals. I'm out of luck here. it's the only option I have besides not taking anything a really causing myself some pain. Also klonopin doesn't do jack and I'm not abusing it for any reason.

You'll be effectively replacing one for the other since they're both GABAergics. It will only mask the WD the same way taking more phenibut would, i.e. not at all, rather just maintaining dependence.

So your saying that gabapentin is useless to use or are you saying that I will just be caught in a web of addictions by replacing one with another?

The gabapentin will partially mask the withdrawals from phenibut. I know this from experience, and I have a five years' worth of tolerance to gabapentin. If you have less of a tolerance, then it might eliminate the WD.

What I'm saying is that you'll continue to be addicted in the same way, except to another drug. It's like if a hydrocodone addict switches to codeine.
