My Phenibut Affair (Really F'n Long)

Sorry for necroposting but does anyone know how long roughly it takes for tolerance to build? Am I likely to have much from 3 days of use? How long does it take for withdrawal to start?

Thanks
So my first use - ever, was about one week ago. I’ve used it four times so far (today being one) with one day in between each dose. Even this time with like 48hrs in between (using 1.2grams - up from 1gram) I barely felt anything. The first time was incredible. Anxiety relief, energy and high sociability. Seems to be similar to how gabapentin is for some people the first time is magical and it takes a LONG time to reclaim the Magick. I’m on lyrica so I haven’t noticed any rebound other than lethargy but from what I understand it can bite you in the ass fairly quickly.

Tolerance rises quickly, I'm told.

Yeah, you will.

I don't know but if you could tell us that would be helpful. Given the half life I'd say several days to a week. That's a total guess tbh.
 
I've bought a few 10g bags with weeks or maybe a month in between, doing it daily when I currently have a bag. The last one I bought is 25g, 3g still gets me fucked up but it doesn't feel as good as the first time I recently did it. I have been mixing with alcohol at points but I didn't for the last two days. I did 5g two days ago and it got me very messed up, I think I still had a hangover 12+ hours later

So you do it daily?
 
Those of you who’ve tried baclofen in contrast to phenibut , how do you find the difference?
Baclofen works well for rebound you can get from phenibut and it has a pretty lose abuse and withdrawal profile. Your useful med but your not going to get a euphoria from it like with phenibut. I was just reading about it to find out why one provides a “high” and the other doesn’t. Baclofen is actually a more potent agonist of the GABAB receptor site but Phenibut affects the same site that lyrica and gabapentin do as well (I forget what it’s called it’s that weird symbol) which gives it a kick. It’s also way more lipophilic than baclofen is.

That is very helpful, thanks!

Sounds like you're going over, mate.

Leave it alone.

If your combining it with alcohol, and more than a couple pints you're playing with fire.
