So I've been on a two day Focalin binge (suped up Ritalin). Found 30ish pills that my little brother had from over a year ago. So no worries, he wasn't using them or needing them. I'm not that bad off :)

I've taken all of them in about 60 hrs. They were the 10mg XR type. I ate around 90mg yesterday, then began again around 12:30 this morning. I started orally but moved up to insuff and oral mix. Being a recently retired cocaine IV user (LOVE the rush, and believe me, I pushed it farther than anyone ever should). So I was looking for a rush. Was slightly disappointed in that regard, but was okay. The high was fun and long-lasting.

But, after being up since 12pm yesterday (it is now 3pm) blowing and eating these pills like candy, I began to crash...moderately hard. Not as bad as an IV coke comedown. But still, not fun seeing as how I get super anxious and disphoric when I crash off stims and I have obligations with family and a kid's bday party to attend soon. So I was looking for a comedown.

Well, I scored. I happen to be staying with my mom for a few weeks till I go to work in the oilfield. I was digging for some hydrocodone or something like it because she can't take it anyhow b/c she gets sick. So I began digging after she mentioned something along the lines of "I can't take Vicodin, and I know how bad you get on them so I won't be giving you any of those" after I had mentioned legit back pain. This qued me in on maybe she had some stashed. Well, I found something a little better for this situtation: Lyrica.

I've heard of it and heard it was wonderful--like opiates, alcohol w/out the "sloshed" effect, and benzos with a bit more energy. So I was happy to find them. Note that they are an 18 month old script that she has taken maybe 2 of. So again, not stealing meds from the needy.

I took 75mg (one pill) for starters seeing as how I still need to be funtional. It helped but not 100%. So I took another 75mg.

It works WONDERS for the comedown!

I can still tell I've been up all night on a speed binge, but mood is back up, energy is good, and overall feeling of well-being and relaxation restored. I plan on taking at least another 75-150mg very soon. Then I'll eat and see where I'm at.

Conclusion: Lyrica is GREAT for comedown. Better than Xanax and I'm a XAN FREAK (see my username). I am really looking forward to later tonight and tomorrow when I can use this substance for pure recreation and fun.

BE SAFE OUT THERE!
