Pregab's my DOC, i took it once per week for 18 months, over that time I went from 300mg to 900mg to maintain a similar rec high, and then had a 1 month break and that didn't reset my receptors, used for 2 months and another months break didn't either.
Pregab needs at least 10 days between doses, ideally 14, to be honest you'd be better once per month.
the issue is you're just not clearing your receptors out
I've been taking 12 different drugs that effect different receptors and have been doing this daily for a few years now, all it does is delay the inevitable and then the inevitable is dealing with multiple addictions.
you'll have more success cycling with things that have short half life and/or fast receptor recovery and/or should only be taken occasionally anyway e.g. 2C-B > MDMA > xanax > Coke > shrooms > weed > , but you can't do this cycle daily, MDMA once every 3 months, 2C-B/coke once a month, Xanax once a fortnight, then fill in with Weed (high dose if you need to get fucked up) and maybe some micro/macro doing of shrooms.
if you're going to do more frequently then cycle the tolerance breaks.
Common fuck ups
1. Combing different drugs - because hell they're in the box and it's a treat, your deserve it right, or fucking bob, he was a cunt to me today so yeah it's just a 1 off
2. Increasing dosage - Just fancy a bit more today, or need a stronger high, lets pop 2 today, no idea that this is a sign of addiction and tolerance building
3. Taking more frequently than planned - Sure your plan says once ever 4 days, but it's day 3 and well you know, this once taking it early will be fine
4. Alcohol - yes sure you know it's a drug, but not really right, so drinking doesn't count, and it definitely never ever ends in you being drunk and eating fist fulls of whatever is laying around
5. Availability - poly drug use tends to mean a box of drugs within easy reach, you take them more often basically because they're there, and even though you have the best will power of any human that's ever lived, maybe just 1 extra blue would be fine today
I started cycling 3 different drugs 3 times a week and was semi sensible with it for a while, but at my worst I was taking more like 3 different drugs daily, with 4, 5, 6 or 7 different drugs at weekends, dosage started reasonable but there are plenty of days in my log book where I had half a bottle of whiskey, 900mg pregab, 40mg diazepam, coke/mephedrone/ket, 1500mg Soma, weed, and 2mg kpin for a nice nights sleep (usually on the sofa because I didn't make it to bed).
shock news that's not sustainable....I've stopped combos completely now, then moved to have weed only days and multiple days per week where I took nothing, I introduced tolerance breaks, and I'm now moving to become a weekend warrior while still cycling drugs week to week. IMHO I think the weekend warrior version is the only version of this that will work, and even then only by cycling the right drugs weekly, you don't want to doing coke weekly really.....
There's a shit ton of info in those 2 threads above,
educate yourself ffs, the 1st post in the 1st thread leads to a big super summary of everything you need to know, it will take you 10 mins to skim through, you can pick and choose the bits of it to read in detail, here it is almost all the info you need in 1 place, just click on it and read it, might save you a fucking lot of pain.
I'm on another mission, so a big update.
After more research I've used AI to create a protocol for poly drug use, the key goals are:-
- Avoid tolerance/dependency
- Avoid hitting receptors repeatedly with multiple drugs
- Give receptors time to recover between uses
- Stick to a usage frequency pattern that keeps dosage fixed and the effect the same
- Provide options to further reduce usage as a next step
- Dosage is assumed to be "normal" recreational amount - as per "threshold, common/normal, strong" general dosage amounts. YMMV etc.
As a result of the goals I've removed...
