๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ Social ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ What Was YOUR Nightly Fix? v. Smoking the Midnight Oil

Thank you friend, means a lot. I have to remind myself to keep living clean for those who cannot live anymore and that usually motivates me again.
Did you lose a lot of friends?
I believe in you, have you tried 12-step meetings to get sober?
Thank you ๐Ÿ˜…... I'm not that confident atm...been sticking the needle up and down my legs to i.m. low dose K... And redosed the Diazepam as well... Idk...feels a bit hopeless.. Tbh I never even considered professional help...I only heard about 12 step meetings on here and I don't really know what they're about ๐Ÿ˜…
 
How do you get anything off gabapentin? Ive been taking it for about 20 years for pain and have never gotten anything off it. I thought tolerance built so fast that you could only get high a few times on it anyway but i could be wrong
Some people just don't get anything recreational from it. I don't really know why, and gabapentin is such a strange drug pharmacologically that I can't even guess as to why that might be. But I have met a lot of people who get nothing from it even with high doses, staggered doses, etc.

@Mushoku_Sensei I think that some people just have a deficiency in their endorphin system that makes opiates particularly appealing. But there are other ways to engage that system outside of drugs as I am sure you know. I am wondering, do you have any hobbies or means of emotional expression? Bc you've mentioned doing drugs when you're bored so maybe having something to do for yourself (like some "me time") would help.

And as for me, it's a slow night. I am on:
Gabapentin
Adderall
Methadone
Homemade cookies
 
Did you lose a lot of friends?
Lost one of my closest friends to a H overdose a couple years ago. He was my best friend at some point. Then a few others who lost their lives, some who lost their freedom and some who lost their mind.

Its worth a shot, it might not click for you but I would give it an honest chance and go to at least 10+ meetings before you decide if its for you or not. I think you will find that there are more people who we share stories with as addicts than we previously thought.
 
moderate amt of methamhpetmaien smoked and also ... too much cannabis smoked.....

im twired.

gpt doesn't want me taking cyproheptadine or promethazine or seroquel tonight at thier starting doses.....

i choooose scyproheptadine tonight. 8mg. 20% chance of any sleep tonight. at least it will feeel good to lie down.

Hmm... First of all thank you for bothering ๐Ÿ™ I don't think that I have a pre-existing disposition on neuronal level, though ofc I don't know fs... I'm basically using drugs to escape my marriage/life ( I called it zombie marriage before and I still think it fits). I'm hardly ever alone but a big part of me is as lonely as can be... Do you believe that you are worthy and deserving love and a functional partnership? I thought I did, but what I really chose is a nightmare ๐Ÿ™„. If you're interested and have a lot of time on hand you can read it up here: https://www.bluelight.org/community/threads/i-just-hate-being-sober.945915/
It certainly doesn't cover every detail but it will give you a good idea. To sum it up in short is that I have and had an even worse fear of being a single parent. So separation is difficult but will be eventually unavoidable. Until then I'm facing frustrations on a regular basis and a little more than two years ago started looking for an escape. Some (mental) space that could give me relief and the fulfillment I've been missing for more than a decade...
By now I can't finish work and come home without the monster inside demanding it's reward for shutting up for a while... My me-time is at night when the kids are asleep - which results in chronic sleep deprivation and exhaustion. (I'd actually need a regular stim to avoid the sleep attacks at work but I refuse to use more than just caffeine for that...). Also the time I have is p much exclusively spent on drugs and online - that's my private life... Hobbies - nil. Expression - writing on here. That's it actually. Boredom is not from having nothing to do but from not wanting to do what I should ๐Ÿ˜’. It's a nice vicious cycle that's keeping everything as it is on endless repeat...
Sorry for the wall of text ๐Ÿ˜…

I'm very sorry for your losses ๐Ÿ™. It's a strong reminder of the fact that we're never suffering alone - it always affects those close to us, be it good or bad...

Thank you ๐Ÿ’œ.You made me read up some recovery resources and I'm grateful for that ๐Ÿ™. I'm not done reading yet but didn't want to delay the reply any longer ๐Ÿ˜…. What I found very interesting is this one: https://www.bluelight.org/community/threads/mindfulness-based-harm-reduction-resources.787080/
I'm not expecting any groups even exist around here (VERY rural area), but it's good to just read this... Maybe I can find some group online...
OT: last night had 200 mg Tilidin, 75 mg pregabalin ( running low on that) and 50 mg dmh... I was truly sober ๐Ÿ’€

To avoid totally derailing the thread I'll probably just have to PM you sometime soon as there is quite a bit I wanted to say in response, but I will say briefly that if writing on here is a form of self expression you might also try journaling or other forms of writing. Writing might work better (or address certain emotional needs better) as a form of expression if you are not writing for an audience.

And as far as the thread topic goes, wind and sea conditions look pretty good, there's some ten foot shore break, so I'm going to launch into some fentanyl and methamphetamine. Surfs up!
 
Felt pretty shitty yesterday afternoon (felt dirty and sweaty), but made it through the evening/night with:
3 g Kratom (Maeng Da red, the raw powder taken with Vitamin C),
75 mg Pregabalin,
75 mg Tramadol,
Thymoquinone (Nigella sativa extract) and
5-6 mini i.m. shots of K - until I felt sick lol ๐Ÿ˜‚
This is a triple red alert combo according to psychonaut, but it's low dose with tolerance so it was actually helpful... Woke up with minor bone pain and active digestion - you wanted to know that right? ๐Ÿ˜‚
 
just a lot of weed and 1 or 2 5mg deschloroetizolam tablets, forgot if I already took one so took another, but counting now I think I already took one before oops

Trying to take a tolerance break from the speed for a while and man, I am so fucking tired. Couldnโ€™t get out of bed until late afternoon and nothing is interesting or I just canโ€™t get myself to do anything, even if itโ€™s something I know Iโ€™d enjoy .โ€”.

Tempted to take some O-DSMT, but will just smoke some more weed and go to bed I think, donโ€™t want to waste my opioid tolerance, but god do I hate feeling too sober.

Good evening/night yโ€™all, hope tomorrow will be better
 
It's been a calm day for me despite starting off in a low... Guess I tried to taper a bit too fast ๐Ÿ™„.
So for tonight it was
2,6 g Kratom,
5 mg Diazepam (on top of the Clona earlier, because my backpain is returning when I cut back the opis),
75 mg Pregabalin,
50 mg Tramadol
50 mg dmh
And a single im shot of K, just to confirm that I grew some tolerance to that now also ( not a real surprise ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ)
Running out of benzos now as well which is really bad at this point...

How does deschloroetizolam compare with regular etizolam? Just curious.

Canโ€™t compare the two unfortunately, canโ€™t get etizolam. I find benzos to be very flaky with the effects they produce for me, my tolerance seems to go up crazy fast too, so Iโ€™m trying to keep that low as benzo wd is the last thing I need and it just wouldnโ€™t be worth it in my opinion.

Diazepam was nice the first few times, but got too expensive, so trying to find a cheaper rc alternative for comedowns and what not, so far chloroetizolam has been decent, would describe as perhaps a bit more stimulating / less muscle relaxation than diazepam.
 
, my tolerance seems to go up crazy fast too, so Iโ€™m trying to keep that low as benzo wd is the last thing I need and it just wouldnโ€™t be worth it in my opinion.
๐Ÿ’ฏ As far as the less sedating ones are concerned I also really fear the illusion of sobriety/black out risk.
So I've been looking all over for the most sedating and muscle relaxing ones out there... I might have missed something but looks like Diazepam is the king of the latter, for sedation I'm not sure... Bromazolam seems to be reasonable though it seems far more addictive than Diaz - opinions welcome.
OT: as I couldn't decide on anything else yet ended up going for an AP after a long time - 50 mg Melperon, perfect for oldies like me ๐Ÿ˜œ, though I probably need at least 75 to knock out..
25 mg Tramadol ๐Ÿ˜ฌ - the reason why I want a benzo..
50 mg dmh - bad idea, double side effects
(and a ridiculously tiny shot of K cause I was so dissatisfied ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿคท)

I took 1mg phenazolam (clobromazolam) with 5mg the deschloroetizolam and once the phenazolam hit, that shit knocked me tf out

Iโ€™d agree diazepam is one of the better, more chiller and good as a muscle relaxant. Have never experienced a blackout or anything crazy from diazepam. Itโ€™s a shame itโ€™s quite expensive to get the real 10mg pills here.

Am yet to try the phenazolam after using uppers, but I feel stronger rc benzos like these are either better low dose for long term anxiety or to just knock you out when tweaking and unable to sleep. Donโ€™t remember falling asleep, I just woke up with all my lights still on, while my phone magically had been charged to full battery (previously at 3%), so definitely be cautious, these came in 2mg presses too and breaking one to just take 1mg was pretty hard, I definitely would have done some stupid shit if I took the entire thing.
 
Just riding the jolly waves of 2400 mg gabapentin, staggered! I'm even staggering a bit, much like my dose. And wow does it feel comfy and great. Sometimes I don't think there are any drugs as comfy as gabapentin and pregabalin. This may be controversial but I would dare to say I like the body high more than the body high of MDA/MDMA! And those drugs produce a great body high as we all know.

Considering dropping this tab of LSD I have, but something tells me I should wait til the weekend. So I'll probably forgo that for now.

Hope everybody is staying safe and staying warm (if it's cold where you are)!
