What's the worst comedown/wd drug?

RiseFromRuin said:
Yeah I know the title is kinda strange....but here is what i'm asking....what would be the worst possible polydrug experience you can imagine?

For me, it would be snorting a line of crystal on night two of major opiate/oid w/d. The emptiness in my head, restlessness, and begging for sleep from the w/d...exacerbated by the crystal. It would be something I would not wish on my worst enemy....

have you ever tried that? for me, amphetamines will kick the shit out of opiate withdrawals for a few hours. then when you come down, the opiate WD's slowly start to sink back in, but for a short term cure, amphetamines are great if you're going through opiate WD.

at least, thats my experience.

Once, I stupidly smoked pot in search of relief from my hydrocodone withdrawal. Needless to say, it didn't help, only made me confused and paranoid in addition to already feeling like I'd been hit by a train. Gross.

i agree a hundred percent. pot only makes the anxiety of wd's worse and doesn't help at all.
 
trying to sleep on some non-euphoric sleepingpill while yer friends are doin good speed.
that has got to rate among the more painful experiences.

im fn serious. it hurt me like physically, not beein able to talk, not being able to sleep, just beein able to listen to a bunch of crazy speed-jaws.
(i should add that this acquires you to be homeless, so that there is no where for you to go, there in the middle of the night).

but since this above example aint a proper Combo, then chew on this one: smoking cannabis habitually after a week or so of heavy benzo usage. there has got to be few things that makes your life feel less worth living than benzo wd. add the input booster hasch to that and u got yourself a nice nightmare goin.

I started to get delirium tremens after a night of smoking crack. So on top of the horrible crack come down i had the horrible alcohol withdrawal with the dt's.

wholly fn christ. that sounds like a murderer.

(having worked at a detox clinic i know all about DT, exept experiencing one myself..)

Ya DT's are absolute shit. Ive been through withdrawal from morphine and oxycodone (both at the same time on one occasion) and as bad as that is compared to the DT's it feels like a wet dream.

Now combine that with a goddamn awful crack comedown and your brain is a fucking mess. Thank god for valium is all i can say lol.

Most bad comedowns are linked with LSD+amphetamines IMHO.

Really? Both times i did LSD i did speed at the same time, comedown no worse than normal..

I had my worse comedown after being up for some time on speed, trying to top it up but it not giving any high at all. Made me sick all day, only effects being unable to sleep or eat to make it better. Doing Subutex after the same speed however, completely cleared any comedown.

i'll second that, - i usually use amphetamines when kicking downers. really helps improve mental fortitude, confidence and mood. The comedown however can sometimes suck.


Withdrawing from poppy pods is supposed to be really bad and so is fentanyl. But then again ct withdrawal from antidepressants or benzos suck pretty hard too. I would say the worst comedown of all time is dexedrine - far far worse than my comedowns from other amphetamines or coke.
 
Ususally when Im coming down off of ecstasy Im feeling all drained out and tired. You cant even compare it with the comedown off of coke or crack. A week ago me and a friend stayed up all Saturday night into Sunday morning blowing rails. Once the sun came up I felt so cracked out walking back to my house because I kept thinking everyone who was out going for a walk or doing yard work knew I was cracked out. I had huge bags under my eyes and my mouth was so dry. Its funny to think about it now but when your in the moment you just want to die.
 
GBL.... I swear to God.

Immagine alcohol, benzo shakes, opiate flu like nausea, loss of appetite, paranoia, fear, buckling knees, bright lights... even dosing enough to "get your sick off" would have to be AT LEAST a full dose. you are knocked out, wake up and there it is again.

have some Benzo's and a Priest on hand. I am thankful my parents took pity on me. I MIGHT avoid rehab, if I'm lucky... then again, I need it. Imagine being cracked out on straight speed bomb pills, with the shakes, the shame, same emotional distress, headache, running shit...

I'm on day 2 now. Thank God for Ativan... I am JUST barely not shaking and sick.

DO NOT DO GBL

mdma and its analogues = worst comedown



opiates = worse wd even though benzo wd is no walk in the park almost as bad except no real pain


try GBL 4ml every 2 hours for a week... then just wait 3 hours one time...

better have a bottle of benzos handy
 
This involves no WD's but the day after a night MDMA, Meth and Alcohol really make your emotions run wild as well as feeling physically like a zombie.
 
I dunno about the LSD + Coke thing. I've done an entire night of tripping balls of shrooms and snorting huge rails every 45 minutes, and my come down wasn't absolutely terrible. But perhaps LSD would have made the come down worse as opposed to shrooms?

Keep in mind I had a high coke tolerance back then, don't try that at home kids.

FUCK I ALWAYS feel like such a bag of shit driving home at 7am when everyone else is just getting up and starting a new day, and i just feel cracked out. i try to avoid doing that now.
