For the past week ive been experimenting with high doses of gaba into the 3000-5000mg range every other day. I now have no more left....willl I have withdrawal symptoms? Thanks for any feedback!
 
It's possible you will yes. Why did you use everyday rather than breaking it up with some days clean inbetween?
 
You wont experience any withdrawal from a week of off and on use. I've used gabapentin everyday for longer periods than a week and never experienced any withdrawal. I'd say you'd probably have to use the gaba everyday for a month or so to experience withdrawal.
 
^This is pretty much correct. It takes quite a while, for most at least, to develop a dependency on gaba. Certainly is possible, and from what I've heard it sucks, but you shouldn't have much if any at all problems w/ w/d or anything. I've taken high doses of gaba as you have for longer periods of time and did not have any w/d issues upon running out.
