Phenibut is the absolute worst addiction ever. The problem is taking it for a while sticks you in the good side of mania until one day you just wake up and you're not on the good side of mania anymore. Also, I was a high dose user. Withdrawal lasted for MONTHS. I would rather put down opiates and benzos at the same time again than phenibut, it's so bad it makes poly withdrawal sound desirable.

Crazy that it's left legal as an open secret among semi truck drivers.

I've had my issues with it as well agony-deep

It's just so cheap and available and takes away all my anxiety sooooo welll and makes me not care about all my issues

Not worth the aftereffects though lol

Yeah, 75 bucks for 3 month supply and NOBODY could tell when I was on the shit. When I got pulled over during my phenibut days, the cops would compliment my driving

Yeahhh, the motor impairment just isn't there nearly as much compared to something like alcohol

Not true of the fluorinated derivative 4-fluorophenibut though lol, had to stop using that shit at work when I was in my using-drugs-to-cope-with-soul-destroying-retail-job era

I never tried fluoro back in the day because LM doesn't carry it I don't think. Somehow, I never got into RCs even though they really should have been right up my alley

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Probably for the best tbh, I think if I could I would go back in time and tell myself not to get into RCs (they probably wouldn't listen anyway, they were very very sad and hopeless... wait that's still true lol)

Maybe we do need a /c/drugs for talk like this after all..... idk...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I'd definitely be down to apply for it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I think I would be too but the moderation would have to be really careful to avoid legal implications for the site

Also I might be a shit mod so maybe not :(

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I made the request. I'm pretty familiar with what posts could cause trouble. I'm doing it as harm reduction though, so it'll be a place more designed around keeping people safe rather than an /r/drugs. Banning sourcing talk would be very important

Oh shit nice, alright that's cool

Sorry, I really want to help you mod (if you want help) but I think I would be so indecisive as to be useless

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I'd be down! More the merrier. It's going to be a lot of just deleting stuff to stay on the safe side, so more people will always be better

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Fuck it, I'll give it a try then

Niceeee

I'll fill out the mod application

How do you even get that deep? Tolerance builds up so fast I'd imagine you'd have to be taking it by the ounce after a while.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

It builds up really fast, but it caps out too. Start off around 1.5gs a day and just slowly increase that dose until I had hit 4.5 grams a day and stayed there until I got off. The real issue with it is that Phenibut is the best drug for poly drug use, so once you hit that wall you start using a lot of other shit that makes it more dangerous.
