I haven't used dope in over 2 months, came upon gabs again and gave it a whirl. Definitely more than a placebo, and if you mix it with weed and get the timing right, some CRAZY CEVs. I take 3-4.5 grams and that seems to be a good recreational dose. I think this drug gets a lot of shit because most people try 300-600mg, get nothing and write it off as useless. Gotta take more..

Its something that is more fun if you are up and moving around, cuz you get that drunkenness feeling but you don't notice it as much if you are sitting down. Lots of fun.

ODed on dope Wednesday (Narcan) and got a new Vivitrol shot Friday ( got a little sick from it) and coming off crack. Took 8 300 mgs of gabapentin and I feel calmer but not high. Seems to help and definitely isn't hurting.

Wow! I know absolutely nothing about gabapentin. From reading these posts I reckon I'll have to do some investigating!

As for Lyrica- I was prescribed that a while ago- and I know that some people buy that on the black market and say that they like it better than benzos, get more wasted from it compared to benzos- and do so from regular/high amounts!(high-end prescribed amounts!) A few friends(who I trust unreservedly) told me that I should try much higher does than prescribed- I had a go, (with one of these friends) and didn't like the feeling at all! I got a kind of weed paranoia type of feeling from it! (he got nicely wrecked!) Thinking that maybe my experience was a one off/psychological thing- I tried it again(a few times) and got very similar feelings from it every time.

Gabapentin though- I really do know nothing about! It's seemingly in the same family as Pregablin, (Lyrica) which in my case, doesn't seem to mesh very well with me.

I love my gabs
Everyone thinks I'm crazy when I say I like them..they actually help me sleep..I usually dose myself at work an hour before its time to punch out and as soon as I get home I get myself comfy and sleep for a few hours...like some good solid no interruptions sleep
I'm Rx'd 1800mgs/day but usually max out at 2400mgs before they stop working 
My exMIL has been a pharm tech for almost 40yrs...she's heard chatter that they're trying to get gabs moved up on the control chart

For me, Lyrica is a lot stronger than Gabapentin. Lyrica gives me a wacky dizzy, jerky kind of  buzz but in a pleasant way.  Gabapentin is like a milder version of Lyrica.  Both work wonders for WDs and I also find both recreational, esp. if you like disassociates. Which I kind of do.

Someone asked why I liked Gabapentin so much over Lyrica. This has been a debated topic for years and it really does come down to personal preference. Pete said it best once, Gabapentin is like "Being drunk without acting like an asshole". I've met plenty of people that swear by Pregabalin and that's fine. But for me? If you offered me 10g of Gaba or 2g of Lyrica, i'd take the Gabapentin all day long. It's just a smoother, chiller, more relaxing drunk for me.

And yes, it absolutely helps in withdrawals!

The last 3 or so days
I have taken
Around 2100mgs of gabapentin
And I have found that I don't wake-up
Dopesick like I normally would

I have taken around 1800mgs
In full-blown wds
And was surprised at how much it helped

The only thing tho
Is that increased back pain
Can be a side effect
And the second time I took it
I only had taken 10mgs of methadone
And my back hurt like a sonofabitch

I watched a stanford video on youtube and the Dr. said its neigh impossible to OD on. Also only a small part in the digestion track breaks it down, a lot gets wasted. Where as lyrica is metabolised in the bigger gut.

I've been maintaining with it but I don't have an endless supply, so I've been taking 1500mg a day when I don't have dope and I never get WDs. I smoke on it too but sometimes the effects seem to potentiate each other and I get totally wrecked like drunk. Happened to me at the grocery store the other day and my vision was like pulsating (in, out, in, out).

Thankfully I didn't drive.

Been using this to stave off dopesickness 3-4 days in a row and I'm hitting that tolerance where there is now zero recreational value, it only gets rid of the jonesing.

I've gone up to 3600mg with no rec. effects, even when smoking weed as well. Still, its nice to not be sick..

i'm not giving dosing advice but i'm prescribed 3600mg a day and that isn't meant to be recreational either.

Glad you're not sick.

I had heard about gabapentin for w/d from the 'phile, and I asked my doctor to script me some while I was coming off of methadone. Sad to say, it didn't do shit for me :(

Mostly I wanted it for the rls, which was literally almost driving me to the point of madness. All I got was a sort of pill-hangover.

I've heard lots of great things about it, though. Obviously most here love it, but it didn't do a thing for me. That being said, I also wasn't taking a massive dose of it.  It's odd how everyone reacts differently. I even went on to try ropinerole (sp?), and it didn't do shit, either... Man, I've kicked bth a few times since then, and as brutal as that is, methadone was THE worst.
