How A Schizophrenic Drug Addict Reclaimed His Life With Iboga

One of the craziest stories. He took over 200 research chemicals. I did 50 or so.

Talked to someone earlier. That person had me convinced I basically didn't need meds. But I snapped out of it. I definitely do need meds at least for now.

Also I have to plan a class for tomorrow. I hope my student doesn't realize how depressed I am.

Went to Value Village and found some old textbooks. Sociology, physics, and this weird one about 'new science' including a lot of technical **** for computing. Looks interesting af. My sister and I are a couple of nerds. I want to learn EVERYTHING. There was an economics textbook but it was from 1999 and I figure some of it is a little out of date so I didn't get it.

I have a plan that I'm going to try to finish my third assignment for my course this weekend. Then I can register for the exam and do it in early April. So my plan is for the rest of April to take some time to relax, do some LinkedIn learning, crocheting, etc. Start fresh new courses in May. Calculus and Java.

Finished question 1 of assignment 3! Started working on question 2 but I need to reread some stuff from my textbook and it's already almost 9pm so I'm going to call it a night, finish question 2 and question 3 tomorrow.

I'm excited to get stuff done.

Yeah it is a lot. Is that how much you're taking every day?

I was feeling bad so I took phenibut, xanax, weed, kratom and extra vyvanse. I'll stay up until 3-4am to break this cycle and escape my reality.

I haven't played guitar in a while but I found a song to play. I think I'd be able to start things better with Dexedrine boosters - So I'll have to see what my doctor says. I just need to quit weed before the panic attacks sneak up on me.

No, I haven't been, but my pdoc just prescribed 2 mg tablets to take as needed. I was wondering if it's just gonna knock me silly.

I should also add that I do have significant anxiety as of late and can't seem to deal with it without benzos.

I also just think that I should get off of benzos. My pdoc seemed to agree. So I don't know what to do basically.

Yeah 2mg is like a "Xanny bar". 0.5-1.5mg for me kills my worst panic attacks. That's all I need. I take 0.25mg for rare anxiety states or to help me sleep.

Even if your anxiety isn't often, 2mg is an overkill - If the anxiety is often, the overkill is a waste of precious GABA receptor intolernace.

Psychiatry has no knowledge of harm reduction in using meds and addiction centres have no knowledge about it either (Because people are going to use drugs no matter what - Nothing is 100% safe). The less you take and the less often you take, the better. When tolerant, taper off slowly just like with any drug.

Well, do you have a pill cutter? My advice is to take quarter pills. I've been in lots of situations with Klonopin, having little, having lots, forced to go cold turkey, etc. I would have chosen to stay on it the rest of my life despite the brain fog, rather than going through cold turkey. So, it's best to keep your tolerance down.

I opened the mystery card and it was just a nice 'spring is coming' small talk thing by someone who still won't give her name. So much for that. There's no shared memories, or any identifying information other than the reference to the hospital.

I slept a lot today. Maybe I'll fall asleep earlier tonight.
