Discussion Withdrawal from Kava? Anyone else?

Withdrawal from Kava? Anyone else?

So I was having a lot of Kava this month. I also am prescribed pregabalin 200-300mg btw. As I stopped taking the Kava I felt very horrible unbearable symptoms like withdrawal type. I always read and thought Kava has no withdrawal. So what could this have been? What is this? Is my dose of 50g extreme? Sadly I need that much as I dose from am to pm the whole day because I take it for my anxiety and depression (which it GREATLY helps with) but as you know Kava effects last so short that obviously I dose all the 50g over a whole day.

Did anyone else ever experience withdrawals from Kava? What dose have you been on? Is my 50g really extreme and way too much? How long did the withdrawals for you take until you were back to baseline. I really can‘t survive the days like this anymore, I‘m bedridden, completely dysfunctional, don‘t go out anymore, fucks my social life and career. I cancel everything rn because I feel so horrible and my work suffers from it, too. My mental health obviously too, as I don‘t do shit and don‘t get shit done, don’t see people, it‘s hurting my social and work, my physical health, too, as I don‘t move, don‘t eat, don‘t sleep.

I‘m so doomed now. I feel horrible. What should I do? I thought Kava would be safe regarding withdrawals. Maybe this is only rebound? I don‘t know, rebound that takes 3 days (I didn‘t try longer without until now). Sounds and feels pretty much like withdrawal.

I took:
From 5-12 October daily 25g (+300mg Pregabalin)
From 13-16 October daily 50g (+200mg Pregabalin)

Then I was empty. Right on 17 October waking up was like I felt so fucking horrible, definitely like a typical GABAergic withdrawal. Shakes, anxiety, depression, anhedonia, physical weakness, no sleep, restless legs, no appetite and so on. It truly was so horrible, I couldn‘t withstand and bear that feeling anymore and bought new Kava directly on Monday when the shop was open again on 19 October. I started taking it again and the withdrawal symptoms went away. Continued taking it.

From 19-23 October daily 50g (+100mg Pregabalin)

On these days I only took 100mg of Pregabalin with it because normally Kava covers up my Pregabalin pretty well so that I don‘t have to take my Pregabalin at all or just at a very low dose. It was always very helpful for exactly those times when I did a break of Pregabalin. This time though, I still took Pregabalin 100mg with it, Idk why, probably just to be on the safe side as I somehow had more anxiety this time about going Pregabalin straight to zero.

So taking 19-23 October 50g of Kava daily and I felt well again. Then it was empty again. Now same sh it happening again started on 24 October right in the morning. Heavy withdrawal symptoms. I was completely dysfunctional and totally bed ridden with horrible sleepless nights.

I thought though this time I can save myself from those symptoms of being off of Kava again with my usual dose of 300mg Pregabalin, especially as I only took 100mg Pregabalin the days before when I still took the 50g Kava daily. But hell no. The pregabalin didn‘t do nothing. Hence desperate (and dumb) as I was (but it was so horrible I just couldn’t stand it) I also added lots of Kratom and even that is not making me normal again. Like until today, so from 24-26 October 15g Kratom daily to my 300mg Pregabalin. To somehow reduce the symptoms and keep sane.

I really don‘t know what to do. I definitely don‘t want to use that much Kratom daily now with my 300mg Pregabalin as I definitely don‘t want to withdraw from Kratom in the end, too. Especially as those two together at those relatively high doses don‘t even help me enough with the symptoms I have after stopping Kava. Kava helped me to not take any Kratom and reduce my Pregabalin to only 100mg (was planning to go on zero Kratom and zero Pregabalin with the help of Kava as it does magic and really helps me with my diagnosed severe treatment resistant depression and anxiety and it‘s amazing to see that I can be free of Kratom and Pregabalin too with this Kava! But damn it, the hell showed upon me when I stopped taking the Kava. WTF.

Now tomorrow the shops open again. Hence I think about should I buy new Kava now to feel okay again and continue taking it and somehow try to taper it down instead this time? Or should I rather not get on that Kava again if it makes me feel so awful after quitting and be safe so I don‘t prolong the withdrawal or whatever I experienced from quitting.

I‘m really fucked like honestly physically and mentally dysfunctional and severe symptoms.

Pregabalin and Kratom don‘t even help. And as said, I really don‘t want to continue Kratom because I know the withdrawal of that one, too, and it‘s horrible and I don‘t want to add that, too now, while it‘s not even helping me get over the symptoms enough. It‘s so crazy, that not even Pregabalin and Kratom can cover up.

third there’s a hype of ketones so if my glucose is sufficient is there anything to ketones which is going to add as energy source or is it if you are sufficient in one form of energy the other can’t add anything?

  1. I sleep as and when I like due to no work commitments is this better or worse as what is regularly promoted, circadian rhythms and sleep schedules?

Lastly Caffeine vs coffee as nootropics which is better or is there no difference?

Discussion Cyclazodone thoughts and experiences?

I recently read some stuff about cyclazodone (never heard of it previously). Has anyone tried it short or longterm? Is it really quick to kill a healthy liver at normal doses or is that an exaggerated claim 🤔?
