Modern humans must learn how to relate to psychoactives
responsibly, treating them with respect and awareness,
working to minimize harms and maximize benefits, and
integrating use into a healthy, enjoyable, and productive life.

DOSE:
300 mg insufflated Pharms - Gabapentin (pill / tablet)
BODY WEIGHT: 105 lb
I have been trying to cut down on drinking due to chronic pain. I was prescribed gabapentin 300 mg at bedtime. I have inflammatory bowel disease so meds often times don't make it into my system.

I decided to snort the gabapentin (capsulized powder) and I noticed an effect right away, after only a half capsule. It offered me calmness and focus. That may be what my screwed neurosystem needed after self-medicating with ETOH.

I will try this again.
