I'm just curious to see if anyone has experienced emotional anhedonia after phenibut withdrawal. I abused phenibut and was using around 32 grams a day, 4 times a week, for about 3 months. 28 days ago I decided to stop using phenibut because I wanted to quit using it. But after my 6th day into withdrawal all my emotions went numb, I can't feel happy,sad,anger, or any emotion. Will this probobly pass with time? And does this seem like dopamine depletion.

You stopped using it because you wanted to quit using it?  Seems like a valid reason.  Schopenhauer would be proud.

 

Did it take 22 days for withdrawal to start?  Gaba plays a role in depression that's for sure.  So I would try ginseng and ginkgo, natural antagonists, to get you back on track.  Also something to cut back on dopamine, perhaps indian snake root?  The reason for that is phenibut can downregulate dopamine receptor sites

The withdrawal started about 2 days after I stopped using phenibut but I had anxiety/insomnia which lasted until about the 6th day of withdrawal. After that I noticed I had no more emotion, its weird its like a switch for emotion just went off.Anyways, thanks I'll look into the natural antagonists.
