    Baclofen Benefits

    I had the carb cravings really bad, too. I just really, really needed to stay awake. L-glutamine does wonders curbing the carb cravings - have you tried it yet?
    Go before that fire there, at the altar of your heart
    That fire of who you really are and be consumed by it fully
    Surrender everything into the fire of that love until you are one with that love. You ARE that love.
    Tilak Pyle Altar of the Heart

      Baclofen Benefits

      I have some for AL craving, but it didn't work for that. I will try it for the carbs. I have seen here that people take crazy amounts - so I guess it is safe. Thanks for the tip. I will start tomorrow before I go to the store to buy more cookies....

        Baclofen Benefits

        It works at the right dose

        After a year on too low of a dose I am finally back to a good dose and feeling all the same benefits again that I forgot existed. It works, but it has to be the right dose.

            Baclofen Benefits

            My updated benefits list - Being on Baclofen for over a year...

            I had to go up to 220 hit indifference again this time then went back down rather fast to 140 with +20-40 as needed and feeling all the benefits again. I am rather surprised that the 140 now is feeling so powerful again. But I am also taking all the MWO supplements at the same time.

            I wanted to update my own personal benefits list again having been on it for over a year:

            Makes me feel like I can deal with life at least 300-500% better.
            Anxiety is reduced again to lifetime lowest levels. Example: 8 before baclofen to 2 or less average after.
            Not tired in the day at all and no need for coffee. I went from NEEDING 4 shots of espresso to needing NONE. (However anything above 150 I have to take MASSIVE caffeine just to stay awake.)
            Open to feedback 80% better AT LEAST, not instantly defensive. (Same as before)
            Can speak my mind powerfully.
            Can't mask my B.O. to having no B.O. even after working out. Big plus for me.
            Mutes the pleasurable benefits of alcohol by around 80%.

              I am not taking the Kudzu or the topamax, I am taking Buspar as well which I find works synergistically with baclofen (at least for me).

                I tried topamax and had horrible side effects so quit taking it. For the last 2 years, I've been consuming a bottle of wine per night - sometimes more. I'm needing help in a desperate way. Reading this post leads me to believe that Balcofen is a wonder drug!

                Is it through perscription only?

                  Emcee,

                  I tried just about everything before I tried Baclofen, including Campral/Naltrexone and the whole 7 weeks to sobriety protocol with lots of Glutamine and Kudzu. Nothing else worked well for me. Baclofen worked right away for me personally.

                  You can check out this thread to find out more information on it. There are doctors here that can help you or you can get it yourself but please read all the posts carefully as you have to start super low dose and work your way up very slow and never go off it abruptly!

                    After having 3 days straight of 1-3 beers, I had to go back up to 220 again. I think I'll stay at the 220 for a while. Indifference is rather nice, and titerating down too fast, NOT so nice.

                      Yeah. It drives me crazy how often I have gone up and down and all around. But it is what it is. Indifference IS rather nice, isn't it? woop!

                        It absolutely is, so I will be staying at this dose for a whole week and only then perhaps going back down.

                          One last benefit and I am smaller than I used to be:

                          Tried to max out my squating at the gym. Squated 600 lbs. for 2 reps. 12x45ers. I couldn't put any more weight on the bar so I guess there is no max.

                          Feels kind of like the movie Limitless to me. Has anyone seen that?
