Alright so basically I was prescribed Lorazepam (Ativan) 1mg/day for 2 months when I started Cipralex (Escitalopram). 1mg of Ativan was perfect for me because it would instantly relieve anxiety while also giving me a decent benzo high. After 2 months, my doc switched me to Clonazepam because he said there is too much potential for abuse with Ativan. The first month, I would take Clonazepam 1mg once a day to help with anxiety and it worked quite well in that regard. After I got my 2nd refill I just gradually stopped using it and only had 6 pills over a period of about 6 weeks.
At this point I was pretty much done with Benzo's and did not have any withdrawal effects at all throughout the few months that I was taking Ativan and Klonopin. I went off Klonopin pretty much cold turkey and would only take a pill once a week on stressful days.
Last week I got my hands on a few Xanax 2mg bars. The first day I took a bar and literally knocked out, woke up at 7 am and dredded wasting the pill. The second day I took the Xanax bar, it was a complete shit show. I have barely any recognition of the day and apparently I had no balance whatsoever and was walking like I was drunk. The 3rd bar was a bit more controlled because I just took it and watched some shows.
So fast forward to yesterday, I saw my bottle of Klonopins and thought "hey, I haven't used these in a while and probaly won't need them, let me try getting high off them". So first I took 600mg of Gabapentin (I've been taking it to potentiate Benzo's ever since Ativan and it DOES work. I think the Gabapentin I took on my 2nd day of Xanax probably put me over the edge and caused me to get that wasted). After the 600mg of Gabapentin I took 3 1mg pills of Klonopins. I waited about an hour and took another 300mg Gabapentin along with 3 more 1mg pills of Klonopins. I still didn't feel anything so I added a .5mg Ativan pill to try to give it a "kick start".
All-in-all I had 900mg Gabapentin, 6mg Klonopin, 0.5mg Ativan (and about 1.5g of weed, which I always take even with Ativan/Xanax) in a span of about 90 minutes. During the rest of the day, I did not have any anxiety whatsoever (felt like nothing could phaze me) which is great since that's the purpose of Benzo's. However, I did not experience any of the "high" I usually get from Ativan/Xanax. None whatsoever. I thought if I took that much Kpins I would feel at least some high but absolutely nothing.
So I guess my question is: Does Clonazepam (Klonopin) have any recreational "benzo high" at all or is it strictly just for anxiety relief (which I would rate it #1 out of the 3 benzo's I've had)? Is there a certain dose that might trigger a benzo high? Or should I just forget about the Kpins and only take 1 once in a while like I used to? I have not felt any withdrawal symptoms whatsoever when I stopped taking Ativan, when I cut down severely on Kpins, and after my 3 day Xanax binge. I could literally never take a benzo again and I wouldn't really care/have the urge to take one. So what do you guys think?
