In my mind. The choices are many, the consequences
Sorry, but I have another question. I drank 250 ml of WGFJ and waited 45 mins on an empty for days stomach...minus pills lol.
So after the 45 mins I took 12 mg Xanax (usually can go to 14 with no black out). Sat here for an hour feelin nothin.
So then I take 10 mg of Ambien, chewed and swallowed. Hour later or so another 10 mg of Ambien chewed and swallowed.
I've been up on my crutches to see if I needed a boost, nothin. So I settle in my fav recliner and browse NetFlix til I find a decent horror/thriller. Cuddle up with hubs (ok, fiance lol) and watch. Just waitin but nothin comes.
I have 2 questions:
Best ROA for Xanax (ie: swallow whole, chew, sublingual, snort)
Best ROA for Ambien (same actions as above) How would each be absorbed the most?
And, I guess I had three questions, is it safe to redose? So far 20 mg Ambien (had 50 mg before with slight effect) and 12 mg Xanax (usually go up to about 14 mg).
Thanks for answers, I don't wanna over do it and OD! I think I'm good on Xanax, I wanna save some for the days ahead so I don't have WD's. But what about the Ambien ROA and all the. Thanks!
 
You took 450mg of diazepam over the last three days from memory. You've probably experienced an increase in tolerance.

I don't understand why you just wasted 12mg of xanax like that when you are going into a period of benzo shortage.

You should have used them sparingly for withdrawal instead of chasing a high.
 
12 mgs of xanax? You have that high of a tolerance? Sounds like you need to take a break and taper down on the bezos sweetie before you hurt yourself =/

I know I am a severe addict. They were just sittin there. I'm biyin more as we speak amd I'm just gonna have to taper myself with all the will power I can muster. No more buyin off the street or sweatin it out til I get my refills. I have to do this bc what I keep buried deep, deep inside is only festerin more as I shut out the feelins with drugs. Granted I will probably induldge occassionally but this daily thing has got to go! Thanks for everything from all of you!
 
Trust me.

I was scripted 12mg xanax, 120mg valium and 2mg rohypnol a day.

I know well the scourge of Benzo addiction.

Thankfully after a long taper with pregabalin and clonazepam I am now only on very rare occasions indulging in my script of triazolam and alprazolam.
 
What would be a good tamperin schedule? I'm afraid to ask my psych bc he'll either cut me off right there, yeah he's a dick like that or he'll tamper me off and never give me any benzos which I honestly need bc I have gone from panic/anxiety to agoraphobia now unless hubs is with me. He is the ONLY person i trust to take me out into the world and protect me and reassure me durin an attack i am not dyin, it's panic.
So, in short I can't risk losin my benzos altogether. What a mess I've created.

What is your usual daily dose?

RX'd? 15 mgs a day. 5 mgs in the mornin and 10 mgs at night. But rec, I take as many as i can a day. The 150 mg a day X's 3 days was a severe binge. Usually I abuse up to 50 - 75 mgs a day.
On a side note hubby has taken my "stash" and is givin me 4 mgs of Xannies a day now in 2 doses. We'll see how ugly this gets...

EDIT: The top paragraph about 5 & 10 mgs and the abuse of 150 mgs & 75 mgs was diazepam not Zannies.

This is what you realllllllllly need to try and work on.
It starts out taking them as needed but soon that just becomes take them everyday then that becomes take them all day every day... and you know the rest, i've read your other posts!

you need to take the initiative to start a taper schedule; A very important step in that process is going to be cutting out the recreational use. Yes its going to suck, and you're not going to feel great but the alternatives aren't any better.
Try to restrict your use to when its really needed, not just when you want to feel good...
 
Well, it's 4:26 am and I didn't abuse any benzos today. Yay me! I feel a bit edgy, body aches and people are just randomly pissin me off...can you say mood swings? Oh and again, it's almost 4:30 am and I can't sleep minus the like 14 or so pills I take.at night...this is gonna suck!
 
Yeah man (er, girl. I should pay more attention)that sounds like a shitty time =\. After reading your OP and stuff it sounds like taking a break like that is a good idea (I haven't read any previous posts, so I dunno how you've been or anything). Good luck feeling well and getting sleep. It's 4:05 am and I took some muscle relaxers and hydrocodone for the purpose of getting to sleep and it's not working =(. Not being able to sleep sucks
