Etizolam dosin question

[BabyGurl3171]

I ordered 20 x's 1 mg etizolam (blister packed).
My question is I can take 20 mgs of Xanax or 150 mgs diazepam and just feel good, not all screwed up. So, what should I start with on the etizolam? And does it have enough of a half life to just keep dosin 1 mg say every hour til I feel good? Thanks!

My advice would be give up now as you will end up with a tolerance like mine.

Unfortunately I've tried to give up benzos many times. I'm afraid it's one addition I'll have for a long time. That's why I ordered them, bc what I'm rx'd (and have been for 4 years) doesn't last but a week even tho it's a month supply...

I feel the same way! It's a really bad thing to get hooked on and absolute hell to come off of.

Ive been trying and failing to give them up since july 2010.

Ive had breaks before of between 4-8 weeks benzo free and then i just slip back off the wagon again.... Im trying everything i can to stop completely but its seems near impossible.

Even my drug councillor says that my goal to be Benzo + (completely drug free) is a huge mountain to climb as ive used various substances for escape purposes throughout my drug taking life.

Ive used various substances for over 18 years now.

I'm sorry. I'm goin thru the same thing. I try my damnest to quit, freak out and run for the benzos. I can give up opiates like nothin but benzos? Ha!
I feel sorry for anyone that has to experience benzo wd's. Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Hell I had wd's with no benzos left and the money I spent just to get my hands on some was rediculous. I know I need to quit, I'm just not there yet.
