Benzos Xanax before Cocaine

First post here, have read for a while but was after some feedback on a specific question.
The question has been asked before but I was after some more specific ideas.

I have used coke for well over 10 years, occasionally to start with, probably too much recently.
Especially as the quality available now (albeit for £100/g) is pretty amazing.

It has got to the stage now though where it is unenjoyable as the almost instant anxiety i get after even the first line just takes over any fun.
(Pacing around, oh no whats my heart doing, etc etc pretty much overides the buzz)

I got some Xanax from an internet pharmacy as I heard it gets rid of this shit, especially when it's time for bed and you can't be arsed with the panicky bollocks for an hour or two.

I tried a couple the other night, thought it was a pretty shit buzz, but could see how it would get rid of anxiety.

Anyway, was bored, so had a couple more this afternoon (about 3mg at 1pm), fell asleep half an hour later (of course?), woke about 3pm

A friends stopped by with some coke, so we had a couple of lines, and the first thing i have noticed is the usual coke buzz is there but none of the anxiety.

Admitidly the coke buzz is a little dulled, but still fine, but it's great not pacing around like a nob which i would normally be doing after the coke.

So the question is, is the combo safe? A few searches give conflicting info on this.

Aside from the obvious danger of overdoing the coke, if one is sensible about both the amount of Xanax & Coke, could this be a solution??

Cheers D
 
Considering that I know quite a few people who take benzos after coke to help them come down faster/smoother/whatever I'd say it's safe (none of them have noticed any negative side effects) although mixing drugs is, of course, normally recommended against but from my friends experience it's been alright so far.
 
i've noticed benzos before coke diminish the effect of the coke. take the smallest dose possible before just to get rid of the anxiety and take the rest after your last line/hit/shot to kill the comedown
 
Yeah, alprazolam is totally active in dosages as low as .25mg. I would find the lowest dose that takes away the anxiety and use that, and then keep your use of both drugs to a minimum.

I know coke is a very fiendish substance, and have had serious problems with it in the past, so I feel a little silly saying "just don't do either", cause that's probably not going to change your mind or be very helpful in anyway. However, if you're using cocaine in a habitual manner (once a week or more), than I would really think about trying to find a safer substitute, especially if you are going to be taking Xanax (or whatever sedative this online pharmacy sold you-don't just assume its the real deal). Xanax is highly addictive and even with short term binge use, you can develop withdrawal symptoms, including seizures which can obviously be fatal. Even if you're not trying to get high on the Xanax, but instead just taking it to ease the anxiety caused by cocaine, you still run this risk. Especially if you suddenly decide to stop using the Xanax (as cocaine lowers the seizure threshold).

Perhaps try a less intense stimulant. I find D-amphetamine to be a lot more satisfying than cocaine in the long run. It doesnt provide the intense rush and short lived euphoria that coke does, but it's not as fiendish, lasts a lot longer, and IME it's a lot less anxiety producing than coke is.
 
Yep all of the above, the worry with benzo's becoming apart of your cocaine usage regularly isn't danger from the combination but rather the fact that you add another addiction to your arsenal of habitual drug use.
 
I know some people that enjoy the pacey, adrenalin high.

I take Xanax on a daily bases, It will take anxiety away from any drug, just stick to small doses, because you will gain a tolerance very fast, and you will eventually need to take large doses to work for you, which is where it nips you in the ass and makes you start forgetting EVERYTHING you do in your day, and leads to serious dependence, Your also getting it from a website? Is is generic? or is it the real deal? Generic Xanax and Name Brand Xanax are different(Well at least they were for me) The name brand is far superior(Doctors will tell you that it is the same, It's not) Also try not to take more then you need, the effects last about 6-7 hours, so don't pop another pill an hour after you popped the first. Good luck, Hope everything works out for you!

I know it is possible to order benzo's online because I know a family member has told me a few years ago he was ordering valium online for well under a buck a pill, even though it is illegal and is considered importing a scheduled drug, all they do in canada if they find it is send you a letter to tell you to stop ordering "blah blah blah" substance unless you have a pharmaceutical license. But he's told me that now it's much harder to import, because all of his trys in the more recent past have been seized in the mail. This could however be because they have him in on a list now though, which would make sense, so they check all his packages from suspicious countries.

Either way it's still not a good idea, depending on the country you live in it can very easily smack you back in the face and land you in jail if caught, where as some countries like I'm assuming Canada because of my family members experience are more lenient if the package is caught and just seize it and send you a letter telling you to stop lol.

Don't get me wrong though, it's still against the law even in canada and thus can land you in jail.
 
personally, whenever im doing coke i will not even take a line without benzo's or opiates around, i CANNOT deal with not only the comedown but the anxiety from the blow. what you have to worry about it not only a coke addiction, but a benzodaizapam addiction, which both at the same time will be a world of pain
