first of all, thanks for everyone who answered my last post

now, heres the thing, xanax seems like it is very, very weak for me.
after taking a small dose of it at home and not feeling nothing, i waited like a week (to make sure no tolerance) and took 1.5mg xanax at home (after a bit of reading it seems like its considered a moderate dose, right? ive read people saying 2mg no tolerance would make one black out). still didnt
feel absolutely nothing. not sleepy, drowsy, uncoordinated, nothing. i felt relaxed though, but not like i wouldnt be relaxed at home...

now, this was like idk 1 or 2 weeks ago, and so yesterday i decided testing it (again no tolerance) when i was at a place where i wasnt so relaxed (school, yea reckless). i always get kinda anxious at school, and i was feeling a bit uneasy at the beginning of the day, so i took 1.5mg xanax. it for sure made me feel
alright, but that was pretty much it. there was no slurred talking, stumbling, drowsiness, no one noticed, and looking back i didnt do any stupid shit and also remember the entire day.

so, my question is, do i have like a natural tolerance to benzos/xanax so it is like i would need idk 4mg to get fucked up and black out (not that i want that haha) or isnt 1.5mg that high of a dose for a newbie??? am i missing something??

thanks.
 
I have a natural tolerance to opiates and benzos it seems.
With no tolerance I took 5mg clonazepam and drank a mickey of gin and didn't black out or stumble around even.
Fuck I'm dumb
 
guess im not the only one... shit being tolerant would really suck... someone please tell me im just not eating the pills the right way

edit- btw could tolerance to alcohol lead to tolerance to benzos? since both are GABA stimulants and stuff
 
Yes, there is a cross-tolerance from benzos to alcohol. I'm not sure of the extent, but I know there is to some degree.
 
Could be the brand, Xanax is a reliever , it does nothing recreational for me , 2mg in a bad situation is bliss, other than that I would just end up tired, you would probly Diazepam more if u have no benzo tolerance and are looking for recreational effects, a lot can come from Diaz until u are eventually amune and then that's when u have problems, Clonaz as well, but if u are at school , what age are you? You shouldn't really be fucking about with this shit , u will end up a junkie, don't mean to be cheeky, I'm telling u from experience ;)

im 17, yea i did read a lot about benzo addiction being something you dont want to fuck with... as of now, i control myself, thks for caring btw

How are you eating them?

i just swallow them with water... would sublingual be better?

may be benzos just arent for me anyway
 
I suggest you don't try and use xanax for recreational purposes, but for as you stated previously "anxiety in school". You don't want to become physically dependent on benzos. It is a territory in which no one should ever reside in; truthfully, benzos are not that fun by themselves. If you take a lot you'll either feel really tired, or black out - neither of which constitutes a pleasurable effect IMO. Just take them for anxiety. You won't accomplish much if your objective is to get high. You'll only find yourself in a hopeless pit of dependence like most people who use them for recreation. I'm prescribed xanax and klonopin and wish I could go back to the psychiatrist who gave me these prescriptions and tell him to NOT give me them. Choosing the benzo route for my panic attacks was the worst choice I could have ever made. They help, but the dependency isn't worth it. Stay safe and welcome to BL.

yea my psychiatrist prescribed them to me and tells me to take them everyday... when i questioned her about addiction she said i shouldnt worry, it would only become a problem after like 10 years of use... go figure, and shes a fucking psychiatrist... for my anxiety i do some cbt exercises and it helps me a lot

i had heard about their supposed recreational use so thought id give it at try, i guess im glad i didnt like it... so i dont have to worry that much about urgeing to take them... ill probably save them for any time i get very anxious (not that often btw)

thanks for response dude
 
Dunno, ask your psych if sublingual may be better? maybe just stick with the cbt & save a year or two, 3 years of addiction
 
i have to take like 35 mg of alp to feel anything, also kpins dont do a thing for me i can eat 60mg of those and be just fine, i like the *snip no brand name vs. generic discussion* 2mg kpins banana flavored
