So since Reddit fcking sucks I return to good old blue lightđź’™
I got a sht ton of alprazolam. My dad, the only person in my life I get along well with, bout to have an open heart surgery soon so my anxiety is at all ….. Drs give me a lot of prescription. The thing is. After 1-2 week T break: 1mg is good for a slight buzz (0.5mg I never feel anything). 2mg gets me real high to the moon (I always take sublingual). Unfortunately, due to my body already knowing the substance the tolerance builds up real quick. Today it was so bad I took 14mg at once, only felt a buzz but wasn’t even drowsy. That sucks hard so I’m burning through my supplies soooo fast. Damn. So I came up with this idea that I did with opiates b4…. boofing. Can I boof Xanax? Any ideas? I will never IV never ever ever. But boofing is much much much superior at least to most opiates. What do u think? I’ll probably give it a shot.
 
I also read on the psychonautwiki u can smoke it. I did chase the dragon in the past but hated it. So much vapor and DoC getting lost. But it says you can get more effect with less dosages. Might worth a try? But I think I’ll try boofing it first. Any thoughts ?

If you took 14mg in one day then your tolerance must be Sky high
I doubt any other roa would make any difference at this point
 
Yea the tolerance for Benzos goes up quickly. But also falls down quickly. I usually take Xanax for 5-10 days then take a week or two break and my tolerance is back to 0. It’s insane. Honestly even 7 days are most often than not enough for me to feel even 1mg again. 14 full days are always, no matter how much or how long I took it before completely resets my tolerance to as if I never did it. Which is great and the reason why I am doing it like this. Taking 2 week break means I can take 2 or 3 mg for days and have the full effect. But the issue is if I have a lot of supply I sometimes unfortunately binge it (especially when the anxiety gets real bad). Even though I always try not to. And when I binge the tolerance goes up so quickly that I end up taking very high dosages and burning through my supplies way too fast. Honestly of course I did feel the 14mg but it was basically the same as if I took 2-3mg after a tolerance break.

This is not normal for me though.

Usually after a week or two of no Xanax I take 2 or 3mg for a couple days, then 4mg for a couple days then 5mg for 2-3 days then stop for 1-2 weeks and then repeat.
I only asked the question bc I was running out of supply and wanted to see why PsychonautWiki says you can inhale it and get more effect for less.

Honestly after thinking all this through though. Xanax has super high bioavailability anyway (80%+ for oral) so I will just stick to taking it sublingual like I always did and always will. (Sublingual for me gives me much more effect than just swallowing it so I suppose sublingual already gives me close to 100% bioavailability). I don’t want to try to boof it and fail it and lose a pill and even less so for trying to inhale it. Even if theoretically you’d get a tiny bit more bioavailability with RoA, you’ll lose some of the vapor so it isn’t worth it at all.
 
Short answer: Yes, you can administer rectally. However, there is no real benefit as the bioavailability of Alprazolam is already pretty high. There is no real advantage to this unless you just have a fixation on the ROA, which is fine obviously. I recommend this to everyone as it´s great HR when folks are trying to find new/alternative ROA´s.

@LifeQuitter Hey, I was literally just in another thread talking to a guy about sedative/hypnotic tolerance/dependence. I don´t want to bullshit you. You´re in seriously dangerous territory regarding your Benzodiazepine usage. People can say I´m fear-mongering, but I´m not. If you´re able to take such a quantity of Alprazolam (Xanax) and still be unsatisfied, it is a sign that your dependence upon Benzodiazepines is encroaching upon serious, life-up-fucking levels.

Tolerance to sedative/hypnotic drugs is not at all linear. The ¨Kindling Effect¨ describes the abstract nature of the process of tolerance, dependence and withdrawal. Sedative/hypnotics broadly refer to substances that work upon the GABA receptor, Alcohol, Benzodiazepines, Barbiturates, Z-Drugs etc. Essentially, every time a person becomes tolerant/dependent upon a sedative/hypnotic drug (14mg Alprazolam in a sitting implies you have done something serious to your tolerance regardless of what you may think) then withdraw and restart the process, everyhing happens faster.

Maybe it took you months previously to work your way up to that high dose of Alprazolam. Maybe it seems like your tolerance resets when you take breaks. In reality, you´re looking at a graph that is oscillating up and down, yes, but when you zoom out, you see that those ups and downs are all occurring within a broader upward trend of your dependence/tolerance.

What is typical, is a person will take a break and feel their tolerance is ¨back to normal¨. They become re-dependent and they often fail to notice that the original months´ long process of becoming tolerant happened in one month the second time, then two weeks the third time. It´s only when people reach the later stages that it becomes glaringly obvious that they are no longer getting a buzz and that there is no longer any grey area between withdrawal and normal. The end stage is that it will take a person 2-3 days of usage following even an extended period of abstinence to be back to exactly the same place they left off from.

Most people then become afraid and decide they need to take action. The problem is that Benzodiazepine addiction is notoriously difficult to get out of. Once you are in this stage, it becomes exceedingly difficult to do what needs to be done on your own accord. Basically, people are often caught in a cycle that is beyond their control by the time they realize the seriousness of their situation.

I´m telling you all of this because you are asking after an alternative route of administration with the goal of boosting the potency of your supply. First off, Alprazolam has a very high oral bioavailability by its nature, so you can´t improve upon that by much, even if you were to theoretically inject it (don´t).

The key to regaining the positive benefit of the drug is not to take more, but to take less. I know, nobody wants to hear that. It´s just the facts. We want to have our cake and eat it too. What is required is less frequency, lower dosages. You need to sacrifice something up front to make the situation better. By just piling more on top, you´re only going to arrive at increasingly diminished returns, severe dependence and a cycle of addiction that will sneak up on you, grab you and drag you to hell.
