Potentially misplaced or took all of my valium last night.

I'm mainly making this post of shame to ask what I would be feeling if I ingested 360mg of Valium. I had 36 10mg pills last night and took three to relax and internet while laying in bed. I had two brews with the mix. I had the pills hidden in a specific dvd case laying on my bed (I have them wrapped in plastic, eight per, just to make it easy for travelling).

When I woke up in the morning at my usual time (didn't feel groggy at all) I noticed they were missing. I looked around at my normal stash spots and nothing. A friend suggested "maybe you blacked out and took them all." While that seems like a valid suggestion, I honestly have no idea how I would feel the day after taking that high of a dose in the off chance that I did actually take that much and black out, even though I could recite all of the conversations I had with such friend.

So bluelight, do you think I just embarrassingly misplaced my goods, or that I accidentally took them all?

(Also no, there is absolutely no chance that someone stole them)
 
Hmm, well, there's a chance you took them all, but I think you'd still be feeling a bit off today since Valium has a long half-life...or, I know in my case anyway, when I take benzos I tend to forget where I put random things if I move them, so that's a possibility too. Did you try looking around your not normal stash spots? Like, random places like the refrigerator? I mean, I've accidentally put cereal in the fridge as well as keys on various occasions, so anything really is possible.
 
Yeah, I feel pretty normal today, no haziness or anything. I have been tearing my room apart looking to see if possibly I moved it, will likely check other rooms as well as I didn't leave my room the entire time (that I'm aware of). I was just more concerned as to how that high of a dose feels the day after since I never go above 40mg of valium or 2 to 3mg of xanax.
 
I have done the same thing many times too, as p_c said it is more likely that you put them into a new "safe place" then because of the amnesia effects of diazepam you have forgotten where they are.

Is very easily done. If you had taken them all then you would definitely be feeling the effects strongly now, and your original post would be full of typos too. You would most likely be slurring your words a lot too.
 
Thanks for the replies guys, I'm just glad to know that I didn't mistakenly do that huge of a dose. I figured something like this would have happened eventually, but I'm always super careful, so this time really caught me off guard.
 
LOL I used to do this all the time when I took benzos -- come up with the world's most ingenious hiding place, one that is so good that I would inevitably end up hiding the stuff from myself due to the amnesia. My friends and I even had a saying, "there's no hiding place like a xanax hiding place!" :D

You're welcome :) And yeah, no matter how careful you are, sometimes you misplace things on benzos.
 
Haha yeah, I always store my strips in my It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia Season 3 case, but I guess last night I must have seen some other spot that caught my eye. Oh well, I don't absolutely require them, but the day I randomly find 33ish diazepam is going to be a nice one.
 
ha, hope you find them.

apparently blacking out and taking too many is not uncommon, though i never do that. but i almost always hide my drugs in stupid places when i mix large amounts of alcohol + benzo.
 
It'll be a nice day when I do find them :) The thing is, I'm almost certain that I didn't black out because I vividly remember telling someone goodnight, as well as sending a picture to a friend of a certain substance about twenty minutes before falling asleep. But everyone who blacks out always believes they didn't ;) I definitely was making typos during those texts, though.
 
InternetWarrior, I'm going to close this thread now and if you would like to continue with chatting about it you are most welcome to make social and drug related posts in the ???|*!*|The BDD Social and Information Booth|*!*|???

Since your question has been answered I hope you don't mind, if you have any problems with me closing this then just send me a PM and I will consider reopening it :)
