4mg Klonopin + 40 or more ounces of booze

[tehk0re]

Greetings,

I've made this thread because I deeply need some insight.

I was recently a victim of domestic violence, and my partner was on 4mg or more of klonopin (he ate an entire 2mg tab bubble pack the day before) and drank an entire bottle of champagne followed by over 2 pints of beer. Upon taking all of that, he kinda lost his shit and flipped out on me. Ended up fighting, really intensely. I ended up calling the police.


Regardless,
I can't help but feel as if the combination really influenced these action. Their came a point where he was NOT himself. Since the altercation he's claimed he can't remember anything. Blacked out.


Can anyone relate to a situation like this with black outs?
With this drug cocktail?

He was 6'0 and about 220lbs. If those figures help at all.


Thanks!

Yep, if he doesn't have a tolerance it is very likely he blacked out. 4mg klono alone is almost enough.

Losing his shit is def from the benzos... When blacked out people become really fucking stupid (NOT DEFENDING HIM just saying thats exactly what benzos and booze do)

Also depending how much (seemed like a lot) klono he ate the previous day and the time, it could still be affecting him

Take care

ive noticed that even in 1 mg of klonopin, i find myself having a difficult time remembering things..not a blackout but it definitely impairs your memory big time..on 4 mgs, i wouldnt remember much of anything i dont think..one of the big drawbacks to this drug as the anti-anxiety effects are awesome..

My reply may be controversial but I am female and this is my feeling.

IF he never showed ANY tendency towards violence before

AND he promised never to do a benzo/ alcohol binge EVER again (understanding that if your experience ever happened again the relationship would be over and you'd press charges

Then I would forgive him and not consider it domestic violence (since he's out of his tree)

If you feel like you can't move past it though and still feel threatened, you have a right to end it or go see someone with him.

Good luck.

Edited to add in direct response to your question, frankly I would be more surprised if he did NOT black out. I would be inclined to believe him.
Also alcohol has an effect based on body composition but drugs are different. 4mg klonopin may completely knock out a 300lb tolerance naive man but a 95lb woman may barely feel it.
