Let's just start off by saying I know hardly anything about benzos. I had read up and been told that they chill you out very nicely, and won't just put u to sleep if you're already wide awake during the middle of the day.
I've taken 2mg twice before, once on a coke comedown and another 2mg on a shroom comedown.

So yesterday I'm bored and have a little bit of weed that i won't be able to get until about 8p.m. so I decided I'll go all out and take 4mg of xanax and chill out and watch some movies. So I head to the medicine cabinet and take 8 .5mg pills all at once orally. I threw in "Dazed and Confused" and remember watching the begining "sweet emotion ~ Aerosmith" scene and thats it.

I just woke up and my mom told me that she found me laying on a pile of smashed potato chips and when she told me to clean then up I couldn't do it. She then said her and my dad had to walk me up the stairs cuz i was stumbling everywhere. They searched my wallet and found a friend of mine's ID (i'm only 17 so i use his id to buy cigs) and i was so fucked up i told them why i used it.

Basically i wouldn't recommend doing this to anyone. If you're going to use xanax, just use it as a sleep aid after a roll, trip, coke binge, etc. Any ideas on what went wrong and why what seemed like a small dose did so much?
 
Alprazolam (xanax etc) is nothing but a sleep aid / comedown accelerator for me. It's not recreational in the least, unless you get a kick out of stumbling and drooping and making no sense. Benzos in general aren't fun. At least alprazolam doesn't last for more than a few hours (unless you take 4mg).

But, it is damn useful if it's 3:00am and you're still tripping and you want some sleep.

Ambien is much more interesting as a recreational experience (from the little I've read and experienced so far).
 
ambien having more recreational value than xanax? lol. If your going to take xanax then all you need is a 1mg bar. I find that with 2 I'm waking up wondering how I got where I am. 1mg + 3 shots sets me for the night, very fucked up, kinda forgetting things, stumbly, but conscious
 
You took too much.. Some people are super sensitive to Benzodiazepines. I've taken up to 12mgs of Xanax, and I was still coherent for a good while. Then I went to sleep. Personally, I think Benzodiazepines are weak compared to some of the "strong" depressants that used to be available.
 
Okay, so it's been eluded that you took far too much Xanax. Now, I note this thread has been cross posted in OD, so unless you choose to redo this report and make it conform to the Beayoootiful Forum Guidelines, ( ;) )then I'm going to close this, as I don't see it going anywhere else in here. I have the sneaking suspicion PhreeX will come along and close your OD post as well, I would suggest that you might want to ask more questions of this nature in somewhere like Drug Basics?

Here is the link to this thread in OD, if you've got a comment to add until then!

To the original poster, as a side thought, you might like to check out the Benzo's FAQ here, it's quite a nice comprehensive read :)
