i take anywhere from 6 to 30 2mg xanax bars at a time and only for 5 days a month and take the rest of the month off how can i ever get my tolerance down
 
Um, stop taking that many xanax bars at a time? There's absolutely NO reason to be taking 60mg of alprazolam, ever. It's a waste of medication. Stop taking that many at once, that's the only way you'll be able to get your tolerance down. And, if you aren't feeling any benzo withdrawal the rest of the month, you aren't dependent on them either, and those doses are really unnecessary.
 
it takes me 6 to feel anything and i only take 30 on accident i black out or i don't feel anything so i take more and i know i have a problem so i'm going to have someone else hold on to them for me and never take more than 10 but i'm wondering if there's something i can take to lower my tolerance or something like grapefruit juice that will potentate the xanax
 
No, there really isn't anything you can do to get that benzo euphoria back except for a very long period (years) of abstinence. I used to take huge doses of Xanax too and I suffered blackouts like you. Nothing I paired with benzos made them any better. I just passed out faster.
 
Idk, I used to take 10 - 25 Xanax (alprazolam) 2mg Bars a day. It eventually just became my regular state of mind. The only way I would get fucked up was when I would mix it with opiates back then. And I used opiates everyday. So I would pop about 5-10 2mg bars in the morning Shoot a nice shot of tar (around .1 or .2) or Would snort 2 80mg Oxycontins and take the bars. And smoke a lot of really dank weed, hash, kief. The way I managed to always stay fucked up and but still have a tolerance was to mix it up a bit. I would take different types of bars like the yellow's or the Green's or the cut backs or the smooth backs. I would switch around as they all have different time releases. Or take foot balls (the 1mg's) or other benzos like Valium (but I would have to take so many of them to even feel anything I barley ever messed with them) or K-pins (clonazepam) and so forth, I never really cared for ativan (lorazepam) because it always made me really depressed after long term use. I would sometimes take them and let them dissolve in my mouth with a soda and then swallow it for it to instant release or just take a bunch of them or break them in half, chew them up. With opiates I eventually just started slamming them, and so I stayed high. But this is about benzos I'm getting off track.

Well anyways hope I helped.

I am in no way telling to take that many or to combine opiates and benzos its a very dangerous combination and you have to have a high tolerance to both of them to do what I was doing.

I am on the Methadone Maintenance program now, and still take Alprazolam (Xanax) regularly as I am waiting to get prescribed. But not near as many as I use to take. I will ussually take 2mg's in the morning and 2mg's at night. But if I ever get anxiety or a panic attack I would take another 2mg's. I try not to abuse them anymore, because they are a hell of a drug to come off of, especially when you are on the amount that I was with the amount of Opiates I was doing.

Good luck, and BE SAFE.
 
i actually inject oxycodone and take xanax and soma but i try not to do them at the same time so i give myself some time to lower my tolerance a little
 
good luck. when i fuck up badly ill take 20-40 mg of alazapram in my sleep and i DO NOT want to at all, and it causes withdrawal symptoms as soon as im out; in the extreme.
anyone who believes they can out smart chemistry is a fool of the highest (think charlie sheen) order.
 
I can relate to that thing that happens with benzos, where you slowly start popping them and then all of a sudden have finished the script. Probably has something to do with memory-impairment. But I also agree that those doses are waaaay too big. Even if I had that much I wouldn't take it.

i gotta say i was really hoping for something that would allow me to take less xanax for anxiety relief cause i don't like taking so much cause i end up blacking out a lot of the time
 
I'm able to keep my Ativan usage under control because I also vaporize hash with it. I'm prescribed 2mg Ativan twice daily, but I keep that to 2mg once daily to try to keep the benzo tolerance low. My motto has always been "less is more." :)

Does anyone get similar results?
