Benzo Tolerance?

Just wondering, how bad do benzo tolerances get? Do some people have a natural tolerance to them or does any other drug cause a tolerance to benzos? I've had a script for benzos for around 8 months and from the very beginning, I never really got much outta them unless I took a decent amount of them, and now i have to take around 15-30 mg or so of klonopin to get fuckedup to the point that I want, and i usually just endup feeling pretty drunk feeling, or if i am drinking, i can drink more. Usually I become more social, and maybe endup doing stuff i wouldnt do when sober but would probably like to do (ie: going out to a bar or club or something by myself, etc) The only times i really can think of being obnoxiously fuckedup is when i drink enough to be annoying while on benzos. I get a decent prescription, so it lasts for a little while, and I dont have any kind of addiction or withdrawal or even a craving for em, just do em every once in awhile till theyre gone, then it doesnt really matter that theyre not there.
 
I began taking clonazapam (k-pins) awhile ago and the few first ones really, really got me nicely. After taking them for a week or so though, i developed a quick tolerance to them, and I havn't been able to get the tolerance down since. Take benzos onily occasionally, would be my best suggestion.

One more time, benzo tolerances are VERY hard to bring down, so don't get them up there in the first place.
 
after taking xanax every few days for someting near two years (as perscribed) i could take 3mg or so without really getting much effect. i woudl calm me down (which is all i needed it to do), but lost recreational potential at lowere doses.
