A little cutty cove in the Northern Pacific.
This may seem like an odd question coming from a long term benzo addict, but tbh, I was never able to control myself. I would pop benzos like candy till I would black out, all the time. Now that it's been years since I was addicted, I have a script for valium that want to get the max amount of euphoric/recretional effect, but I don't feel like popping pills until I black out. Does anyone have any tips or advice on when you know you've had enough and anymore is going to be black out city? I have serious control issues with benzos and I really want to enjoy my small script of valium.
 
Test your tolerance by going with a third of what you have been taking and ending up blacked out, if it isn't enough add one or two. I have a massive xanax script every month and I just try to take my xr then 3 bars max over the day and my memory is alright, def no black outs. Good luck!
 
I'm an addict too. So fucking hard to dose out responsibly with benzos. The more you take, the less you care, so you take more and next thing you know you got 10 voicemails about how you punched your best friend in the face, broke up with your gf, and got arrested. Yes, all true stories
 
If you had such horrible issues in the past... taking any benzos now sounds like a horrible idea. I don't know what would make you think you'd have any more control this time around then before? That's usually not how it works..

I mean.. if you want to go for it anyway, the answer to your question is simple... start out with a low dose and just stop taking them when you feel good.. Though, if it were that easy, nobody would be addicted to anything.. :\

Sounds like what you're trying to do is a recipe for disaster.
 
^pretty much this, you sure you really want hard benzo addiction back in your life?

but if youre dead set on going for it, i find with all drugs this principle holds true: redosing adds more effects (physical especially) without much added euphoria. 1 good sized dose is the best for euphoria, unless you really want your drug to last longer without added euphoria.

so basically, find out what a single safe dose is for you, e.g. how much you can take at once without negative effects, and just use that.

for example, if i take .5mg xanax, i feel okay, then take another .5mg every hour, i get more fucked up without ever getting much euphoria over "okay" however if i just take 1.5mg xanax at once, i feel great.

so basically dose, come all the way down, wait till you absolutely need another dose, dose again. dont redose, redosing also definitely makes physical addiction worse imhho
 
in order to curb by xanax use and abuse, i lowered my dose from 3 a day to 2 a day. i also will sell a bunch as soon as i get them (shhh dont tell anyone!) so that i have a nice wad of cash and what i know is the bare minimum to get me through to the next refil. the way it goes now my dr write 2 rx a year with 5 refills each which works out to 12 mos. why ive been able to keep on bars that long is beyond me, but im not complaining. yeah i could just not take them or have her rx me my minimum, but i like knowing that if i dont choose to sell them, i can get my party on. those things sell so fast where i am i could probably presell my refills in advance.

Benzos - Finding the sweet spot................?

It's a "mirage" now, you found it long ago, you can't find it again and again, nobody on the planet can.
Sorry, I'm "shooting from the hip" and am just trying to tell you what you already know, who knows, it might just work...and you make the right decision ASAP.

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." - Albert Einstein

You know what the outcome is going to be if you take benzo's.
I know it sounds so simple, but in reality it is that simple.

It's up to you man, good luck.

I got back on benzos after years of daily use and or abuse. Sometimes I forget to take them I'm definitely not abusing them anymore and feel no desire to. On the other hand the longer I'm on them the more likely I'll be on them for the rest of my life. I don't know man I went back to them for therapeutic reasons. If your trying to get high off a drug you got addicted to in the past your playing with some real fire. My recommended dose for you is 0 until you come up with real issues that require this med.
