Benzos benzos on a 13 hour flight.

If you have bars, I cut them vertically the long ways down the bar first then it's easier to just break off a section because the score is still easily visible.

This is a great technique, thanks! I've only had a bar once, but I couldn't dose lower than 0.25mg since I would cut them in to quarters first, then cut that 0.5mg in half, but this is a great tactic for on-the-go dosing. I usually just use 0.5mg or 1mg footballs, the round/oval shape makes it very easy to titrate dosage.
 
I guess there's just something about those rectangular bars I'm still drawn to and not repulsed by, I don't fully understand it. I also get the 1mg blue footballs but never even think twice about using the bars instead despite making it more difficult to dose on a microgram level. I don't use a pill cutter because I'm so used to breaking up those bars even to 1/8ths, but for daftpunk who's on a taper down at 3.5mg diazepam this would definitely not be advisable, so best err on the side of caution and use a pill cutter.

A friendly reminder that alprazolam is active at 125ug, a little goes a long way, a lot further than you give it credit when you're dosing judgement is clouded by anxiety or benzodiazepines already in your system.
 
Cutting down the middle seems a little difficult without it breaking into 40 different pieces. with the big green ones I can see it. The small white bars must be a pain.
 
^ Agreed, I don't like how small the 2mg bars are for the high dosage they contain. The smaller size is ideal for sublingually or intranasally dosing large amounts, but don't offer much less benefit. The footballs are much larger, I can easily cut them in to 8 different pieces with a pill cutter, then cut those in half if I were so inclined.

HR warning: Don't snort Xanax, just saying that it's more effective to do so with less filler.
 
Ya. I like footballs better ofr that reason. ALOT easier to gage the proper dose.

Most people I know like bars better because there pretty and lil wayne mentioned them on a song..lol.
 
I've heard of some ridiculous reasoning behind taking drugs with higher potencies like Xanax: "bro, I don't wanna take four pills of this peach football! That sounds dangerous, I just like to take one bar..."

To the street abuser, a pill is a pill is a pill, which is why they should cease production of 2mg Xanax bars, imo. Doing so will greatly reduce the amount of blackouts and DUI's with recreational street abusers.
 
strangely, alprazolam never has produced any noticeable effects on me in doses lower than 1mg. i don't even know why, 10mg clorazepate or 5mg diazepam will produce a noticeable though weak anxiolysis. also, i'm in the same boat as tricomb when it comes to clonazepam, i was once prescribed the 2mg version in lieu of my usual 1mg alprazolam. during a panic attack i ate the fucking things like smarties and only calmed down when i chased them with hard liquor. not that that is smart, recommendable behavior, but i was desperate. just saying. i have no fear of flying but masses of people can induce symptoms ranging from mild anxiety to full blown panic in me, so benzos are also a must when i fly. the last time i flew to canada 20mgs of diazepam chased with a glass of scotch did the trick nicely and i slept like a baby most of the flight. generally i've found clorazepate to be an excellent and underused anxiolytic, and i use it when i need to deal with anxiety and still be fully functional.

2mg alprazolam have never been available in germany, and alprazolam is completely unheard of as a drug of abuse here.

Ya. Because altering the 80mg oxys have stopped pain pill abuse right?

Whoever said this is...ridiculous. Saying stopping a high mg xanax wil lstop pain abuse is like saying stop making machiene guns will stop guns murder.

Addicts will just take double the ammount of footballs. And I don't know what's going on there in the fatherland butdifferent countries have different drug problems. Like Britain is having a comeback in coke, scandonavia is having subitex abuse, russia "crocidle" etc.
 
Where the hell does oxy come into this at all? Scandonavia is not even a country, nor is Subitex a drug.

I agree that discontinuation of the 2mg alprazolam would not accomplish anything though.
 
Maybe not for people who know about benzos, but so many clueless teenagers are abusing pharms these days that it will help the noobs not black out, imo. Not everyone knows about pharms or is a Bluelighter.
 
True but the same could be argued for anything, clueless teenagers discover their parents Opana 40s and are dead by morning.

I guess that some others agree with you to extent, hence the discontinuation of 160mg OxyContin, which I totally support as well. Yet we still have 200mg Morphine ER..... High dose high potency drugs are required and are beneficial IMO, despite how dangerous they are. I dont see why the entire medical community should have to pay double the amount, people who are reckless are still going to abuse medication regardless of it's formulation, there's only so much we can do to balance meeting the needs of patients and the risks involved meeting them.
 
I meant Subutex and Finland...I mean..cmon...you HAD to know what I meant with the Subitex typo. Like look at the keyboard man. It's literally right next to it. We still trolling each other? And Finland has a serious bupe abuse problem. DOC is the Subutex.
 
All old news. Looking at my keyboard I see no subutex :P

Let's try to stay even remotely on topic, I'm agreeing with you on the high-dose tablet formulation shit.

@Daftpunk, definitely don't take that much alprazolam, that is overkill considering your current tolerance. Try 0.25mg and if you must add another 125 micrograms (0.125mg) which is 1/8th of my 2mg bars. I wouldn't manually divide doses smaller than the four sections of 0.5mg in your situation, I recommend you use a pill cutter. If you have bars, I cut them vertically the long ways down the bar first then it's easier to just break off a section because the score is still easily visible.

Cool thanks, yeah I was thinking even 0.5mg Xanax might be way too much. I have 1mg footballs, so I could cut those into quarters and proceed with caution :D

Actually I'd imagine 0.25mg Xanax would feel pretty strong, considering that would be like adding 5mg of Valium to my daily 3.5mg Valium taper...
