was popping something like 2-6 (2mg?) bars a day, maybe a few 5mg? percs, and the rest of the time I was switching between taking a dabs and doing lines of coke.

last 2 weeks probably did maybe 30 bars, 4-5 gs of blow and i don't even want to think about how much weed and wax.

I've gone through oxy withdraw and minor benzo withdrawl. I don't think I've ever taken this much. My short term memory and problem solving skills are terrible, and not to brag but I'm usaully pretty sharp.


anyways.... just looking for advice to get through this. I know last time I was getting off benzos I was having anxiety and panic attacks up the ying yang, plus ass the wonderful things that come along with opiate wtihdraw. Never mixed it all with coke- at least not to this degree. Used to not have a taste for it...now I just like the way it smells... LOL.


I wish I could just sleep it off for the next week but I'm pretty sure that isn't going to be a possibility.... so.. here we are... Oh ya, my dad might be showing signs of dementia/alzheimers, as well as a my grandmother needing 24/hr care. At the point now where I'm afraid to run out of the xan because things tend to get violent at home.. my dad is like 6'4 240lbsa and my mom is like 5'3" 150 lbs. I don't know who to turn to... all my friends are tired of hearing about the same shit that has been happening all my life...I've left before but always returned out of fear for my mother.... idk what to do any advice on both dealing with the w/ds and the social setting. sorry... kinda fucked up on the last bit of my stash.
 
You should take it easy bro, you're gonna be OK if you just stop the coke. IMO, coke and weed don't mix. IME, coke don't mix with anything... It's a shitty drug and it's usually cut with even shittier shit...haha Can't breath right...nose all plugged up or even worse, running down your face....nostrils all inflamed. Then if you add THC to the mix in uber high doses (like dabbing wax 8( ), you get all paranoid and strung out. Fuck that, I'd have to drink a whole bottle of Jim Beam to wash that shit off...

Good luck, and I'm totally sorry to hear about your Pops... I can sympathize with that man.. Make sure to do a super gradual taper with the benzo's, especially the short ones like xanax. It works, but it doesn't last and that's all there is to it. DO NOT sit around and dwell on it all day, getting fucked up on hella drugs. Trust me, that is not the way to deal with a loss. Getting as sober as you can and going to an NA (Narcotics Anonymous) meeting and SHARE YOUR STORY...there are people there who will listen to you.
 
for sure thanks for the advice man.... it is definitely so easy to fall back into just sitting aorund and smoking weed all day
 
Great advice posted by Screwlight, pretty much exactly what I was thinking. The coke will be the easiest to stop first cuz it will make the opiate and benzo withdrawals so much worse if you don't. Def consider NA, it really does help, even if you don't completely quit drugs forever it'll help at least get through the days that you go. Gives you something to look forward to and do besides drugs, yet still drug related.

Just wanted to add, if you can't taper down and come clean off the opiates and benzos, you might consider getting a small amount of kratom and phenibut to make the withdrawals much more bearable. Don't wanna trade one addiction for another though, at least these are cheaper, legal, and not as intense.
 
I've tried just about every benzodiazpeine at some time in my life. The best is clonazepam. It's very very strong and it doesn't screw your head up. I've heard its the only benzo that has actually been indicated for long term anxiety. Second strongest I found to be bromazepam. Lorazepam is like bromazepam but without the sedative effect and at least as hard t withdraw from..Valium makes you agitated and anxious and its not so strong.Nitrazepam is strong but it makes you hungry. Oxazepam is considered weak but I quite like it. Librium is very very weak and xanax is strong but utter hell to withdraw from. Stay away. The z drugs (zopiclone and zolpidem) are not quite as difficult to withdraw from. Zopiclone tastes terrible and you can;t get rid of the taste becsuse its secreted in your saliva. Zolpidem is strong for a while I guess. Versed (midazolam) is a bit of a disappointment compared with my expectations. Don't even think of going anywhere near triazolam. The half life is so short and potency strong that you suffer withdrawal inbetween individual doses! They say nimetzazepam which is available in some south east countries is very strong but I've never had. If you have to go long term, go for klonopin (clonazepam). t will be hard to withdraw from because its very very high potency so you'll prob. have to do a valium conversion but its strong, sensible (ie. doesn't screw your head up) and keeps working longer than the others.Oh.. and a word about temazepam. I know it's very highly abused. Don't know why. It's not so strong. Take more than two and you can get a headache (and it's toxic!)Doesn't do much for muscle relaxant ok guys n gals see ya
