I am familiar with the principal theory of cross-tolerance between drugs. I've long used downers/relaxants as my DOC but I've noticed something lately.

I've been on 4mg clonazepam medically since 04' and since then went though almost all the popular benzos and some of the less popular ones, ethaqualone, amobarbital, ghb, h, most of the popular opioids, alcohol and soma...basically I like downers.

Why is it that I feel the cross tolerance between my benzo use and zopiclone/imovane but not with anything else? (very much so even taken 35mg-40mg zopiclone wth minimal results even the shity after taste in the mouh wasn't present)

Anything else like soma, alcohol, etc

Also if I take any other downer I don't need to increase the dose of say soma, in fact I can feel as many somas 2-3 as I would if I wasn't on benzos and this holds true for other combos.

Any ideas?

p.s. of course I feel the cross tolerance between been benzos as well as opioids although equivalency wise I can still feel the slightly distinct effects
