Drugs to aid with public speaking?

its probly different with everybody, but if i have to speak in front of lots of people im using oxycodone...... i would never use stimulants.....

stimulants make my thoughts go thru my head too fast and i cant sort them out.... then ill realize my jaws grinding or im sweating real bad.... that causes me to be even more self consious..... im introverted in general, and stimi's just make me psychotic.....

a maintenence dose of OC would put me in a relaxed enough mindstate where id be focused on the material im talking about, not the crowd..... notice i said "maintenence dose..."... as too much oxy makes me really itchy :) although i tend to mumble alot when jammed... o well... good luck! peace
 
Yeah, definitely try some benzo's. Xanax was/is my favourite for calming the nerves when public speaking. It is quite often prescribed as an anti-anxiety drug.

If you already have a tolerance I would also recommend opiates to go with the benzo. The only thing you would need to figure out is the dosage. Do this beforehand though. :)

I've found 120mg codiene/.25mg xanax to be very successful in a situation similar to yours.
 
when i juse a lott of benzo's say 300 mg oxazepam wauhh
i am the most talk actiev person in the world
great for public speaking
 
Many people pick oxy or hydro as a good social drug.
Would you consider heroin or codeine to be the same (at moderate, non-nodding doses) ?

As for the question, my choices would be:
1. GHB
2. Xanax
3. Amphetamines
 
^^^yeh H in a small dose is fine
butt codeine well i dont think so
if there is a buzz to codeine its only phiscly
thats what i think
butt i woud thake oxazepam or Amphetamines
ghb is to heavy a buzz

maybe it's just me.. or maybe it's rush limbaugh, but on small to moderate doses of oxycodone (and hydrocodone to a lesser extent), i'm alot more talkative. things flow easier, and i find myself making more intelligent conversation

Yeah, I've given a few speeches in college on small/moderate doses of opiods. It works great if you're prepared for your speech, and you're used to the feeling of being high on opiates.
 
If you do use Xanax to help you with public speaking, then that I would not take a very high dose. I learned that the hard way. One time I took 4 1mg Xanaxs and then a little while after that, I had to stand up in front of a class and read a 2 page report. But the Xanaxs hit me pretty hard and when I was up there, sometimes I would just stand there for like 30 seconds not saying anything. And whenever I was in the middle of the report in the class, the teacher would ask me a question, and then when I answered the question, I forgot where I left off reading.
 
Uhhh sir sorry to invade but did you go from adderall to xanax? downers instead of stimulants?

Or are you on adderall right now? remember your adderall addiction post? yep I'm worried about you
 
30mg of Dexedrine and 10mg of Valium is good for public speaking. Valium alone will make you forgetful and Dexedrine alone will make you too anxious.
