So I've used Etizolam a few times and it seems like if I take enough to have worthwhile effects, it makes me very confused and stupid. I've taken benzos before, but it was a low dose and a long time ago. I was wondering if all benzos have this effect at higher doeses? If I take more than 1mg of etizolam, it makes me confused. Maybe it's just me because I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere.
 
Ive been taking benzos since my first panic attack when i was 15, i took klonopin for a year, stopped cold turkey then from 18-21 took xanax and got to 4mgs a day, took a year break was back on ativan months ago, now im stressed and take 2mgs of xanax a day,im 23 now:D

To answer ur question they just calm me down, if i take more than i should i have no anxiety an "i dont give a fuck attitude" ive been to the hospital before for extreme panic attacks and heart problems and they i.v. ativan to me and ive been confused before, benzos in high dosages can make u sleepy,blackout,confused,alot of things, my fiance had only a 1mg of ativan and blacked out. She was fucking high!

Ive drank with xanax and blacked out, and woke up with 10 pills missing cuz when i black out, my self forgets i took my dose, and wants more. So i quit drinking.

So yeah they can. If u get panic attacks ,i say ask ur dr for xanax. It saved my life.im bimpolar ,got depression,and panic disorder and xanax helps me. I take one and 10 minutes later panic is gone! And it doesnt have that dirty feeling i get from klonopin or ativan.

Xanax is 2x stronger than ativan, and is 10xs stronger than diazpam. But be careful with benzos, some ppl grow tolerances fast! My friend was taking 2mg bars over 10 of them a day! And even on a low sose of benzo , U SHOULDNT STOP OR GO COLD TURKEY! U CAN DIE FROM SEIZURES! That means if u run short on ur script up too a week later u can still seizure! And some seizures are FATAL! Ive had seizures years ago on a 3mg a day dosage of xanax cus i ran short! Thank god i didnt die from my seizures!:(
 
For me etizolam starts out like this, smooth..clumsy..sleepy and same goes for most other benzos I've tried. Some of the benefits of using etizolam as apposed to traditional benzos is the withdrawl is no where near as bad, I worked my way up to 10-15mgs a day for months (took a day or two off here and there) and after stopping cold turkey for a little while, and barely noticed anything in terms of withdrawl, restlessness is about it, though the symptoms could have been masked by oher drugs. And at least with the powder I've noticed you get those warm tingly pleasure chills run all over your body for the first 5-10 minutes or so.

But if you mean by stupid and confused, a fuck it, stoned superman that's debating if he should pass out or do more drugs feeling, then yea pretty much all benzos will do that to you at high doses.
 
I've taken tons of phenazepam/clonazepam/xanax and never ended up feeling confused or doing anything mindlessly/dangerously stupid, but it did seem like etizolam made me easily confused and prone to doing actual stupid things... don't know really though.
 
Xanax in particular makes me act very stupid. It turns me into a kleptomaniac, shoplifting from every store I enter. It also makes me very volatile, I would think everyone who spoke to me was giving me "a tone" and if a stranger would so much as make eye contact with me it was fucking go time. The worst is how it would make me crave other drugs, no matter how intoxicated I was I always needed more. This caused me to screw a lot of people over, turning life long friends into enemies.

I was on probation/home confinement from ages 16-18 for things I did while blacked out on xanax, needless to say I stay away from the stuff now days. Ativan, Klonipin, and Valium affect me in the same way but to a much lesser degree. There reason I love etizolam is because it doesn't make me want to steal or be violent. It does cause some small cravings but only for things I have on hand, it doesn't make me want to go ripping and robbing for a fix I don't need. Midazolam also seemed to lack these negative side effects
 
I usually eat a whole box (100mg) over the course of a night. I remove the blue films with warm water and end up into a stumbling blathering faded fool. I love it.

It almost brings MXE like effects.
 
god damn, the most i was @ was 25-50mg/day. i did run thru a box in two days (blacked out) that was total black for the entire two days. it started with that warm "ahhhhhh" benzo type rush (if you want to call it that. then BAM it was monday morning.
same thing with phenazepam, that shit is too long lasting.

Eti is not fun for me unless I'm falling all over my house and wake up bruised...sad to say. So I limit my usage. I've never blacked out though. Shit eventually turns you cross eyed (hence MXE comparison).
 
Benzos have a range of effects, and they do different things to different people. Some benzos are hypnotic, some cause muscle relaxation, some are sedating, some are anxiolytic. They are not all created equally. Just because Xanax makes you retarded does not mean Klonopin will.

I really don't get the Xanax craze. Yes, it is a powerful benzo that hits you hard and fast. But even if Xanax makes you feel like you're shitting rainbows what's the point? You won't remember it the next day.

In my opinion (yours may be totally different, and that's more than okay, that's great) Xanax is only good for a very few things. It's good when you're coming off of Meth/Crack/Cocaine/Adderall, it's good when you absolutely need to sleep, and it's good for people that have to confront their fears, like flying for example. Really, I think Xanax is one of the most overprescribed benzos out there, and I partially blame this for the US crackdown on benzos.

Klonopin or Ativan, on the other hand, have a range of positive effects, ranging from the therapeutic to the recreational. Plus they don't make me (and probably a lot of other people out there) act like a fucking moron.

Note: Take enough of any psychoactive substance and you'll act like a fucking moron.

I agree with your opinion of Xanax. I'm prescribed it for anxiety and it does help in low dose ranges. Otherwise I agree it's best as a stimulant comedown. 4mg usually knocks me out. I prefer Klonopin much much more. It actually gives me energy and a sense of calmness.

errm no one else notice this utter ridiculousness of an input
 
YES! Etizolam makes me extremely forgetful and hazy, even after it's worn off. I've never used other benzos on a consistent basis, but I don't recall Xanax or Ativan making me feel so stupid. Clumsy too. Once I start taking etiz, I keep taking more and forget how much I've taken. The brain fog is pretty severe even though I take etiz with stimulants (which usually make my thinking razor sharp).

There's some concern that benzos can cause permanent brain damage. I know etiz is a thienodiazepine, but I'd bet the same thing applies.
 
Sounds crazy but that's the only way I get recreational value from it. Blurred vision, mass confusion, etc...effect I ENJOY. Even 10mg isn't enough for me.
