im just curious as i know there are TONS of people with alot of etizolam experience. my basic question is this, .. with no tolerance it takes me 2mg to honestly feel completely stress free and it lasts about 3 hours or so. ive taken about 100 etizolam in the past moth and a half. i feel this isnt alot but it is slightly excessive. the pamphlet that comes with the medication suggests doses from .25mg-1mg tops and i find this ridiculous because it takes me 2mg. is this just me, do i have a crazy high benzo tolerance? or does using 2mg a few times a week sound manageable. im just trying to avoid wd's and so far so good, but i did go 3 days in a row last week and this week without taking any and the most i felt was like i wanted to take them and get baked and listen to music.

at this point i dont think im physically addicted in any way but i do have worse anxiety it seems now when im off them, than before i started taking them. or perhaps its all in my head? some people would probably laugh and say thats not barely anything. so i am not sure really where i stand. any comments would be appreciated. im bascially just trying to enjoy etizolam 2 days a week at 4mg a day spaced in half. i can deal with being a little bummed and wishing i could take them on my "off days" but i dont want to end up getting the physical, more dangerous withdrawal symptoms. thanks for all advice and input. just try not to flame me if you think im an irresponsible dumbass, Lol. thanks guys -aphex
 
i dont have much tolerance to benzos but with me, if i take 1 mg of etizolam it chills me out, still function and think clearly, not tired..if i take 2 mgs it really mellows me out but after about an hour or so im fighting off sleep..there are bluelighters that supposedly take over 8 mgs to feel anything and they arent addicted...that is excessive to me...

id say the max amount of days someone should take benzos without risking addiction is 2 days...any more than that and its pushing it imo..its impossible to say that the anxiety u have is due to the etiz or not..u take other drugs correct?
 
you're doing too much and most likely forming a little habit. 100mg in 1.5 month is a lot IMO.

what are you using it for? don't use etizolam to get high, it's just asking for trouble. use it as a tool, when needed.
 
does using 2mg a few times a week sound manageable.
If you've taken 100 etizolam in a month and half - lets say 45 days for practical purposes. That would mean on average you are taking slightly more than 2mg A DAY.2mg a few times a week would not equal 100.
Anyway that aside - i think you should really cut down your use. I'm not sure if your looking for some sort of comfort here; I certainly can't give you any - but just cut the fuck down bro! go for a jog - replace one every so often with a glass of wine maybe (whatever floats your boat)
 
thanks for the input. im just looking for other peoples long term experiences, and also gauging an accurate dose. and riz, there were some days i took 10 mg in a day, 2 mg 4x throught the day. i have cut that shit way back and spaced some days between doses, i was just curious if 2mg is a standard dose and how often i can safely get away with doing that.

the only other drugs i do (regularly) are medical cannabis, since ive got a medical card and it helps me. but i just have really bad anxiety. i am 90% anti social, very akward, and yes i worry alot. so im kind of using them as a means to curb my anxiety but id be lying if i said it didnt make me feel good. it feels like its the medication i need to be on almost. but i dont want to get hooked. if people are taking 8mg a day regularly, i do feel better about my situation.

belfort- you mean 2 days in a row, take 5 off something like that? im trying to find out a safe regiment. ive been using poppy pod tea for 2 years straight now and i only drink it one time a week no matter what. and ive taken a few weeks off every other month or, just to make sure im not gaining an opiate tolerance. my plan is/was to take them 2x a week at most if i can get away it with it. i just find it weird the etizolam makers say 1mg is max dosage, yet xanax can be prescribed to take a 2mg bar 3x a day. and people like to compare the two in potency, so i am wondering, how can they say not to exceed 2mg a day with etizolam in the pamphlet, yet xanax(being even more potent) is directed to be used alot more.
 
Yeh i think with each thread i read the xanax/etizolam comparisons are becoming truely ludacris
 
I am beggining to use them long term, well for around a year now. If you do intend on using them alot then use them situationally only. Why do you use them ? Understand why you use them. If you use them just for recreation then you gotta plan your breaks and keep your tolerance down. Took me a few crazy sessions to master it. The most i will go on Etizolam is 4 days then i will break at least 3 days with no Etiz, We speaking specifically etizolam here not the shit i chuck down my throat inbetween (:

And yeh 1mg makes me chilled 2mg's im fighting of sleep. Bang on but i like sleep (;

cool, thanks for your input on that jb, greatly appreciated. yea i use them for a little of both because they are kinda new to me, but now that ive had my "fun" i just want to use them situationally for stress and tenseful days, or maybe like u say enjoy sometimes just to enjoy. thats cool you can do a few days in a row then a few off with no probs. so if i can put 4 days off between my doses i can easily handle that for sure.

yea 2 mg's with no tolerance does make me feel good and chill, but i had an urge to take 2 more last night around 4 hours after the 1st ones. im really glad i didnt bc im really working on master using these like i have pods, but its trickier with these tiny candy pills, Lol. so far so good tho and i feel alot better about my situation. but thats why i can easily go through 10 in a day without sleep. 2 mg every 4 hours or so and i for some reason dont get sleepy.which is good.

i read that one of the more concerning side effects of etizolam is raised prolactin levels. have you had any issues with this? i think the main side effect for men would be decreased libido, or lack of morning wood? im not sure on this, but it was a slight concern. i have thoroughly looked up on the internet for disadvantages to raised prolactin levels in men and that was the best i could figure out really. the rest was too much science talk and i have no idea what a good or "normal" prolactin level should be for a guy my age. i dont know maybe i could use them to curb my excessive masturbation habit? Lol jk ; D but really...maybe could, overtime...with the help of my dearest billie jean
 
Na you can still masturbate like crazy even after a years worth of Etiz. Prolac-wut ? Lost me (:
 
well after a few weeks of heavy etizolam abuse, i took 3 full days off last week, no wd's at all, not even mental. they went through another 20 or so over the next 5 days. took 3 days off. it was a long 3 days this time. i just really wanted to enjoy some etizolam! but..im slowing it down now, and its hard to deal with, but worth the inconvenience. now.. my this is this...

i took 2 etizolams at once, go do some housework and i notice myself getting into it more and having no anxiety really. but i was expecting more. so i took a 3rd mg about 35 minutes after the first 2mg's. still not even remotely sleepy, kind of dissapointed in the buzz really. feels like more of a background benzo. im continually blown away by sooo many claims that 2 etizolam and your on the couch. if i take 2 mg of xanax, im for real, zonking out in my dinner. but i can take 3 at once basically and just feel "something". i feel like if i had 1 mg of xanax right now i could get to that recreational point in trying to reach but im just coming to realize i guess ive got a major benzo tolerance, or etizolam is just way overhyped.

i have seen a very few people say dude, trust me, 4 mg etizolam=nice. and i fully agree. but this "oh i take 2 and im out like a light", i find hard to believe. i think im going to take 2 last mg's for the day totaling 5 mg etizolam in less than 3 hours. and im going to take 4 days solid off after today, but literally, i think a "good" dose of etizolam for me, is 3-3.5mgs at once. granted, 1.5 mg of xanax gets me in the total zone for a few good hours. so i dont see how i can have such a bizarre tolerance to one benzo over another one. is that possible? im a lightweight to all drugs, so this confuses me. im starting to thing etizolam are like a weak xanax and 2mg etizolam = 1mg xanax, and im going to completely stand by it. and the xanax would even have more of a full bodied effect (for me). not as clear tho more sloppy and sleepy. so i kind of do prefer etizolam..? but im just like puzzled by all these wild claims about how strong it is. hopefully this helps someone who feels the same way i do about etizolams comparisons to valium (1mg -10mg? yea rite) and the xanax/etizolam 1/1 comparison. thanks guys -aphex

I don't find etizolam recreational. I don't really feel any different after taking a few but if I take them then lie down when I've been doing stims, I always fall asleep pretty quickly so I know they really help me sleep. I just don't feel them.
