Dont mix benzos and opiates and alcohol! My friend is fighting for her life right now in the ER for doing just this. The paramedics were able to recessucitate her (yes, she technically was dead) but she had a heart attack and stroke with collapsed lungs. She was not alone, and [name withheld] didnt do shit for her, just basically let her die. This wasnt a suicide attempt either; she just did what she had done many times before. This time it fucked her up.
We (BL, methadone clinics, doctors) dont say "dont mix blah bla blah..." just because we want to ruin your buzz, or hear ourselves talk, but because it can be deadly, or worse. Her car, her belongings, ID, etc, have still not been returned to the family (Id consider them stolen at this point, but no legal stuff here), and ofc the people she OD'd with are not being forthcoming to anyone about anything. The hospital wont tell me shit because Im not family, which is extremely irritating. I heard from her half sister yesterday, and this happened last Wednesday, the day she got her xanax script. Once I knew that bit of info, I was able to put together the rest (she traded some xanax for the methadone+cash to get the alcohol) and mixed all 3, and now my sweet sweet friend is fighting for her life.
