So after being awake for 18 hours like an idiot I decided to take 20mg ephidrene, an unknown quantity of l tyrosine and an unknown,quantity of caffeine. Its now been 7 hours since I havr taken that I desperately want to go to sleep. I've looked at my house mates stash of downers and he had nitrazepam 5mg, temazepam 10mg and amitriptyline 25mg. Which would be the safest to take? Our should I not take any at all. I've never really touched these downers before but I'm getting write desperate.
 
temazepam 10mg

I take some diazapam (spelling?), it sends me to sleep, or other benzos.

the generic form of valium, i've heard of that working for some people. I have trazodone and that pill is off the wall sometimes. Some nights it works, some nights i'll take 150mg (3 pills) and I won't even close my eyes. Go to the store and grab some natural herbs like melatonin, that works wonders.
 
Temazepam and nitrazepam are both hypnotic (sleep-promoting) benzos. Temazepam is shorter acting than nitrazepam and is usually tried first. Nitrazepam can make you feel pretty zombified the next day.. diazepam is more anxiolytic than hypnotic, but I find it more sedating than other anxiolytic benzos.

Amitriptyline is sedating but I'd go for a benzo first.

Melatonin can help reset sleep patterns but I wouldn't call it a herbal medicine - it's a hormone which naturally occurs in humans and other animals, and is involved in circadian rhythms.
 
The only ones off that list ive done is amitryptaline, and at a 50mg dose id be lucky to stay up for 30 minutes before passing the hell out.
 
It's not good to 'dip into' your housemate's stash, but if I were in your shoes I would go for the temazepam for sure. Definitely the most hypnotic benzo I have ever tried.

Otherwise you should go to the pharmacy and invest in a bottle of valerian root, melatonin, and maybe some doxylamine succinate. Especially a combo of all three of those OTC meds and you'll be golden. But in th eevent of excessive stimulant use, the only thing you can do is ride it out unless you have some strong benzos/anti-psychotics.
