DHC is a CNS depressant, much like the Xanax, so I wouldn't take it if you like breathing, and yes I would consider 5mg of Xanax a high dose.

^ like mad dog said, the highest dose of xanax they make is only 2mg and that is enough to knock you out with no tolerance, my advice would be to take .25-.5 mg wait awhile then redose if you have to, you can correct taking too little but you cant correct taking too much. I prefer more adderall for the adderall comedown tho lol.

Dhc is an extremely stimulating opiate in my experience..just as codeine..
they would probably be the last 2 opiates I personally would choose...
I mean..for what you're looking for.
I would choose either of them for my own purposes though.
Yeah..no point.
again.
I don't know even know why they let me come here.

5mg of Alprazolam is a fairly high dose for someone with no tolerance, but in the world OF tolerance; that's not much. Use it wisely based on YOUR history and ability to use the drug. We can't decide if a dose is too high for anyone but ourselves.
Mixing DHC and methylphenidate sounds a little unpleasant to me, as token was saying; you'll get stimulation from both, even though the DHC is an opiate.
With that said, if the DHC/methylphen is a combo you are familiar with, using Alprazolam on the come-down will ease your nerves a bit. Don't use a lot of it though, because as noted - they're both CNS depressants (Alpraz and DHC) as well as respiratory depressants.
In short: stick with what you're used to, and dose VERY low if you are in new waters.

Have you used xanax before?

god i found mixing methylphenidate and dhc to be one of the most powerful highs i ever had. that along with oxy and d-amps.
all three together is asking for a lot of trouble. but god is it euphoric. i have mixed all three together and have survived. but it is a speedball in some sense. i have done even stupider things but i am lucky to be alive frankly, and am not proud of any of it. you have to be SUPER careful. and i mean super. your heart will probably want to pack out at any given moment. 1/4 every single dose in my opinion (of your normal recreational dosage) and build up SLOWLY from there, it might even be enough to give you a massive amount of euphoria on its own. i'd suggest mixing ritalin with the opiate or benzo first to test and then work up to adding the opiate or benzo. the combo of the three is frankly stupid and life threatening and in no means do i suggest doing it but if you really want to then it's better to be safe than dead.
5mg of xanax over 6 hours seems like a fair amount but nothing too substantial if you have a tolerance to the drug.
I know my body well and when to stop.

Just be wary of combining ritalin with Tramadol, as the latter is an SNRI, and unless i'm mistaken ritalin has some serotonin activity.

i think that ritalin lowers the seizure threshold in those who are prone to them anyway. it has limited activity on serotonin and doesn't increase it to dangerous levels. of course if you were to pound on the ritalin and tramdol that would be another story, then steer clear.

5mg of alprazolam is a fairly high dose, considering it's high-potency. Why on earth do you need to take 5mg alprazolam? Reckless abuse of benzodiazepines has drastic consequences.

^^^ Taking 5mg of alprazolam at once is asking for trouble, and probably overkill if you just need it to ease the comedown. Maybe .5-1mg if you plan on staying awake after the comedown will make it more comfortable. Too much xanax just causes most folks to do lots of stupid things that they don't remember later. If you are trying to sleep you can maybe take up to 2mg to knock you out, but be sure to get into bed right after dosing. This assumes you have little or no tolerance to benzos.

i agree with this. taking too much xanax = blackout = can't remember what happened, and as such you don't know wtf you have done the night before which is a real bich. i know this from the fact that ive taken up to 10mg of xanax before in an evening, and not remembered a thing about it, fuck me, atm i'm currenrlty wired off methylphenidate and alcohol so w/e. hellooo oworld

Alprazolam is active at 0.125mg, that's 125 micrograms. 5mg is overkill by a longshot

Active and effective are two very different things.
I think 5mg is absolutely overkill for someone w/no tolerance..
however-.125mg is a joke.
Plus I like arguing with tricomb...

Honestly, there's a very simple way to know if it's too much..
Are you awake?
Are you able to speak...no I mean..can other ppl understand what you say?
How about walking..are you able to put one foot in front of the other..and then repeat?
Are you able to put a few good thoughts/judgments together..
for instance..I've taken 5mg of xanax..I should not drive anywhere..
or..I've taken 5mg. of xanax..I should not call my boss and discuss philosophy or religion..or why s/he's an a-hole.
or..I should not allow myself to be recorded and then posted to youtube..doing or saying anything...
just some starting off points...
unfortunately, your tolerance will hurt you in the end.
it's an unwinnable battle.

What you ought to do, is "titrate" your dose - aka slowly work up to. With alprazolam, take .5mg every 10-15 minutes or so, taken sublingually, until effects are appreciated to the required degree. The final amount consumed (if around 3-4mg, subtract .5-1mg) should be around what you should take in a 1-go kinda fashion - instead of drawn out like initial trials must be.
Good luck! I have a tolerance to benzos, but they'll kick my ass 3 ways to NEXT Sunday if I'm too heavy on them... Opiates make me fall asleep; these make me go bonkers.

Alprazolam has no real appreciable anxiolytic activity at that dose (0.125 mg). Any appreciable anxiolysis or sedative activity is achieved at twice that dose (0.25 mg) for benzo naive individuals and true full blown anxiolytic properties for alprazolam comes at 0.5 mg. I know the numbers seem insignificant at a glance, but clinically 0.25 mg is 2x 0.125 mg (which is very significant). Triazolam and brotizolam (a thienodiazepine benzo analogue), however, have activity at 0.125 mg.
