So i have orally taken 7mg of xanax over the course of 4 hours. I have a slight benzo tolerance. Will having a few glasses of wine & smoking some premiunm bud put me in serious risk? I know they are both CNS depresaents and both act on GABA so i am kinda worried..

You should be worried of blacking out...

You are well in the range of heavy memory impairment if you combine it with alcohol.
 
A few weeks ago I had 2mg alprazolam and a beer, after working a full day of work I found myself asleep for 13 hours I can't say that I enjoyed it but got after usually getting around 7 hours sleep a night I found this to be a refreshing change. I have a slight tolerance to Quetiapine (nothing hardcore, 50mg daily for nearly 5 months) but for se reason this knocked me on my ass something chronic I could not believe it.

I agree with Psychedelic Jay about the memory impairment, I feel pretty stupid nowadays (although it was a pretty damn stupid thing to do) and I do have other adulterants that have effecte this but I can't say this this helped in the slightest).

Don't smoke or drink anything!!
 
1-mg xannies and half a bottle of red followed by a few cones have me melting into bed with the kind of bliss that feels like honey is being secreted from my heart.

I'd leave the Alcohol and just smoke your weed with the Xanax.

Oh I'd do anything to go back the lovely days of no/low Benzo tolerance.....
 
Alcohol and xanax is a GREAT combo for the purpose of reducing your alcohol consumption to feel drunk. I used to take a lot of xanax with alcohol and i'd usually dose 2mg for a start and then begin drinking. You'll feel a lot drunker with xanax in you and a little bit of alcohol. By doing this you won't feel sick from drinking too much since you won't need to drink that much to attain a nice alcohol buzz, if you catch my drift. Oh and mixing that with weed will make you realllyyy sleepy. And you can get serious memory impairments and possible blackouts so KNOW YOUR LIMITS.
 
yo i pop like 6 of dem yellow banana boat zannies and down half a half gal in one sittin yeah you good bro
 
That much Xanax and a couple glasses? and some primo bud? I used to do that combo in a much smaller amount and don't anymore... Such an easy black out....

There are no limits except jail or death... Any embarrassment you may entail is also not worth it...

Before you know it, your whole bottle of benzos is gone.

Same goes for you... This in no way shape or form is "good" for anybody, not even you.
 
That's way too much dude. Benzos and alcohol can be a good mix as far as euphoria goes but its extremely dangerous. The biggest danger is not the drug itself but what you do while under the influence as benzos and alcohol can make you throw caution to the wind.

I hate to even tell people how to do this safely because it's like telling white people how to use the N-word around black people safely. Its possible, some people can get away with it more than others, but overall the rewards seem greatly dwarfed by the potential havoc. Since I know you'll probably do it anyway here's my advice. Keep in mind I have family members combine these daily.

No more than .25mg Xanax and 3 standard drinks consumed slowly. You should be around people that will keep a good eye on you. Especially your first few times. It's like taking acid. You can do it without a trip-sitter but you won't know if you need one or not 'til its too late.

I wouldn't worry about ODing. I would worry about the much more likely and under-emphasized rampage-style blackout this combination creates. This is not your ordinary blackout. It can lead to very eccentric and non-sensical behavior. I've found myself doing things not only that I would never do, but that I can't even understand the motives the next day. Here's some example of things I or my friends have experienced.

1. You have long phone conversations with family members which consists of either angry shouting or dumping out your darkest secrets and deepest thoughts. You don't even know what you said till the next day.
2. You decide to cook something. You either end up ruining your food and having to throw it out or setting off smoke alarms and sprinklers
3. You wake up and find you filled a few glasses, a trash bag, your bed, and your rug with urine. Your rooms smells like piss for days and despite your best effort you can't stand to even be in there. You end up exiled from your own domicile.
4. You go buy $30 worth of weed on credit and smoke it all. You don't even like smoking that much and you never get shit on credit. You don't remember the fun you had\didn't have. And now you owe a drug dealer money that you have no way of coming up with.
5. You show up to work the next day and get sent home before you can even clock in. This sets back your promotion a solid month and your damn sure can't ask for the raise you deserve.

There's plenty more. I'm sure everyone here has a story. Some of them are worse than others. I've heard the combo called the jailhouse cocktail and for good reason. It also leads to lots of hospitalizations and accidental deaths. Yes its an enjoyable and relatively cheap high. But its not that great on the scale of things and there are plenty of more enjoyable substances that are less dangerous. I would recommend you read erowid and find something better and safer to try or don't try anything at all. This has bad idea written all over it.
