Hey I was wondering if any of you could explain how 4mg's of Lorozepam would make a first time user feel and if I would still feel the same thing on 4-5 hours to 0 hours of sleep. Thank you

Benzos aren't euphoric like opiates and stimulants are, so don't expect that kind of result from them. You will feel more calm and tired, so if you are only on a few hours of sleep then you will likely just fall asleep after taking them.

4mg is a high dose for a beginner. I suggest taking 0.5mg, or a max of 1mg. There is no point in taking a higher dose which will just increase your tolerance more, and have you just pass out anyway.

I agree, don't take such a large dose, it'll most likely make you pass out. Lorazepam is actually the one benzo that does virtually nothing to me, but since that's not the case for everybody just expect to feel quite relax/sedated. Also you might realize that you're losing control of your muscles a bit, might bang into a few walls if you try to walk around. There's no euphoria but I think it's safe to say there's a general feeling of contentedness (like if you're depressed you'll feel more 'normal').
That being said, do be careful as benzos can be extremely addictive - I learned that the hard way.
 
Welcome to the forum
Yea for some reason Lorazepam is actually one of my favorite benzos (Clonazepam being the best for its long duration). My first experience with it was at the hospital when they generously IVed me with 2 mg. That was the only time when I actually felt a euphoria from a benzo. I ve taken Lorazepam countless times after and still loved it. I personally become extra social on it, opposed to other benzos where you just wanna sit and chill.
They are right though if you are a benzo noob 4 mg will floor you, probably with some amnesia. Take it easy with 1 mg and then if you are OK take another half dose to 1mg.
 
just take 1mg, 4 is over the top. It won't do much anyway, if you're looking for a recreational benzo try etizolam. Lorazepam is great for panic attacks though.
 
I would recommend, for recreational use, 1 mg lorazepam if you have no benzo tolerance. This dose will most likely bring about a good deal of anxiolysis (anxiety-relief), a sense of being somewhat "calmer" or "more tranquil", relaxation of the body (in the muscles), possible sleepiness, somewhat impaired and slowed cognition and judgment, somewhat disinhibited behavior, a possible sense of "floatiness" or "lightness", some (not likely troublesome) memory disturbance and forgetfulness, and slower reflexes, on the whole. There may be some sedation, but a bit of excitation due to disinhibition is possible, too.

I suggest 1 mg because it is a good starting dose for lorazepam - lorazepam tends to be more subtle with respect to its actual effects than other benzos for a lot of users, and can cause issues for this reason (it might not seem like a lot, but you can only expect so much from lorazepam, or any benzo). DO NOT mix with alcohol, or any other CNS depressant drugs unless you are already quite dependent to them - the mix is potentially very dangerous, especially for novice to such drugs.

Really, if you take 1 mg lorazepam without benzo tolerance, expect subtle but very real effects including relaxation and calming. Taking more would not be a good idea on account of the possibility of very poor judgment and/or amnesia.
 
Lorazepam is too weak to feel any decent euphoria from just taking it orally. I would take 2mg sublingually as my first time...this would likely give u the best, although short-lived, feeling of euphoria. I did exactly this (completely dissolve under tongue) with zero tolerance before an MRI and I was flyyying for a good 10min. The notable effects from that experience --> peripheral vision is starry and dreamlike, there's a warm fuzzy and heavy feeling around ur head especially behind the eyes, and everything is just chill and slowed down; good for anxiety/panic, not that great for rec use. Taking 4mg for your first time is a waste IMO and will just cause your tolerance to skyrocket and you'll probably just fall asleep without enjoying the full effects.
 
I had 28mg of this recently. Not in one go. The doctor prescribed me it. The shit lasted me about 5 weeks. I don't remember getting anything from it recreationally. Even when I took 4 x 1mg pills. Benzos aren't really the drug if you want to get fucked. You need to make up your mind whether you just want to have a chilled out night in with a couple of beers and some food and shit on TV (then you take benzos) or whether you want to neck 4 pills and have the effects that necking 4 pills implies you want to have, in which case you go score some actual drugs like E or even some MDAI, 4-MEO-Dalt, MDX7C3POR2D2BOLOX or whatever you crazy kids are taking these days, get some pals, get some beer, and just kick the arse out of the night and fucking party and get laid.

Lorazepam is justa sedative. You just feel relaxed. Relaxed can be nice, with your slippers and radio 4 with the heater turned up to 4 bars but it's hardly excitement central. You catch my drift, muddalicka???
 
honestly i take benzos for anxiety it doesnt ever make me feel high...
i know some people like to abuse benzos which is something i have never understand...
and if i do take to high of a dose = nap time
 
Yeah, benzos are extremely subjective really. I found they had an extremely strong potential for abuse because I used them when I was extremely depressed so they would make me feel normal, which to me = euphoric at the time. And just because I love downers in general. That's just to reiterate my previous point about you needing to be careful if you start using them recreationally, OP!
 
This debate has been cropping up a lot lately. I think it's obvious that benzos do produce euphoria in individuals who take them otherwise people wouldn't abuse them as much as they do. I know I feel euphoric effects from every benzo, and each one affects me differently too. Yes it is not opiate euphoria. It is benzo euphoria. Like amphetamine is amphetamine euphoria, each produces their own different type of euphoric feelings.

To answer the question, I don't suggest dabbling with them for pleasure purposes, they are the biggest bitches to come off. Lorazepam in high doses made me hallucinate too. At 4mg you'd probably fall asleep firs time.
 
IME Lorazepam & Clonazepam are 2 of the least recreational Benzos for me, in fact they dont really feel like i've taken anything no matter how high the dose, and that was back when i had a low tolerance to Benzos.

The Euphoria debate will run and run and run...... I honestly believe you will only notice Euphoria if you are somebody who suffers with Anxiety (Like myself) I used to describe it as Euphoria but really what i believe it to be is a feeling of freedom that Anxiety takes away from you, and to have that lifted is like a buzz in itself.

In fact when i first took a Benzo (Diazepam - Valium) back in March/April 2009 i felt like id got my old self back again after years of suffering with crippling Anxiety (General & Social) i could think straight without worrying about irrational thoughts, my mind was'nt racing at a thousand miles per hour, i could talk to people and feel at ease, i could look people in the eye without getting Paranoid and feeling nervous, i could walk down the street without feeling like i was under a spotlight where everybody was analyzing and scrutinizing my every move or every word, i was no longer a sweay nervous wreck, the list could go on....

For me this was Euphoria - I felt myself again after 11-12 years, worry free and relaxed.

But it was a dangerous path and i quickly became addicted and i began to take more and more as my tolerance rose at an alarming rate and before i knew it i was heavily abusing them so i decided back in July 2010 i wanted to quit and ever since then it's been a constant battle!

I still use, but a lot less frequent and a lot lower quantities, although my i believe my Benzo days are coming to an end i've been to hell and beyond over those few years, im not tring to scaremonger im just trying to warn how easily it can get out of control.

Hopefully you don't have an addictive personality and you have will power.

Stay safe.
