I'm the exact same way, I suffer from what I would consider severe social anxiety, for the past 10~ years... I've taken 10mg of Xanax/Clonazepam/Ativan/a bunch of other benzos (all legally prescribed - so no fakes/street junk), and none really have any effect on me what so ever... I don't get tired, I don't get less anxious. It's very odd. I rarely drink (so it wouldn't be cross tolerance) and I don't really do any drugs (short of weed daily - twice a day max).
The only time I would consider them working was with a bunch of alcohol + 10mg of xanax where I blacked out midway through the night and don't remember anything after that point -- obviously I was in the same mood as the OP and just wanted to see WTF is going on and haven't done this before or ever plan on doing it again. I'm guessing its some sort of natural tolerence or my gaba receptors are fucked up
Stimulants work a little better, as they take my mind out of the "social anxiety problem" as I'm focused on as to what I'm currently doing rather than what is going on everywhere around me, but I seem to be quickly building tolerance to these (Concerta/Ritalin). I take them both orally (108mg -- 2x 54mg) and via Insufflation (54mg snorted/54mg orally - depending on how long I want it last/whats going on in my life) a couple times per week (2-3, not daily).
I'd love to try barbiturates to see their effect but the chances of that being prescribed in this day and age is pretty much nil.
