Today at 11 when I woke up I downed 525mg Pregabalin (Lyrica) but didn't feel much from it. Probably because I've done it four days in a row now, at 900mg daily, and this was the last I had. Tolerance increases very fast on this substance. Because of this I took 1mg of Xanax together with one beer (3.5 percent) at 12. I have no tolerance to Xanax, haven't used it in a long time. With this added I got a decent buzz that lasted for about 3 hours.

Then at about 16.15 I did 1mg of Buprenorphine which I haven't done since late September. I have had two "episodes" of Buprenorphine use/addiction in my life, exept for doing it 1-3 times a week for a year. These episodes have been this year actually. One that lasted from the beginning June to late July. Had quite a withdrawal (probably slept like 10 hours totally during the first week) but felt quite alright after two weeks. Then I started using again from late August to late September. And also, I don't inject the Bupe, I snort it.

Anyway, I took a walk right after for one hour, and didn't feel much at all. But then when I got home and sat down I began nodding like hell, and have been doing so whenever I sit down, however, when I'm on my feet I have lots of energy. This is nothing new for me, this is how Bupe works for me when I have done a dose that's decently big for me. I can avoid to nod while sitting down quite a lot if I really focus on my writing and do some fidgeting etc, but if I stop doing that for a couple of seconds I'm nodding hard again.

The thing is, t's now 20.10 here where I live, with all this other stuff in my system, do you think I can go to sleep at like 22-23 without stop breathing/dying? And one more thing, my heart rate have been normal all the time, which is about 80-90 beats per minute.

Any input would be greatly appreciated
 
Oh shit it's a serious concern. I think you'll be fine, you've taken it all now anyways, just obviously be extra careful when combining depressants in the future, especially the opiates + benzos, and with alcohol is triply bad.
 
you just seem to be nodding pretty hard, and not necessarily overdosing. i'd feel ok about going to bed. try to calm down and see how fast you're naturally breathing. if it seems normal then start snoozing
