I apologize if this is the wrong place, I'm fairly new here. The way I've heard it described is bootleg Xanax, doesn't work quite as well, but I've taken to snorting it. One mg immediately relaxes me. Is this effective? Should I continue using it this way? Taking it orally gives me a very subtle relaxed feeling, but it was a lower dose. Any positive or negative consequences I should know about?

Most benzos cannot be absorbed in the mucus membranes in the nose so snorting is always a waste. Chewing a benzo is the best way IME.
Benzos are like Opioids in regards to yes they belong to the same family but they are different drugs from one another. Xanax is different to Ativan as Klonopin is to Valium. They have all given me different subjective effects but similar objective effects if that makes sense.

I have found Ativan to fuck me to holy hell when I would snort and eat them. Like totally loopy and outta control. Xanax has always had me more stupid but relaxed while Valium had me ignorant and bothered. So you see how they can affect the user in different ways as they are different chemicals but xanax is more like ativan as klonopin is to valium in terms of half life.

Yes I did mention that I snorted A's but that was because of my fascination for sniffing powder. Idk, it's like how I am with smoking. Just really the act that tickles my fancy. But I did not care for the pills to work cuz by the time i'd be railing them I'd be deep into a binge and it wouldn't matter if i smoked, banged, plugged or even shoved the powder down my penis hole because I was already fucked up.
But if you're not like me and you want your pills for MAXIMUM value then chew or swallow em.

Fly safe!
 
Sniffing a mg got me pretty loopy but I feel myself equalling out already (been probably an hour). Before that I took a mil and a half of Klonopin so that could be why snorting the Van felt better. And also where the idea of snorting a mg of Antivan came from. I'll try chewing them next time, I have 20 coming my way so I've got room to experiment haha.

Thanks :)
 
All I'm saying is that the "high" acquired from sniffing benzos is from placebo and the drug itself dripping down your throat and into your stomach. That's all you get high from. You wanna snort something to get high? try Oxy's, H, Coke, Tina, etc. The works. Sniffing these pills is a total waste of time and cilia. lol.
 
yeah they arent really very soluble in water at all... its like 1mg per ml or less for h20. which means that things like mucous membranes absorb very little of it, for how much you lose in your sinuses.

you might be achieving some sort of nasal time release mechanism though lol
 
^ That could be it. The first time I did it like I said I was already under the effect of kpin. I recently just did 3mg by itself and it took around 45 to really kick in and just felt like a light high.
 
if you took 3mg and it felt ok, you could try a bit more, but for me, I like to have an empty stomach, then take the ativan, then have a stoge, then eat something with any amount of fat in it
just dont go overboard, these little shits can stop you from breathing (usually if you mix them with alcohol)
that being said, I once took 13mg at once and felt nothing, but i was also highly tolerant at the time. The most they give patients in hospital is 10mg, anything more is potentially fatal, but less is also potentially fatal as well
stay safe
 
Ativan and the other benzos are rapidly absorbed when taken orally and there's not really much benefit to snorting them.

You can do it anyway but it's not going to get you any higher.
 
Klonipins do I have a nice minty taste. I take Xanax and just let it melt under the tongue if I want the effects quickly otherwise just swallowing it kicks in no more then twenty minutes.
