So this is a guy that would actually have the bad sense to take 28mgs of Klonopin and you are telling him he should try barbiturates??
Somehow I don't think that's EXACTLY the kind of HR message this place is looking for lol...
Yes. If he tried barbiturates, he would not require such excessive amounts to get high as he apparently does for clonazepam.
It would be harmful advice if I had suggested he combine barbiturates and benzodiazepines (because they affect ion channels such that one drastically increases their likelihood of overdose—one drug protracts the interval of time the channel remains open (barbiturates) and the other strengthens the effect and increases the frequency the channel opens (benzodiazepines), insofar as I understand it).
However, barbiturates alone aren't exceeding difficult to use rationally, judiciously, and with temperance.
Everybody seems to advise against barbiturates and some go so far as to remove comments that may be construed as endorsing their use.
Meanwhile, we are allowed to freely discuss IVing combinations of heroin and methamphetamine, as if the risks and potential for harm is less, when it is most likely substantially higher.
