Tell me about your benzo expierience

Not necessarily true, I went to work on doses of 300mg diazepam + tramadol + oxy in the past and I still did a good job.
Friggin benzos. I haven't really experienced black outs, just some difficulty placing all the events that happened during that period of time in the right chronological order, if that makes any sense.

Also, after taking those huge doses I wouldn't even sleep longer than I do when I'm sober. (Like 8 hours each night, 10 max.) When I gave a friend 12mg bromazepam & 10mg diazepam he was K.O. for like 20 hours, haha. Another friend needed a little more but he was a daily benzo user too. Though he would also be K.O. for 20 hours or more (hes a sleepy head, lol) after a night of taking benzos & opiates with me. =D

Glad I'm almost rid of the stuff though. But damn the withdrawals are hellish, this is the first time I got some relief since I started tapering about 2 weeks ago. Being dependant on benzos is a real bitch, for a long time I didn't go out the door without having some valium or some other benzos on me.

well you have a tolerance so thats good for YOU but not neccesairly someone like me with no benzo tolerance. so when i have only a few footballs its a good thing i cant redose or ill end up like last time. taking 15 footballs and drinking a half pint of liquor and busting my face on my front lawn

Nah I don't have a tolerance anymore (and THAT is good for me ;) ), I'm tapering down from 10mg valium, which had been my maintenance dose for like 6 months. But I still can't imagine blacking out from benzos or unintentionally redosing because it never happened to me, even when I took those high doses. I wasn't saying what you said wasn't true. I was just saying it's not the same for everyone. It didn't (and still doesn't) matter if I had 10 boxes lying around, I'd never take more than I intended to take...

I know alot of people experience these blackouts, and I've seen plenty of people black out and forget the entire evening after taking what I concidered a low dose at the time.

I was merely sharing my personal experience, afterall that's the topic of this thread... I was also saying that having benzo blackouts and unintentionally redosing doesn't happen to everyone.

Best: relaxed, sociable, giggly, not a care in the world.

Worst: blacking out, vomitting blood
 
Best: being able to relax enough to shut my mind down and go to sleep during stressful life situations.

Worst: Addiction; being chained to a pill knowing that if you miss your dose you would be in hell within 24 hours. Most physically addicting substances that I've have ever put in my body.

Tip: Valium is more forgiving if you miss a dose. ;)

But I agree, from all the drugs I've binged on/been addicted to, benzos have the worst withdrawals by far.
 
I've never taken benzos in a social situation or on a night out drinking,so I can't comment on that.But I originally started on them for panic attacks and insomnia,and if I very occasionally did recreational doses,I'd only do it at home and feel fantastic as I was sooo relaxed and didn't have a care in the world.Just laid on the lounge with a blissful smile on my lips.
Then I got into stims,and quickly found the value of benzos to pretty much avoid comedowns altogether.But I was taking more than the prescribed dose to come down,and my tolerance grew,and the doctor kept upping the amount without much hassle.Pretty soon,I was running out early,telling my doc bullshit stories to get an earlier refill,and then one day when I was completely out of them,he refused to give me a refill.Cold turkey off 6-10mg of Xanax a day is not only hell on earth,it also put me in hospital as I was having mild seizures along with a whole bunch of other things.
I ended up doing a taper with valium,but was cut off the taper earlier than I could handle,so after a psychiatrist appointment,and being diagnosed with panic disorder with agoraphobia I'm back on the Xanax.Despite being prescribed 4 mg a day,I try to stick to 1-2mg unless I reallly need more.I have a hell of a lot more respect for it after what I've been through.
 
^I can relate to that. I am on a valium taper right now and I'm going to run out soon. I'm still having pretty bad w/ds so I don't know what I'll do or how I'll feel once I run out.. I'm pretty scared of that.. I'm hoping my mom will give me some tetrazepam if I tell her I can't handle stopping yet.. I'm just gonna have to wait and see I guess.
 
^ Oh that sucks,been there done that :( I ended up doctor shopping for valium when I was cut off before I was ready.I'm lucky I found a great psych after about a month of that.
 
My mom saw how terrible I looked and she offered to give me some tetrazepam herself.. Sucks that it's a pretty short acting benzo. (And weak too, but I don't mind) I'm not ready to go to zero, that's for sure. I'm sweating so much, got the shakes and I've had bad insomnia for 2 weeks now.

I have a doctor I could go to who's very "generous" with prescriptions. I started going to him because my own doctor cut me off at some point and I was desperately addicted at that time. (I knew he wrote prescriptions for the price of a consultation because I knew someone he did it for.) At a time I took around 300mg valium per day.. (That's the equivalent, I was mixing high doses of diazepam, alprazolam, lorazepam, lormetazepam, clonazepam & bromazepam every single day.) Tapering that down was also really bad.

This time I had been on 10mg valium for 6 months. I tapered down to 2,5 in two weeks, which I've noticed now is way too fast. I never got the chance to adjust to a lowered dose before I lowered it again... But I only have 7.5mg left. I'm gonna re-up my dose to 5mg, and then to 1x 50mg tetrazepam (which is the equivalent of 5mg valium.)

I hope I'm able to finish tapering with tetrazepam.. :\

It's great your mum is sympathetic and helpful,but the short half life of tetrazepam worries me a bit,since Valium's long half life is what makes it so much smoother.

Wow 300mg a day?! Fuck I started my taper on 75mg a day and when I went to fill my script,the pharmacist would always do a double take :p

Your taper sounds waaay too fast.At first I was only dropping 5mg a week,but my doctor rushed me at the end which totally fucked it all up.

Honestly,I'd be going to the generous doctor and getting the valium you need to finish off the taper,as long as you're not tempted to get more than you need seeing as he is so generous.

Best of luck,I know how tough it is <3
 
^Thanks for the words of encouragement. :) I know valium would probably be better, but I forgot to mention that that doctor is on vacation till the 13th of august. So I can't get a script from him before that.

I'll have to manage with the tetrazepam.. When I decrease my dose the withdrawals will have a quicker onset and be more severe.. One small advantage of shorter acting benzos is that the withdrawals don't last as long as with long acting benzos.

Ideally I would like prazepam to finish my taper. Prazepam is an active metabolite of diazepam which has the same half-life and is roughly half as potent as diazepam. It comes in 10 & 20mg pills and in an oral liquid formula, 1mg=1drop. It'd really be ideal to finish my taper. But well, I have no choice but to stick to tetrazepam for the time being. Maybe I'll go see my old doc and ask him for a bottle of this liquid formula.. Don't know yet. First I'll see how I feel when I've switched to tetrazepam.
 
my best ever benzo experience - 6mg of rohypnol. no idea what the fuck it did to me, but i felt like i was floating for the next hour until i passed out on my sofa.

it's the only one i could ever use recreationally. none of the others are really recreational - unless i mix them with opiates, but its reckless and dangerous.
 
I fell asleep. There you have it, every single one of my benzo experiences. Unless it's combined with something it's pretty much boring.

lol

you havent tried rohypnol, that shit is weird, its the only benzo i got a real euphoria from.

some also get it from temazepam (2-3% of the population) i believe. didn't do that to me. just fell asleep, again.

but z-benzos. never again. ever. EVER. zolpidem is the most fucked up drug in the world. fuck that shit.
 
I've gotten euphoria from temazepam. I've tried etizolam, diazepam, lorazepam, clonazepam, flurazepam, temazepam, midazolam and alprazolam and IMO temazepam is the most euphoric, for a benzo anyway.

temazepam is euphoric IMO by itself, but especially when combined with an opiate and/or a stimulant, but that's dangerous, so try to not do that. One of my favorite combos are 15mg temazepam, 25mg d-methamp, 10mg hydrocodone, and 10mg oxycodone. But seriously, don't try that, it's dangerous. Know you're tolerance 'n shit.

It's euphoric, but I still fell asleep. Basically my experience was laying in a smily stupor for an hour and waking up with very little memory of what happened.
 
well shit yeah, benzos, opiates and amphetamines are my favourite mix and always will be.

the best high i ever experienced was from that combo, 2mg xanax, 2mg of rohyp, 80mg oxy, 200mg dihydrocodeine and 10mg of d-amph. was literally in heaven. i didn't pass out, i just sat in my chair mesmerized for some reason, and continued to take more amphetamine. i'm such a reckless bastard, but i had built a tolerance large enough to kill a large family of horses over the space of 4 years.

oh and jesus yes - bromazepam and codeine. that was a fucking heaven mix too. no amphetamine, but it was still a match made in heaven.
 
Best experience was I'm not sure how many mg of Xanax and a lot of alcohol...not very HR when I think about it. But I felt totally euphoric, whereas I never get that on benzos. Was amazing.
Worst experience...blacked out and can't remember a whole night, ha.
