I obtained 20x 20mg temazepam, i rarely use temazepam so i haven't got much tolerance but im going through them fast, I occasionally binge on them (once every few months) because thats the way i like to use them, temazepam however i haven't got much experience in binging with, so my question is, if for example i would finish the pack of 20x20mg temazepam in like 3-4 days can i expect rebound effects or withdrawal symptoms? The last times i have used temazepam was mostly 1-3 a day for max 3 days in a row with a week pauze in between.

To compare with valium and lorazepam I had some binges where i used a lot of them in a few days and then stopped doing them for at least a few weeks without any bad after effects (except for maybe sleeping bad the night after, can i expect the same with temazepam seeing its a strong fast acting benzo?
 
no you would need at least 4 weeks of use to get withdrawl effects. you will be 100% fine.
 
Sorry to say, but that isn't a bright idea.
Taking hypnotics during the day is looking for trouble.
Forget what everyone has said in this thread.
Stop using them during the day.

I honestly think that temazepam could be very dangerous for you.
(just because of that one sentence).
Either quit while you are ahead, or find another sleep aid.
 
Dont get to much of a tiz over them, temazepam is pretty week on the grand scale of benzos, its half the strenth of diazepam an only has an avarage half life
. you should be fine. enjoy...;)

Wrong.
I mean temazepam is a hypnotic and it's shorter half life makes it even more dangerous for day time use.
And I wouldn't exactly say that temazepam is pretty weak compared to other benzos, quite the opposite actually.
Sorry man, but you need to know what you are talking about before posting advice.
 
I'm sorry but I strongly disagree. I'm well versed in benzos and temazepam is the one that develops the fastest withdrawal symptoms IME. It's akin to Z-drugs; it hits hard and fast, and so do its withdrawal symptoms. Think xanax, only worse.
Even when benzo-naive you'll be feeling some vertigo and weirdness around about day 10 of daily use. My advice is to keep it to 3 days a week max if you want to avoid Benzo Ugliness.

Very sound advice.
 
I know its not a good idea to use benzo's this way, I only get a script of 20x 20mg every half year and rarely get benzo's through a different source, that's why I'm asking if I would get withdrawals after using the 400mg in a few days timespan. I have 80mg left and I'm not planning on abusing those, temazepam is having a side effect that is new for me, tendency to get angry out of little irritation.

I'm generally calm but have moments when im easily agitated, but this was harder to control so i'm not stoked to use temazepam this way again.

I read from others elsewhere that they get 30 tem 30mg every month, are usually out after 10 days to 2 weeks and have no ill effects at all from having done this for years now

Ummmm, no.
For this to be true, they would be substituting the temazepam with some other benzo until they get the new Rx.
