Xanax is a benzodiazepine. It will not make you hallucinate. Do a Google search about what the drug class benzodiazepines do. They're prescribed to stop panic attacks and reduce anxiety. Taking them will make you feel relaxed and some people don't even feel any different while on medically prescribed dosages. They're subtle.

Xanax (alprazolam) is also quite addictive. I would stick to smoking weed.
 
i've been on 1mg xanax a day for a month and unless i take 3x my prescribed dose i don't feel any recreational value from them.. I've only been on benzo's for 3 months now so i don't see how my tolerance could be that high..

smoking weed on it def does something different though, that's for sure. I blacked out when i mixed weed and my xanax.
 
Alprazolam (xanax) is a short and fast acting Benzodiazepine with the following effects: anxiolytic, sedative, muscle relaxant, hypnotic, anticonvulsant, and amnestic. It is prescribed for panic disorder and anxiety disorders.

It binds to your GABA receptors and is highly bioavailable via oral administration or sublingual. (don't go snorting your xanax as it is non-water soluable and will be a waste)

I personally would steer clear of Alprazolam going by what you are saying. I've recently come off 6mg of xanax a day and it was the hardest thing i've ever done. Worse than Heroin withdrawals. The rebound anxiety and insomnia fucking nearly destroyed me - I infact tried to OD with H and ended up in the resuscitation ward and then a 50 odd day stay in a psych ward...

The onset of sublingual xanax will be around 10 minutes taking around 1-2 hours to peak and it has a 6-12 hour half life.

If you're insistent about trying it go slow and make sure you have nothing important to do or mix it with alcohol. 1mg of Alprazolam is certainly enough to put a naive user on their ass. And you will come to know what a Benzo blackout is.

My $.02.
 
Please don't choose to do Xanax for your first drug. It was one of my first drugs and I became addicted to it. I ended up going through horrible withdrawal symptoms that ended in full blow psychosis, hallucinations, and extreme paranoia. I don't want to go into it, but Xanax is the devil. Try some LSD, MDMA, or mushrooms instead.... something a bit less addicting.
 
as long as you dont mix with alcohol/other depressants, or use every day, xanax can be relatively safe and quite enjoyable.but be fore-warned abusing them will quickly lead to addiction and as others have stated detoxing is... pure H-E-L-L!
 
^Indeed. Benzo withdrawal is one of the worst withdrawal syndromes.

QFT!!!

I've been throuh is a couple of times and am dreading coming off them again, but I know I have to within the next 18 months so I can have at least 6 months off them before I go travelling. lol, I would almost like to experience opiate withdrawal just so I can compare the two but that is a pretty stupid thing to wish for.

Just in for a few minutes then back to work for a couple more hours. Looking forward to a nice relaxing evening without any drugs. :)
 
^damn. you trying to get clean? taking a break? or did you just run out?


whatever the reason, hope you get through it as well as possible.
 
I'm taking a quick break (think 48 hours or so) from buprenorphine. I took 10mg of hydrocodone yesterday and it helped a bit but I'm for sure in withdrawal today. I'm really only doing it so I don't have bupe in my system constantly, as I've noticed that makes my tolerance shoot through the roof.

I know its counter-productive to redose once the withdrawal symptoms are going, but damn, I really love opiates so its worth it.

Don't try this at home, kids. I'm also on 20mg of XR Dexedrine (dextroamphetamine) which only enhances the WD, but I'm somehow still enjoying it.

Go figure.
 
just trying to decide whether or not to use the last bit of money I have until Friday to buy some cans of cider instead of either some extra food (can make the food I have last until friday easily) or to do some laundry (can just about make the clean clothes I have last until the weekend too if I go commando every day, which isn't a problem with me )

Seem kind of desperate and unnecessary though. I don't need to be under the influence tonight and would probably do me well to be more sober but just have so much going through my head that I think I would rather escape somehow at the moment

Another bit of my reasoning is that if I do it tonight then I will be fored into being totally sober wednesday and thursday night. I think I know that my mind is going to convince me to do it now I have been thinking about it so much so I might aswell just get to the shop now and buy them.
 
Say whaaa bdd social im here. What are we socializing about. Porn is prostitution isnt it?

So next time i get a prostitute i should just make sure to have a video camera with me in case i get busted? THEN shes an *actress*.

O and im pretty faded right meow on some opana. 10mg in the morning around 8 and 10 more at noon. Gonna play some hardcore raquetball soon. Anyone enjoy a lil raquetball?
 
I've played a few games of raquetball at the university gym down the street from me with my roommate, did it on Dexedrine a few times...which was a bad idea.

It's damn fun pretty tiring, I'll stick to straight cardio for my workouts. (Without amphetamines, of course.)
 
Hey Sadie, good to see you back in these strange parts, come here more regularly, we need some more regulars :)

I'm all good, just about, not looking forward to having rice and beans for dinner for the next 3 nights though, lol.
 
strange parts these are indeed. Will try to. I keep forgetting. You know me.


Rice and beans are good dude. Add some hot sauce, fresh chillies and top with a smidge of cheese to change it up a bit. I love rice and beans. Depends on the beans though. My rice and beans are cajun. Dirty rice with black beans usually.

Would love to but I really do only own rice and 3 cans of baked beans and 1 can of kidney beans, so it will just be plain rice and beans for the next few days, could maybe do egg friend rice and beans one of the days. Have a few frozen chips and 2 frozen sausages left which I found in the depths of the freezer so might cook the sausages and chop them up and throw them in with the rice and baked beans tonight.
