Too muche benzo = paranoid ?

[Dr migi]

Hey bl, maybe you can help me.

I take benzo daily. at medium dosage (1-2~mg) per day for years.
Using Clonazepam on the morning for long action and Xanax for his short duration and onset.

Using Buperenorphine ( daily too ) at medical dosage only.

Now ! I used A LOT of high dose of clona or xanax like 8mg at once. and I was HAZED...but it was never like that, I really feel like everybody's spying on meh.

andI am VERY paranoid on everything !!!! this started about a week ago...

any advice ? usine ritalin sometimes too. (new med)


I have a fybromyalgia and broke my feets and leg on an accident. and just after that my psychiatrist discovered that im a serious ( ADHD) patient and with the pain it worsen...

The thing is I used a lot of shit like LSD, MESCA, and many many more of these psychedelics. So I perfectly know when ppl look on you directly or not.

Now it seems INCREDIBELY real. PPl staring at me, looking at me all the time, cars, slower when near me and many more odd things.

I dont know wut to do. I only abuse substance at night and not everyday. so I dont know where the fuck it comes from. Benzo didnt do a shit.

maybe weed+ritalin over weeks...+ bupe patch ?

Im guessing the weed has a lot more to do with your paranoia than the benzos..

Im sure somebody who knows more about this stuff will fill you in.

Good luck.

 

[Dr migi]

hmm much possible. I was in weed withdrawals and that night I started again, HARD, because I couldn't taken it. but with the benzo I was really upside-down. and and IF,again I really say IF it was hallucination/paranoia, I'd know where it come from...

This was a strange smocking pot night with a lot of of benzo as usual and never felt like that!

 

[NeighborhoodThreat]

I'd imagine it was the weed as well,

However, some people have the reverse effect on benzos, this is called a Paradoxical Reaction and if it happens enough warrants a talk with your doctor about switching you to a different benzodiazepine.

Usually...

Too muche benzo = me no wakey wakey long time.

However, paradoxical reactions are not unheard of.

 

[Regenesis2]

Yeah, very well could be a PR. You don't want to risk developing a worse reaction than that. I would guess that sometimes benzos get screwed up on your receptors and act as an "inverse agonist" which can make you full blown psychotic and convulsive. I had a couple of PR's that were a living nightmare.
Any stim can make you feel edgy and weird too. It's not likely the weed itself but maybe an interaction with it and other substances. Be careful and consider giving yourself a break for a while.

 

[Dr migi]

thx for all your answer.

A break ? yeah... Im addicted to weed / benzo and now more Ritalin / benzo.. it's gonna be hard..

 

[Alex000]

It's likely the weed in combination with the Ritalin. Or either one for that matter. Paradoxical reactions, as mentioned, aren't unheard of especially at higher doses, but they aren't terribly common especially if you are dependent, and have a tolerance. And if this paranoia is new, and Ritalin is new to you too, I'd have to guess the Ritalin is definitely contributing to it, if not causing it outright.
