I wasn't saying that the way he acted got him killed. I'm just saying that Xanax+SOMETHING got him killed and he probably wouldn't have died if he hadn't eaten all that xanax, but once you start taking them and you black out, you just keep taking them and taking them.
I came back and said that you were right, if you will check the post you quoted. And I wasn't saying you were telling people to go out and take 15gs of xanax. I was basically saying that you shouldn't be openly telling who fucking knows who is out there, that you can take a shit load of this drug and be fine, when most people who don't take it regularly, will start to black out on as little as 3-4mgs (2 bars).
Ya, they might not OD, but they might end up dropping 8 fuckin bars at once cause they think they're invincible or want to look like the hard ass, black out, and get themselves and possibly someone else hurt or killed. I was with someone that had to drop 4 1/2 bars at once when we got pulled over, and 15 minutes after that, he blacked out. Didn't actually come back until halfway through the next day. I've taken relatively small doses somewhere in the next town over from where I live, and then wake up in my driveway to my parents knocking on my car window, and I had apparently passed out mid-smoke cause there was a half-spent pipe in my hands. My point here is, this isn't good HR. I'm all about supplying the correct knowledge, and straying from propaganda, but there is no way in hell that it is alright to just post where any 12 or 13 year old could read "I've taken 100mg xanax and I woke up the next day," like it's no big deal.
But this isn't even what this thread was about, but you don't care about that obviously. This is what the thread was about:

Q
Hi,
I'm still prescribed .25mg triazolam a day, but I take .5mg every other day instead. I feel no need to take it every day. In other words, I can easily lay off it. Please don't ask why I'm taking it at all then, because my question is this: recently I took a week off where I didn't take any triazolam at all, or any other benzo for that matter. No withdrawals occurred whatsoever. I have read that if you have a tolerance to a benzo it's very likely you are also, if only slightly, physically addicted to that substance. So since I didn't get into w/d's even though I abstained from triazolam for a whole week (and triaz has a very short halflife as you know), does this mean I also have no tolerance whatsoever?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And what I had stated first was just a little side note, that, apparently I had incorrect knowledge on, but I sure came and apologized for the wrong information and said that I stood corrected. But I'm pretty sure this answer would be something that would help him/her a bit better than us arguing over What's Its Fuck:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A
Physical Dependence: the state of requiring a drug for day-to-day functioning after prolonged use; stopping this medication will most likely lead to a withdrawal (there's no such thing as physical "addiction")
Tolerance: the need to take a larger dose of a certain drug to attain the same therapeutic doses as previously attained by a smaller dose
(Drug) Addiction: a disease or condition in which a person is psychologically dependent on a chemical; it is frequently characterized by intense drug cravings, most of/a lot of one's time being spent is comprised of drug seeking, loss of interest in things one used to find enjoyable, and abrupt secession may lead to psychological trauma
These words are not interchangeable. Tolerance is not dependence, which is not addiction. They each have their own meaning and should be used accordingly.

But like I said...You're right, I'm wrong. Congratulations, you have the bigger e-dick.
