& Thread.

I have a breif history of benzo abuse, and am just curious on how close to 'the edge' I put myself before realising what I have been doing.

A little bit of a backstory; I am a lightweight, approx. 120lbs and close to 6'0" (if that matters; read somewhere BMI had different affect on dose.) At the time I had no tolerance to benzo's of any sort.

My question simply is how high of a dose (~mg) would be required for either permanent damage or death of myself? In the sense of harm reduction, I want to know your estimate on whether or not I should worry about my previous benzo abuse.
 
morbidity and mortality rate of mono-drug OD wit benzos r very low but it aint mean u can eat bottles of kpins. i guess u need to tell us moar about ur benzo abuse history
 
this isnt the site to go to when you are asking questions like

"how high can i get before i have to worry about ODing"

its all about harm reduction, but i suppose answering your question may result in harm reduction assuming you really dont know.

i say 4 mg.. start with 4mg and work your way up if you arnt satisfied i guess
 
This specific incident comes to mind, where I had taken somewhere between 4-5/0.5mg pills and veguely remember upping my dose until all my pills were injested. I recall having somewhere between 11-15mg. I know for a fact that I took them all within a ~45minute period.

Someone told me a while ago that Klonopin has been known for causing short term brain damage (memory loss past drugs' half life, motor skills slowed, reaction time slowed, etcetera) as well as certain long term damage, espescially in remembering very specific things.

Another time I had taken 15-20mg, again without thinking about it, (would dose; then redose once the original dose has 'kicked in') but I am almost positive I had some sort of tolerance as I was not nearly as "zonked" out as I was previously.

In this time I have caused harm to myself, objects around me and I am sure dangered my life time and time again. Just looking at the damage to my house once sober, it's amazing I am even alive today.

Not the question at hand. I have no intention of ever doing Klonopin again. I am simply worried on how-much harm (if any) I may have caused to myself.
 
alright, i understand.

i dont do kpins for that reason, i was taking 2mg kpins every now and then, but they would make me a maniac during the comedown/half life

on my bros 24th bday he had taken 10mg methadone and about 4-5mg of xanax
(i thought he was going to die) he was out of touch with reality. We had a phone that was broke in half and i caught him trying to call someone on it (NO LIE) For 2 days after that he would zone in and out of reality..we were walking in walmart the next day and he stopped and was like "hey, how the fuck did i get here?"

i also heard that kpins fuck with ur head, i have no proof just what i heard
 
ODing on Benzodiazepines alone is quite rare. it's when you combine it with other CNS depressants when it becomes very dangerous.
As for long-term damage you may have caused, I cannot see any cause for concern.
Like you said, the most likely after-effects will be random bouts of Amnesia, a cloudy-minded feeling etc.

But when it comes to actual physical and mental damage, you will be just fine ;)
 
Thanks for the information, and Demize; that's pretty much what happened to me.

but honestly half the threads are from people who are 1 shot/pill from overdosing.....
 
I remember why the first time with 11-15mg the drug was more effective. I drank 3-4 beers prior.
