Oftentimes alcohol feels too weak but THC feels too strong and overwhelming. Are there any benzos that (in your experience) serve as a decent middle ground?
 
Kinda a poor scale to go by. I and i imagine most people find alcohol alot stronger then weed. For example a bottle of 151 rum 2/3'rds of it will have me drunk beyond drunk. But with Cannabis can use the high thc extracts and be fine.

Benzos are closer to alcohol then weed but benzos are generally much better imo. Much cleaner alcohol is so dirty. The dose is much easier to control to. Much easier to say just take 40mg's of Valium then try to control your alcohol dose all night

I guess that makes sense. Things affect people differently. For me THC is super psychoactive. Melts my brain completely, borderline hallucinogenic. Whereas alcohol just makes me a more relaxed and tired. But after 4 drinks or so it caps off and I just get nauseous, not more drunk.

And yeah, I definitely see how benzos would be a lot more convenient in terms of dosing.
 
Aye totally depends on what you're drinking or smoking.

Just looking to chill some? Ever tried amanitas? Easy to dial in the dose with caps. A bit chilled all day kinda thing.

Wouldn't recommend benzos for recreation.

I don't smoke because I find the smell nasty. Edibles and concentrates only for me. As for the alcohol I mostly drink vodka and cider.

And yeah relaxation is the goal. That and sleep.
