Throughout the last 7 hours I cosumed 80mg of Ambien CR, 8mg of Xanax, 40mg of Valium, 15mg of Vicodin and 6 shot of Smirnoff vodka.
I can't sleep, please don't judge me. Lately with a death and everything I've been very depressed doing everything I can get my hands on to get away. Anway, I'm afraid to sleep due to respiratory depression.

Should I be worried? It was in staggered dosses but all the pills were insufflated aside from 2 Ambien. Should I stay up and ride it out? Or pass out like my body wants too.
My benzo and opiate tolerance are moderate. I blow 30s. Don't drink often and weigh 122lbs. Used MDMA the night before. Please, I'm not asking for pitty but should I sleep? I haven't slept in 57 hours, not days lol and I'm physically exhausted.

Daamn dude, thats quite a cocktail. i hope you dont do this very often. Taking all of those and at very large doses (except the hydro) would have me worried.

If you feel ur breathing become shallow and slow id definitely recommend going to the ER.

it almost seems like a death wish at those doses. Usually when u take 2 different types of drugs they either counteract eachother, or potentiate eachother.

in this case ALL of those will potentiate one another, making the side effects like respiratory deppression a lot worse.

Sorry i cant help anymore than this man. Just be carefull
 
OP, you cant go to sleep as at that high a dose and with that many cns depressants you might not wake up.
The ambien and hydro shouldnt be too big an issue as they are both fairly safe even mixed.
The xanax and valium would i think be the dangerous two, especially at a high dose and even more so with the vodka thrown in.
I would seek medical attention right away as you may be unable to at a later time.
Pleasr check back in when/if your able too. So that we know that your ok.

i think the OP might have meant 5-7 days as 57 days without sleep is impossible. The longest i know of was around two weeks but i think the guy died not long after.
 
Don't even think about consuming any stimulants to attempt to alleviate your drowsiness. Adding more chemicals in your body may increase the chance of an adverse effect.
I'm assuming that you haven't drank much water since you took the drugs. In your situation, dehydration is really bad. Slowly drink some water. Non-caffeinated sports drinks will help with the drop in electrolytes. Your goal is to piss a lot, as that will accelerate the detoxification of the drugs that you consumed.

What you should do is consult the Poison Control Center. They'll have better advice than a forum.

I'm a rabid alky and I love pills as well. I've done pretty much the same cocktail and survived it but I'm 170lbs and have a very high tolerance through years of abuse. As was mentioned i'd be lil worried about the alcohol and amount of benzo's you took. Thats a lot of Benzo's for me at least. The 15mg of Vic's really isnt much but again, mixing any opiate with alcohol can cause respiratory failure in high enough doses. The ambien always make me blackout, but not pass out for some reason.

Being you have a "moderate" tolerance. are 122lbs, and have taken a bunch of drugs. Sleep is NOT your friend imho.
 
Good news I am okay. I appreciate your concern and your replies. Looking back and talking to people I feel very dumb and irresponsible. Which I very well may be, or at times. Unfortunately my depression gets the best of me and my only coping skill is not being sober. The Ambien was the biggest problem. Causing constant redosing do to amnesia.
 
Fuck, My Oxycontin 10s are missing too. Never again will I touch my Ambien. I have 7 10mg oxycodones missing.
 
did you eat em? glad your ok.

and that aside how the fuck did you snort all those pills besides the ambien? most are'nt even water soluble and thats ALOT of fucking powder.

Honestly, the only think I'm alive (in all seriousness) is because it was staggered. I stayed away and the Oxycontin were OPs. But as for me snorting 2 bars and eating one all at once with a little to no benzo tolerance apparently is crazy, especially with the vodka. The Ambien fucked me the most. I was conscious but not really in control until the ambien sorta were off, or the vodka. idk. I woke up and the bottle was 4/5ths gone. So I had to have taken more than 6 shots.
 
Ambien sucks....makes me black out every time. I dont even use it for sleep anymore, I went back to 100mg of Trazadone for sleep as needed.
 
I thought i would try ambien again last week after a year or two of much needed abstinence, just 1 tab after a wiskey or two and went to bed.

I ended up sleepdriving to my dealer, buying meth, short changing him big time, driving home covering one eye so i could see straight and shitting and puking all over myself when i somehow got home alive.

It took me days to remember parts of what happened. That shit is wack. I should have remembered that after the last time when it put me in hospital due to sleep-eating them like candy with no memory of it.

Run away or at the very least dont mix it with anything else... I would say strong benzos are safer then this wierd shit in terms of control and memory.

OP said 57 hours, not days, tho I see he edited his post, probably to correct that. and OP, glad you're mostly okay from your benzo OD. and glad you realized Ambien is nothing to fuck around with. I was prescribed 20mg/day (yes, I know the PDR says 10, max) for severe insomnia relating to rotating shift work. serious shit, had to take it pretty much when I was under the sheets and READY NOW for bed. any and every attempt to override or 'will it out' resulted in blackouts.. every... single... time. hope you got some rest, 57 hours is rapidly approaching delirium territory, where you CANNOT distinguish between what's real and what's a product of your imagination.
 
^^ Yeah. My mistake was staying up and watching the shadows turn into wierd faces and shapes and als watch the strange Steam/Myst visuals float around everywhere and in front of your eyes. Far to much visuals for a supposed sleep aid.
I will say when lying down the sensation of no gravity and floating on a magic carpet your could steer with your mind was pretty awesome. It was fun for a while until its teeth came out.
 
Ambien sucks dick.

I was in opiate wd and i stole about 15 of the 10mgs because i thought i could get some relief. I was right, i got a little pain relief from them and a goofy high, but it seemed very dirty like meth or something.

The next day i promptly returned the stolen ambien because they suck, and i'd rather just be in wd, and smoke lots of weed.
 
^^^^^ Meth isn't dirty you fiend! :-). Meth is the purest perfect representation of a stimulant every discovered!

Either take it back or clarify that your "dirty" comment was related to those shitty pharma amps and other subpar amps instead and not The God King Mr Methamphetamine Himself.

Thank you, and you are forgiven :D
 
Op - I'm glad you made it out ok. It sounds like you are going through a lot right now - if your feelings are leading you to act in such a seld destructive manner maybe reach out for some help.

Losing someone important is terrible. I hope you feel better and stay safe.
