1 mg of Xanax (or 4 - .25 pills) should be good for the first time. If 1mg isn't enough just keep on taking more, but I'd stop when you get to 2mg since this is your first time. Just don't pound down a six pack of Budweiser with the pills and you should be fine.
 
^^^^^ Take his advice if you enjoy being passed out face first in your own vomit & waking up with no recollection of what happened....maybe the vomit part is a stretch. But neways
1 1/2mg would be good for your first time, but you can always take more if thats not enough.
Don't drink with it. Any time you try a new substance, you should feel it out first, meaning do it by itself. This applies for all new drugs you try. Once you've got the handle on it, and what it does...then start experimenting with combos.
If you drink a 6-pack with 2mgs of Xanax in your system you'll almost definatly pass out, especially because its your first time on Xanax...hence you have no tolerence for it.
enjoy
 
That's why I told her not to pound a six pack....the idea was, not to drink with the pills.
Sarcasm is definitely an artform lacking at this bb.

lol.
Anyhow, don't worry about the experation dates either. With pharmecuticals, as long as they've been stored normally, there really isn't much to worry about in terms of quality degredation. If you've had them in a med cabinet or something and they basically haven't been sitting out in the sun for 5 years, you won't have a problem. :P
Have fun. I'd start off slow and redose in an hour or so depending on how you're feeling. take 3 .25s to start. some people have a very low natural benzo tolerance.
 
The .25mg pills are almost worthless once you've been taking benzo's for a while. In the past, I acquired 200 1mg alprazolam (generic Xanax), and I found you need at least 2mg to get a buzz, I really need about 4-5mg to drift off nicely. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a heavy benzo user, hence I don't have that much of a tolerance. I use them once or twice per week tops when I'm experiencing sleep problems. There really isn't that much of a high, you just get really sleepy and floaty, these are great as a sleep aid. You can also abort another trip gone bad ie. LSD, DXM, shrooms etc. with Xanax, which can be very useful on occasion.
 
start out with a football and wait about an hour and if you dont feel how you want to eat another one. I wouldnt eat more than a bar though my first time and alcohol goes great with xanax just dont drink too much or you wont remember a damn thing from the night.

This isn't very sound advice.
You're going to need at least 1mg, or 4 footballs, to feel the desired effects.
Also...Spacing out 4 footballs over 4 hours is going to be a waste.

I would say if its your first time do about 1-2mg. That's what I did my first time, though i also smoked some crypt along with.
A word of warning though, usually when you take benzos, you want to take more and more, so you better keep your head, though you shouldn't die or anything if you accidently take 15 .25mg pills. You will just be crazy and really slowed down without realizing it. That's the thing with benzo's, you don't really realize how messed up you are until afterwards. So take care to not take them all.
Ps--dont let any authoritarian figures see you either, you won't know how messed up you seem to them.
 
I dunno the thrill of xanax.. i have a slight benzo tolerance from ativan and valium, so i thought id try a new benzo. I scammed my doc into giving me .5mg xanax 3 times a day, just so id have them, and the first time i took them i took 1mg, and passed out like a light about 45 mins later. at .5mg, i still fall asleep, but it takes a little longer. at .25mg, it gets rid of my anxiety, and makes me really irritable, so much so my gf doesnt even like to be around me if i take them.
So basically, I scored 150mg of one almost totally useless benzo. the upside is it does put me to sleep, so its good for that, and ppl pay like $2/mg around here for them, so i have a way to make a few bucks.
moral of the story, ive heard a lot of ppl only use xanax to sleep, so be prepared for a few hour nap, and start low and work yer way up.

I agree, I've taken small doses such as 1mg, and found it does absolutely nothing for me. Perhaps if one were to be experiencing a panic attack at the time, they'd feel mellowed about by 1mg. As said in my prior post, I usually take as little as 2mg up to 5mg, depending on how fast I want to get to sleep.

if you want the full benefits of XANAX youd better go ahead and take 2mg your first time cause tolerance builds VERY FAST with benzos..so you will have to UP the dose the next night.
your gonna feel:
>relaxed
>OFF balance(like yer drunk,cept not dumb-founded)
>maybe some euphoria (i feel euphoric when i take xanax) but everybody is different
>and you will have the BEST nights sleep you have had in prob a long time
..but its up to you
 
I find it totally amuzing that so many people in this thread can magically tell this person how she is going to feel by taking a certain amount of xanax. Can any of you read mt palm???
Sorry, but i'm not flaming anyone, all i'm saying is that **EVERYONE** has different tolerance. I have seen people that take .25mg's for the first time and get really tired and fall asleep -- and I've even actually seen people take a full bar (2mg) and barely feel a thing.
Tolerance builds with frequent use. it's not like you are going to take xanax only 1 time and then never be able to feel the same again from that same amount.
2mg's is an extremely high starting dose of xanax. To anybody who challanges that statement, grab 12 of your closest friends who don't have benzo tolerance, feed them a bar(2mg)of xanax and see just how long it takes before they pass out (especially if they drink on top of it).
Start out small and work up from there if you need to.
A question to all -- Why do you think the .25's exist if they don't have much effect on anyone???
As a matter of fact, they even have a split where they can be broken in 2.
Yes, I know there are hard core benzo fans that can take pill after pill, but as far as a first timer, lets take it a bit easy.
 
Personally, 2-3mg is recreational for me. But like what several people said, 0.25mg could easily put you out for the night. Everyone is different. My advice would be to eat one and see how you feel. If you don't feel anything eat a couple more. You get the idea.
 
I would advise at LEAST 2mg for a good buzz, but I know everyone is differn't, so I will go ahead and advise you take all 4, on an empty stomache, and even better is to let them disolve under your tounge .. alcohol can definitly help, and yeah, in the end you're most likely to passout, if you did it right you wont remember anything, if you really did it right you will make a total ass out of yourself!

If you ever wondered why alcoholics go to AA meetings, watch how most normal people behave when they eat some xanax and get shit-faced. They start breaking stuff that belongs to them, piss in trashcans, beat up their friends (or get beat up), try to drive motor vehicles (cars, golf carts*), and wake up the next day with no recollection of the night before. Sounds like an alky doesn't it?
*True story: Friend is drunk, manages to steal a golf cart, crash it into a building, and get arrested on the scene.
 
For a non-tolerant user i would recomend 1mg as as starting dose. If this isn't enough you can 0.5mg more and another after that until you find a dose that suits you. Optimum dose fore me is 2mg of alprazolam. The optimal dose varyis for person to person.
 
I want to thank everyone who answered my post..I just took the Xanax, finally, about an hour ago and i am feeling very very very good......
By the way thanx to Conspiracy Kid and all others who said start slow I only took 1 0.25mg and like I said I'm feel really really good..
Thanx bluelighters you guys rule!!!!
