when i take xanax it only takes one to two pills more than what makes me relaxed than what makes me black out. every time i black out on xanax i end up taking way too many pills untill i run out and sometimes will be blacked out for a few days in a row... does anyone else have this problem.

This is normal. Xanax (and benzos in general) can be very moreish, particularly once you get going popping more and are blacked out and not thinking clearly.
 
what you do is plan ahead of time. its called prepping. invest in tagamate and keep to only using x amount. find the sweet spot where your anxiety is gone and you have no fear of talking to people. stay at that dose do whatever it takes. if you know you are going out ahead of time 1 hour before going out take two tagamate. pop one bar then and then take maybe one or half of one with you just in case you feel you absolutiely need it. trick is to try and keep your tolerance as low as possible for as long as possible. think about it, how much fun do you have when you black out? its about control bro. just have to be smart and leave pill at home or if need be hidden and no matter what dont redose. takes practice but you can do it. this works for me. good luck buddy
 
With me...

1/2-1 bar=mellow, chill out...
1-2 bars=mellow , chill out for a couple hours, then pass out and only blackout the last 20-30 minutes of consciousness...
2-3 bars=mellow out for a couple hours, black out, stuff my face, smoke all my cigarettes, spend all my money and then pass out...
3-6 bars=go ape-shit wild, do all sorts of things I would never do, act a complete ass, tear shit up in my own house, then pass the fuck out, wake up pissed off, and get pissy for another couple hours while still half-assed blacked out, pass out again, then wake up and hear what all I had done...(only took this dosage once)...
 
My advice to you is to give someone trustworthy the majority of your alprazolam, so that they can cut you off before you eat too many at once.

This way you won't wake up to find out the rest of your stash has long since been gone. :)

I have never had a problem self-regulating my own use of benzodiazepines, but I know it's a common problem that other people have experienced.
 
It happened to me on my first time taking etizolam, took a couple, wanted more, took some then blacked out and ate the rest without knowing and lost half a day...made me OD and had to go to hospital, my advice, dont have a large stash hanging about like i did

Yes, and a thin line between being nicely relaxed and blacking out.

Had some Etizlam the other day to potentiate Poppy Tea. Had been highly strung from taking Siberian Ginseng and too much caffeine and even the Poppy tea was not countering it much, though I was euphoric.

Took another Etizlam pill, and sat down to watch evening TV. Black out came on quickly without warning- woke up on my sofa about 1 am, my glasses had fallen off but luckily were not sctrated or damaged.

Went up to bed.

6 bars of Zan- serious session!. I heard of lots of people recently seriously overdoing the Etizolam and Phenazepam. Will be pissed bigtime if the Etizolam get schedulled.
 
it takes somewhere from 10 to 15mg to get me relaxed and feeling good but it only takes 14 to 18mg to make me blackout and take all of my script of 90 bars in a couple to few days time
 
This doesn't need to be a "what dose makes you black out" thread.

Xanax and other benzos are well known for causing memory loss and absurd behaviour. Be warned.
