Xanax Dose? First Time

[Part Time Junkie]

Hi I wasn't sure whether to put this here or the OD Forum so mods feel free to move it

I have just got my hands on some 1mg Xanax pills and since it's my first time I wasn't sure how many to take. I don't really feel like blacking out or sleeping lol but I don't want to waste any and get no effect

What would you recommend as a good starting dose?

Thanks! :D

Have you tried any other benzos before?

I'd say start with 0.5mg (equivalent to 10mg diaz) if you've got 1mg pills, it should chill you out/kill any anxiety without making you too drowsy.

Yeah I've done Phenazepam and Temazepam.

Quite like Phanazepam in the higher doses, Temazepam didn't do hardly anything at all

I'm on 1mg of Phanazepam now (well from last night) to help me sleep as I'm getting over a daily GBL habbit.

So would half be a good dose to start with then? Also how much if I did want to get some sleep (especially after a rave haha)?

Thanks

Xanax is pretty potent, unless you have a benzo tolerance you shouldn't need more than 0.5mg-1mg to get to sleep.

If I was stimmed I'd probably take 1mg then see how I feel after a little bit, then probably go up in 0.5mg increments if it wasn't doing the trick. I've never needed more than 4mg to sleep after taking stimulants and that was probably overkill with no tolerance.

Also try not to use it for longer than necessary as its pretty addictive Best the doses are kept low and for therapeutic reasons, its much shorter acting than phenaz and can be moreish.

Thanks whoremoaning (great name btw ) I'll try half a pill and see what that does, I can always take the other half if it isn't hitting the spot!

Yeah I don't plan on using it too often due to how addictive it is, just if I really need it to chill/sleep or for a special treat haha.

1mg xanax should be fine

I have been prescribed xanex for a couple of years now & have taken it for reasons like the one you are posting about & many others. I would not worry about taking the 1mg dose if you need to comedown. If you are drinking they are magnifyied differently in each person. Just make sure you party with a friend to be safe!

I ended up taking the other half as it just wasn't quite hitting the spot. 1mg is very nice! Not too sleepy, feel very chilled and my muscles are nice and relaxed (I was feeling a bit achy - not anymore!) I also feel a bit euphoric although no where near the level of G (or higher dose Phenaz weirdly).

Would another mg push me over the limit or would I be OK? I seem to be a natural hard head when it comes to downers like Booze, G, Benzos, Soma, Opiates etc. Guess it's in my genes my whole family is the same lol (well the ones that have tried drugs anyway ).

Also I was just wondering how does Xanax compare to Valium/K-pins?

Thanks

If you take between .5 and 1mg you will definitely be feeling it... even i get really heavy when i take 1mg and ive been taking xanax as needed for 2 years... I only need it like 4 times a month so i dont get a tolerance, but i wouldn t take to much more or your just gonna pass out... just like everyone else said...
good luck and be safe

So that's a no to taking another half/whole pill then PPC?

The Xanax was nice but it's really not hitting the spot I've taken 3mgs over the course of the day and I'm not too impressed. Maybe I got some weak stuff definitely not bunk but pretty weak I guess... I preferred Soma tbh. God I miss G lol.

I'm gonna try doing 2mgs at once next time and see if that's any better

Thanks for the help anyway peeps
