I took my first 2mg xanax last night

And I think my expectations were too high ..? I had heard that it slows you down and relaxes you, is prescribed for those with anxiety. I definitely experienced the lack of anxiety, as because normally I get sort of hieghtened and easily agigated all the time, and i experienced absolutely none of that.

But I was extremely slow and just kept falling alseep.. prob a half hour after i took it. Or 'nodding' i guess ud call it. I kept sleeping and having really fucked up crazy dreams, and than waking up every half hour... or a little longer. THan in the morning I still felt it, I took about 1mg more, prob 6 hours since the last, and now its been about 6 hrs since, and Im not feeling any hangover/comedown or anything like that.

I have a question tho, they say that you fall asleep all the time on xanax if u take too much, but that was my first time and ive been told 2mg is good for a first time. I wouldve definitely enjoyed it, because of the calmness and relaxation, if I didnt get so damn tired.

Is mixing something like amphetamines or caffeine good with xanax??? What else can I do to not keep falling asleep ????
 
damn. alright.

well question, next time if i take like ... .5mg, 1mg will i feel anything?
or do u develop a little tolerance right away ??

also again anyone know anything about mixing caffeine, amphetamines with xannies
 
Ya you took too much.
first time I tried it I took .25mg!!

I felt it for sure...I was walking in the hallway and stopped in my tracks because of the feeling. :) It was cool ~~

Don't take it in a social setting, be comfy at home, I think that would contribute well to feeling the high.

It was made to relax you, thats pretty much how the high works too.
 
If you drink caffeine, you might as well through the benzos in the trash. i dont know about amphs though.

Don't take so much or you will fall asleep. Unless thats what you are after.
 
First time I tried it I was a teenager and took 5mg (10 pills) from my grandmother's supply and had a few beers with the extended family.

It was a very, very, stupid thing to do, and I don't recommend it to anybody, but I certainly wasn't falling asleep. I didn't even realize it was affecting me until the next day I reflected on how much fun I was having the night before. Nobody noticed anything off about me either.

But yeah... benzos are extremely subtle drugs. I don't seem to be sensitive enough to have any recreational use for them unless I combine it with alcohol... which, again, I don't recommend doing. But I'm a very anxious person as well so I do have a practical use for them... which gives me all the more reason not to abuse them.

Your expectations probably were too high, although it does sound like it was quite a high dose for you. Still... even if you can find the sweet spot it's such a subtle drug that sometimes it's hard to notice anything. If you're looking for any sort of intensity in the high, it's the wrong drug. It can be brilliant when used in combination, IMO, but I really don't like recommending others to mix drugs...
 
^ wow! 5mg, first dose w/ beers and nobody noticed, let alone you didn't pass out??? perhaps they were 0.25's?!?! Not to negate your experience, its just that I would say almost all can agree 5mg's at first dose would knock almost anyone out, or at the very least slur speech and balance

I'm positive they were 0.5mgs, and the prescription was dispensed only a week earlier, so I don't think they were significantly degraded.

Sometimes I think there's something wrong with me lol... it usually seems like I need much more of a drug than others to get to the same level, and I've never been what could be considered a heavy user of anything, definitely not enough to build up much of a tolerance.

It's actually pretty shitty because it makes it a lot more expensive for me, not to mention that when I manage to get my hands on something unusual, it won't last me nearly as long.

Valium also, first time I got my hands on some (and every time since), I can do 50mg and not really feel high. Admittedly it helps a bit with anxiety though. Ativan and Temazepam have had no recreational value for me either.

I should mention though that I've recently been prescribed 0.5mg klonopin twice a day, which is a fairly small dose (especially in comparison to the others), and I find it too much to handle. I feel less anxious, but I also feel really stupid and gloomy. Never sleepy though.

^ just goes to show ya that we all react to drugs differently... When I was addicted to alprazolam and had built a tolerance, 5mg would still effect me, but only in the way .5 effected me when I first started... That's the worst thing about bezo's, IMO, they're a lifesaver for some and prescribed usually short-term, but they build such a fast tolerance and are very addictive for people like me. :( I can't even describe how terrible coming of xanax was for me. Such a scared, creepy feeling, gives me the chills just thinking about it. I would be sitting at my desk at work just petrified, aching, tired, and feeling disconnected from everything. Worse than opiate wd IME
 
sorry for long bump...

i just took 2.5mg of xanax for the first time and i have work in 2 hours (830am till 5pm) and im starting to feel like my feet are very heavy, typing is hard, im chilled assss but i just couldnt resist myself from trying some, but its before workkkkk! sighhhhh

okay so question pls before i head off - is there any tricks or ANYTHING I can pls do to resist falling asleep at work? like wtf can i do to act normal at work? i cant be to fuckd but its only been 90 mins before i took them...stressing out and im probs blabbering - i can type all day i feel like, ok wtf

help pls on tips would be much appreciated? thanks!

oh srry if that didnt make sense but it should do... umm bye
 
First time I ever took Xanax I took 5mg (I know, retarded...) and I woke up downstairs on the couch with no recollection of how I got there.
 
well hopefully 2.5 wont do that! gotta go get ready... agggh, hope it goes good considering i have no idea whats going to happen

will post update... ok shower time then work

resissssst....... and i talk shit and babble

kk bye wish me luck
 
xanax. calms u down. makes u tranquil. take too high of a dose then u get (tranquil)ized. duh.
 
well i got back from work about 5 hrs ago (5pm) and just wowwww, trying to walk to shower was hard enough, they day went reallllllllllllly fast too?? I have morning tea at 10:06am EVERY morning for the past 8 months and before i even realised the time was 1230pm... and I never ever miss morning tea. WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFF????

I did feel the effects but i cant explain it to the full extent but it's definitely one or if not best drugs i have ever had over cocaine and xtc, MJ - and i don't know why?....

so I got my first bottle 2 nights ago umm they are called alprax 2 - 2mg under it says -Alprax 2?? 2MG

This is zannys right?

Sorry for all the noob questions but I used to be a pinga pill popper a yr or 2 go and now I've found these, I'm really starting to like them a lot!!

Could a bottle of 50 in there be enough to get me addicted / suffer withdrawals? I've seen some nasty benzo withdrawals on youtube that's all...

Ohh yeah, i got the bottle here on my desk each bar is 2mg, if i took two bars tonight (4mg) would i experience the most extremeeee high??

Any recommendations??

Okay CHEERS!!!!!

Thanks again, all answers much appreciated?

you'd prolly take them, end up taking more because you don't thinki you feel it. then you'd end up doing some stupid shit. then waking up in some random place with a huge mind fuck of all of it
