It seems like there are a lot of people that can definitly relate to this, and I know it's happend to me a good number of times - you are having fun, chilling as you pop [insert benzo here] .. maybe it's Klonopin, or Xanax, or even Rohypnol.. post your storeis here about the night you forgot and the next morning your friends told you how you got nekid and stole a car, you then drove to your ex-gf's parents house and knocked on their door with a hard-on ... shit like that..
My story (and there have been a LOT) ..
For some reason that has happend multiple times over the last few months, and I will be damned but I am STILL not certin HOW I do it..
I take a large amount of Klonopin as I have no opioids (oh yeah, TRY to give as much info as you can about the dose and whatnot).. somehow the next morning I wake up, if I am lucky I made it to my bed, if not then I usually end up on the floor.. now, I would guess it's from stumbling around my room and slicing myself all up on the mountains of computer parts I have laying around, but I wake up with cuts all over.. the most notable was when a bl'girlie was flying in to visit (from Cali, you all know her) .. so the night before I decided I would get a good nights sleep, but one tunred to about seven and I remember nothing, well, I woke up the next morning with blood all over my face and arms, I got up and my pillow was like saturated with blood.. I went to the bathroom and cleaned the blood off me and say that I had BADLY sliced my back and shoulders up, as well as my legs.. no idea what exactly happend, but this has happend a few times...
Another time was when we went to Zen in Miami - I had taken about 4mg of Rohypnol before the party.. I ended up overdosing (well, I was not responsive to anyone for hours but they did the right thing, realized I was still breathing, so they protected me from security or medical staff) .. I woke up in our hotel room and asked what time the party was (we got there like 2 days early) .. yup, I lost a complete day that time, and to take advantage of it the people I went with constnatly tell me shit I alledgedly did, most of which is bullshit but some thing I wonder about (such as mistaking another girl for my GF and making out with her - though I cant imagine an attractive girl I dont even know letting me make out with her..)
Ok, lets here yours.. try to offer as much info as you can about WHICH drug it was and HOW MUCH you (think you) took.. I know there are some funnier stories out there... like the chick that took a bunch of Halcion and woke up wondering why her ass was so sore.. classic, truely classic!
 
I don't even know where to begin.
Xanax Story Number 1:
My very first ever experience with xanax began with me taking 3mg sometime in the afternoon. I was with a guy who I had a major thing for. There are only three things that I remember about that day. The first is kissing the guy (we have been together ever since-going on three years). The next thing I recall is driving down the highway and hitting a small animal, perhaps a skunk or cat. The last memory I have of that evening is waiting for my newly aquired boyfriend to make the bed. I woke up on the sofa the next morning.
Xanax Story Number 2:
I started out the evening by taking 5mg of xanax. A little later, when those pills began to kick in, a friend offered me some opium tea. I accepted the offer, and drank a soda can full of it. All I remember after that is driving on a bridge way below the speed limit. I think I was trying to get to the store to buy some smokes.
Xanax Story Number 3:
All I remember about this episode is that I had taken some xanax, I have no idea how much, and ended up at a casino. I got a jackpot and rode the bus home. That was the only time in the history of me going to casinos that I actually won over $100. Score one for me.
Ativan Story Number 1:
Actually there isn't much of a story to this. It was my first time with ativan. I took nine pills, don't remember the mg. Then I drank some wine. I was out. I don't even know how I got home. This scenerio has happened to me a few times now that I think about it. I really should be more careful
 
3-4mg (maybe 5 or 6) xanax plus significant drinking. Went to a party. Apparently as this is all lost) I started loudly asking for pot from aquantancies (alreadly apparently looking messed up). Was poitned towards a dorm room apparently just walked in and sat down on some peopl doign some homework.
They were dealers and smoked me out...but I am still coming up on the XanaX and am begining to lose coherance. Luckily my druggie budy fiends me at this point noties I am looking pretty sick, gets a vomit bag and gets me to the restrom before I can mess up this strangers room (luckily he was cool and we got along fine later). My buddy needs to leave me for a moment to tell my other friends he is taking me back. Apparently at this point I was beginining to look really white and people were getting worried.
I apparently felt fine and took off during this period of time (no doubt having forgotten any reason to stay). I wandered back to another friends apartment full of sober friends (but luckily understanding). I am babbling completly now and the people there have no idea whats wrong with me or if they need to get me help.
My friends back at the pary are despsertaly searching for me even enlisting the aid of an RA (cool individual). Evenetually they check the correct apartment and my druggie friend assures them there is nothing to worry about (it did overdo it but clearly was not in any imminent physical danger).
I wake up the next morning in my bed. Thank god for good friends others it would have been impossible for me to end up in serious trouble or even in a cell.
 
Before a long bus ride(30hrs) I quickly ran down to the nearest pharm & convinced The indian dude there to give me some Ativan("I'm european, everyone in europe gets this prescribed, please, I don't know any doctors here, etc..."). On the bus with both my parents I downed around 6mg ativan. After an hour It still didn't seem to kick in, but i remembered some temazepam I had scored a few days ealier, so down with 20mg of that & 1mg ativan. I don't remember anything of the bus ride, but when i woke up at the SA border I found myself with this huge stone rhino(10kg) that I had bought. & my dad said I was hollering at him to buy me beer(!) everytime we stopped. My told me I kept offering Ativan to her & other strangers on the bus.
Usually when I go with some friends to blockbuster to rent a film, we'll notice that some films look vaguely familiar, "We saw that one, what's it about?". Thats because of all the benzo's & weed consumed during a movie night at home!
 
My boyfriend and I were drinking, probably had about 5 beers each then we decided to take some of my benzo's. We started out with 4 2mg pills each. Lorazepam.
Thats all I remember, the only evidence we had of anything going on the next day was that there were 15 more pills missing from the bottle (not good) and a very strange message on our voicemail of my boyfriend saying he would be home soon.
I woke up in the morning fully clothed in a new set of clothes in my bed my boyfriend was wearing a new shirt and laying on the floor beside the bed. Neither of us has any clue at all as to what went on. Still don't either.

Sadly I was alone in the flat the night in question so only the cat knows what really happened. I had a few lines of coke (OK half a gram) and a few whiskys. Then decided 3mg of Xanax was exactly what I needed to get rid of the coke and allow me to get my 8 hours. Shame I'd forgotten about the whisky...
I woke up to the sound of a very pissed off cat. Cat was pissed off because I'd crashed with my head in her litter tray (clean thank God) and she was bursting for a piss. I stumbled off to bed as the cat took care of her pressing business.
Can we have a thread about "stupid things done while on GHB"? I've got a winner involving a couple of oversexed American girls, a Urkainian stripper and sample from the diplomatic bags of a South American diplomat....

so many of these, but im only gonna up two.
we were at my cousins house. i had eaten 2.5 bars and was drinking a henican. the last thing i remember was laying on the couch, but apparently i went to my cousins room with my girlfriends good friend and we had sex. needless to say that caused a lot of problems.
another time me and my friend went to this bar that where a live band was playing and i ate 1.5 bars and drank 1/4 of promethazine with codiene. i dont remember leaving the bar. my friend told me later went a club which i didnt believe until i asked people who go all the time and asked them if they saw me there. and my friend ended up wrecking his truck that night.
 
well this isnt a benzo story but close enough. i used to work at a doctors office calling in RX's all day long. Now i had been taking 15mg of sonata everynight and one night i snorted it. you break the caps open and its a fine white powder that glows bright under UV. snorting that one pill put me on cloud nine for about 2 hrs and then i fell asleep. then next night i snorted 3. i started seeing small visuals in the wood paneling in my attic (where my comp is located). the next day at work i looked in up in the 2001 pdr and it said the overdose was around 100mg. i figured oh well and as i was calling a huge list of perscriptions i threw one in under a friend of mines name. well we went and picked up 50 pills later that evening i gave her 20 and i sniffed about 6 pills and imeadiatly was hallucinating very vividly and felt juust a general fucked up feeling(VERY VERY similar to Ketamine). we kept doing more alothough this is where my memory starts to fade. i went home and right b4 bed i decided to do two more pils on my nightstand. and then lay down and i figured id be out i woke in the morning and ALL the pills had been broken apart and all the poweder was gone. I DONT REMEMBER DOING ANY MORE THAN TWO OF THEM. its my guess i did about 400-500 mg up my nose. i felt fine the next day too. but i blew about a hundred and ten bucks so i havnt done it since.
 
I figure ambien is close enough to a benzo. So the night invloved snorting about a dozen ambiens, drinking, and smoking. We were running all around the city, we got a boomer, I hooked up with two girls in the back, we went to my father's office to grab more pills, got surrounded by security with billy clubs, and got out of that mess somehow. The rest of the night was a blur, but I have memory flashes of some different parties, but I'm not sure what happened at them.
 
Xanax story #1
This happened three years (or so) ago while I was in high school:
2nd period: finished agebra test, took 4mg xanax in the bathoom next door
3rd period: sat in the wrong desk. The girl who sat there normally, who I really liked at the time, asked me to move; I (allegedly) told her to shut up and calle her an asshole.
Between third and fourth period: fall down stairs, get carried up by nasty girl who had a crush on me.
4th period: total blur. This wouldn't be so unusual except that it was band, and I was told by friends that I successfully played clarinet.
Between 4th and 5th period: drop all my books, stand in the hall looking at them, swearing loudly, until I was led to my next class by a friend.
6th period, and the rest of that day: more blur.
Xanax story #2
I took several with my cousin (we used to steal them from my grandma when I was like, 12) and settled down in my aunt's hot tub with some beer we stole out of her fridge. Woke up the next moring at my grandmother's house a half mile away. That was my first experience with the evil's of xanax induced amnesia, a phenomenon which has led me to quit eating the damn things.
 
Oh yeah I forgot; only PhreeX can put a Trip Report in Other drugs because he owns blue light.
Any my story goes as follows. 29 coricidin yeah I know it is stupid. Anyway I could not walk and I was waiting I in line at a party. Security asked my friends why I was on the floor. They tried to lie to them but soon I was sitting on a curb with handcuffs. They asked me what I had taken and I tried to say DXM but I stuttered on the X. So they thought I had taken a lot of MDMA. Soon I found my self-drooling on a van just waiting for nothing. My friends took me to the car and laid in the back seat, there I went to a world where everything made sense and no sense at the same time. I can remember opening the car door and screaming, "What time is it". I heard some strange voice say two thirty. The next day I felt like I had eaten my internal organs.
 
Funny I was talking about this just the other day.
I went through a stage (a long stage) of drinking with valium & totally blacking out at least once a week.
So one time I took maybe 15-20mgs valium & went out drinking, I think i was in a kamakazi phase at that time.So I wake up the next morning & one of my flatemates call us all into the bathroom, the sink is COVERED in leaves & dirt,-weird no-one has a clue how it got there.
So it was a big mystery...until i discover a pile of wet clothes covered in ,yep, dirt & leaves. I had to call my friend who I was with & he was like "yeah you crazy bitch, you decided to go for a swim in the river" mystery solved , I had a VERY memory of it after he told me.
I dont think I've ever hurt myself as a result of pills, lots of unexplained bruising but nothing major, I've always been lucky to have good friends around.
 
9th grade at a friends party, decided things would be much more interesting if I popped some Temazepam gelcaps, I can't remember the mg but I ended up eating 7 or 8?
In hindsight this really wasn't such a good idea, most of the kids at the party were sober and this girls mother was home.
Apparently I kept falling off my seat and passing out. I fell off a bunk bed hit my head on the side table and laughed because I said it didn't hurt (everyone starts to realise something is wrong with me because I'm bleeding)
I was unable to say anything to anyone that made any sense and I had an argument with the girls mother (So embarrassing)
I vaugely remember being driven home by my mother who has never spoken about this incident again (Thank God for parental denial)
The worst thing is trying to remember those lost hours of your life. I hate that I can try *really* hard and not remember any of this.
____________________________________________
Oh I almost forgot about this story (Not sure "almost forgot" are the terms I want to use?)
But while on holiday, I took er... an unknown amount of an unknown Benzo (Sorry I really can't remember what)
Decided it would be a good idea to go skiing (Once again in hindsight.. IDIOTIC IDEA) I made it to the slopes with my ski's on before the benzo's kicked in...
Somehow made it up the slopes...
And started to make my way down..
I crashed into a tree on the way down :( with really low branches, two friends had to get me out because I was stuck in the branches of the tree
I vaugely remember this, that is how I know this actually happened.

Ambien sucks! I had a script and called the doc. and told him they did not work; so he puts me on 30 mg Temazepam. I took one at 6:00 last night another at 10:00 and another at 2:00 A.M. I did not get to sleep until 8:00 A.M. Plus I drank Five 12 oz beers and NOTHING. Am I a freak of nature or what? I am 6'2 and weigh 225 lbs.
I can't fucking sleep. I have done NO stimulants in two weeks. Please help PhreeX!
 
^^^ feel your pain, for the past 2 weeks I've gone to sleep after the sun has come up, I can't seem to shake it either :(
 
I find that weed+benzos will put me to sleep no matter what (maybe that soma and codeine are necessery in small doses as well). In any case it feels great...like I am noding out.
 
A friend of mine woke up feeling very grogy after taking quite a lot of valium and reached out for something to drink.
He grabed the first bottle that came to hand and took a swig before realising it was Clearasil (a spot fighting face wash!).
It nastily burnt his throat and he had to get his stomach pumped and was on throat and stomach soothing meds for a couple of weeks!
 
Last night , take .50 halcion. Woke up (just now!) wearing swim shorts when I went to bed with underwear on!
 
i have some good rohypnol and flunipam stories
one off them:
me and some people was popping rohypnol and drinking some beers, i toke around 5 rohypnol, and then later 3 flunipam(the biggest dose)..then me and my girlfriend was going home, and it's COLD, i live in norway and it was winter and lots of SNOW, when we finaly got home i dicided to take the car and drive around a little bit...VERY SMART....it all went pretty well intill we very driving along a small road and meet a car, offcours this had to go wrong, snow all over the place, and i drove out off the road and got stuck...i stoped 2 cars and they tried to help me pushing the car up, but it just dident go, i was realy a mess so they definatly realised that i was on something, after they left me and my girfriend desided to go and find some other help, but we dident find help and decided do go back to the car, BUT the car wassent there where we tought we left it....and from this point i dont remember a thing before i am back in my girfriends kitchen and my girfriend has JUST woken up her parants, i have to ecplane that the car is stolen and what we where doing driving around in the middle of the night...........
the next day my girlfriends father dicides to drive around and see if i can find my girfriends car, AND OFFCOURSE he does, EXACTLY where i left it, WITH the keys inn.................
i got a little long,sorry
and sorry for all the spelling mistakes...
 
*snickers*
once i took 6 pills of yellow klonazepam (sp?) and ended up calling my partner by my ex's name- TWICE (yeah..we were uh fucking at the moment)! didn't really remember the rest of that night either. the loooooong drive home is quite hazy too. not a good idea, in hindsight.
i took some xanax (no more then a milligram) and drank a LOT at a house party one night. i guess i was talking shit to this one guy (things that might make a sailor blush!) i was sitting next to on the couch, telling him things i wanted to do to him. well, i wasn't even aware i had done this until the NEXT evening, when he told me about every little thing i said...in front of a roomfull of my friends.
both were terribly embarrassing.
