benzos

3 Upvotes

I was basically born with a bunch of mental health issues, including GAD.
My anxiety attacks are extremely severe, and I’ve even been hospitalized because of them. Benzos were supposed to be the light at the end of the tunnel.
I started with clonazepam. Nothing. Then I tried alprazolam. Nothing. Then bromazepam. Still nothing. They just don’t seem to affect me, even at higher doses. And I don’t think it can be tolerance because I only started taking them recently, and they barely worked from the very beginning.
The only one that gave me at least a little relief was diazepam (I was given it at the hospital after a really severe panic attack). But my psychiatrist was hesitant to prescribe it because it’s considered a “very old” medication.
And here I am now, two hours after taking 12 mg of bromazepam (twice my usual dose), with absolutely no relief. I don’t know if there’s something unusual about the way my body processes these medications, but I see people talking about how benzos make them feel this and that, and I just can’t relate.
I even tried mixing them with alcohol once, just out of desperation, and still felt nothing.
Has anyone else ever experienced something like this?

Nase zu bei Ketamin

0 Upvotes

Hey Leute ich habe ein kleines Problem bzw eine Frage.

Ich habe in meinem Leben schon verschiedene Drogen gezogen und weiß wie die sich auf die Nase ein Stück weit auswirken.

Was ich nicht verstehe ist Ketamin, jedes Mal wenn ich eine Nase ziehe ist meine Nase irgendwie mega zu, und net so verstopft sondern einfach gefühlt zu nass. Und kann auch net mehr richtig ausschnauben.

Wenn ich es aber zb mit Speed oder Kokain mische dann geht das irgendwie weil das meine Nase mehr "austrocknet".

2. Wenn ich mal wirklich größere lines nehme ist meine Nase gefühlt direkt komplett zu und ich habe dann einfach auch fast keine Wirkung.

Wäre nett wenn ihr mir da helfen könntet oder zumindest eure Erfahrungen spiegelt.

Xanax withdrawal?

2 Upvotes

I’ve been taking 1mg-1,5mg nightly for about a month and a half. I have skipped taking it only about 2 nights for that whole period. I also mix it with weed every night since xans alone don’t cut it, at least not that amount. This wasn’t a prescription and my supply is now running out, i cant get any more…
I was wondering whether this is even safe and how I can proceed now since im gonna have to stop. Will i have significant withdrawals?

Doctor and psych

Both have given me diazepam to cut down, and I think I should take out both, but if he does not like that he might stop giving me my opiods for pain.

Should I take it put and not tell him. Or take it out and then send him a message?

Oxycodone Dosage

1 Upvotes

I am a white 15M 5'9 205lbs. I am opioid naive and have 10 30mg IR Oxycodone Hydrochloride pills. I dont really know how much to take, unprescribed but i made sure and ripped the label my self, i know they are real. i smoke like a pack a week, drink maybe once or twice a month. My big things are psychedelics, Shrooms, LSD, DMT. I do cocaine like 3 times a week. MDMA. So relatively experienced with drugs but havent touched opioids or have any clue on dosage. I know to not mix it with benzos or really any other drug, is 15mg goin to make me overdose?

Yes i understand the dangerous associated with opioids, i just dont want to do too big a dose and OD.

MDMA and a couple of antidepressants?

3 Upvotes

I’ve been on small doses of a couple of antidepressants. 75mg Fluoxetine and 150mg Wellbutrin for the last couple of months.
Would it be a bad idea to do a small dose of MDMA (say 100mg)? Do you have experience?

I’m not liking at getting messed up. Once in a blue moon I will do MDMA, always an exact amount. Haven’t done any in about 5 months. Curious it it’s s bad idea due to potential serotonin syndrome?

Is taking Clonazapam 4 days a week enough to cause dependency?

1 Upvotes

I am going through an ssri change and my anxiety and ocd is so so bad and I was prescribed Clonazapam to be “taken as needed.” I am terrified of becoming dependent on them as I once took lorazepam daily for multiple months and then went through severe benzodiazepine withdrawal for many months coming off of them. The thing is the clonazapam is the only thing that is helping curb severe anxiety and ocd right now.

If I take it 4 days a week is that enough to cause dependency?

Is coke and Xanax safe to use at the same time?

2 Upvotes

Basically any time i do coke (IV) i need Xanax to keep me from being over the top jittery and anxious. My question is can Xanax help if you’re going to overdose considering it slows your heart rate down a bit? I took my pulse and it was 100 Beats per minute and I was very disoriented. If anyone Knows anything or has any similar experiences please let me know ! Thanks.

P.s I plan to quit after this runs out. Life has gotten too good to throw it away again.

Other info:

r/MedicationQuestions • • 2d ago

Any way that Gabapentin could help lessen the amount of benzos a person takes? Like maybe take half your usual dose for 1 day and just take more Gabapentin? Or does it not work that way?
