i am genuinely curious. it seems like at least half of this website takes benzos every day, rx'd or not.
it may come to you as a surprise, but i myself am a user of benzodiazepines. i have a script for klonopin and i also take other benzos, if i have access.
so i wonder.... how many people on this site take benzos?

Nope. But I used to have a pretty nasty xanax habit for like 2 years back in the day.

all sillyness aside, i would like people to answer truthfully. i really am curious to see how many use benzos and how they are acquired. i realize this could go in odd, but i figure more people post here and the population for this "study" seems pretty to have a lot of variety. which is always good when doing any kind of research.

I use daily for periods of 1-3 weeks never a month or more. Than I'll do a fast taper, usually with a celebratory "eat one too many" on the last day and then I'm done for a month or two.
I'll be the first to admit I don't actually have clinical anxiety. But them shits pair well with pot and make for a good sleep, on top of making a boring day fun.
That's just the way it seems to go.

Hardly get anything from them except for Xanax that made me a little tired. Taken Xanax, Ativan, and klonopin. I noticed klonopine a bit better with some smoke. Now queludes kick ass!

I just went straight cold turkey, and it wasn't by choice. My main, and really only source, got locked the fuck up and I all of a sudden was without a source. At all. So 2 days went by, a week, 2 weeks...and at that point I was like, well, I may as well end it here then.
I had no idea at the time how dangerous it was to not taper with the type of habit that I had. And yeah man, it was hellish. Straight hell on earth. My anxiety was off the charts. I could barely hold a normal conversation. Had the shakes and the whole nine. Felt like I was daily on the verge of an all out panic attack. My chest felt all fucked up too, like it was about to cave in or some shit.
I drank a lot to cope. I don't know, I think it was somewhere in the neighborhood 6 fucking weeks before I actually started to feel somewhat normal again.
I just got waaaayyyy too used to being on that shit in social situations. Then when I wasn't all of a sudden, it was like I had to learn all over again how to interact w/people not high off bars again. I mean shit, two years of daily xanax use is a pretty long time.

I have around 2020 0.5mg pyrazolam pills in my fridge. I use them as sleep aid after tripping and as a last resort should a trip get out of hand. The later has never been the case fortunately. I bought them on the clearnet for very cheap and theyll last me a lifetime.

And by the way, I originally didn't get on xanax to cope with social anxiety, or to get high.
I was mixing it with coke (I know it sounds like a recipe for death but I think it's actually safer than it sounds -- in fact I think I've heard where benzos have been used at times to aid minor cocaine OD's?).
Whenever I used to skitz out too hard a xan bar would be just what the doctor ordered
Those were back in my crazy fucking partying days. Nowadays I just drink every once and a while and trip. That's it. I might smoke a bowl or two too when I'm tripping. But outside of psychs, bud, and alcohol...I don't do shit anymore.

I use benzo's daily for a few months at a time, then taper, then don't use for a couple months. Then repeat for the past few years.
I get all my meds from an IOP. Ive never really had medical insurance, or have ever been prescribed anything by a doctor.
I have psoriasis and the only steroid cream that worked was prescription, and when i went to the ER because my skin was so bad, they gave me a prescription for a tiny, highly over priced tube of steroid cream from CVS.
I had no other choice, so i started looking online and found a site to get that same cream without a script, a tube four times the size for half the price that CVS was charging people without insurance. My skin has been fine since over the past couple years without the help of insurance or a doctor.
I started digging deeper, found that you can get basically any script from an IOP, all without insurance, fair priced and delivered right to your door.
You just have to become your own doctor and understand the effects of the medications you are ordering.
Thats how it started for me.

I love benzos, but they don't love me.
Every time I'll start using them I'll end up locked up, usually takes about a month.

I've used my fair share of them but really never understood the allure. Xanax is OK. Having them for an amphetamine come down is always choice. But other than that its such a weird subtle high. Don't even know if your high or not.
I don't really see a lot of recreational value but they can definitely be handy tools.
