Benzodiazepines?

[Azure]

I recently got prescribed some Benzodiazepines for my disorder, but after thinking about it for long enough, I decided I dont want to be held to life by some pills. I've done a bit of research and it seens you can overdose on these, specially if mixed with alcohol (dont have access to opiates and the like). Any advice on the dose/method?

Thanks in advance!

I do not think it works only with benzos and alcohol.
Although I could be wrong.

be careful benzo don't always work and might throw them back up. Look and see what ur dose is and the qty. Benzo are usually mix with other drugs to really put u down.

That's pretty bad, thought I had something here. I have around 50mg and a lot of alcohol, any recommendations on what else could I use?

Benzos are too weak, you won't die

 

[Ln42]

I agree with Tiburcio. It may land you in A & E but some people take that amount on a night out.

Benzos and opioids can be a potent combo, but good luck getting opioids.

 

[Corrie]

so I get tramadol and a benzo. Would that be enough for me?

 

[chronicpainnomore]

I doubt it. Tramadol is a very weak opioid, and the word opioid is used very liberally with tramadol.

It's highly unlikely that you would die from just mixing benzos and alcohol. It will most likely make you pass out/fall asleep and keep you dizzy for a couple of days.

Rohypnol 1mg, Dormicum 15mg x 4 or 5, Tramadol, Aprazolam plus more as far as I can remember...
Taken with a lot of whisky...

Slept for 2 days...

Not recommended at all.

I took 70 xanax, and drank half a bottle of captain.

Lived. Clearly. Was unaware of my conciousness for a week, and I still have brain fog 5 years later. Dont do it unless you add pain pills in excess.

Thank you everyone. Will try to get my hands on some N. Wish me luck, I guess!

From what I read, Rohypnol is quite powerful.
In the book "death without pain" they recommend it as a safe and peaceful method, combined with alcohol, as long as you do not have tolerance.
Obviously in quantities greater than one mg.
Unfortunately, here it is forbidden.

All benzos will do is make you unaware of your od. I survived 180 mg of Klonopin with heroin. Benzos suck ass if you ask me.

I seem entirely immune to benzos. For a decade my prescribed dose of Xanax was 10 mg per day (yes, TEN, lest you think I forgot a decimal point). Even 10 mg daily did little to nothing. To see if any dose would work I tried 120 mg once and that gave me a 5 hour nap, waking up feeling same as usual afterwards. In case you are wondering, nope, I didn't throw up nor did I feel sick at all.

That 120 mg was not a suicide attempt. I really just wanted to know if any amount would do anything to calm me down. When I took it I knew the LD50 for Xanax was so sky high that it would take many thousands of pills to die, so I damn well knew 60 bars wouldn't not cause any harm.

A hell of a lot of suicide victims do have benzos in them, though the benzo played only a minor role in their death, if it played a role at all. And it's not at all likely that you will die by alcohol poisoning. How many suicides by alcohol can you point to? I only know of one alcohol suicide and that would be Vern Troyer (Mini Me).

Dolores o'Riordan, got drunk, took benzos and drowned in her bathtub.

That was ruled an accident. So apparently you can die by alcohol quite easily, just so long as you don't want to die. Oh, the irony.

Reminds me of a Wisconsin mother who tried to get 190-proof Everclear banned after her 20-something son got drunk & drowned in the family pool. Again, he wasn't trying to die (as far as we know).

Benzos are incredibly non toxic. They may porentiate the sedative effect in combination with other drugs though.

Morphine and alcohol for example.

It still seems to me it's a crap shoot though if you die or wake up in hospital handcuffed to your bed so it's not for me.

 

[Miss clefable]

You need opiates

 

[KnightOfEnceladus]

As others are saying: benzos alone won't do it, and even the benzos+EtOH combination isn't guaranteed. I'd combine those with opioids and an antiemetic (metoclopramide or domperidone preferably, ondansetron works too).
