Do you mix your medication with alcohol?

[suffocatingseraphim]

Fuck, how does such a drug exist.

No idea man, it's wild that it's such an everyday one you can get at a pharmacy for little to nothing too. Almost gave me the same high as codeine?

Yeah it's a deliriant, it can cause terrorfying hallucinations. I might be wrong but I think it can only happen if you take more than 200mg or something. There's people on YouTube who do it just to get high but since there is a common symptom of seeing spiders and insects crawling on you and on walks etc that's enough to not make me od on that shit. Plus you can die from an OD but it's very rare and is more discomforting than taking SN.

I'm thankful I haven't hallucinated much on it despite having psychosis, but I usually take 200 mg a night and have gone to 300 mg before. It'd be a pretty hellish way to OD since you can start panicking once it becomes really difficult to breathe, it's really uncomfortable haha. Def wouldn't recommend it as a drug to anyone who doesn't like delusion inducing meds or sedatives.

Yeah, i think in February I mixed quite a bit with lorazepam diazepam and some other random pills I stole from my mums room. I'm guessing since you're body has adjusted to that large of an amount that you are more tolerant to it I assume? The most I've ever had from that was auditory hallucination of people shouting in my ears and swirls on objects, but since I have heart issues now from bulimia, the laboured breathing effect scares me a little. I hope you don't suffer too much : ( the chest tightness and pain is scary, I don't want you to experience that

Oh goodness that sounds like a pretty scary combination, what was it like to experience back in February?
I've managed to build up a pretty strong tolerance with most sleeping meds since I used to take ambien regularly as a teen, those hallucinations sound very unsettling too to say the least.

I'm right there with you with bulimia as well, it is super frightening when breathing gets tight. I hope the same for you to not have to experience that kind of fear or pain, you deserve peace no matter what! <3

I like a drink on the weekend but never drink and mix it with my medication (Clonazapam) as it's Very dangerous to do so! Plus l need my medication to help keep me calm and help me sleep!View attachment 66927

Lol I mixed Clonazepam with an entire bottle of liquer earlier today and had a deep sleep that lasted 3 hours. Then I felt misery because I woke up.

But how exactly is it dangerous if it isn't lethal? Trust me - I'd be the happiest girl in the world if someone told me that was a lethal combo, but everyone on here says it isn't, so what does it do to a person instead that is cause for worry?

I don't often drink-
But yep i take some meds no matter if i'm drinking or not.
Others, i'm a bit more careful.
Things in the 'pam family i'm a bit more careful with- and trazodone i'll just drop whenever i drink and simply not sleep. (Trade off, right?)

There are some medications i mix to get the result of drowsiness so i can relax and rest... but i don't combine alcohol and meds to get similar results.

I think it's a matter of what works for individuals, and also what is safe. I have always been told to watch out combining alcohol with my meds because it will do some of the things mentioned already, yes, but it will also ramp up my depression.
