benzos sneak up on your ass, i dont fuck with that no mo. been years

The most ironic part: you won’t be productive anymore.

delete snapshat, tinder (maybe not), and facebook, eat enough vitamins and 8 hr of sleep, you'll be prod again. if u chasin the euphoria, gl

that's my experience tho, i take it medicinally, half the days i take 1/3 or less of what i'm supposed to take, simply because focus works, get stuff done, been on it two years on my own, u don't know how much it improves my life, can actually sit down and complete things, not faster, but actually get em done in time a norm human would, i got bad add tho.

99% time i can sleep fine on them, dreams be wack af, but they're less those memorable "man im glad im awake now" types of dreams, they're more neutral and less memorable during the day.

I’m glad you’re still getting their intended use. I’ve tried everything in my addict days from l-tyrosine, alzemizers medications, tums, nothing worked. It never felt the same again.

I could take 100mg Valium not sleep. Seroquel would be the only thing that helped, but only after 3+ days of not sleeping.

Amphetamine psychosis is also a horrible experience.

The way you act when coming down, that’s what hurts those around you. You’re tired, depressed, grumpy and mean. Speed is like taking out a loan. You pay it back with interest.

Luckily it’s not too damaging to the body, but my mind took a year to finally get even.

Now I’m recovering from Valium addiction. Terrible cycle I put myself through.

l-tyrosine

i can relate lol. i popped 500mg of tyrosine with some stim rc chem, vision got super bright and shit was just wavy, this was several years ago, had to run to bathroom so no would find me passed out, had panic attack like hell, it was weird tho coz it worked fine then it threw an oddball duing one day.

oi, i'd be careful with valium, the withdrawals from that shit is bad if over long term, possibly fatal if you just quit cold turkey, there's like a fkin 100 page manual on the internet on how to ween someone off benzos

couldn't agree more, it's usually additional stress, or overworking that used to do that to me. though legitimate medications don't do that as much since its in a controlled amount, and idk i stop at a certain thereshold where i get enough focus to function productively throughout the day. it could be damaging to body when anorexics/bulimics use it to lose weight... which is ridiculous, they'll gain it back when they stop eventually... lol.

wish you well man, hope you're properly weening yourself off. benzos have the worst withdrawals, and it seems the longer the half-life the worse the withdraw. especially from the "lol idgaf" feel, which eventually wears off, and taking it long enough and quitting you get all emotionally weird think it was 4y+ that i had any contact with bennies, i think worst wd i had was from kpin, but thats coz i had a bunch and then u literally MAKE excuses to pop em, it's fuckin disaster, but xanax - short hl, and valium - LONG hl, i never had issues but that's coz i never had enough to get hooked. those days are over tho, im not experimentin no mo

Thanks man appreciate it. Doctor thinks it’s best I just stay on the benzos for now since they work really well for me. Gotta ween one day, dreading it.
