Alprazalam warning.

I got 250mg alprazalam. I mixed it with 120mg propylene glycol. That's the last thing I remember doing on April 6th. I was found unconscious and unresponsive. My left lung had collapsed. The x-ray just showed a white blob where my lung should have been. I don't know if this was simply a bartard moment, or if it had to do with this particular alprazalam. I got it from that trippy cat in the UK.

I'm currently in a hospital on a ventilator. I was able to talk for the first time in 6 weeks today. I have to relearn how to eat. I likely have 3 to 4 weeks left here in the hospital.

Be safe fellas.

There has never been a reported case of alprazolam causing a pneumothorax (your lung collapsing and becoming a white blob). So you would be the first person in the world to have experienced this as a side effect.

Much much more likely is you got fucked up on a heroic dose and did some superman flying through the air shit... landing on your chest and popping a lung.

Xanax is the devil. >:)

Did you have any physical trauma? I can't think of any reason, albeit I'm not a physician and only a paramagician, that even a heroic dose of alprazolam would cause a pneumothorax and as another person in here said you'd be the first recorded. Nor do I get why you're on a ventilator, over a month later. Ventilator use with chest tubes (assuming you have a chest tube) is also highly risky and not done unless the patient is unable to breath for other reasons such has head trauma or sedation.

Are you sure you don't have aspiration pneumonia and are receiving positive airway pressure from a vent?

Whoever asks for pic proof on this one is an asshole.

I hope you get better OP, that's a rough way to go down. That is a ton of aprazolam to take at once... 10 mg is the max recommended dose per day. That's 25 times that... Just be safe OP.


[3 Points] therealgovernor:

Why would you take so much alprazolam at one time though? Like I really can't imagine that going any other way but straight up zombie mode.


[3 Points] LostSomewhereInSpace:

This is why I tend to avoid powders at all costs with benzos. It's very possible you took a small amount, or what may have seemed like a small amount and wasn't, blacked out, then unknowingly took lots more. Shit, you could have easily got a small amount on your hand and just licked it without thinking about it. I remember when a friend got powdered phenazepam which is much more dangerous and did a loooot of stupid stuff for several weeks. Very glad he didn't die from that. Very glad you didn't die from this. Take it as a lesson, and I hope you have a speedy recover.

Also: As a lesson to everyone in general, do not prepare your drugs while already under the influence, and if possible if you have to have powdered benzos, put them locked up somewhere and give the key to someone you can trust so that you can't get into your stash after you are barred out.

you prolly plugged it!!


[2 Points] Dr-Robalob:

You have no place dealing with pure alprazolam as you clearly don't have a clue what you're doing. No sympathy from me.

So like, what the fuck did you do to your lung man? Do you have any idea? Where's your phone?


[1 Points] topknotch89:

[1 Points] DarkKnight_1111:

did you really do all that at once??


[1 Points] boofk:

I'm done with xanax too. I used it for a decade and never had a problem until this year. I flipped my car in a ditch totalling it. Luckily walked away with no injuries or dui. Then got caught doing dope and narcaned twice(living hell) on xanax. Then ended up in ambulance on another night. Then wrecked my brand new car with dope and crack in it(no memory of buying either.) The cops called me a cab even though they knew I was fucked up. Somehow I lucked out of possession of heroin, crack and xanax and another dui. I'm fucking done with xanax. It is literally ruining my life and it's not even something I really enjoy, I usually just get it for free from people.


[1 Points] AndThenHeSays4:

250 MG alp???? I'm no expert but isn't that a lot to take in one go??


[1 Points] None:

That's xanax all right


[1 Points] budsmokersonly710:

glad you are ok - hope you don't plan on ordering anymore powder


[1 Points] lolyourefucked:

This is why I dont make my own alp... I have a scale that will weigh out to the mg.. but 100-130 for under 150$ at 4mg.. id rather pay that.. Pas and Expressdude are my goto guys..

but then again, I take these because I need them.. i've been prescribed Xanax or alprazalam for 10 years.. and lost my insurance...and my dr wont perscribe me them anymore due to finding blow in my system.. oops... oh well.. haha

I can say that if you do regularly take them.. like I do.. Do not stop cold turkey.. I recently ran out of my medication for about a week..and had a seizure on the 3rd day after never having one in my life.. Be responsible with xanax and you will be fine.. be a bartard and expect shit like this to happen..

Glad you're okay though man!


[1 Points] lolyourefucked:

Okay after reading some of theses comments, i've got to respond..

I have been on xanax / alp for 10 years now.. My tollerance is through the roof.. I could take 8mg's of xanax and you'd never know..

of course I dont take that much unless im coming down off something.. but for some people, it really helps.. I have social anxiety.. I cant be in large crowds or events without it.. or i have a horrible time.. but I never get to the bartard stage.. I used to in highschool.. hell even after.. but now i am responsible about what I take.. Its actually funny when I ask my friends if they think im on xanax because its always no.. and most of the time I am..

The thing i hate about it is the tolerance build up... especially since i've switched to the DNM's from the 1mg footballs.. but hey.. its cheaper.. last longer.. and works just the same..

always dose responsibly..and thats hard to do when you get barred out.. because you dont think you're as fucked up as you really are.. I remember those days..

but tl/dr Xanax is not the devil.. yes people take it and take it irresponsibly, and that I do not agree with... but some people take it because it actually helps.. like me =]


[1 Points] night-addict:

How tall are you? Weird question I know, but it's actually important here.


[1 Points] None:

It's not the xanax. I saw below that you said you smoke weed. Smoking weed is known to cause a collapsed lung. It increases your risk. Just bad luck for you I guess.


[1 Points] None:

Are you sure you didnt just chug too much and blacked out and,i dont know,somehow did something very silly that could cause this? Ever taken gas before,clutching at straws i know.


[1 Points] None:

I invite you to never do something like that again. Don't even order that shit, you cannot deal clearly. Heal and get better!


[1 Points] None:

You just dosed too high like a tard and blacked out and did something stupid.

This is the reason why bartards have a bad name. People don't know how to handle drugs correctly.

"Be Safe" How about you do a little research on the dosage first before you neck a bunch of it... Stupid people shouldn't have access to drugs.


[1 Points] MrMolo:

How does one survive 250mg? Oh well...feel better.


[1 Points] FrozenMCVegetableCok:

To hell with all your health problems.

What about all the arms people have had to gnaw off the morning after blacking out and waking up in bed with swamp thing? The use of some "heavy equipment" has more dire consequences than others.


[1 Points] Lucid_Enemy:

This sounds like a opiate od.... usually when hit with narcain you puke and the airways aren't opened up yet if you far enough along and the puke goes into the lungs and they collapse and turn into a white blob


[1 Points] tearfulkis:

All the days ive lost and couldnt remember on xanax... really scary.


[1 Points] heroing:

You obviously did something stupid, don't blame the Xanax and accept the fact that you fucked up.


[1 Points] None:

Good thing I've never done any alprazalam.
