Title: Xanax AFTER drinking
Post by: gtgeorgz on June 02, 2012, 04:22 pm
okay so I've only tried xanax once, took a 0.25mg sliced pill before i went to bed last week. Didn't really feel anything apart from diminished anxiety plus i slept like a baby.  8)
So tomorrow night i'm going to a lil party starting at 9pm were i'll probably be doing Mephedrone and a small amount of alcohol (probably 3/4beers at the most). AFTER the session, probably about 2/3AM in the morning, would it be safe to take 0.25/0.50mg of xanax? as i'd like to sleep well after this session but i realize that alcohol and xanax don't mix well.
Thanks for help and sorry if this is kinda noobie.

I've done it after coke and booze.. Tend to sleep very heavy! I'd wait till about half hour after your last drink before you drop it and no more than 0.50mg...

I'm not the safest druggy, but I love to take xanax or ativan when I'm hammered.  It puts me to sleep realy fast so I can sleep through the "I'm a dumbass and drank way to many beers" part of my life.

if you're waking up too early, it's probably because you're dehydrated, either mix water in between the beers and/or chug some glasses before bed. that said, there is nothing makes me sleep like a brick more than alcohol and a benzo.

Noo, I take it because it knocks me out fast.  I fucking hate being drunk and annoying.  I used to pop 2 of them and say to my ex and whoever was around "well, good night folks, I'm going to pass out in about 30 minutes"  it worked like a charm too, I could almost set my clock by it's ability to knock me out.

It is a dangerous combo, be very careful or might not wake up.

You'll want to be careful.  I used to have a script for xanax to manage my anxiety because I was a raging alcoholic.  I've since quit both because I couldn't manage it. 

I'd take a 1-2mg of xanax with my first drink of the night and it acts as a dual potentiate.  (Xanax makes you feel more intoxicated, alcohol makes the xanax more potent..)

Be very very careful, both of these are depressants and will slow your breathing.  I've heard stories of people dying from the combo.  :(

Combining benzo's with alcohol is generally recommended against because of the risk of respiratory depression.

Realistically, if you are in good health, drinking  4 beers followed by half a milligram of xanax is not likely to kill you though. If you are not used to benzo's at all there is a fair chance of retrograde amnesia back to the point you started drinking though.  The extent of that effect is hard to predict, but i would suggest doing this only when some friends are present - not just to get you home safely, but also to tell you what happened in case you do forget completely.

Transient amnesia doesn't sound like that bad a thing until you actually experience it. Having no clue at all about what happened the night before can be pretty upsetting. It's unpleasant to not have a clue what you did when you were somewhat sober, very different from being too drunk to remember details.

Um you kind of sound like a lightweight(not a bad thing, i'm pretty jealous actually) but I think you should be able to figure that out yourself. It's your body. See how you feel at the end of the night you'll probably pass out from the beers anyway.

haha yeah man its true! i have a low tolerance to everything expect weed and alcohol as they're the only drugs i do frequently i guess. If you read up a couple you'll see that i didnt bother taking the xanax in the end :)
