Xanax
I've always wanted to try Xanax and after a few hard months in my life, I was willing to dumb down the baseline of my depression and some anxiety I had been dealing with some Xanax.
Recently I had gotten my hands on a Xanax prescription from my psychiatrist, I was quite excited to try some peach .5mg pills.
I saved these pills for a calm night I was going to have with my girlfriend and myself.
Trip Report
Substance name: Alprazolam (Xanax)
Street names: zans,zannies,bars,peaches
Dosage: 3 x 0.5 mg take orally in about 25 minutes apart each. I do not have any tolerance to benzodiazepines.
Setting: Apartment/Room
Mood: Anxious/Excited
Trip + 0:00
Pop .5mg at about 6:00PM.
Trip + 0:25
Nothing much after shower with girlfriend just feel a little heavy sensation in my limbs and movement.
Trip + 0:40
Mild effects so I decided to take another 1mg
Trip + 1:15
Limbs and coordination Definity are impaired/stoned but still able to feel sober enough to control what is happening and talk normally with no slurring. I do feel very very slow though. Thoughts are clear I just feel a nice slow sensation all around.
Trip + 1:45
Went to go get some snacks from a vending machine in the lobby of our apartment. Took me about 15 minutes of just staring at what food to get. Stoned ash.
Trip + 2:30
Definitely peaking around this time. Feels amazing to lay down and just be calm. Girlfriend gave me a back massage that definitely amplified to calming effect. Sex was also great at this stage. Xanax gave me a more of an emotional feeling rather than numb "staticky" feeling that some people describe.
Trip + 3:45
Effects are wearing down but Definity felt a nice afterglow and felt a little clumsy after.
Trip + 5:45
Sober enough to drive at this time to go home. Got home around an hour after an hour of driving.
Trip + 6:45
Arrived home and decided to redose this time and take 1.5mg all at the same time. I chewed the tablets for fastest effect.
(Im gonna restart the dosing timeline here)
Trip + 0:00
Definitely feel a bit slow and the afterglow of the pervious dose about 7 hours ago but I am excited for next dose.
Trip + 0:10
Already feel stoned again and coordination is clumsy. Ate a fire cookie though.
Trip + 0:45
Heavily impaired and I feel slow as fuck. Defintley a nice place to be at though. I am very calm and I feel clear.
Trip + 1:15
I feeling very very tired and sluggish.
Trip + 7:15 Woke up feeling refreshed but only slept about 7.5 hours. I could not sleep any longer.
Afternotes: Apparently I blacked out after my redose since I was texting my friend after my last trip report and barely remembering what I was saying to him. I also woke up at 5am with all my clothes on.
And some girl I had not talked to in months told me she was my soulmate last night as well over text (I do not remember texting her at all).
Overall I would say Xanax is a fun prescription to use on special occasions. Its easy to see how it can be habit forming since it dulls out really any boredom or bad thoughts. I personally do not have an addictive personality and am responsible enough to handle experimentation. I will be trying to combine cannabis and Xanax next time to see if they have a smooth synergy since I typically get a little anxious while high.
One word of warning is combining this prescription with any opiates or alcohol. Most overdoses occur when these combined substances take affect on your respiratory system.
Overall a 9/10 experience for me!
