like I said above, if it works for u. Awesome but I still disagree when ur not a dr and even so to be recommending people to take such drugs and to be aware Inless it’s a big issue to know the medium and what the risks are but also use them only if needed ( like yourself )

For people who struggle with anxiety, feeling relaxed and at peace can be an addictive sensation. Doctors prescribe Xanax as needed, but someone with anxiety may take alprazolam more often, even regularly, because they feel like they need it to be normal. This is a form of prescription drug misuse or abuse.

Taking the drug specifically to feel relaxed or happy is abuse, and it can lead to addiction to the substance.

Finally, Xanax is very risky because it is often mixed with other drugs. This practice is extremely dangerous since Xanax can increase the intoxication of other substances.

People who take prescription opioids to treat pain may mix these drugs with Xanax, which increases their risk of accidental overdose. If you take a prescription medication and your doctor wants to prescribe Xanax for as-needed anxiety management, let them know what other prescription drugs you are taking before you begin Xanax treatment.

Nonmedical use of opioids and benzodiazepines like Xanax has been a serious and risky feature of the opioid addiction and overdose epidemic. More than 30 percent of opioid overdoses involve benzodiazepines, according to NIDA. Drinking alcohol on top of these drugs is even more harmful and too common.





if Xanax was a cure for the issue than these companies would never ever sell it cause they want you to be so dependent but addicted for life. these modes of action are not good but also make the user a addict and also more prone to the issue just like anti depression drugs or pain killers

if cannabis is addictive for u it’s ur self addicted it’s not physical . Ur pill is hints why u think a proven and def cemented in shoipd only be used temp and addictive and mind alt drug is fixing ur anxiety when u prolly wouldn’t even have it without this decade run with a mind alt bad drug. It’s like a pain pill, it should only be used for temp use and whatcha know ur only doing it later for the fix of if, it’s not fun and all ur being is a junkie to the substance. Cannabis doesn’t do that and I’m def not gonnea do real junkies and addicts will do for their drugs or think a mind alt drug like Xanax . I know sooo many people and seen who are def addicts as same level as meth on stuff ur talking about so I’m good and their dr did and was the entry to the drugs . Trust me the opioid crisis was from our dr’s and they def didn’t look out for the their costumers like many issues.

blame cannabis all u want but I’m not paranoid or anxious all day if don’t miss a hit or not smoke . That’s addiction is when u can’t and the high isn’t even there but ur just trying to fix the addiction. never got that from cannabis , even food like junk food can do that or sugar but not cannabis

I feel this whole reply was an attack on me personally and nothing to do with helping the OP. I will refrain from replying in this thread any further.

OP,
Been there....Done that! Yeah, it happens that too much of a dose all at once can put you into a spin. I have gotten there from licking the mixing bowl after making some brownies. It wasn't a feeling of being high. It was just very uncomfortable. The best advice I ever got for dealing with that, is to just take some deep breaths....count to five as you inhale....count to five as you exhale....repeat. Others like to walk/run/jog it off. I haven't had that happen in quite awhile, though. I used to smoke all the time, but it got to the point where being high was my norm, and not being high was the occasional thing. I had to quit for a few years just to re-set. Now, I basically "micro-dose" weed or concentrates -meaning one hit per session and that each hit is very small and easy to handle. I try to have things to do so that I don't just sit around and think too much.
In all honesty, weed isn't for everyone. Some people don't like the way it makes them feel at all and they tend to get the panic/paranoia feeling from it. My older brother is that way. The solution for him was just to not smoke.
I think I have learned that weed typically works to enhance whatever mood I'm in. It usually doesn't "change" my mood from one thing to another. But everyone is different.

I definitely agree there is a small sub section of folks that it just isnt for them and no matter what they do or try it just aint gonna agree with them its either for you or it isnt

Uh-oh. I'm suffering from the same problem and the panic attacks have taken over my life. It all started 1 day when I smoked some high potency weed and I haven't been the same since. I even went to the hospital because I thought I was dying. I've been suffering from weed induced panic attacks for the last few years now. At 1 point I was having panic attacks back to back all day long for months and months and it only got worse and worse. I can't even leave the house anymore due to how bad the panic attacks got. It's really messed my life up. It's ruined my life. The only thing that helps me to get rid of the panic attacks is by drinking alcohol. The doctor gave me some Benzodiazepines but I haven't bothered taking them because I heard if you drink alcohol and take them it can cause your breathing to stop. All I can say is over the past 6 months my panic attacks have got a little bit better and I don't get them as much now so there is Hope. But when I smoke too much weed I still do get the odd 1 or 2 panic attacks and I still can't really leave the house that much. The panic attacks have gave me Agoraphobia and I'm not sure how to fix it. I guess it's a mental health problem I will have to deal with for the rest of my life now. I'm just glad the panic attacks are not as bad as they were 2 years ago. Sometimes I even have panic attacks when I'm not even smoking too. The worst part of having a panic attack is feeling like you are dying everytime you have a panic attack. It's the worst possible feeling Ever. If you ever find a real fix for the panic attacks let me know because I am desperate to get back to normal again.
I beat housebound agoraphobia if you feel like talking dm me

Everyone will have some miracle or what works for them

The reality is the difference is DISORDER Vs random anxiety

to suffer from a true anxiety or panic disorder, a fucking walk isnt going to help you or cure you nor is lavender bath. those things are self care and they can help people who dont have disorders calm themselves but they literally will do jack shit for a legit disorder.

You have a legitimate medical condition that causes your brain to go into flight mode.

When you have an attack when you are smoking its because something trigger flight mode once, than anytime you do it you now have attacks, you literally have to retrain the amygdala the only way to do that is through exposure therapy, exposure therapy needs to be done slowly you cant just go hit a gravity bong and expect to retain your brain

you will also need to get to the root of the problem and solve anxiety elsewhere in your life where it probably happens.

Ima touch on this.

Youre not wrong but youre not right either.
Youre blurring lines.

Xanax is not "often" with other drugs, people who abuse said benzos sometimes mix them, that doesnt mean samwise who uses his medication properly is abusing them. Youre mixing actual drug abusers with people who use the medication correctly than labelling someone who follows directions and doesnt abuse as an abuser than throwing fear at them.

"Taking the drug specifically to feel relaxed or happy is abuse,"

He is not taking the drug to "feel relaxed or happy" hes taking it to minimize legitmate disorder which causes severe physical and emotional side effects.
That is not abuse, that is using your medication as required, additionally hes not taking it daily therefore it snot dependency which for the record dependency and abuse are different.

Youre mixing ideas of opiates and benzos together and spewing just a bunch of heathline.net information without actual backing.

This is why we have such a stigma with mental health disorders and medications and youre basically just throwing that all back at samwise instead of realizing theres a large other component to it of people who use certain medications responsibly

The first page did say by a user who was saying he mixed booz and rx. Its a big rec and thing people do abd abuse. People like many things start to correct issue and than it becomes their addicted fix. Point was that drug does stinulates same as booz and that mix which is popular is def used and very dangerous

i read everything and samwise never said that...

Im not disputing that it is dangerous but you went hard on him and attacked him

the first page someone else mentioned taking BENEADRYL which is an OTC not a benzo OR (not with ) a little booze.

another user said they drank alcohol was given benzos but NEVER took them because of said reason.

literally NO ONE said they mixed booze with a benzo

Xans are the devil… Theres people taking it responsibly yes at very low doses or whatever they need. I messed with xans once, never again. Its like alcohol blackout but to some even worse. I stay far from alcohol too. I personally dont care for it anyway.

Ive seen people go crazy without them tend to be the functional type on it. Seen people just in and out of coma Im not doctor but when youre sitting there gasping and spazzing… I highly suggest not abusing them.

Some will literally black out and wake up unaware of all the trouble they almost got in… Ooof.

My wife would get panic attacks and get the drunk spins from getting too high we found black pepper just a little bit in the palm of your hand and that works for her

I'm pretty sure the OP was talking about "greening out" -the all-too-common experience that most marijuana users go through at some point....right? That's what I thought they were referring to.

I probably told this story on here before but back in the early 80's, I got ahold of some really good Columbian buds and I had an inexperienced roommate who wanted to get high. We smoked a joint and the guy ended up grabbing me and attacking me because he thought he was dying and that I had poisoned him! I told him the same thing -just take some big, deep breaths and count on the inhale and exhale. Eventually he calmed down, but it was such a traumatic experience for him, I don't think he ever smoked again.....my fault, I guess....but, that Columbian was off the chart! I wish I had some of that, today!
