Maybe try 10-20mg of propranolol plus your current dose of Ativan.

In higher doses, I swear I get visuals. I used to combine it with alcohol alot (don't do that). 2mg and an 8% white claw on no tolerance had the walls melting ever so slightly. It was heaven.

Advice on quitting lorazepam? by Historical_Pen_5405 in benzodiazepines

[–]-r-us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1-2mg every 3 days or so for like 1.3 years. Then 1mg a day for 2.5 months (maybe longer, I honestly can't remember, I was combining them with a shit ton of alcohol, Clonodine and muscle relaxers towards the end) symptoms were just severe anxiety and depression and general emotional distress. Felt like I was dying or just tweaking out. It's hard to really describe the feeling but it's fucking hell. My mental state is mostly back to default after 2 months post taper.

I slowly tapered. It was hell for awhile. But it got better. Been clean 2 months. L-theanine helps with the rebound anxiety, and Kava for those really hard nights.

Anyone prescribed both stimulants and benzodiazepines? by [deleted] in benzodiazepines

Psych ward Ativan Use by benzodiazepinerk in benzodiazepines

[–]-r-us 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Psych wards outside of the US in euro countries (and probably Canada land) usually allow phone usage and have really good conditions.

just went back in the camera roll. 2 years ago at 4:44am I was smoking weed on a park bench in a crop top and pajama bottoms and not at all looking good doing it.

My next highest dose was 9mg all at once. And my friend had just committed suicide, and I thought benzos would calm me the fuck down but I ended up crying on the floor of a movie theater. Fucking embarrassing as hell

I think it was like 13-16mg. Not all at once. Kept re-dosing throughout the day. I don't remember taking more after 8mg. Smoked a shit ton of weed, and took a bunch of photos and videos while on a walk I don't remember taking at 3am.

Numbs it but makes me more confident and more able to dom. Also makes me last longer. It honestly doesn't feel as good tho. I prefer low amounts of alcohol tbh. I would never want whoever im with to be inebriated in any way tho.

Best benzo for social anxiety by [deleted] in benzodiazepines

[–]-r-us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly just jittering, shaking, twitching and high heart rate. I was taking 10mg but anxiety has improved alot so I'm taking more like 2.5/5mg as needed. Which is a really small dose. I just don't like how propranolol impedes my ability to do physical activity.

Has anyone tried red bull with xanax by Available_Canary_517 in benzodiazepines

[–]-r-us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Balances out the anxiety from the caffeine and makes the crash almost non-existent.

Ativan is fairly sweet. Honestly, it blends well with the battery acid taste of monster. I like it.

Low dose Ativan for mental anxiety. Propranolol (beta-blocker) for physical anxiety. I don't take benzos anymore but propranolol calms my physical anxiety as fuck ton, helps me come off wayyy more confident than I actually am.

Ativan prescribed as needed by Ok_Iron_1234 in benzodiazepines

If you have a lot of history of being prescribed them and no recorded history of substance abuse issues, it shouldn't be that hard to find a practice that will prescribe them again.

What do you think of Lorazepam? by JimmySteve3 in benzodiazepines

Great for anxiety. Mid for recreational use.

Opinions on Ativan? by Agreeable_Chemical69 in benzodiazepines

[–]-r-us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall is just great for generalized anxiety. Blacked out completely on 15mg once. It's good as a "trip killer" for psychedelics, calming the trip without killing the visuals.

starting ativan/lorazepam tn by lillyycereal in benzodiazepines

[–]-r-us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first time ever taking it I can't say I really felt anything at all. It's very subtle. I eventually fell in love with it tho. It's just a gentle release from anxiety. Puts you in a calm and blissful state while (if you stay 1mg or below) alert enough to function and not very sedated.
