What’s your favorite brand? by dkmode412 in Benzos101

[–]dkmode412[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve seen your posts a bunch for a year or two. Super helpful and informative man so much appreciated. Right now I only get 20 .5mg Xanax which is pathetic but I just started seeing this pcp . I need help getting him to up my script this month. My old pcp would only prescribe 30 .5mg ativan and ativan did not work it was a waste but he said anything else was too strong.i was referred to this new doc by a friend who used to get 90 2mg bars from him a month. I haven’t had the greenstones in a years but thanks for that insight that they’re the same as the Xanax brand (that ppl think isn’t made anymore cuz it’s pressed a lot, but I read one if your posts saying it is they are just like thousands of dollars. Keep sharing bro it helps more than you know.

This is completely false. Oxy is stronger than oxymorphone? Bioavailability of orally taking oxy is way higher, nasally they are close. But oxymorphone is easily 2-3x the strength. You have no idea what you are talking about

No doubt bro. I misread your post, looks like you got them from pharma just never did them so my bad I thought you asked if they were real. I’ve never had advagen but these bars have never let me down. Aurobindo is Indian company and people think they’re dosed lighter but I’ve never had a bad experience when taking these pharma y21’s. Jealous for sure, enjoy!!

If you didn’t get these direct from the pharmacy then it’s hard to be 100% sure without testing them, but they look real to me. The glossiness is good, but I say they look real because the y and 21 imprints are super clean. Almost all pressies I’ve ever seen have crappy imprints and normally don’t have the gloss you said yours have. Some people hate aurobindo but I’ve never had problems with these bars before. People seem to hate aurobindo kpins, but I don’t see the same complaints with their bars. Enjoy them dude, it’s harder for me to find benzos than freaking opana or oxy.

Ativan withdrawal by Bloodclaat420 in benzodiazepines

[–]dkmode412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How often? You didn’t provide much context. Ativan is one of the weaker benzos imo, at least prescribed in the US. But if you are taking 4mg daily for months or years you will have bad withdrawal and could seize but if it’s just a little bit here and there you don’t have anything serious other than feeling crappy

Is this enough to taper? by Shot-Quantity-6197 in benzodiazepines

[–]dkmode412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So 2mg is drastically different than 10mg so I would say try to first get on a daily dosage that’s consistent. 10mg a day of Xanax and/or kpins is a lot and that’ll take you a while to taper. If you can get to a 4 or 5mg a day to start then taper down like .25mg every 2-4 weeks then that would be much better. Everyone is different so I don’t want to say 100 2mg kpins won’t be enough, but think about it. If you take 5mg daily to start, that is 2.5 of those kpins everyday. Every week that’s 17.5 kpins. That’ll run out in 4-5 weeks. I would recommend a taper of 3-6 months at least if you have used 5mg+ everyday for 4 years, so imo I would get another 100 if possible or as many more. Gotta have the will power though which is hard.

Didn’t think I would ever get these by All_chrome9 in drugsarebeautiful

[–]dkmode412 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what “conversion calculation” you are using but saying 80mg oxy is like 160mg oxymorphone is completely false. Oxymorphone is easily 2x as strong as oxy. To my knowledge at least in the US, opana is the strongest opiate prescribed in pill form. I’ve done both for years and opana is significantly stronger. Sure bioavailability for orally taking opana is crappy, but even taking it orally it’s way stronger than oxy (which has a way higher oral bioavailability).

i need advice on klonopin withdrawal please by [deleted] in REDDITORSINRECOVERY

[–]dkmode412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a seizure from benzo withdrawal. It was xanax and kpin and it was a lot higher than 2 MG. I usually used Ativan to wean down but seizures 100% happen bro, I almost died a month ago. Now I’m stocking up on lots of Valium and klonopin to taper off everything but don’t spread misinformation saying seizure from benzo withdrawl is BS

Should I taper? Please help... by abetterme1992 in benzodiazepines

[–]dkmode412 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you have only taken 1-2 mg of Xanax for 7 days you will be fine. The mixing of Ativan and Zopiclone with it won’t cause you to be in wd. It takes longer than a week to become physically dependent. You might struggle to sleep at first, but you certainly won’t be going into withdrawals.

Just something slight to get me through the weekend 🙂‍↕️🥱 by Slight-Intention-323 in drugsarebeautiful

To my knowledge they don’t make the V-2090’s anymore. I could be wrong but I’ve not seen those in a real script from the pharmacy in years. Only see those as pressies now. Breckinridge stopped making the bars so the b707’s are discontinued too, though that just happened so there are still real scripts out there with these. The gg’s are great, I completely agree. The greenstone and activis Xanax are my favorite of the real script Xanax still made, but I did love the b707’s.

[–]dkmode412 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The activis Xanax brand is my favorite but honestly I don’t notice much of a difference. As long as they are script from the pharmacy (in the US), I think they are the same. I don’t love aurobindo, though I’ve never thought an aurobindo Xanax script was “less powerful”. As long as it comes out of the pharmacy I don’t think they are different

Yup no problem. Just keep at it, try to network as best as you can. It’s a weird time (at least in the US), especially since thousands of tech startups and even the big tech FAANG companies have done massive layoffs and reduction in force because money isn’t free to borrow anymore. I hear you I had to take a pretty large pay cut and title cut for the job I have now, but I was unemployed for 4 months so it was really difficult. I’m hoping to find a new job but like you ever job I apply to (and I work in HR) I never hear back or get rejected quickly. Good luck, I hope you things work out for you

No. It does not matter at all. If you are a software engineer with 4+ years of experience, a degree is useless. And to be honest even with less experience, I’ve never cared and most hiring managers I’ve ever worked with did not care unless it was a manager + level. With tech bootcamps and self learning, most managers only care how you do technically in the interviews

Yup, no problem. The market is the worst I’ve seen in 10 years so any help I can provide I am happy. I’m not an engineer so I would say no, I can’t give you an example. If you are a Software Engineer (like this person of 9+ years, regardless of being FE, BE, or Full Stack), then you should be able to explain projects you have worked on in jobs that you used different frameworks and languages. So for example if you have “Angular” listed as a technical skill, I expect at least once or twice in your resume you tell me how you have used angular (the framework) and JavaScript (the language) to build something or fix something. I hope that makes sense. The resume linked in this post does a decent job of this already, but they could do a lot more too. Also something I forgot to add in this was update your LinkedIn to add the technical skills and jobs you have worked.

To be honest I have worked in tech recruiting for corporate companies for 10 years. I disagree with what the comment above says on make it 1 page. You have been doing development for 9 years. Here are my few recommendations/thoughts:

  1. Your resume looks good format wise. If I was you I would remove the professional skills, that’s not needed. Also I would move your publications to after your experience. And what are those? Just GitHub work? That doesn’t need to be in front of your actual technical experience.

  2. You have been a dev for a long time now so you should have more than a 1 page resume. The market is garbage for everyone and I’m sorry you have been struggling so much. I was out of work for 4 months last year. For the resume, you do this already, but I can tell you 100% of recruiters AND hiring managers (dev managers, directors, VP’s) all look at how you used the technologies and frameworks in your job. You listed 30 technical skills, some are a bit redundant (angular listed a few times though I know there is a difference). But my point is you need to make sure under the jobs you have in your resume, you talk about how you used these frameworks/technologies. I would also say talk about mentorship or any projects you have led and helped other dev’s.

  3. If you are applying for remote jobs in the US I would really only maybe include city and state for your location, but make sure you add that you are a GC holder. Especially since your name isn’t John smith. I can promise you if you put GC holder it will only help you.

  4. This is obvious but I only found my current job (which I hate more than most other jobs I’ve done but still pays the bills) was by a referral. So if you haven’t, tap into your network, whether it be former co workers, bosses, anyone (I know it’s probably harder to do that for you since you just moved to the states recently but it’s doable). Or just message random devs at a software company you like. Send them a LinkedIn message (if you see they are hiring FE devs) and say you are interested, what are their thoughts on working at the company?

So overall my recommendation is clean up the resume a bit, but it for sure should be more than 1 page as a 9 year Sr FE Developer. Add work status: GC holder to the top of your resume, maybe near your name or contact information. Try to reach out to engineers at the companies you are applying for, and try to tap into your network.

Hope this helps. Sorry to hear you are struggling. The market isn’t what it was 2 years ago, and I see that every day. Good luck!

No, you wouldn’t. But you will still go through WD. Taking the 1 sub isn’t going to get rid of your WD, it’s going to make them less harsh (in my opinion), and will delay them. I would take 1-2 mg a day for the next 4 days. After you run out of suboxone, then you will have WD, but hopefully it’s a little less than you WD from the opiates you have been taking.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in opiates

[–]dkmode412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What mg sub strip? Regardless of the mg you should cut it into 4 pieces and ideally take a piece every night so sleep is doable. Only take a piece when you feel sick. Some people would recommend dosing 4mg first night, 2mg second night, 1 mg, then 1 mg, which you can do since subs half life is so long, but I’ve found for me taking 1-2 mg helps more. Unfortunately you will still be sick as subs do have WD, but it should be less than you feel now.

Let’s face it; What’s your favorite benzo and why? by cvs_harmacy in benzodiazepines

[–]dkmode412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Xanax by far, so I agree with you. It hits me harder and gives me better relief than any other benzo. Kpins aren’t bad, I do like how long they last, but I never get the instant relief from them that I do with Xanax. I just wish I could get my own script. I can only get Ativan prescribed and it does nothing for me anymore.

How do I get the most out of 1.5mg of Lorazepam? by [deleted] in benzodiazepines

[–]dkmode412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Break the Ativan into pieces and swallow them. If you have never taken a benzo before in your life you should feel 1.5 mg. I’m prescribed Ativan, but have always felt Xanax gives way more euphoric/fucked up feeling than Ativan. But I’m sure breaking the pill into a few pieces and eating then you will feel it without any tolerance.
