It's been roughly 3 months since I've had a benzo and I just grabbed a blister of Xanax bars (5). Prior to that, I was getting 200 mg monthly regimens of Clonazepam.

I know benzo tolerance takes forever to diminish (if it does at all...) and probably never goes away, so I'm guessing I'll try taking two bars with just a few drinks if I want to use it for recreational effects.

Anyone have experience taking benzos after months of abstinence following large intake/tolerance? Was your needed dosage any lower? If it matters, for Xanax, I would usually take around 10 mg by itself or 6 mg and drink.
