whats the longest anybody has been on benzos? if you took some time off say it too, but im more curious about how long people have been on them continuously.

sorry if this sounds dumb but i was wondering and figured this would be the best place to ask

just short of 4 years

About 3 and a half weeks here. Then my cash ran out. I got mildly sick at work and decided not to ever buy more than what I plan on taking at once.

I don't know, I can't remember.

I think i went through almost an entire bottle of temazepam in like 2 weeks but thats like saying i went on a pubcrawl for 2 weeks.

Temazepam is like a standard drink inside a pill

i just got my prescription of klonopins. i plan on using it only on my days off.

Ha, I went through a standard bottle in about 2 days... although I did black out on the bus, I think?


I recently finished a three week binge which really wasn't worth the hassle. Benzo's are not massivly fun, just good for killing time.

Congrats.. your E-penor is bigger than mine.

I still went to school and was already under suspicion of being on something.

Every day for 2 weeks at a time. On and off. But, i have 53mg of kpins so a binge will go down if i cant get rid of some of these!

Let me know how that plan works out for you. :)

Couldn't tell you how many times I'd go pick up my 120 count of 2 mg Klonopins and do the whole "Oh boy look how many I have, I might as well have like 16 mg tonight to 'celebrate'..."

About 6 months - either xanax or valium, depending on what I had at the time. If valium, standard dose was 50mg+ a day; if xanax, it was 3-4mg. Sometimes I got rarer stuff like midazolam and nitrazepam, but xanax and valium were my 2 main ones. Then they were confiscated when I was arrested and I had to WD cold-turkey...fucking sucked.

Don't remember the whole month of february 2007

just short of 4 years

Same for me too. I still take them occassionally just not as much as it says to on the bottle. Cause I was going through a lot of stuff a while back (still am) but I cope with it better, and I would just get bad pains in my chest and pass out.

So the doc prescribed me Valium, and Ativan both at one point in time. I was on Klonopin for a short while too. But Valium is the one I've stuck with, cause it's just enough that I can still function and not be a total zombie.

Heh, I do the exact same thing. There always seems to be more special occasions once you get your scrip filled.

about 2 months straight, xannys and klonos. ahh that was a hazy time...

Just over 8 years now. Everything from valium to klonopin to ativan to midazolam.

Over ten (10) years Ambien, Xanax, Klonopin and Valium. Many times mixed with up to 800 Mg of Oxycodone (Oxycontin 80 Mg x 10)... Tolerance is an incredible thing!

Over ten (10) years Ambien, Xanax, Klonopin and Valium.!


ambien isnt a benzo

That is the biggest bunch of bullshit I've probaly ever read on totse.
Props to you :o

eh like 3 days...im pretty good at moderation..

2-3 weeks daily..

Wow. Are you sure you didn't die???

i second that

month and a half of blacking out almost daily.

never quit cold turkey, i had almost a whole bottle left when my connect told me she couldn't hook me up anymore. when those were gone, I never looked for benzos again
