    Love-hate Relationship With This Love of Mine positive exp #104533

    I've been taking etizolam for a while now, ever since a 'business' acquaintance of mine introduced it to me and got me in with a sorta secret online vendor selling his (or her) own press Etiz pills. Although Etizolam isn't 'controlled' here in the UK, you still need someone to supply it to you.

    To start off, Iย’ve had very in depth experience with virtually every drug from DMT to opiates. Iย’ve also gone through moderate-heavy use of benzodiazepines, and the dosage that I take is not recommended. Iย’ve had chronic insomnia and anxiety for years, so the use of Etizolam for these will be addressed as well.

    My New Perspective neutral exp #109633

    I wrote a previous report about being an addict to RC benzo drugs for a year. I pretty well got my ass kicked by these legal benzo drugs, which I was thoroughly and wantonly abusing. I was feeling pretty emotional when I wrote it . I feel much better now, and I have a new perspective.

    Drank 2 strong beers (6% ABV) around 10 pm during a movie with my girlfriend. This in no way affected the intoxication I experienced on this compound, but was noted in case the lingering effects of ethanol contributed to the subsequent 'black-out' that I experienced.

    My friend Sandy (not her real name) and I had both developed quite a heavy benzodiazepine habit. We had both been used to taking about 8mg of Alprazolam each, every day through our school semester.

    Im 25 weigh 165 I have a moderate tolerance for benzos. I consider them a tool type a drug , used for spacific purposes(come-downs,panic attacks,sleep,alcohol w/d,ect.)
