Valium VS Xanax? - GoFuckYourself.com

tical · 06-26-2007, 10:24 PM

Never tried xanax before but I have 2 bars here... I think thats 2mg each? I'll do some further research before I take them.. I'm just assuming its 2mg right now.

I've done valium before, usually takes about 20mg to get me nice and pleasant...

Are the two comparable? Should I split this in half or just go balls out and do the whole thing?

Valium's a muscle relaxer while Xanax is an anti-depressant.

escorpio · 06-26-2007, 10:33 PM

2 mgs. of Xanax is exactly what you want if you take 20mgs. of Valium.

Doesn't matter. They are both used for sleeping.

JP513 · 06-26-2007, 10:57 PM

Having said that . . . I don't have much luck with either. Ambien is where

it's at!

woj · 06-26-2007, 11:08 PM

Don't forget to chase it down with some booze for maximum effect

Mr Pheer · 06-26-2007, 11:10 PM

Ambien CR is nice. I've been off of it for 4 days though, even though its prescribed to me. Decided I didnt want to take a chance with building up a dependence for it. I can sleep for about 6 or 7 hours now without it after taking it for 6 weeks, was only able to sleep about 4 hours before.

Nope, he's right, although their main purpose is for anxiety.

valium, falls within the drug classification of benzodiazepines.

Benzo's include xanax, valium, ambien, halcion, etc. etc.

basically all work the same way...the molecules hit the blood stream, travel to the brain & work on certain neuron receptors (much like alcohol in that its the same effect as a central nervous system depressant)

valium is in fact used as a muscle relaxer in certain instances (as well as sleep aid) but these were not the intended uses of the medication

benzo's were originally made to treat seizures & severe anxiety (like freaking out because u got stung by 30 bee's & think u might swell up anxiety), as they slow down the overactive receptors responsible for them

of course now valium & xanax are used as alcohol for the suburbanites who refuse to admit they have a drinking or marriage problem

hahaha good one

pr0 · 06-27-2007, 12:21 AM

to answer your question

xanax is a much stronger, faster acting (but shorter life-span) drug

2mg of xanax & a glass of wine, you probably won't remember what you did exactly the next day, not that you get out of hand like a drunk, you just suffer memory loss the next day of a perfectly uneventful evening

valium, you gain a tolerance to quickly & it may act like xanax for a few weeks

my TIP to you

stay away from both...have a nice couple glasses of scotch & smoke a cigar in the hot tub if your having anxiety issues

otherwise a year goes by & you remember about 10 minutes of it later on in life.......chuuuuch

mattz · 06-27-2007, 12:22 AM

They are both benzos, just xanax is wayyy stronger

2 mg of xanax will have you floored and puking

2 mg of valium will do nothing

you are completely wrong, dont give drug info if you dont know

both are anti-anxiety drugs

they both are very similar, both are benzos, xanax is way stronger though

BIGTYMER · 06-27-2007, 12:22 AM

You idiots. pr0 speaks the truth. And if I had to pick one I'd pick Valium as it stays in the blood 10x longer.

Klonopin has both of them owned. 12 hour active life-span & doesn't taste like ass if you drop it under your tongue (since its made for seizures)

Oh & its addictive qualities are about 1/10th that of xanax & valium.

My advice, stay away from them all!!!! Have a drink once in awhile

Nice to see someone on here knows what they are talking about. I take Xanax for anxiety. It works well for that.

tical · 06-27-2007, 12:29 AM

thanks pr0, sometimes its nice to pop a valium or two here n there...

i do it a few times a month when i'm stressed to shit... i'm not really into drinking (unless i'm partying) + it fucks w/ my appetite

i just had these bars sitting here for like 3 months and was wondering what to expect whenever i get the time to give em a shot

appreciate the heads up

sexxxydesign.com · 06-27-2007, 12:31 AM

Xanax is strong.. if you never took it.. go with 0.5mg first (if your table is divided in 4 just take one piece)

Have you tried Bromazepam?

drop 2mg under your tongue & let us know how it went in the morning

chances are you won't remember making this post

Klonopin is a seizure medication. It does have a longer active life span, but I found it to make me really tired. Much more tired then on Xanax. Not sure if the dose was to high or if seizure medications just make you more tired.

media · 06-27-2007, 12:37 AM

Tical, You're my boy.. I'll give you the straight dope on what to take..

If you're not taking it alot take xanax, .5-1.0mg is good shit, it will knock you on your ass.. It is not an anti depressant like some people have said in this thread, it is an anti anxiety treatment..

Another good one is Ativan. AKA Lorazepam as generic it's also in the family of anti-anxiety treatments, it has far less addictive properties as xanax, but packs a little less punch..

I only take xanax when I'm at the shows usually since I need to get some sleep. I was taking ativan twice daily when dealing with the drama of the last 6 months which you know all about. Which left me nice and comfortably numb.. I did not have any problems coming off of it.

So there you have it..

SuckOnThis · 06-27-2007, 12:42 AM

The bottom line is they both have the same basic effect. Xanax is faster acting than Valium and Valium stays in your system longer. 30 mg of Valium and I could still feel the effects 2 days later.

.5 mg of Xanax is close to 10 mg of Valium (unless its that cheap horseshit from India).

The problem with these drugs is they are highly addictive and the withdrawals are terrible. To abruptly stop Valium after an extended period of use is extremely dangerous and can cause seizures and sometimes death.

alias · 06-27-2007, 12:49 AM

xanax makes me more tired than diazepam

Dukes · 06-27-2007, 01:33 AM

.........Xanax is great for anxiety, Ativan was ok, to me Xanax is easier to get, I take 1/4 when I feel the stress and it does good for me;)

You Forgot Poland · 06-27-2007, 01:38 AM

Xanax is x10 times stronger than Valium (diazepam)

2mg will fuck you up.

dont take it for more than a week straight, you will develop a dependency and benzo withdrawals suck.

PersianKitty · 06-27-2007, 01:41 AM

Only thing I found that works consistently for me for sleep is a combination of nortriptyline and halcion. My sleep cycle got totally screwed up after surgery last September and the subsequent pain meds.

Valium just makes me not give a dang and xanax just makes me loopy but not sleep.

Eat better, and get on a treadmill. Run a few miles a day. End of anxiety.

It would be great to not have to take any drus at all. I have panic attacks and off medication it is not a pretty sight. So I am only on Xanax now. Before they had me on Paxil, Zoloft, Prozac, etc. Xanax is better then the other options. They have horrible side effects.
