I just copied and pasted this post as it was from the substance abuse section but the questions remain the same. Sorry Dr Bob for posting the same post in two sections, I'm a little medicated.----------------------------
Thanks so much for your replys guys, it means a lot. Unfortunately, I had a pretty serous relaps (a massive binge). I came into a few Euros (Pounds, Dollars - whatever your currency) I stupidly thought I'd have just a short celebration and was drunk for ....ehh.. lets just say a while. I was brought into hospital A couple of days ago (I think it was a couple of days ago anyway lol, yep, my time preception is all screwed up right now) and they where really nice about it I must say.
They gave me a few 1mg Rohypnol for sleeping an a bottle of Diazepam, Unfortunately it was not enough to keep the 'horrors' away, I have a pretty high benzo tolerance but try telling that to a nurse!! So like the idiot I can be I had a few beers to magnify the benzo intensity. As you can imagine they ran out pretty quickly so I started drinking again (not for pleasure I must stress but to keep the demons away, I cannot handle the horrors, they are pure hell, worse than hell, whatever hell is like, If you even believe in a hell lol). Things got pretty messed up and I was brought into hospital yet again. This time they gave me an injection, I have no clue what it was but it brought me down nicely. I was doped out of my mind!!
My mother was with me so they gave her the pills to take home this time. I think it was about 100 10mg Librium to last a few days but they also gave her A bunch of Clonazine (Thorazine in America), it's a mild antipsychotic. I'm supposed to take 100mgs to 150mgs for sleeping over the next few nights. Now when I read 'mild' on medical websites - this stuff knocked me for six, and I don't mean just made me fall asleep. I was completely disorientated untill about 6pm today when I started comming round, I'm still feeling a little dopey. I could hardly walk on the stuff all day. To be honest it's not a very nice drug, but we're all different right?
Do any of you guys use Thorazine?? If so would you be kind enough to tell be about your own experence please.
One more thing before I forget, I've been taking pretty large amounts of the antacid 'Renny' to help with the alcohol indigestion. Every website with Thorazine information warns against taking with any anticid, is this just a mild warning I can ignore as I'm usually a pretty tough bloke lol, except when it comes to booze of course!!!
Thank you in advance for any enlightenment on the subject. You guys are a joy to have on the net.
