I took 800mgs./=4 Tuinal 200mg. caps a night....
so 400 mgs. secobarbital + 400 mgs. amobarbital.I went from a methaqualone addiction[forget
the dose but also multiple Rx's/doctors...at
the time, it was NOT a scheduled drug so no
DEA # required....to a barbiturate addiction.Yup..the key to non-habituation is to not
take them every night. At the time however,
I would have an anxiety attack if I could not
fall asleep. Don't sleep now but don't freak
out about it at my ancient age lol.I didn't drink alcohol with barbs at first...but
after the 4 Tuinal were not QUITE doing the trick[just before I got off them with my docs
help], I did have a little wine chaser with them.
But cripes...the HANGOVER from that dose of barbs!Hey...at the time, if I had accidentally offed
myself, at least I wouldn't have known what had happened, right? ;)Having said that...I wouldn't recommend barbs
for anyone...there are safer hypnotics available
these days[even if you might drive, make food, or have sex with Ambien and not know it lol].
----------> You took 800mgs?=4 tuinal caps? or 8=800mgs Secobarbital?
