PE jumping on the paleo bandwagon

why reusable containerz?

While you definitely need to be careful about benzos, I think you're going a little overboard about the dangers. I mean you can google around and find horror stories about people quitting chapstick and chewing gum.

Anwyway, nybody know if there's a Thai Pepto-Bismal equivalent?

who was that guy who was like the king on Bangkok, but was getting married off by his family, he had a blog, a Farang abroad, PE or something? He had a pic of 'the rock' as his avatar i think?

What's a good valium mg dosage? They give out 5mg pills but those seem kind of weak. 25mg ok?

Went to bed in the afternoon, I just woke up (midnight)

I don't suffer from anxiety, depression, I don't even have insomnia. It's just that my sleep schedule is messed up, since I go to bed 1 hour later everyday, more if I deep run.

So if I just take a Xanax once every week or so to fix my schedule, I will be fine? My goal is to get something that kicks in as fast as possible.

Can I just walk-in in any pharmacy and get it? Or will I have to try in the dodgy ones in the dark soi of Sukumvit?

The pharmacies that do sell it usually keep it under the counter because it was recently made prescription only due to its use as a "date rape drug". But if you ask for it by name they will probably sell it to you, they just don't keep it on display.

i d be surprised if it wasnt prescription already 4 years ago and pharmacy didnt care

When I was first in Samui 25 years ago, EVERYTHING was over the counter. Amphetamines, Opiod narcotic pain relievers, basically anything you wanted just had to ask for and they'd sell it to you. Probably stiffened up a little bit since then I'm guessing.

i use this stuff, it works well, guessing its safer than xanax

Anyone know any pharmacys in Bkk selling valium or xanax OTC pm me or post. Would love to get some buzz on.

you can get a script easily, just tell em you can't sleep or that you're afraid to go outside

anyone know a contact or company in Vientiane that does Visas?

Ill try a few pharmacies in my busto neighbourhood, then sukumvit, will report if success. If not I'll get a prescription.

@GoingGreen There is a few touts in front of the consulate that will do it for you, but they ask 4k, you can bargain it down for 3k I think. But you don't really need it, just pay them 100b and they will do photocopies and fill the paperwork for you. Then just queue and pay, there is nothing interesting to do in town anyway in the morning.

You come back the next day, get your passport back and you can go straight from the consulate to the border by minivan.

I haven't been able to hook up at my normal places. I think it's a coup thing. If your successful please post a tr.

Just set your alarm clock for whatever time you want to wake up and get out of bed. Man up.

if you're looking for something not heavy as valium or xanax you should try Atarox, you can buy it everywhere. 10mg worked for me(65kg) when i was changing my sleep schedule. don't remember the price but it was basically free

25mg is ok, 10mg with about 50-100ml of whiskey much better.

All those long-winded responses you write shrink up in value when you dispense a gem of advice to mix benzos and booze. Worst. Advice. Period.

It's something you can get physically addicted to in months and buy unlimited supplies of over the counter here. That's pretty dangerous. Especially when you could get cut off cold turkey any time, the way things go in Thailand. Not everybody does their homework first. The pharmacy in BKK I went to, they gave me 20mg for 600 baht without blinking ! Hospitals and clinics will rarely give people more than 0.25mg tabs unless you establish that you're an addicted long term user. So the pharmy in BKK gave me the equivalent of 8 10 packs.

BKKYOLO, if you insist on something that will put you down in minutes, then go ahead and get the Xanax. But if the pharmy gives you the 1.0mg tabs don't take more than a half bar and wash it down with 1 beer or 1 shot. Mixing with a small amount of alcohol will strongly enhance the effect and it's much better than taking a full tab. Expect to wake up 6hr later feeling pretty crisp, the xanax will be completely worn off by then.

If you're thinking about doing it again the next morning or upping your dose (because you will think about it) just remember you were warned.

It's fine if you are just taking one, to help you sleep. Which is the recommended adult dose.

The people that run into problems combining the drugs are using Benzos recreationally which means they are taking 3 or more at a time.

I usually have a Xanax before I go to bed after a night out because I prefer to sleep through my hangovers, and if I don't take a Xanax I usually wake up 4-5 hours later needing a piss, and then can't get back to sleep, and end up feeling like crap all day.

As someone who used to suffer from chronic insomnia, when you wake up after a Xanax-assisted 9 hour sleep it's pretty much the best feeling ever.

BTW local pharmacy here in Lamai charges 250 baht for a strip of 10, 1mg generic alprazolam (Xiemed) tabs. Best 25 baht you will ever spend.

They work very well together. If you're intelligent about it, you can use that to your advantage big time. You can keep benzo dosing very small for the same or even better effect, substantially increasing the time it would take for addiction to develop.
For the guy looking to get to sleep instantly after grinding his MTT its the best method IMO. He can get the same effect with a much smaller chance of developing Xanax addiction.

It's people using benzos recreationally that kill themselves. If you're going out on the town with a full pack of Xanax in your pocket, things can go bad for you. If you're sitting at home with a liter if whiskey and your whole benzo stash, and just taking them to get a buzz going, things could go very bad.

If you're washing back a cap with a shot then tucking yourself into bed, it's an excellent way to half your dosage for the same or even better effect.

Holy cchhiittt, am I agreeing with Spiv on something?

What a lot of people don't realize is that a big part of the hang-over from alcohol is not dehydration and toxins ect but actual physical withdrawal from the ethanol.

Ethanol and benzos both work as GABA receptor agonists. Since they work on the same receptors in the brain benzos will crush a hangover instantly.

Still I think Xanax is a poor choice, Valium is much safer, much less addictive, and tolerance builds up much slower.

Also, as Spiv said, the pharmacies here will straight up give you the 1mg tabs. That's way too high a dose for a beginner. Much better to start at 0.25mg with a shot of booze.

Here's a great JRE podcast with a drug expert. There's a section in there where he explains what I'm talking about with the alcohol withdrawal being the root cause of hang overs.
