The vast majority of benzos don't have a recreational value...

As you kind of say, if you are feeling good off them then that's probably because they are relieving your anxiety, rather than actually making you high.

That's me.

I mean, I have typically always had trouble holding myself back. It's led to some pretty wild times, but some pretty **** times too. Even after I got better, I used drugs I thought wouldn't be a problem in reasonable moderation but still ended up brining back my psychosis.

Ironically, I really didn't go over the top when I got my first acute episode. I guess years of using drugs recreationally on a semi-regular basis caught up with me though.

But I've turned a corner now... I know if I want my to go fully down the road to recovery & stay healthy after that, then I just can't take drugs full stop.

Possible trigger:


It's just not worth it.
