Any suggestions? Xan.. seems popular.

Can full names of drugs be mentioned in this context?

As long as they aren't spelled out letter for letter. For example, Xan, X*n*x, Xannies, etc. are all fine.
thank you will stick to that

 
I agree, I think xan aka alpraz... works really well. It has a very short mechanism of action, ninety percent of peak effects are achieved within the first hour.

 
I agree with everyone 100%.  Zanies get to work quickly (with 15-20 minutes--sometimes less), and you'll be out within the hour if you want to be. The half-life is very short, so if you take it every night, you will become physically dependent.  You might experience withdrawals between doses as well.  

 
Shorter half-life is easier to get quickly addicted .... Just a thought!

All the best.

 
If you can get some Mianserin (tetracyclic antidepressant) Is great for sleep and not addicting. Its an old type of AD thats mainly sedative.

Your doctor will also prob prescribe this wery easy. The other option is Mirtazapine wich is similar.

That's a very informative list! 250 hours, I had no idea. I thought long was more like 100. Learn something new every day.

2E, I think some of those 1/2 life estimates are on the high end for people who use regularly or take more that prescribed.

I did not include the z drugs since they are really not bzos. They have a super short 1/2.

Again check out wiki b****s.

 
Thanks for the impressive list - I like tri@zol@m and mid@zol@m best because of the very short half-life if you want to just have a short night's sleep. I have tried the mid@z and it worked great for me but have yet to try the tri@z. But there are other good ones too on that list - I guess it's a case of what works best for you.

 
lorazepam

1/2 life 15 hours. it has prolonged peak effects 6 hours

no hangover

 
I find that the short HL ones are not as effective for sleep because although they may knock you out quick, you'll wake up a couple hours later and have to take another to go back to sleep.

I think the concept of addicted can be blurred when it comes to sleeping medications. Although Benny's can be physically addictive I think most sleeping meds are psychologically addictive because once you experience how they help you sleep, it seems very difficult to sleep like that without them. That is also why I've stopped taking them for this purpose. They are great at helping you sleep but once you you get used to using them, it is VERY difficult to sleep without them.

In my experience ANY medication that helps me to sleep is "addictive" even when the med has never been seen as addictive. I take Benadryl(Diphenhydramine) to help me sleep which is very effective but just like anything else, once I have taken it for a few days, I can't sleep without it.

One thing I can attest to about Benny's is that you never want to get physically addicted to them. They are one of the few meds that can actually kill you when withdrawing from them and the symptoms are horrible. If you think you had problems sleeping before you started taking them, those previous symptoms will be nothing compared to the weeks of no sleep when you stop taking them. If you do still use them for sleep, I highly recommend you do as they tell/warn you and do not use them for more the seven days. Even at only seven days, I can almost guarantee that on the eighth night without them, you won't sleep. Same is true with just about any med including the Z meds IMO. 

 
xanax ,5mg to 2mg can be taken before bed to get a good sleep, if you havent taken this drug before or built up a tolerance

i took a FLEXERIL 5mg (Muscle Relaxer) yesterday around 3pm 12/29/14 got home at 7:30, ate dinner and went straight to sleep at 8pm, muscle relaxers also knock you out and give you good sleep /default_smile.png but in the morning you wake up a bit groggy lol out

Jelag, I agree 100% with you on this one. Several years ago I was prescribed El@vil for sleep. Worked very well and did not wear off in the middle of the night.

  1. xenxra @ xenxra: @WTF7218 it may as well be that way with how little effort some of the people on here make to find information that's exactly where you would expect it to be.
  2. ontovzik @ ontovzik: When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
  3. ontovzik @ ontovzik: I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
  4. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  5. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
  6. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  7. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
  8. Alkazar @ Alkazar: @NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
  9. C @ Cheesus: Thanks xenxra
  10. xenxra @ xenxra: @Cheesus yeah, use snote
  11. P @ psychedpsych: Trump is cracking down….
  12. P @ psychedpsych: Hackers are the scum of the earth
  13. N @ NYStateofMind: so it was easy bc of my history
  14. N @ NYStateofMind: I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
  15. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  16. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  18. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  19. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  20. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
