 I take clonazepam on a daily basis, I accidentally took .5 mg of Xanax this morning. I tried to throw it up, I do not have a good gag reflex. I know I got part of it up, I saw the orange from the pill in the toilet. But by the time I was done vomiting I was already feeling the effects.  I get drug tested in four days. I am 5'3", 106 pounds on average… Very active with yoga and other forms of exercise. I eat a healthy diet, very healthy. If I increase my fluids and exercise even more, eat healthy...is there a chance that I will come up clean on my UA test?  If not, I just need to be honest with my doctor about my mistake. I'm not sure how that will go… It may go a very poorly, or he may give me a pass for being honest. It's a crapshoot.

 I still can't believe I made such a stupid mistake!

 Even if I take a home test, lab tests are a lot more advanced and the detection limits are not the same.  Even if I come up negative in the end, I know I should probably just be honest. It was an innocent mistake, I wish I was better at throwing up!  Are used to be prescribed Xanax, so it's not conceivable that I would take one by accident… But I have done this before and he has given me a pass. I feel like I'd be pushing my luck  at building to another stupid mistake. I leave on  A very important family vacation in a month. To have my doctor drop me right before vacation (that cost me a small fortune... tickets this year, holy crap!) would be rather devastating.  This is what happens when you're nervous, rushing  and not being mindful due to being stressed out and filled with panic. You make mistakes, really really stupid mistakes.  Face the consequences… I'm going to have to one way or the other most likely.  Maybe four days is enough time, maybe not.  Putting my  treatment and a life situation  on the line over this isn't very appealing. Damn.  All of this stress is created by getting the medications to treat my anxiety… All it's doing is creating more anxiety. Maybe someone is trying to tell me something here. 

 
Xanax is 48-72 hours max in urine.
 Yes, I was honest about taking that one little pill and I still came up negative… It ended up being a win-win with my doctor.  It definitely and proved our level of trust, he and I are still pretty new to each other.  Believe me, I will be much more careful in the future, LOL.  I was stressed for nothing.  But my doctor is very cool in terms of messing up once in awhile,  but he has zero tolerance policy on dishonesty. So for me it wasn't worth taking the risk, everyone's metabolism is different.  And honestly, it would have eaten at me and driven me crazy if I hadn't told him. I would have just worried myself to death.  So all is well that ends well!  

I admit that I am super super excited to be leaving for an extended vacation! I will try to check it on here while I'm away, but I will be gone until August. 

Be well everyone!!!

My other half gets drug tested and they want his script for his benzo (Klonopin) to be six months or less, his is over the 6 month line -he got it filled by a doctor about 8 months ago, so every time he has to get drug tested and can't get to the doctor or get a script  (he almost always has advance notice) he has to not take the klonopin and it sucks, it helps him sleep/pain at night. Any tips on how long Klonopin stays in? I Know it has a longer half life, Thanks @US Army Veteran and any other advice!

Klonopin has a super long half life up to 50 hours in some cases. Which means it may be traced in urine for 5-7 days if I had to take a good guess. But that's strictly a guess.

 
I was thinking that, I've gotten him trying some Kratom, he has bad shoulder pain etc, even with pain meds and a glass of wine he doesn't sleep. We move a lot for his job and doctors hate writing scripts for Benzo's (which I don't remember the last time I asked a doctor for anything but an antibiotic but he needs it for work) Thanks @US Army Veteran!

Peace ~ Jax

Your welcome my friend. I hope  it helps!

 
I'm SO busy, work about 90 hours a week now and have a ton going on. I stay away from other Benzos like Xanax because I get too addicted to that fast onset (yeah it feels good...but I'm obviously high adterwards). Clonezepam helps my anxiety levels without making me feel too doped up. Looking to get a Benzo high? This probably isn't the best option. Xan bars kicked my but... but being an addict nothing was ever enough. 5 years ago when I was popping them like candy I was a zombie. I just don't have the self control to take anything else and function. As time passes, I've found I'm happier and healthier mentally taking long acting drugs for anxiety. I've taken a Xanax here and there. But for the most part I avoid them now.

 
my situation is different, I been on the med for a long time, terminated from work, may not afford to keep valid script so taking urine test and buying drinks for pre-employement may be a burden on wallet.... and who knows how many I am going to have to take with no good to the fed shut down and me terminated from work not gov related but applying for assistance and unemployment with the fed gov... while trying to budget $$$ that's a  NIGHTMARE

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  4. 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.
  5. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  6. aBBazaBBa123 @ aBBazaBBa123: @rockychoc How do I contact you?
  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
