      Im so glad i never got my way into having a chronic or even continued benzo script. I gurantee I would be absolutely fucked instead of just presently just almost completely 🤪 Degrees of magnitude make a differance

    Which-ever one you didn’t take before making this post is better. Also “hello” if this is hitting your inbox tomorrow and you forgot making this post.

    For legit trouble sleeping:

    Ambien, but only in the short term.
    Long term: Unless you have serious insomnia, in which case, ask a doctor not Lemmy, it’s better to fix up your sleep hygiene.

    For recreation:

    Ideally, neither.

    1. With Ambien you’re probably just going to black out and send a few embarrassing if not incomprehensible text messages.
    2. Benzos are addictive and tolerance builds fast. If you start taking it too much too frequently, you’ll start getting withdrawals. You won’t realize until long after you’ve crossed the threshold.

    But if you’re going to anyway… benzos. Keep doses light and infrequent

    I’d strongly urge weed or exotic tea or a hobby instead

      At least with sleeping pills, you just straight up know its fucked up when you just randomly “do” them. Its never so obvious with the anxiolytics, there’s always a way to justify your bullshit use of them “just cuz”. Its like having an instant get drunk pill in your pocket, but its Drs orderz! so its kool and its expected you use them randomly throughout your day(s)
