    Ok, so today is my day off and I want to spend it in a great mood with some relaxing drugs, watching a great movie or listening to some music.

    I have a serious quantity of the following chemicals at my disposal:

    Carisoprodol (Soma) 350mg Tablets
    Cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril) 10mg Tablets
    Lorazepam (Ativan) 0.5mg Tablets
    Hydrocodone/APAP (Lortab) 10mg/500mg Tablets

    You can scratch out the Lortabs because I am really burnt out on the tabs, to be quite honest. I also have to take a pretty moderate dosage to even feel good, so that makes them even more a pain in the ass to be mixing with Benzo's. I don't feel like taking any of those today, or any opiate for that matter, as I prefer to save them for when I really do need them. Plus, I would like to feel a different kind of a high for the first time in a long time. So, that leaves me with Soma, Flexeril, and Ativan.

    I haven't been prescribed Soma's for long, only a few weeks tops. The first time I tried them, I took one and it didn't do anything really, so I shelved them and figured they may come in handy on a rainy day (like this).

    I am quite experienced with Ativan, as I have been taking it every day for a while now. I'm thinking I'll just use it as a mixer with either the Flexeril or the Soma. I am also quite experienced with Flexeril. I have been using it for years, but I have never taken it with my Ativan for actual recreational purposes. I've only taken them together as directed by my doctor, which have produced no significant effects on me besides severe drowsiness.

    So, what combo would you recommend?

    Flexeril & Ativan, Soma & Ativan, or Soma, Flexeril, & Ativan?

    Once again, I am not familiar at all with mixing these guys on a recreational level, so if anyone out there has more experience with these combos, knows which combo would be the best, or has any important information that I should know before mixing these, please let me know ASAP.

    Oh, and if you feel the need to play mommy and tell me that what I'm doing is dangerous, then please don't bother posting here. Especially if you have no clue what the fuck you're talking about. I'm a grown man. I don't need you to worry about me.

    Now if you have some PROVABLE FACTS about serious health consequences from mixing these drugs, like seizures, heart failure, anything like that... then you are more than welcome to hand me that information.

    Thank you all for your time... :)

    If I were you, I'd take a couple of Ativan with a couple of Soma. I hate Flexeril, it has that anticholinergic feel, not very recreational IMO. I enjoyed taking 2 Soma's awhile ago but that was mixed with fentanyl (not recommended)...so I'm not sure how adding Ativan will make it. I'm pretty sure it would be safe though, I've seen others mix the same 2 drugs plus a few others at the same time.

    Well, I know that Soma & Ativan together isn't really too dangerous. I'm just not familiar with Soma and don't really know what dosage of it to take. 1.5mg-2mg of Ativan is usually good for me, but with Soma, I have no clue. 1 350mg Soma did nothing to me. How many would you suggest taking with the Ativan for a good nodding-type high?

    Flexeril isn't really recreational IMO. Soma + Ativan is my vote.

    Most people take 700-1050mg of Soma recreationally..and that's on the low side..personally I have some friends who have taken 5 at a time with alcohol...so they're pretty safe. Some people seem to get a nice buzz from that and others never notice too much. Depends on the user I guess.

    Never was a soma fan, but if I had to pick I would say Soma/Ativan as well.

    I wouldn't recommend taking 5 or more, ever. They lower your seizure threshold, and are VERY easy to hurt or kill yourself with.

    yeah, I was leaning towards the Soma/Ativan combo myself, as the Flexeril normally just makes me sleep for days on end. I wouldn't say it's very recreational either, but in a 30-40mg dose, it can make you feel pretty goddamned good if you can win the harsh battle with drowsiness.

    So, I've decided to take 2mg of Ativan with 700mg of Soma and see how that works out. I'll keep you guys posted. Thanks so much for the honest feedback. I absolutely love this forum 99.5% of the time :)

    Yeah, I personally wouldn't take more than 3 at a time.


    Let us know how those 2 go, for future reference. :cheers2:

    Listen to u4ia. you might as well throw the flexeril away, that shit is garbage. I tried it once and it had me cracked out twitching.

    the somas are good though, you say you got the 350mg tablets, which is the ones I used to have, and they're quite enjoyable. Pop 3 somas, and maybe a little bit of ativan and you should be feelin niiiiccceee.

    yeah, these forums are the shit. you decided to pop 2 somas, I guess its fine to start small. But even the first time I popped soma, I only felt it at 3 (1050mg). you could also pop a LITTLE bit more ativan if you want. like 1mg more. maybe two, but space it out.

    Well, I noticed that 2mg of Ativan is the perfect recreational dosage for me. Any more than that and I feel really fucking weird and I can't remember what I was doing 5 minutes beforehand.

    But maybe I'll take 3mg of Ativan this time and 875mg of Soma, just to see what happens. I'll let you guys know how it goes. Thanks a fucking ton.

    So... the Soma 700mg/Ativan 2mg combo is quite nice. I dosed about an hour and a half ago and needless to say, I feel wonderful right about now, watching American Psycho. I fucking love where Jared Leto gets killed to Huey Lewis & The News. Fucking classic....

    But anyway, I'll probably take another 350mg Soma and another 1mg of Ativan in the next hour just to boost it a little. But thanks for all the info. You guys are the shit. :)

    Just be careful, but glad you are having fun! Don't go over 3 somas, or 3 ativans, please...

    I myself have 270mg of Oxycodone right in front of me waiting to be in my nose.

    :D

    Ok.... so i was sitting on the couch for like the longest, then I just woke up in my bed. No clue how I got there or if I even slept for the 5hrs that I was not in my mind. I woke up in my bed and my roommates were home, getting ready to cook dinner that I was supposed to help with.

    So, that combo definitely did the trick,a side from the weird blackout occurence. I never even boosted it at all and it had me apparently a little too fucked up to even attempt to do so. Last thing I remember was nodding on the couch, then I wake up in my bed upstairs 5 hrs later.

    Anyway, I got up, stumbled around a little and proceeded to take another 1mg of Ativan. Came downstairs, cleaned the stove, smoked a little greenage, and helped cook some bad-ass Shrimp Scampi alfredo with broccoli and cheesebread. It was fan-fucking-tastic!

    :willy_nilly:

    Now, I believe I will smoke some more kush, then go drop another soma and another 1mg of Ativan as a nightcap. Thanks to all you guys for your help in making my day very pleasant, but also very weird. :)

    Work tomorrow. Sucks balls.:puke:

    Flexeril can be extremely deadly in higher doses, which is one main reason it's not a good recreational drug. You don't feel much from lower doses, but if you take too high of a dose, it becomes dangerous. It's not something to fuck with.

    Also, take it easy on the Soma as well. Like I said, it's a weird drug in the sense that it actually LOWERS your seizure threshold. This has been known to cause seizures in people that have taken a dose as low as 1750mg. I would keep the Soma dose at 1050mg, anything more then that, ESPECIALLY if mixing with a benzo, is just asking for trouble.

    Be safe!
