A while back, I was having problems sleeping. Doc put me on Xanax...stupid, a mild sleeping pill would have been fine, but I digress.

Even 1/2 dosages of the stuff put me out cold. It scared me so bad that I threw the rest of the prescrip away after only taking it for a few days. And I'm a big guy, I wasn't mixing with alcohol (any meds and alcohol is just dumb), and I've usually got a pretty good tolerance for meds. So, no...you're not alone.

As an aside, a coworker admitted to me that she takes Xanax on a daily basis..."Sometimes 2 or 3". I don't get into a car if she's driving.

I have some friends who can take 10 vicoden a day, taking 2 or three at a time. It’s ridiculous to me, even after I had just had abdominal surgery I could only take MAYBE 2 a day, and I had to take all kinds of anti-emetics with them.

Boggles my mind that folks get addicted to this stuff, it’s so nasty.
