Experience:3mg Etizolam - A Comedown Drug
- Date: 2017 (Multiple experiences)
 - Gender: Female
 - Weight: 47 kg / 105 lbs
 - Age: 20
 - Misc: I am extremely sensitive to stimulants, yet I enjoy their productive properties. I use etizolam as a way to cut the unpleasant comedown effects short and ensure that I am in bed by 10pm even if I have dosed on 3-MeO-PCP or Isopropylphenidate in the last hour or two. While this drug does have recreational effects, I use it mainly as a comedown aid.
 
Report
This is a general explanation of my history of using etizolam as a comedown aide and sleep aide.
- I volumetrically dose 3mg of etizolam when I begin to feel overwhelmed by the stimulant after effects of other substances.
 
- Within 30 minutes of orally dosing, I can feel the main physical effects I will describe below. There is a floaty sense of euphoria and the sedative haze that I love dearly.
 
- If I want to come down immediately, I will sometimes smoke my etizolam. This creates an instant effect and is much more euphoric and compulsive than orally dosing etizolam.
 
- Regardless of the ROA, etizolam in the 1-3mg range will have me sedated and asleep within two hours. I think this is a valuable tool for cutting stimulant experiences short and ensuring a good night's sleep.
 
Overall, etizolam is a calming and euphoric drug that produces little amnesia when used at the correct dosages. I prefer it to aid with a difficult comedown or ensure that I am in bed on time.
