hey, it has worked for me ;)
i recall one terrible mixed state i had, before i had been Dx'd. i managed to score some percosets and spent two days in the vacant lot next to my house smoking pot & munching pain medication, hanging out with junk cars and the bushes. i was not exactly sane or functional, but i was relieved of suicidal thoughts and actually able to back away from the freaky precipice i'd screwed myself into.
sometimes our pain is just too much to bear. it's important not to stay in crisis mode too long because you'll end up dead. so i completely support people doing whatever they have to do in those situations.
I'm not convinced, however, that say, hashish + oxy would be a good long term solution. but i guess it all depends on if this combo increases your capacity to participate with other people, to work and love. from my experience the most common case with such substances is a kind of autistic hedonism.
