diazepam reverses the effects of amphetamine

Posted by rjlockhart37 on December 18, 2019, at 16:10:56

finally i've figured it out, after a while of feeling calm but apathetic, diazepam reduces dopamine levels, but .. people take for anxiety and it works well, i mean past generations tons of it, but reduces or elminates the effects of stimulant, or amphetmaine, i've gotten on websites looking on why diazepam causes this apatheic feeling, it has to be at higher doses to have a pleasant, or just very caln feeling. Alrazolam - it has antidepressant effectsm and it increases dopamine and hits D2 receptors in the brain, this is why xanax is so widley enjoyed and abused. Lorazepem ... all rerenber was it relaxed, it took off this heavy feeling tension, and it was like a relief. Clonazepam is very potent, and it makes me depressed as hell. After reseaerching last night i found this article
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28038309

its calming but it reduces dopamine levels, diazepam does not have anti-dressant eeffects like lorazepam or alprazolam. It reduces tension and anxiety combined and provides a calming effect. Hency the benzo 'diazep' ine (diazepam) its the general benzo there is. Then they started modifying benzos to have different effects. But if you take to reduce anxiety on like adderall or dexedrine, it will reverse it's effect, lorazepam and alprazolam seemed to work ok with reducing anxiety with dexedrine, but diazepam reverses the effects. So if your thinking it will take the edge off, it reduces or reverses d-amphetamine effect.

i don't like diazepam, it makes apathetic calm. But right now it's the only thing i can take for anxiety, yes it does lower anxiety, definitely, has muscle relaxant effects, but certain doses it causes apathy. The general max dose is 40mg, and im sure at higher doses it has pleasant or better effects, but i take usually 5-10mg, daily. There's relief, but at 10mg, say i didn't take it during the day, and took it for sleep, ill just be apathetic calm and sleepy.

anyways just wanted to share that info....

it's dose dependant and tolerance, when tolerance develops higher doses required, but can be pleasant. If you take like 2mg of diazepam with d-amp, it will reduce anxiety, but higher doses reverse and almost eliminate the effect of it.

i've noticed now, 15-20mg is better for mood, 7.5-10mg for me makes me apathic, a dull boring calm. Diazepam is the only thing i can take right now for anixety, i've been on 3 other benzos, alrazolam, lorazepam, and clonazepam, they say that diazeapm is stronger than these others, i have to say, no it is not, you have to take 20mg of diazepam to achieve similar effect of 2mg or lorazepam or alprazolam. Clonazepam is good for calming panic, and is very good for sleep, but it makes me depressed, it's so potent. Alrazolam made me want to sleep, it had a anti-depressant effect, lorazepam just madde everything feel like lifted stress off, i felt like weight had been taken off me from stress and worry. Diazepam, it has a calming effect, but it can apathic and sometimes dull, 20mg somtimes is the most effective dose. It has muscle relaxant effects, i take it and i feel eased up psyhically, like my muscles are eased up. But preference wise, don't like diazepam, it's calming but feels dull and makes you boring feeling, 20mg is the only effective dose i've found that had major relief, and eased up mood, not apathetic. And the recommeneded high dose, is 40mg, so that would be 10mg tablet 4 times ddaily. It's not strong as the other benzos, its just a general calm. That's all i have to say

like when i take 2.5mg which half tablet, i do feel relief, it's dose depedent, and im very sure it works diffrently on other people, and also diazpeam was once the most prescribed benzo in the 1970s in households, just like an asprin for a headacche, alot of households had diazepam for their nerves. Then other benzos came out, ativan, xanax, but valium was once the most prescribed anxiety med for tension and nervousness, the in 1970s.
