As someone who has been prescribed it for a long time.... The best thing to do is DON'T get a prescription to it if you plan to use it as a recreational drug. You WILL end up buying it for 20x what it's worth from some sketchy guy.

A) Alazopram - It is just total SHIT as a recreational drug. I've taken so much it should have killed a horse and I could speak coherently, wasn't acting crazy, or whatever. If you drink with it, then that may be different. if you get 'xanax" from some sketchy guy then, just don't take them. It helps with anxiety...for maybe an hour if you don't take them often.

B) Recreation - You're an idiot if you think xanax is a fun recreational drug. I took it at a prescription for years, and even if I took too much, it wasn't fun, it wasn't energetic, you don't want to to talk to people, it's just not for that.

C) Tolerance- You will build up a tolerance faster than you can imagine. To feel like the first .5 pill you tool made you feel, it may take 8 or those to get the same thing. I notice this from a medical stand point. Start with .5mg...withing 2 month you're on 2mg 2x a day. The shit is addictive. It, and most benzos, make things so nice seeming that you always want it. When you run out... :(
