I've had a friend (many years ago) who abused Xanax to such an extreme, that he was admitted to rehab. By memory, I believe he was taking 30mg+ a day.

As with Oxycontin, Xanax/Alprazolam Is government regulated In my locality which means all practitioners need to forward a request prior to prescribing the drug. A "script owing" Is no longer an option.

Where I live nobody really does it, but if you travel out of my immediate area it's fairly popular with high school students who aren't afraid of drugs. I have no clue how you'd go about procuring it here, but I'm sure if I was tempted to try it I could get it. Canada/My province must treat Xanax differently than most considering the type of people who use it. Generally they wouldn't know dealers for anything more than Weed so it must be fairly easy to nab.

To be honest, not that I'd take It but If I were given a choice of drug, It'll be weed.

I've seen the ramifications (through friends) of abusing prescribed meds, and It Isn't pleasant when they've lost their supplier and trying to stop the addiction abruptly.

Weed is very basic. The one danger in my eyes is when you start getting really into Weed, you're usually eventually bound to try things like Poppers which heavily damage your lungs, some don't but anyone I know who gets really into Weed has tried things like that. There's also the danger of becoming extremely lazy and just doing nothing with your life.

And prescribed meds are really risky business and it usually doesn't turn out well for anyone who tries them unless they have extremely strong innate willpower. Not for me, but to each their own.
