I have had anxiety issues for decades. I am on 10 mg of Paxil and take Lorazepam .25 mg when a little extra help is needed. I stay away from stimulants and I haven't had any caffeine or stimulants as they cause jitters and cause anxiety.

I have tried a few legal alternatives to relax in attempts to not need the Lorazepam.

I am trying the white and red vein variety's. At the moment, I am enjoying my hours on the Red Vein. I have taken 4 teaspoons of the powder. 2 the first hour, and 2 the second hour. I've taken it on an empty stomach. I don't mind the taste, I empty the powder on my tongue, take a little water, mix it up in my mouth and swallow.

Although I am currently in the middle of this current experience, it is not my first, as I dosed up about a week ago as well. I feel stimulated and relaxed at the same time. For me, that is a unique feeling. I'm used to one or the other, but I feel motivated to do things, not sleepy, mind feels sharp, and yet, I have a very nice warm feeling through out my body and a sense of calm. It has actually been quite euphoric.

I did have a little stomach cramping from my last experience for a couple days after.

As long as I stayed on top of keeping my bowels empty, it was fine. The come down has not caused me anxiety.

People in the past have suggested I take weed to relax me, and although it works, the come down causes me anxiety and kills the whole point. My plan is the have this as a 2 to 3 times a month experience.
