About a month ago, I tried flubrotizolam for the first time while waiting for a delayed flight at a busy airport. Over the course of the night, I consumed ~1.5 mgs of flubrotizolam from a dropper bottle. This was not the most precise trial; however, it was entertaining, and I got a good sense of this substance's effects. I later experimented with this substance with more precision.

The first portion of this post is my real-time experience report. The second portion is an overview of flubrotizolam's effects, duration, and half-life, as well as further comparisons to other novel benzodiazepines.

1. Trip Report - Written in Real-Time.

I have been stuck in a large airport for about 12 hours. There is no sign my flight will ever leave - first we had no pilot, then storms hit, and now it's an apocalyptic hellscape outside and we still have no pilot. Luckily they let us off the plane, so I've been wandering aimlessly for an hour or so. The line to speak to an agent is 200 people long so I won't even bother.

Naturally, I got bored, so I decided to pass the time researching flubrotizolam. I had a dropper bottle: 5mls, 5 mg per ml. I'm under the impression that 1 ml = 21.8 drops, roughly. So, if 1 ml = 1 mg, then 4 to 5 drops is ~1 mg.

T - 0. By my estimates, I think I dosed ~1 mg sublingual. I was in the bathroom because dropping liquid into my mouth from a bottle labeled "NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION" in public was too much for me at that time. The guy next to me was experiencing severe gastrointestinal distress the whole time

I am now loose in the airport once more. This was clearly a terrible idea, but I'm experienced enough with benzos that I don't really care.

T - 0:30 I'm becoming increasingly barred out. I went to the food court, looked at every option multiple times, and ultimately decided not to buy food. I got a soda, but I immediately dropped it in the middle of the terminal. It exploded. I just stared at it like a scared deer and walked away. I am now going to stay at my gate.

T - 1:00. The effects have leveled out. Moderate sedative-hypnotic effects are evident. Motor control, while not completely compromised, is lacking. I have little short term memory to speak of. I am capable of only the most basic tasks.

I managed to get food, but it took me an absurdly long time to order - I felt like I was speaking at 0.75x speed. I asked the cashier if she put a fork in the bag twice, and she said yes both times. There was no fork in the bag. I spent several minutes looking for it because I was convinced it was somehow in the bag, despite the fact that the fork was clearly not in the bag. I eventually retrieved a new fork and ate to my heart's content.

T - 1:30. A pilot has finally arrived to fly the damn plane, but I had a bit of trouble figuring out which gate was mine for a moment. Also, the disinhibition kicked in hard. I had absolutely no reservations about knocking back 2 more flubrotizolam drops (~0.4-0.5 mgs) in a full flight waiting area. We're doing great here. I an experiencing some mild euphoria on top of the general inebriation. I plan to pass out immediately upon boarding.

T - 2:00. We are boarding! I caught myself standing in line with my mouth just hanging open and staring blankly into space. Notable time constriction. This feels like a cross between etizolam and bromazolam. I'm content in my thoughtless state.

T - 2:30. I'm about to take off. The effects have definitely leveled out, and the first dose may be wearing off - it feels shorter acting than I expected, but that might be the delusions of sobriety talking [IT WAS].

T - 4:00. I have arrived at my destination intact. On a scale from sober (0) to obliterated (10), I'm at like a 4 or 5. I'm still under the influence, yet I am having delusions of sobriety.

Subjective effects are that I am generally relaxed, disinhibited, uncoordinated, and sedated, but only at a mild-moderate level. If I didn't think about it too hard, I would've thought I was just tired. That said, I've bumped into like 3 people since getting off the plane, so I think that's the FANAX talking. I'm still definitely a bit wonky.

The wait and flight flew by (hah), and being intoxicated in the airport is reliably fun, though challenging at times. This was a good experience overall. However, I'm not sure I'd recommend it for the inexperienced.

I found that the effects completely subsided around 6 hours after ingestion.

2. Retrospective.

Following this experience, I used flubrotizolam around 5 or 6 more times at a variety of doses. Since there is still a dearth of information about this substance online, I have written a brief overview of flubrotizolam, including dosage guidelines, effects profile, and comparisons to other novel benzodiazepines.

Potency and Dosage

In my experience, 0.25 mgs of flubrotizolam ≈ 0.5 mgs of Clonazepam/Xanax ≈ 10 mg Diazepam. I can't find much information about flubrotizolam's half-life; however, given that its 6-8 hour duration is similar to clonazepam's duration, but maybe a bit shorter, I'd wager that it has a 30-35 hour half-life. That's just an estimate, though.

Effects and Experiences

I consider it to be a worthwhile benzo in its own right. I have used flubrotizolam around 6 times, with doses ranging from 0.25 mgs to 1.5 mg. Different doses produce the same effects, just with greater intensity.

I found these experiences refreshing in that I didn't black out. Sure, I had some light confusion and short term memory loss, but not nearly as much as on alprazolam or bromazolam. Delusions of sobriety manifest often, but I managed to not take it too far.

Flubrotizolam is a potent enough anxiolytic that I soon couldn't care less that my flight was delayed. Of course, it also causes motor control loss, disinhibition, and general inebriation proportionally to dosage. I bumped into objects, people, and tripped with unusual frequency. I spilled several glasses of water in a single night.

Flubrotizolam leans towards sedation and muscle relaxation, but not overwhelmingly so. I was able, and sometimes even inclined, to get up and walk around. That said, I very much preferred to sit down and enter coral mode. I was content to stare blankly with my mouth hanging open and watch TV until I passed out. To my surprise, I found flubrotizolam just as euphoric as nitrazolam, though still less so than etizolam. It induces a profound sense of relaxation and contentment.

Overall, I am quite happy to have stumbled across flubrotizolam. It strikes a line between bromazolam and etizolam, embodying my favorite aspects of each. Though it may not be my absolute favorite, it is a worthwhile addition to my rotation.
