Re: Is there a limit to the tolerance effect?

I believe I have reached that point, and have been there for quite some time. I've been on them for around 15 years and at this point, I can't recall the last time I took any amount, large or small and felt anything other than 'normalized' (sometimes during a panic attack 8 or 10mg of xanax is not out of the ordinary). I don't get that loose, relaxed feeling that I once got when I was first put on benzos. On the rare occasion xanax will surprise me and I will actually feel it's effect on me, but 99% of the time I don't. I have no reason to take larger than necessary doses because I fully believe that I could take 10x my normal dose and still not yawn. Long-term benzo tolerance sucks.
