I have maxed out on everything else with zero effects. The other that works is stimulants. This is the bizarre part - with having such a ridiculous tolerance for everything else, it's the opposite with Stims. I have to take the tiniest dose, and even then sometimes cut those in half. When I do, on a dose that a 5 year old should be taking, I lose all my apetite, become anti-social, and anxiety goes way up.

Hi,What do you mean by a horse dose? I have to take a horse dose myself of benzos to get rid of my anxiety - anywhere from 4-8 mg of Klonopin a day, sometimes even a bit more. What benzo do you take and how much?
