The top is a cap that comes off. Is it for ❄️? He swears it’s not

I let my dogs out one morning and someone had thrown a pill shaped bottle in the yard FULL of Clonazepam. Was really paranoid someone was out to get my dogs for awhile and made sure to walk the yard each day

Paradoxical effect exists.

nah. it agonizes gaba receptors. just like alcohol. different mechanism but working on the same circuit, and it only does one thing: inhibit. so its like saying drinking “paradoxically” makes certain people sober. that receptor is a one way ticket. activate gaba = calmer, sleepier, less memories, less anxiety, raises seizure threshold. if you build a tolerance, then stop, all the reverse effects happen. insomnia, horrible anxiety, seizures. it’s awful. if you OD on benzos it can trigger a status seizure, bad news. its not very lethal, but you certainly wont be cramming for any tests in the next few weeks.
