Hey, redditors, this is my first post on r/drugs but I lurk and vote quite a bit. Today I wanted to talk about Xanax. I've taken Xanax three times now, 1 milligram each time. The first time I popped 1 mg with one of my homies and we hit a bong and got super high, then I passed out. The second time, I took 1 mg at my school, didn't feel a whole lot for a while, then passed out and slept through two classes. The third occasion was two nights ago after attending a football game. I took 1 mg with some of my friends, and passed out in a Whataburger.

The consistent thing is that every time I've taken it, I've passed out. When my friends and I were first trying it, we talked about it like, "We're gonna pop these Xannies and get chilled the fuck out!" But that never seems to happen to me, I just get hit with exhaustion like a brick wall and pass out wherever I am.

Based on these experiences I just can't understand why so many people desire it for parties and events. It seems to me that all it's really good for is a sleeping aid. My question is, is this effect unique to me? Do other users get some sort of body or mind high?

It should be noted that there are other substances that have no noticeable effect (at all) on me. I've taken large amounts of opiates such as hydrocodone and felt absolutely nothing from them. I've also taken klonopin and felt no effects. Thank you for any and all responses :-)

TL;DR: I've taken Xanax a couple times and felt nothing besides passing out. Is that all it is?
