WHY WE DO IT
Opiates and benzos (including Oxy, Valium or Diazepam), are sometimes used recreationally by gay men to manage comedowns resulting from other drugs (like crystal or cocaine) or to help guys relax or to fall asleep.
THE FEELINGS
Calm, dizzy, sleepy and fall asleep.

THINK ABOUT
Opiates like Oxy can be as addictive as heroin (another type of opiate) and you can build up tolerance quite quickly. Stopping opiates after having taken them for a long time is best done under medical supervision because they are physically addictive and quitting ‘cold turkey’ can be dangerous.
MIXING SLEEPING PILLS WITH OTHER DRUGS
Combining opiates with alcohol can be dangerous as both substances slow down the respiratory system. Taking alcohol with sleeping pills or benzos can be lethal — remember all those lost celebrities — so avoid mixing booze and pills when possible.
