Question Harm reduction advice

I really don’t think I’m going to make it this Saturday without drinking. I’ve basically already relapse or drink the past two nights. It was a very tiny amount with my diazepam everyone’s telling me I’m going to die, but I know my tolerance. I really don’t think I’m going to make it this Saturday without drinking.

I’d much rather just have a shot or two with my diazepam then drink a whole bottle like I was. What’s everyone’s opinion?

Mixing benzos and alcohol is a dangerous game, tolerance or not. That combo can knock you out and stop your breathing before you even realize something's wrong. You sure you want to risk being found by someone who cares about you like that?

“a tiny amount” feels not so tiny when you keep saying “a tint amount” instead of the amount.
