It makes you feel like your muscles are melting off of your body into relaxation bliss. You feel light. You have only a dim awareness of what is going on but it is awesome because any problems in your life are completely out of your mind. You could sleep easily and heavily if you wanted to. You are completely relaxed and moderately dulled, mentally physically and emotionally. You are somewhat disassociated, but not to the same extent or in the same way as you would be from, say, ketamine. You may have black outs and amnesia especially on higher doses, and you are also prone to acting like an asshole because your ability to filter your behavior and empathize with others is significantly hindered. Xanax makes you not care about things. It is pretty much the exact opposite of LSD. LSD enhances senses, abstract thinking, emotions, xanax dulls them. LSD stimulates the body, xanax relaxes it. It is really perfect for the come down of LSD or MDMA or anything like that, it really helps a ton especially if you want to sleep but otherwise would have trouble doing so. It also pretty much terminates all but the visual aspects of many psychedelics, LSD + xanax = LSD visuals - LSD mental effects. You need to get used to the effects and build a bit of a tolerance to it to truly appreciate its recreational value imo, if you take 2mg for your first time and without any tolerance you are likely to black out and not remember shit, and to not be able to appreciate the subtle effects it has. It is also very nice to mix with marijuana, especially if you are prone to paranoia or panic attacks. If you take Xanax prior to smoking weed, you will be able to smoke a fuck ton without any worries about becoming paranoid or having a panic attack. Don't get hooked though, the withdrawals can kill you and it is hell to get off of it without tapering.
