[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 688527, member: 1963"] Yes, alcohol with-benzos can increase the likelihood of both blackout and aggression. Aggression and other "bad" behavior can occur during blackouts. Alcohol and benzos can also make you DEAD when mixed, as each potentiates the other. I take prescribed benzos in prescribed dosages, and if I drink 4 times a year, that's a lot. When I drink, I have ONE drink, be it beer or hard liquor. (Wine gives me migraines.) Please be aware that alcohol and benzo withdrawal can be deadly, the most common cause of death during those withdrawals are seizures that cannot be stopped (status epilepticus). Suicide is also a risk, due to the mental/emotional side effects of withdrawal. Benzo withdrawal takes a LONG time, and in chronic users, effects may be noted for years after ceasing chronic use.
