Concerning.: Don't know how much you drink. My concern is that it can't be healthy or you wouldn't drink alcohol if you also take both Clonazepam & codeine. This really isn't safe. I love the term "pill version of alcohol". It is very descriptive but not literal.

WORKS?: Sounds like you have serious trouble with anxietyand/or depression, and you're looking for things outside you to change your feelings. That's a sign that you need therapy to help you deal with the causes. Maybe even detox first? Definitely find a therapist to help.
