Today, I dropped my Xanax. It wasn't until after I washed it down with some water that I realized it was still on the floor and I had actually swallowed a pebble of cat litter. FML

Eww, that's gross :| How could you not have seen it though? It has Xanax written on it.

But you didn't realize it when you placed in in your mouth?

Maybe the OP didn't have their glasses put on yet? Either way yuck but it could be worse!

I didn't understand a shit. Wtf is xanax?

It's an anti anxity medicine that's just as bad for you as the disorder itself. When I was getting medicine for my anxiety, I made sure they didn't give me Xanax. Lexapro is the way to go.

I have to disagree. For me Lexapro didn't work, however, it did seriously up my desire to kill myself. I didn't even realize how badly messed up I was, and how much of a danger to myself I had become, until I was taken off of it and put on something else. I know that all medications have their risks so I'm not insulting Lexapro. I am just saying different things work for different people.

It sounds like you picked it up and swallowed it without really LOOKING at it.

If you have a cat, and therefore probably many pieces of litter randomly lying about the floor, why would you pick up anything and immediately put it in your mouth? Unless you have some bizarre generic, Xanax looks absolutely nothing like litter, with the exception that it's white. YDI for not paying attention.

some are blue, some are peach colored, some are white; you people need to do some research and stop making assumptions. I hate people who know nothing about drugs yet act like they do. -___-

I call BS on this one, because the proper way to take a xanax is to put it under your tongue and let it dissolve. You don't swallow it like an aspirin. Also, you don't take a whole xanax. You take a piece of it. ... And that piece is still significantly larger than a piece of cat litter.

I hope you found the pill or you're going to have a comatose cat...

OP, seriously how freaking small is a Xanax? Because the litter I've seen is tiny. And I've never ever seen a pill that size or shape.

Different brands of litter have different size pebbles. The more generic it is the larger the rocks, at least that's been my experience.

no brand of litter looks like a tablet plain and simple. some litter brands may be have extra large granules but they are either round or chunky like a rock. medication is flat or semi rounded on the top and bottom... no pill esp Xanax is completely round or looks like a rock.

See in my experience, cat litter looks more the shape of Nerds candy. Bahaha.

When i took xanax, it was a tiny little pill

Xanax = blue pill cat litter can have blue pebbles but still, fail for eating it
