The KEY is that the zanax is doing the same to you but as time goes on, you will need more and more zanax to achieve the same effect you are getting now.
I stopped breathing two years ago in the middle of a major surgery because I was on prescription Methodone and to put me under it took a little more and a little more and a little more Anesthetic until I literally stopped breathing and was put on the vent.
You should be very cautious with the zanax as we don't want you to fall asleep and not wake up.
