I am an asthmatic with a long term opiate addiction. But in the past 3 months, ive been noticing a strange effect with opiates thats scaring the hell out of me.
Heres how it goes:
Today I woke up and did a oxy 30. This isn't a dose that gets me high, but it keeps me from being sick. To be high I would need about 80-120 mg really, and thats not even being really fucked up, just buzzed. But even on a small dose I get this feeling in my chest thats almost like an asthma attack or a cough. I breath in, and cough. Or I get this sensation that I have to force myself to breath. My doctor (who prescribes me other things) said it was all in my head because I suffer from long term psychiatric illness, the worst being panic disorder and major depression.
I've felt this feeling dozens and dozens of times. I'm not dead yet, never turned blue (exept the two times I actually OD'd by doing stupid amounts), and I always maintained consciousness. What could this be caused by? Is it truly possible that it is completely a psychological fear of ODing? Is it my asthma?
NOTE: Also, i started noticing the effect shortly after I had an OD the last time from shooting a crazy amount.
