SWIM did codeine for the first time, 100 mg (for 210 lbs body mass, opiate virgin). SWIM didn't get very euphoric, but did get very sleepy and very relaxed, and so he slept through his trip. When SWIM woke up, he realized it was the best 2 hours of sleep he had in years. Now, SWIM has persistent issue with fatigue every day, and feels pretty meh even after 9 hours of sleep and like crap in the afternoon/evening, often having to rely on stimulants to go through the day. SWIM thinks maybe he has some kind of health problem and codeine helped? Could it be Restless leg syndrome, as google claims that codeine helps for that? SWIM never noticed any f.... urge to move legs while lying down or anything, but is often awoken by sudden jerks of movement of his limbs (he assumed it's normal). What should SWIM do now? SWIM will use the rest of this stuff tonight, SWIM wants all night of this amazing, restful sleep!


Sorry for using SWIM, I wasn't aware it's not a thing here.

Well opiates tend to make ppl tired and relaxed, this is refered to as the 'nod'.. As far as what health problems you have, we'd have no idea.. go see a doctor. However You'd know if it was rls! You may be shifting in your sleep do to your body reacting to the dreams that are occuring.
 
You may not be aware that you have sleep apnea or some such condition. If you're getting 9hrs sleep but feeling fatigued through out the day you, as you suggested, may have issues remaining asleep without knowing it or being restless. Your diet may need adjusting or you may have a hormonal condition like an inactive or under active thyroid to low Testosterone......all these conditions will cause one to feel chronically fatigued.

Maybe you need to undergo a sleep study to see what happens during your sleep cycle.
 
^The best part is when you're too high, and too noddy to sleep or even better.....when you're in full opioid mode and cannot sleep without it or start waking earlier and earlier to cater to your addiction....waking up in cold sweats kicking like a mf......who wouldn't want this life!!?
