So I've heard the term "nodding" refers to slipping in and out of consciousness from opioids.
When I've been using opioids lately (Tramadol, Morphine), I feel the usual sedation/drowsiness but now I've been feeling like I don't breathe enough per minute? Like I only take 10 breathes in a minute (mild RD?)
But then all of a sudden I just quickly fall asleep for which is just a minute or two and then sort of jolt back awake - although very drowsy. When I 'fall asleep' everything goes black, I don't have any dreams, and very it's all brief.
Would you consider this to be 'nodding'?
