This is somewhat of a repost of a post I made yesterday, but I believe the changes I'm making will make this acceptable.
When I moved to Tampa, I had heard of and knew people who took Oxys, but not many. Then a friend went to rehab in clearwater for alcohol. She was the only person there for any reason other than shooting blues. I had no idea there was such a huge blues (has never heard the term until then) culture in the area. Seems like that's all anyone here does.
I started looking into "pain clinics" around the time the state and feds started cracking down. Seems like they were partially successful, but I still see a bunch of "pain centers" and "back pain specialists" in the area. I hear rumors that the "legal" opiate prescription industry is still going strong, but I'm curious about how they're avoiding the crackdown. Fuck a LEO. I don't want details. Just curious if that industry has really taken a hit, or if they have just adjusted tactics.
Here's the part that I think got my previous thread locked: I get randomly urine tested. I am prescribed clonazepam and vyvanse, and have no interest in opiates or anything else (well, that's not true, but I don't need another addiction to deal with, but that's not the point). I thought the kpin script would allow me to take as many benzos as I wanted, but I was wrong. Apparently the testing is pretty rigorous. I always take my kpin script faster than prescribed, so I took xanax when I ran out. My test administrator came back to me and said "have you been taking xanax?" Of course I said no. He said, "that's interesting, because your test showed traces of alprazoplam metabolites." I did some research, and this is true. Alprazolam metabolites are different from other benzo metabolites, and I'm assuming that's the case with all benzos.
Starting when I heard this news, I have (and will continue to) take nothing other than what I am prescribed. I am currently withdrawing like a MFer. Any advice, particularly from locals, on how to make it until my script is filled and how to stretch it better in the future would be appreciated.
