1. Whats your age and your geographical location?
36, Eastern U.S.
2. What is your experience with opiates, which ones do you use?
Used my first opioid at 16 - Tylenol® #3. Quickly escalated to Endocet®/Percocet® (oxycodone products). By 20 I had encountered propoxyphene napsylate in Darvocet® (alas, propoxyphene HCl was out of reach), Vicodin® (hydrocodone product), and some other semi-exotic opioids. I had an 18 month love affair with nalbuphine (Nubain®), as in the U.S. it is not a controlled substance, and I got endless scripts from my physician father who was none the wiser as they never reported back scripts for non-controlled drugs. All the nalbuphine was IV, and I was doing a 200mg bottle every 24-36 hours. Still had a job, a college life, and was always negative for drug tests. By my late 20's, I had stopped opioids entirely as I had no trusted source for them, and I only use pharmaceutically pure material, call me a snob, but if the drug COULD have been transported in someone's rectum, I was a non-participant. Never tried diacetylmorphine (Heroin-Bayer) except for a quick shot in A&E during a trip to the UK (where Heroin has an accepted medical use). It never seemed to be much more than a pep to me when I got it, even though it was given IV and I was opioid-naive. Then there was Dilaudid®! Drug of choice universally as I have pain relief for my day, energy on top of that, and no ill effects like hyperalgesia or escalating doses, short of a raging addiction.
Propoxyphene remains one of my favourites, despite it's low analgesic activity...
3. How often do you use opiates?
I have resigned myself to using no more frequently than every other day as the rush just doesn't compare when administered more frequently. When I am having pain, that changes things to a PRN dosing of Dilaudid® IV.
4. Why do you use opiates?
Uh, firstly the euphoric rush. Next the ongoing euphoria mixed with anxiolysis, analgesia, etc. Third, as a come-down aid from IV amphetamine.
5. What kind of drug scene are you in?
I am my own scene. I have a single best friend who has never used anything stronger than Excedrin (and he gets a caffeine buzz of it, lucky bastard). No one in my family uses, no one at work, nobody I know even a little "does" drugs, either for pain relief or any other reason.
6. Also, what kind of administration do you use?
RoA limited to what I have on hand, but usually IV Dilaudid®.
