Hey guys, new to the site, hope im not in the wrong place. I have a quick question about my personal tolerance and would like any sugguestions from you. Im 20 years old and weigh 130lbs. For the last year to two years ive been on and off with opiates. Mostly on. I used to be able to take 2 7.5mg lortabs and feel awesome. Now i snort 2 40mg opana's and barely feel a thing. My friends dont beleive me when i say " i dont feel a thing" when they can snort a tiny chip of a 40mg opana and be GONE. Hopefully this will help you guys determine what i should do and let you know exactly where my tolerance is. Lortab used to be my drug of choice before i was taking 30 of them at a time just to feel a good buzz. But now, not a thing, not even a twisted stomach. Right now, my drug of choice is methadone. I usually take 100-120mg of liquid methadone but thats when it was available (about once a week now). Its like the only thing i can do now, (if i want to get high) is go find herion, but i dont want to start that crap. Thats just asking for rock bottom. All i want to be able to do is snort a tiny chip of opana and feel like im on cloud 9. Any suggestions? Other than wait 2 years? Thanks guys.
 
PLease be careful on methadone. if you have no tolarance to it and you to take 100mg's once a week your just asking for it! There is more people here who can explain it better than me,but if you want to get "high" there are plenty of other drugs out there besides methadone you can use that are not as dangerous!! for most people methadone does not get you high or cause euphoria anyways..

I know what you mean. High doses give me a short decent buzz but nothing like what lortabs and opana used to do. Ive done alot of the opiates out there, just seems like theres nothing else out there that can meet my tolerance unless i want to start herion or spend more than <snip> on opana which i dont plan on doing. Just want to find a way to get my tolerance back down to a decent level.

Stop completely for a week. your tolerance will diminish to 0. That's if you can get through the withdrawals cold turkey. If you can do that, then by the end of the week you can get high from couple bumps off an opana.
 
Your tolerance will go down very fast believe it or not. That's how people overdose when they are detoxing then relaspe 3 days later. Their body is not use to that amount of drug anymore and cause an overdose. Seen it happen hundreds of timees. So just be careful.
 
Alright brotha a week it is. Buying me an opana tomorrow and keeping it in my safe until a week is up. ; ) will also drink a ton of water and sweat as much as possible
 
Haha be there and done that many times over. I miss the old days where 1 10mg percocet or 15 roxy took you to another world.
 
Haha yea, when tabs were actually worth something. Now if I wanted to get high off a tab i'd have to eat at least 30 of them. Which at that point is worthless and dumb with all that apap in it. Deff would have to do a CWE.
 
Thats what i was doin about 3 monts ago haha
Takin 25-35 10mg tabs already knowing it wasnt gonna do anything. It was always free so why not? Everyonce in awhile my dude will call me and say "tabs on deck" i just laugh. Lol
 
Aight broski have a good night. Any other questions on opiates or other drugs in general hit me up. Been doing them my whole life, no a lot about them haha.
 
Problem is, after the week is up and he starts using again his tolerance will come back quite quickly. Opiate tolerance doesn't have an answer besides time. In the meantime, maybe try looking into some potentiation.. there are numerous threads here covering such topics.
 
Well if you have the willpower to stop 5 days like the other posters have said and then start back you will def.tell a difference. The hard part will probably be the week you go without!! for me it always was. but once you start back your tolorance will be right back up there....it really is a vicious cycle...
 
If you can go a week cold then you should have the will to limit your use to once or twice a week. If you do that your tolerance should remain pretty low and build fairly slowly. I am like you in that my tolerance goes up fast, and eventually I can't catch a buzz without taking stupidly dangerous doses. Unfortunately, the only solution is time and/or limiting your use.
 
personally, i found that once i got into high-dose usage of opiates i was sorta screwed. if i take a break, as everyone has suggested, my tolerance is much lower once i begin using again. However after a couple days my tolerance is back to pre-cessation levels. im not sure if maybe a longer break would have slowed the tolerance response, i began using bupe which i'm fairly sure has given me a long-lasting tolerance, but it seems logical that the longer you wait the more time your body has to get back to the nirvana which is opiate-niavety. good luck on going a week cold turkey with that sorta habit man, thats hell.
 
IME tolerance takes a long time to drop upon cessation of opiates, but when it does start to drop, it then drops quite fast, though no matter how long you abstain from using your DOC, your tolerance will NEVER go back to how it originally was before you started using opiates. On the flip-side, if you manage to quit and then start using again, tolerance tends to shoot right back up to where it was before you quit pretty quickly. Your brain never forgets.
