So, a fairly new opiate user. (<12 months) I've been messing around with Oxycodone, Morphine, Hydrocodone, and occasionally Demerol and Tramadol. Anyway, onto my point my tolerance doesn't seem to build. But I can take large doses and feel fine. Is it something with how my liver processes the meds? Also, I don't seem to experience withdraw. Maybe I haven't used enough but I've noticed I can just stop after 3 weeks of use without a problem.

I usually take anywhere from 30-80mg of Oxycodone a day. Sometimes I use the same amount of Hydrocodone. Somedays I'll take a Morphine 100 and be good all day wiith slight nausea.

Another thing I'm curious about is I can catch a nod off a Perc 10, yet I've taken Oxy 40s and Morphine 100s. I've been reading those could be lethal doses to those without a tolerance, so I'm thinking I am getting one. But people say opiate tolerance builds up quickly?

Anyone else on here like me and just seem to not build a tolerance? Also, I'm about 5'7'' and weigh about 117lbs.
 
Consider yourself lucky you don't have withdrawal. You probably don't want to hear this but I would definitely STOP TAKING OPIATES DAILY while your ahead. You are very lucky you are not caught in the HORRIBLE trap of physical dependance/withdrawal that opiates causes. I bet many people on this forum would give anything to be in your shoes.

I completely understand what you mean. For this reason I often take a week break in between binges now.
I notice minor withdraw effects, like cold sweats and sniffles but nothing else.
 
I was taking the perc 30s the blue A215s and I was up to 4-5 a day just to get high. The withdrawls are the worst you will ever go through, so as the other gentlemen said, stop while your ahead. If your not getting withdrawls, you are one lucky person. But if you do star withdrawing, I'd suggest getting some benzos. They really relax you when you feel like everything just sucks haha.

Well, as far as I know, there is no immediate release, tablet formula of oxycodone that comes at a 40mg dosage, only Oxycontin/ER formula's. I'm assuming that you're just popping these pills, not breaking the time release function and then consuming them. This would explain why you can tolerate both, as controlled release oxycodone is released over a 12 hour period, so an 40 mg OP would expel 3.3 mg/hour, wheras a 10mg Percocet (Instant Release Oxycodone + Acetomeniphen) releases all 10mg of Oxy at once. The same thing would go for the Morphine 100, as I'm pretty sure you're referring to the Extended Release formula as well..

This pretty much sums up just what I said about the difference in extended/continuous release formulas vs. instant release. You're dosing IR oxy throughout the day, and with the Morphine 100 Extended Release, you're getting similar effects, only they are lasting the whole day with just one dose. The whole point of Extended Release Formula's is that they allow a person to take only one dose with lasting effects due to the time release mechanism. It basically turns these short acting opiates (Oxy, morphine, Hydromorphone etc..) into long acting ones. I bet that if you were to defeat the time release mechanism of say a 100mg ER Morphine tablet, you would be in dangerous territory.
 
Oh I've experienced this first hand. When I first started using opiates, mostly codeine, I had little to no tolerance. I even quit cold turkey and suffered no w/d. Then I started abusing them again a few months later. My tolerance began to build,wds started to appear.

Then I moved onto oxy, and my full blown addiction started. Tolerance went through the roof and still is to this day. Withdrawal is agony.

Quit while you're ahead seriously.
 
Wow bro you sound just like me when I started..you will get withdrawals and a tolerance eventually! Stop while you can..soon you will end up doing dope like me and it has ruined my life..
 
WDs are not that unbeatable monster, just ride it out, in a week or two of no sun you'll be a brand new man, and may the sun may shine again and hopefully not burn your tongue.
WDs will catch up with you, sooner or later, I am pretty sure about that.
Just remember that you're the rider, and not the opposite.
Actually, unless you're supersensitive, 100mg of morphine, (even instantant release) orally, is not really that much, for someone whose been playing with their receptors for a whole year. Don't wanna give a bad advice, it is that opiates/oids potency vary so much, as well as their qualities, from one kind to other.
 
Yep, as others said, just because you don't have noticeable tolerance or physical dependence and therefore withdrawal symptoms yet does not mean it can't happen. It often takes a while for it to get to a point where you get serious withdrawals. Not to mention that it's very hard to keep taking the same length of breaks in between use and even if you are able to doesn't mean that will always prevent tolerance/withdrawal. We all have different sensitivities to different opioids and they are metabolized differently, so finding you get stronger effects from one opioid than another is not abnormal, plus as znegative said, time-release formulations are going to effect you much differently than IR forms, so dose isn't the only thing to consider.
 
Most new users don't get bad withdrawals. They continue to use and it creeps up on them. Provided they don't do something that's so reckless they die in the meantime.
 
If you really dont build a tolerance then you are just damn lucky.
It is pretty much technically impossible to NOT build a tolerance so i dont see how that happens for you...u are lucky, what more can i say lol
