hi, i'm new to bluelight, so i'm sorry if this question is redundant or anything. But i need a specific answer. So about 30 minutes ago i parachuted 15 mg (the 5/500 mg pills) of Vicodin and i am not feeling the effects. I had a little to eat. My question is, should i parachute or plug another one? or just hold off? I have 2 more pills left but i dont want to kill myself. its my first time
i am 118 pounds/5'1/female
Thanks!

i would just wait an additional 30 minutes and if you're not feeling it by then you can take another. From what you said it doesnt sound like you have much experience with opiates. In my opinion

i think you'd be just fine taking the remaining 2. You will definitely be able to tell if you've taken too much. Your breathing would become shallow, you'd most likely vomit, and you'd have a hard time keeping your

eyes open. If it were me id have taken all five at once lol. But i have a pretty high tolerance. God.. i cant even remember the last time i felt good off Vikes. So enjoy them while you can before tolerance sets

in and they become worthless lol
 
there's no danger with all the Acetaminophen? ha who i am kidding. i dont care much if i fuck up my liver. i actually have taken vicodin before but i took like 2 expired pills (orally) and it didn't do anything. i really want the euphoric high.

You don't want to fuck up your liver trust me. If you do, it's either a long, painful death or hydrogen cyanide, if you were smart enough to get some. Don't joke about that. Don't joke about your drug use. Have fucking respect. Respect the drugs as if they were your mother and father. Practice your humour on something else.

You need to learn doing a CWE, cold water extraction. Buy a bottle of plain Tylenol pills and practice with these at least 10 times before doing it for real. 1mL of water/pill.
 
sorry, i didn't mean any disrespect. but i wasn't trying to be funny. i'm going through a difficult phase in my life and sometimes i feel like i wouldn't care if i died (though i would never intentionally overdose). so maybe you shouldnt be so quick to judge.

Kk just wanted to see your reaction, it looks like 15mg won't cut it ^.^

When it kicks in you will have a cottony feeling and the post I made won't offend you anymore. Don't go over 25.
 
You should always use caution when dosing opiates, especially your first time. You should give yourself at least 30 minutes after taking a given dose before taking anymore, and even then, dose slowly.

My advice... save yourself a world of hurt and don't get started with opiates.

If you're going through a rough time and could use some support, check out The Dark Side, a really great forum here that can help.
 
Welcome to Bluelight. Yeah definitely check out the Dark Side. It's really a warm place with a lot of supportive people who can relate (Not that we're cold fish in OD though;)).

You really don't want to get to this point. If you take too much, especially if you've reached the point of vomitting and difficulty remaining conscious and/or breathing, there is really no option but to seek emergency medical attention.

Be careful redosing. If you take another 10mg, you're taking another 2/3 of your original dose, which is a large increase. I would wait at least another thirty minutes to make sure you let the first 15mg reach their peak effects. If you're not happy at that point I would take another one orally. I'm not sure about plugging all that apap.

All of that being said, if you are in an emotional state where you don't care if you live or die, please seek help! Although that feeling is something I'm sure most of us on this site can understand (myself definitely included), it is not a healthy attitude and it is very dangerous to start using drugs to make yourself feel better. Definitely the way to fast track yourself to addiction. Find a therapist, a support group, or just a close friend or family member to talk to. Don't be afraid to reach out for support, because you deserve to feel better. I'm sure almost anyone here would be willing to talk via pm if you want someone to talk to about what you're going through. And as others have mentioned, TDS is a great subforum full of the support of some very wonderful people.

Very well said. I definitely should have mentioned that in my earlier post. Those are definitive signs of possible overdose^
in which case.. emergency medical help WILL be required.
 
Don't plug them... I would pop another 1, max of 2. Wait like 30 minutes beforehand though. But yeah, I really don't ever "feel" much of any decent high under 20mg of vicodin.
 
Can't you get just the opioid? The paracetamol is dangerous is high quantities, especially when you take it often (not a small chance if you take opioids ;))
You can take acetylcysteine to protect your liver a bit, but it's better to avoid.

Thats where the CWE (cold water extraction) comes in. It separates the paracetamol from the opioid. But IMO i really don't see the need to do it with only 5 pills.

A healthy liver is supposed to be able to tolerate around 4000mg's a day. So if it were me i'd take em how they are, and just bite them once or twice, and take on an empty stomach.

4000 mg's a day, in 4 doses, not at once. And that's not when you use it chronically... and you must be healthy, otherwise it's no 4x 1000 mg a day for you.

THIS. using drugs as an escape is an easy out until addiction sets in....then you are going to have WAY more problems, as you will be depressed AND dependent. trust me. major addict, here.

also, you do NOT want to fuck your liver up. i used to be an extremely heavy drinker and when you start experiencing liver failure...well...it's hard to explain but it is one of the grossest and most painful feelings i've ever experienced. just watching out for you. it's your body..
