hey yo blue and green lighters....

This man writing get addicted very easy to any substance he falls in love, and now is worried about himself as it´s first time ever he manage to get(and experiment) some oxy´s and now cant stop taking those pills... I have a little supply of 20mg oxycontin pills(around 30 pills left...) and shit... I go to work and cant wait to get home at end the day to take the shit... I m taking only 20 mg a day... I snort around 10 mg to feels it kick in and eat the other 10 mg´s to have a longer buzz... but this shit is so good I cant stop thinking about it. The only opiate I have some experience is codeine...but codeine dont give me the urge to take it..when I need to feel relaxed I love to take around 120 mg of codeine and smoke a spliff to have a good time. Even when I get some morphine tablets, I just take it from time to time and dont feel hooked... but this oxycodone is the best stuff I ever tried. Thanks lord I dont go to higher doses, I m trying to control myself to stay at 20mg a day as long as I can, but I wanna take more and more, it´s a battle I dont know if I can hold for long time. I have a source to buy them and it´s bad for me as I know myself lol.
is that substance so easy to get addicted or it´s about me ? I remember when I started to take coke long time ago, it hooked me, but dont get even closer to what Im feeling now. Any suggestions will be apreciated. sorry for bad english guys. peace.
 
i'm also at 15-20mg tolerance, like yourself. it's stayed that way for 6 months, so it's not impossible to keep it at the same dosage... not exactly a great length of time, but it's something

this phrase keeps getting repeated but it really is a "slippery slope" ... i haven't ever done it more than twice in a week, not more than 5x / month. i always write the days that i've taken it on a calendar. also helps that i don't have a solid connect, helps with limiting my use

try to keep busy with something else, join a sports team?
or read all the threads in the dark side forum, hopefully that'll be a good reminder to not use much. i know it helps me
if you really feel like you have to do drugs, do some other non-opiate... smoke a joint, eat some shrooms, idk

good luck
 
Oxycodone (and all opiates) is tough, because you will literally lie to yourself, and justify things, and come up with "plans" that you think you are going to stick to...

(in theory lol!) If you can put 2 days of zero oxycodone, zero codeine, none of that shit... in between of your 20mg, you may at least have a longshot to not get hooked. If you take 20mg every day to get high, very soon 20mg isn't going to do shit. And you will need like 50mg to feel anything and then 50mg at night... ++...

Que 4/5 junkies saying, "That was me 5-10 years ago."

Your life isn't guaranteed to go to shit with an oxy addiction, but with how expensive and strong the compulsion is to take it once you're hooked, odds are that it's certainly not going to improve your life.

It's good that you realize that you're already getting wrapped, and at 20mgs a day, that's a really low dose. Get the fuck out before you get physically addicted. If you need to, go see a psych, addiction specialist, whatever...just don't take any damn subs/methadone that you may be offered, you certainly don't need it at this point...
 
Great now, in 6 months you will be in a much different place.

Don't keep doing it. Stop and wait a week in between uses if you want this same feeling to stay. Otherwise you will end up spending thousands on these pills and there will come a day when your supply is broken and your source is out. Then your fucked.
Then they come back around and you buy another thousand worth. You think it's fun and it's great, but the end result is hell in a handbasket.

I have an injury and it goes away and comes back. when it goes away it takes me 6 months to stop. Lucky it's rx'd to me. But I've been in the situation where I had no DR giving it to me and buying 50 pills off the street for 20X the price in the pharmacy. Seriously.

thx for the advice buddy. I will try to dont take any opiate , even little codeine. time to smoke weed as much as I can...
 
if they say OP on one side don't snort it you will lose almost all the drug this way

They are not OP mate. I live in brazil and we dont have OP´s here. It says EX ... easily crushable into a fine powder. I snort 10mg and get a buzz in a matter of minutes ...and its veryyyy addictive :(

I will try to reduce my intake as much as I can, maybe only weekends. And there is no methadone and stuff over here , in my country there is no opiate abuse , very rare to find someone who takes morphine or whatever(heroin just doesnt exist in brazil...) . If I get hooked I gotta fix it by myself , probably ! fortunately I have other drugs to take and will try to reduce the oxy till I dont need to think about it... thanks

No doubt about that, very addictive might be a understatement. I'll only say what has been pretty much mentioned already, the longer you wait to stop the harder it gets. And I can also say if you have them you will do them, so if you want to stop the option of putting that bottle of 20s in the bathroom cabinet is not going to work. That is just way too easy and accessible to avoid. You could bury it 30 feet in your backyard and it probably won't stop you from digging it up. I can tell you what I'd be doing right now if I knew there was 30x 20 mg oxys buried in my backyard, it'd be me, shovel in hand and digging. And that'd only last me around 2 days with my tolerance.
 
It's commonly believed that obsession (obsessive thoughts) are a component of addiction. If you can't stop thinking of them that's a very real sign you are crossing over into this territory.
 
.. I have tried to get clean 5x on my own with Subs, Thomas method ect. I have now surprisingly been clean for 3 weeks. Longest time in 7 years. I thankfully had almost no physical withdrawals just now dealing with the depression and insomnia. Getting B6 and L-tyronon (?) I have it written down. I went out of state and got the Naltrexone implant. Best thing I have ever done. This isn't rapid detox. I am so thankful I got the implant, naltrexone shots, medication to avoid the physical. I was so sedated I said and did things I still have no recollection of. A 24 hour nurse was present too. Not going to say it wasn't and still isn't hard, still not sleeping well even with aids. Dropped 12lbs (I'm tiny as it is) but my appetite is back, I keep myself busy with work fiancé and friends and remind myself what I DONT want to go back to again. I wish more people were talking about Naltrexone. Legit saved my life. I use to do up to 10 30s a day. Ur brain always needs more and more. Taper one before it's too late
 
Mental u will always deal with. But different per person and depends how much you took. No physical cravings. No sweats. No restless legs nothing. Legit skipped all physical crap and dealing with a tad of PAWS cuz I was a big user for so long. More money more problems right? Didn't have to be sober before implant either. I did one before I walked into the door.

Ding ding here I come.

To the OP, I started using opiates when I was 15, I was using small amounts of codiene from time to time, at super low doses. Hell I even stopped using codiene cold turkey at doses of 400mg daily twice in the early days and got no withdrawals. Skip 5 years forward, I'm battling an addiction from hell on 400-500mg of oxycodone a day. Your doses are absolutely tiny, seriously, before you ruin your life I advise you to search and look up all the stories regarding opiates and how they slowly creep into your life, engulfing it before you very eyes as you feel helpless to stop it. You're ahead at the moment and have a perfect opertunity to throw the drugs that will destroy your life away for good.

I know, you probably won't believe what I'm saying, or what anyone else says on the Internet. You'll think "oh, I won't get that bad, ill limit my dosage. Oh I won't get that bad blah blah..." You will. You will turn into the stories you've read up on 5 years down the line and just think, what the fuck went wrong? It catches up with everyone. Nobody is safe, and I mean nobody, from the grips of an opiate addiction if they are not using it for legitimate reasons.

Take this advise and it will be the best decision you made in your life.

That you said is true m8. I will take them and no matter where I hide it from myself Im going to take it. I will take all the stuff I have and will try not buy it again for a good time(dont know if it´s gonna work as I know a guy that can get me oxy´s whenever I wanrt...)
at least I have no tolerance, 20 mg give me a good buzz , can make it last for a couple days. Just worried I can get hooked and they are expensive over here and its bad for me, dont wanna put my money in drugs, not again... I had big big troubles with coke in past, used to snort around 2 to 3 grams per day...that´s a lot. And coke is not expensive as the oxys are :S

probably I cant stop thinking because it´s so good !
 
regardless that they are the EX pills snorting oxy won't get you as high as taking it orally

I noticed that...but I like to snort a little because it kicks in very quick. but when I eat it, shit...it lasts really longer and the effects are amazing. Never tried higher doses, how is the feeling of a considerable dose of oxy ? is anything similar to heroin ? just asking because I never tried H
