Yeah, the whole occasional dosing thing sure does solve the dependence problem, but easier said than done. I had taken them like you did for 3-4 years, no problems at all. Then I got hurt playing baseball, and got scripted a more steady supply of pain medication. I found that my pain could be masked, and I could feel great. And then the rest is history.. tolerance.. shooting dope.. blah blah blah.
I am glad you guys have kept it under control, but just don't think you are immune because it hasn't happened to yet. Hopefully you never have eto experience the bullshit of hardcore junkyism. But remember most junkies didn'tjust wake up one day and say I wanna shoot dope every day, etc.. It is a slow progression most of the time.
Ive only known 4 people that shot up & they all said they went to heroin pretty fast by snorting it first because they liked the rush of getting high quickly & it lasted a long time.
