im not trying to be a dick at all, i am honestly curious but....are you still living on the streets?
Nope. I just showed up back at my house one day about 2 weeks ago. My parents saw I was working all the time so didn't give me a hard time about it.
Speaking of which, my parents had drug tested me before I had gotten kicked out and the lab they sent it to said it tested positive for heroin, which surprised me since I thought that it would just show up as morphine. The results probably bugged my parents out since the results listed all the metabolites, so the 2 drugs I was on seemed like a bunch more.
For the valium I'm scripted it had me positive for diazepam, temazepam, and oxazepam. I don't know why they couldn't just say diazepam since that's all I took, and the others are the metabolites.
Then for the initial positive for opiates the lab listed heroin, morphine, and either codeine or one of those other drugs with codeine in the name like Dihydrocodeine.
So for the two drugs I was on it listed at least 6 drugs. Again, I was surprised that heroin was able to come up positive in my urine since I feel like I've heard that there's only a very small time window to test positive for heroin (I guess it's the 6-MAM that differentiates between a regular morphine positive and a heroin positive) and I thought it could only be done with blood samples shortly after getting high, but I guess I was wrong.
I think that this confirms my suspicions about why I feel heroin and morphine to be very different, and that's because the 6-MAM (which is said to cause most of the additional euphoria when compared to morphine alone) seems to be active in me for a long time which may have been how I was able to test positive for the heroin and not just morphine.
So maybe it's like codeine which has a percentage of people that really like it because they metabolize it differently (not sure if being able to metabolize it slower or faster is the good one) than the majority of people. Perhaps the people that love heroin but don't really care for morphine metabolize the 6-MAM differently than those that find heroin and morphine to be extremely similar.
