Hey guys,
I just want to say that I really appreciate any and all advice I can get. Thank you for taking the time to read my thread.
So I picked up the old friend H again about 5 months ago, after 6 years... I live in spain, near barca... honestly it's not the best stuff i've ever had and nothing like my old stomping grounds in the NE of the states.
I've been back on for about 5 months now like I said, and have gotten up to about a gram a day, sometimes more. It was fun but I'm ready to quit again and maybe this time for good. My last detox was cold turkey, i know the pain of w/d's... and so I am writing here today to get your advice on a detox with the tools that I have.
So I basically have unlimited access to 30mg codeine / 500 mg paracetemol and .25 mg xanax - i mean I can get like 30 a week of xanax, and 40-60 of the codeine.
I also may or may not have about a gram of that one thing left atm, and can get more if absolutely necessary, but would rather not. Truth be told, if at all possible I'd like to do as little as possible as that.
So my question is, with what I have, what would you do to get off that stuff with the least pain and suffering as possible?
Like I said, last time I had literally nothing... and it was hell.
I usually go to bed and sleep about 8-10 hrs, and when I wake up I feel pretty bad but not exactly unbearable and I could go another couple hrs without absolutely having to take because I feel pretty much like total shit. My ROA is nasally. To get back to baseline of not feeling sick, it takes a decent sized line and that lasts about 4 hrs til i start feeling uncomfortable and another 4 hrs before it's pretty unbearable. This is just to give you an idea of where I am in terms of dependence and how long I can hold out without taking.
I was thinking about this, if you have any suggestions for improvement:
(oh yeah, I work for myself and don't really have a hard work commitment, so i'm pretty free to lay around and do nothing for 4-5 days)
1. Start tomorrow, when I wake up at around 11am, take just enough of THAT to not feel sick
2. Wait as long as possible, while in between taking a few codo's (codeine 30's) and try to prolong taking for 12 hrs. This would be 11pm when I'd be ready to go to bed.
3. Before bed time, take 1-2mg of xanax - 2 should knock me out pretty good, and hopefully sleep until morning
4. In the morning I'm going to be feeling like total garbage, nearly 24 hrs without, so I'll take enough to get back to baseline (one good sized line)
5. Repeat the above for 4-5 days, before going completely off that and riding it out...
6. Riding it out would include taking codo during the day, and then xanax at night if absolutely needed, but preferrably I stop the xanax after 4-5 days to avoid getting hooked on those
So what do you think? I don't know if it will work, but it's the best I can come up with.
Thanks again for reading.
Cheers,
B
