I made my best guess as to where to post this. I tried searching and couldn't find anything on this forum or elsewhere. No one I know irl has this issue, but if I eat at all while on opiates they completely wear off almost instantly. Everyone I know can eat a full meal but if I even take a couple bites I come down and sometimes start wd's much sooner than I would otherwise. Its starting to cause problems with my health especially since I work hard and its usually over 100 degrees where I work. Any feedback or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you
 
Food does play a role in the effects you get from opiates. If I start eating after a dose has already kicked in I start to feel more sedated. What ROA do you use?
 
I don't get sedation from most opiates(except super high dose fent morph or dilaudid)or from eating on them. I use every roa(except iv and im), and the only roa I haven't come down on from eating is plugging, which makes sense. Everyone I know swears that they get no reaction from eating on any opiate regardless of roa. Maybe im just built wierd idk. Thank you for throwing in sir.
 
I come down after eating if I have taken opiates an hour before......that's why I always eat before I dose.

I always eat in the morning before I dose as well.......I can't take any opiates w/o having food in my stomach first, or I will get sick.

The only opiate I ever took & kept getting higher after I've eaten is Opana.

To me its a waste of an opiate if I eat after I ingested opiates......so I eat first, then I dose about 30 minutes later.
 
I usually avoid eating before or after I dose. Sounds like I should just accept that I need to eat and try eating beforehand. If im taking my doses orally it may lower potency but my health is more important. I'll try it out and see how much it affects my results. Thank you everyone for the replies.
 
Well in that case definitly try to utilize the rectal ROA as much as possible so you can eat a healthy meal, plus you get much better bioavailability out this ROA.

Clearly this is not practical AT work but maybe you could do it right after breakfast, before you go to work; after lunch, on your break; and after dinner. I don't know how often you have to dose to not go into withdrawals so maybe this plan won't work for you, or will it?
 
Yeah, I know exactly what you're talking about. Some people don't eat when they're using because of the simple fact that they cannot afford both food and drugs...it gets to that point if you do them long enough. However, the fact that you're eating them will be directly impacted by whether or not your body can immediately process the drug because there is or isn't something in your digestive system already. I would never advise that someone start injecting them because you're opening up a new door to hell when you go down that path, but someone who isn't me began sniffing them and even then they noticed that they would get a better high based on whether or not they had something in their stomach at the time.

I don't know how heavy your habit is, but I would say that you should time it so that you do it when you don't have to eat soon after or you haven't eaten within the past couple of hours. There's no special way of getting around it if taking them orally is your method of use.
 
Completely identify with you OP. I'm currently on methadone which does not cause that. But when I used heroin or oxy or fentanyl I know exactly what you mean. I IVd dope, occasionally snorted it, fent was usually buccally, and oxy usually oral

I would not want to eat if I had dosed a while before because if wd was on the way eating would cause it to arrive much much sooner. I always made sure I had a couple bags for after dinner. If I didn't then I didn't eat cause I wouldn't want to get sick.

I never thought it was weird cause I knew other people who were the same way.

I wouldn't get sick if I are soon after dosing but I usually didnt want to eat at that point. So like I said when I knew I was going to eat I'd make sure to have more opiates/opioids. I always assumed it had something to do with the glucose in your bloodstream.
 
I usually dose 3 to 6 times a day depending on wether im at home or at work, respectively. As for plugging at work im already a seasoned vet at sticking things in my derriere at the rig I'll climb down into a rolloff or an empty frac tank haha. Sometimes we have a 3 bedroom trailer(I share it with 7 other dudes) that I can use while ob duty if I'm real sneaky.

I just tried out eating then dosing 45 mg of dros and while it took longer to kick in im satisfied with the result. I haven't eaten before dosing in years, convinced myself it was a waste. I think I'm going to have some good results as far as weight is concerned. I'm currently 6'3" and 165lbs. I'll keep yall posted as to how much of a difference it makes usage wise and weight wise.

Thank you guys, having a few people that could relate to my issue definitely helped me overcome this terrible mental roadblock. Great harm reduction potential here, I wonder how many other pill users have the same issue and slowly starve themselves because of it? As for dopers I haven't tried it so im not sure if theres a great way around it except for having more drugs. Seriously guys this means a lot to me im very grateful for all the help!

when I was primarily using the oral route I would skip lots of meals just because I knew it would fuck up the high. I'm already a really skinny guy and once my jeans started falling off my waist I knew it was time for a change.
 
I have the same problem, except it's with every drug I do. Anytime I eat even a bite of food while I'm high off of anything especially weed, I'm instantly sober. It's so annoying.
 
Personally, I dont notice this happen to me with opiates, but definitly weed and some other drugs. Not sure what causes it but If I smoke a fat blunt then immediately eat a big meal, by the time im done eating im not stoned anymore. I just took a shot of dope and I am about to eat soon so I will see how it effects me and I will come back and let you guys know.
