I don't shoot for the nod by taking larger doses than I need to, but when it happens it is oh so nice. Opiates just put me in a good place, the nod is somewhere opiates have taken me on a few occassions, and when they have it has been heavanly. I did get a bit frustrated once that I wasn't nodding, but it was oxy, not so noddy, nevertheless I felt great. IV Fentanyl in hospital setting has induced the nod, but there were other meds involved (anti-histamines and anti-emitics) so that may have dampened the experience, but the nod from fentanyl wasn't as euphoric as with other opiates. It was pleasant, no doubts about it, and I hadn't a care in the world, but it just wasn't very cozy compared to other opiates. The rush, though, was nice. Of course I was in the hospital so it wasn't exactly a cozy enviroment.
