Hey Guys and Gals.

So I have a buddy who used to use opiates pretty frequently (mainly pills). He's had a few withdraws but the last time was the worst and he refuses to go through another one. So lately he's been real good at "chipping" with his fun and only uses Fri and Sat. Last weekend was a 3 day weekend for him so he got super throwed that weekend. He only used opiates friday n sat but used quite a bit and got really drunk on sunday. He wasn't feeling to great tues and today at work because he was so worn out from the weekend. He started feeling like a mild sensation of withdraw. He thinks 75 percent of it was in his head but his connect is going out of town tomorrow so he picked up a fat $20 bag today. He did just a line of it to put him in a better mood and is going to save the rest till Friday. Do you think he'll have any issues with withdraws if he does a little tonight and a little friday? I know 20 isn't much to you pros but he is sensative to withdraws/come downs. He's fairley new with H and since the last withdraw he only uses about a $20-40 on the weekend. Thanks for any advice!
 
I'd cut back for at least a few weeks, to allow any low level dependance to go. Personally I'd use non opiate substitutes such as Kava before using again.

When I chipped on poppt tea, I had a rule not to use more than twice a week, either on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Used Kava in the week (from ground root or extract) if I wanted to use something, or a couple of beers. Kava prepared correctly and with adequqte dose can be pretty euphoric and sedating. It may also allay some opiate withdrawal symptoms.

Sounds like the beginning of addiction, again. If your buddy was a real "chipper" -assuming one can be- he wouldn't break his schedule no matter what.

The best advice is for you, I mean your buddy, to take at least a few weeks off and never deviate from the schedule. Good luck.
