Yeah most meds are very stable and expire dates mostly out of business reasons. My first experiences with opioids were similar, you need to find the sweet dose spot and get to know the effects, should this be your first date with Mrs. Mu-Opioid. And, sorry they are really the only exception where I tell such things, maybe read some long time reports, the majority of these hooked on opioids just intended to try once. But uf you happen to like it, and maybe run later into some real life problems, the brain

will remember and crave. And crave.
Crave.

I am hooked myself and contrary to common belief it's not the addiction, not the withdrawal but that even when with tolerance it begins to feel like youre only continuing to avoid w/d, the strong suppression of mental pain continues, maybe there is even less of tolerance than to the physical pain killing effects. I was off opioids more than once and recently more than 3 weeks but I just don't support it anymore. It's the same things that made me decide to start opioids in the first place but almost forgot and thought I had changed to the better. Wrrrong.
