Hi guys. Ive been on this site for a while now, but never posted. Ill get right to it.

Back in january I started using (at most) 15 mg of roxycodone a day in the nose. That went on til about about a month ago, when I decided enough was enough. I was clean for about 2 weeks. The first weeek .was blah. I got no sleep, and the bathroom was my home, but it wasnt nausea. I used one methadone over a 4 day period. I started using again. About one whole pill a day (give or take a quarter of a pill) for the past 3 weeks. Where on the scale would you consider my tolerance? And do you think I should use some sort of bupe to kick it again?
 
Personally I would consider this very, very low. Not to minimize what may feel like a problem for you but this is (in my opinion) on a scale of 1-10, with one being occasional use and really no tolerance or dependence and 10 being the very highest addiction, abuse and dependence, I would say you are at a 2. Don't use suboxone because then you are just dragging out something that you will be over on your own very quickly.you are just adding to your dependence and tolerance. Some people may end up disagreeing but I think a lot of people who have issues with physical dependence and withdrawal and high tolerance would give anything to be in your shoes! I know I would.
 
I think ur tolerance is pretty low. Btwn 1-2. I agree with ^^ don't use subs. It sounds like u don't really need them. That could create a whole new problem for u.
