Heres my use since I took a two week break a while ago. I took 10-30 mg hydrocodone for about a month. The last 7 days I've done about 6-7 mg oxymorphone a day. I feel like I'm waking up with much stronger withdrawal symptoms now after using the oxymorphone.

My vacation(time off from work) is march 20th to the 29th. I was going to take 10 mg oxymorphone the next 2 days on the 11th and the 12th. I really want to get high the next couple days, it's just getting through the next week that has me worried.

I know that my habit isn't that big and the withdrawal symptoms aren't that bad compared to a big habit but they're still incompatible with work as far as I'm concerned. I have 100 mg hydrocodone and limitless loperamide. How much do think I should take a day to feel normal throughout the next week? I was thinking maybe 6 mg loperamide and maybe 10-15 mg hydrocodone a day. The morning withdrawals are much stronger from oxymorphone but I'm not sure if it has to do with the shorter half life or if I'm just more physically dependent.
 
Well there's no doubt that oxymorphone is a more addictive drug than hydrocodone is, but you said you have 100 mg hydrocodone left? Well why don't you use just enough to get you through your day each day. If you have clonidine that would help aswell, I'd get some ibuprofen too. I'm sure it won't be too too bad.
 
Alright that's good if you don't think it will be that bad. I was just worried because that much oxymorphone a day is equal to quite a bit of hydrocodone. The oxy gives me an awesome rush from a very low amount but the effects are very short lived so I snort some more of course.
 
Just use as little hydrocodone as it takes to keep you from being completely sick. According to the opioid converter, 8mg oxymorphone is only 24mg of hydrocodone... does that seem right? I didn't take cross tolerance into account (used oral dosing for the conversion).

Do you have access to any benzodiazepines? They can help quite a bit.
