Nice Codeine Megathread

Always a bit of a bump at the end but the point of a taper is to keep that bump as small as possible. It really does help to let your body adjust to ever-lower levels over time rather than just stop dead. I think so anyway. Whenever I've CT'd I've always relapsed at the first possible opportunity. I'm very much a fan of tapering as long and slow and comfortable as possible. Why make it harder than it needs to be?

The last stages of any taper are always the hardest. This is why folk get stranded on 2ml of methadone for years on end. The actual w/d pains will be negligible at that stage but the psychological impact can be incredibly daunting. If you struggle with the endgame you can always switch to liquid dosing though. Is easier to shave off smaller increments than to drop 30mg at a time. You shouldn't need to though as you'll be well used to just DHC at that stage. If needs be it's always an option though.
 
Many thanks for all your help Shambles, greatly appreciated and will update next week

Cheers

At Boots anyway yeah. Other than that I've only tried independant pharmacies and they didn't have generics.

At the start of the year I would just buy a shitload in France - pure 400mg for about 2€50, and they taste good %) - and bring them back to London in a suitcase and they'd last me quite a while but unfortunately it eventually got to the point where the number of boxes I would've had to pack would have been sliiiiightly suspicious haha.

Boots have generics for 1.80, Tesco is the cheapest at 1.25
 
There's seriously no way...I've asked for them before and never gotten anything at that price :?
Doesn't really matter anyway, I'm taking a break from opiates and even if I weren't I stopped using codeine a while ago. Although have to admit I'm still annoyed I've been spending so much more than necessary :|
 
Hmm i did a dose last night around 350 mg and smoked quite alot of kush, went to bed without setting my alarm clock at 5am and woke up at 4pm. Killa

They do sell em pagey because i been to boots loads, they got own brand Paracetamol and codeine and own brand Ibuprofen and codeine.

Good luck and much strength to you Beasty! I'd take my hat off to you if I ever took it off ;)
Good on you :)
And yeah I've got to agree with Shammy - Taper the daily intervals when you can and yes, the last few stages are the hardest of all and a lot of that is to do with the psychology that we attached to such substances, so I would advise massively that you find something you enjoy that can keep you distracted from that shit :)

Seeing as I got my script incredibly late today, I had 420mg of Codeine crushed, all into my mouth and downed with those Lucozade Isotonic drinks (I need Electrolytes at present).
It's weird that it gives me energy - When nothing's in me I'm sluggish and always in pain, then Codeine in > Go go go go go do something productive or just chat shit on here or there or anywhere!

Well yeah, I always get their own brand and it costs me over £5 ...very odd. How many pills per box are you getting? Maybe I'm getting bigger boxes? (I get 32 pills)
 
Tolerance must have dropped somewhat, managed to utterly spang myself on ~450mg the other night. Proper nodding out and vomiting, not had that in years. Got lovely claw marks all over my boobs and stomach now too, yay. Always seems to be the way when I do it at my parents' and not at home. Can't be more than three weeks since I last did it but I guess that was enough. They were 30/500s tho so maybe lost less than I normally would in an extraction? Fuck knows. Really had my heart pounding too, more than stims ever have, though maybe that was anxiety, it went when I laid down with a cold towel and talked to girlthing for a bit.

Thats great thanks. Had a wobble on Saturday when I thought it would be a good idea to get some coke in and ended up dosing up to try and get to sleep.

I am back on scedule now and am on 4 30mgs tab 4 times a day and am dropping tomorrow to 4 x 3 tabs for 3 days.

Got plenty of time on my side and are determined. Its a nightmare as no one knows and have hidden it well, using hayfever, weed as a cover.

Just cant wait for that day when I do not have to take anything to be able to function normally.

We will get there!!! and good luck to you too
 
One more thing while I am at it, is that this is a great board and the relief to say out loud about it was immense. i know it is anonomous, but writing in public about it has been a great help. Thanks all :D
 
Got given 5 30mg codeine phosphate tablets so 160mg. Will I feel any different than when I do a CWE of co codamol ? I usually do 250mg extract.
Also can you tell by looking at the pills they are Codeine only ?
 
I have over a hundred 50mg tablets lying about my house, I get them prescribed for wisdom teeth pain and due to a clerical error got an extra batch in a repeat prescription.

I have accidentally got a buzz from taking 4 at a time but I didn't explaore further because it turned my tummy upside down. What is a good dosage for a decent buzz without any sick feelings?
 
Dunno because i never get nausea from it no matter the dose, 160mg should be fine

Erm as MK said there are various pill ID websites online but yeah, be 100% sure. I OD'ed on ibuprofen a few months ago and I can assure you it isn't a pleasant affair :|
As to whether you'll feel any different - well basically, a fair amount of the drug is lost in CWEs so if you were taking 250mg of pure codeine when you usually CWE 250mg codeine, you'd feel the pure codeine considerably more than usual. But since you've only got 160mg I'd guess you're just gonna be a bit underwhelmed compared to your usual effects.
Unless you have a low natural tolerance, 160mg is pretty low for codeine.

So you took 200mg? You'll just get more nauseous the more you take. Codeine is very prone to provoking nausea (it used to make me throw up almost every time, when even heroin never did...) so if you're oneo f the unlucky people who's susceptible to it, taking more will just make things worse.
Anti-histamines help, otherwise you just have to suck it up if you're determined to use the codeine really.
For a first time dose I definitely wouldn't take much more than 200mg. Maybe 250mg but you're just likely to feel sick and throw up the whole time. Definitely no more than that.
 
Aw thank you so much for the in depth advice! I did enjoy the feeling but then my stomach turned, I hate feeling sick or an upset tummy. Also made me heavy constipated which was not cool man.

Thanks for the advice though. Will try again soon and hopefully it will be better.
 
No prob :) and yeah I definitely know the feeling. I find that usually when I've taken a bit too much and am starting to feel nauseous like that it helps to just lie back, close your eyes and take some long deep breaths until it passes...just avoid moving basically. But if you've really taken too much that's unlikely to help unfortunately.

But as I mentioned, if you take some anti-histamines about the time you take the codeine they'll help with a number of unpleasant side-effects, like the nausea and itching.

Anyway yeah, hope it's a bit less queasy next time!
