Opiate and opioid withdrawal: Coping strategies and medication

[mydrugbuddy]

Good thanks, I think i may be in the clear as far as quitting bupe is concerned, i think it's missin accomplished. I just feel a bit cold sometimes, but thats probably because it is fucking cold. :-/

And you ?

*mission

 

[wcote]

Sorry, I meant coming OFF opiates for a week or so I would cum within a minute! God I was scared that was going to always stay like that!

 

[Sammy G]

Hahahahahaha, I know the feeling. :D

Actually, it saved me some time in the mornings. Though it's not good news if you're in a relationship.

I can certainly relate to that Wcote.Whenever I was clucking from heroin I could come without even having an erection.

 

[wcote]

Your drugs worker didn't tell me about that one! Neither did any pals of mine, until I mentioned it and they ripped me saying it never happened to them.... Then the next day saying it did! Wankers!

Anyway slept for 19 hours, from 6am Wednesday, till 3am today. Woke up slight with WD for codeine (for my back pain) had 30mg tablet left and 2 1.8mg codeine and brufen. Had the 30mg reckoned straight away had the 12.8 at 11am cus I was in such a mad rush with work reckoned I could make it throughtout the day. Just got out of work with runny nose, bit sweaty. Just cwe some codeine now. God its only bloody codeine!!!! Used have a smack habit and bupe didn't think little old codeine for my back would cause me this! :-D


Just waiting for my codeine script to be faxed through.

 

[Eveleivibe]

Yea codeine can do that hence why I'm on suboxone don't be harsh on yourself it 's the psychological thats the worst.
Opiates are opiates which is what a lot don't get (but I won't start that debate again lol) xxxx

 

[Eveleivibe]

What I love about suboxone is I could read every word you wrote withiut feeling a thing, no trigger nothing. Hope you're better soon n for the record i'ce talked to a few ex H addicts who have had codeine addictions - a few on codeinefree (sorry for DP I can't edit)

 

[wcote]

Yeah, I take my codeine for my back problems. So I wouldn't be coming off it anytime soon. Due to having it for the rest of my life, bad surgery made little difference.

But I'm still addicted to it. Still bit surprised when my nose started running!

Just caught up on last few pages... congrats, MDB!

As others have pointed out, don't be looking for a "sting in the tail" cos there isn't one. Not if you taper properly. Which you have done so...

 

[mydrugbuddy]

Cheers Mr S. That's one monkey off my back. You played a big part in enabling that you know.

 

[Shambles]

No I didn't - you are the one who is no longer using bupe. You did all the tapering and withdrawing. You flushed the last of it before you actually ran out. You didn't order more. I know that other peoples' thoughts and opinions do help cos I have been helped by them myself, but ultimately, it's all on you. Be proud of what you have achieved - the boy did dun good

(see ya in the benzo w/d thread sometime down the line )

 

[mydrugbuddy]

yeah..........sometime.........

I have just done a fukin huge rattle . Won't be the last that's for sure but i think it deserves at least some recognition .

I would put it some where at around .4/5 of good gear a day & 150/200mg of oxy on top a day . I've been doing that amount for probably 3 months . Well after a week off spectacular Clucking i am about normal which is 50ml methadone , oh i forgot it was 60 when i started this binge so there is another bit of extra pain .

All i want is a Ciggy n i would be golden , wish my giro cleared at midnight like most folks not fukin 5 am ...........

 

[Shambles]

Why go through a rattle like that instead of tapering down if you knew you had it coming up, Brimz? Not being sarcy (as I'm sure you realise) just interested is all.

And congrats, you hardcore mofo you

 

[brimz]

taper off that you joking , what with ? Seriously it isn't my style n i have no intention of giving up opiates either just needed to get the Gorilla of my back .

I can handle a small monkey no problem .

If i could just get that ciggy ,

Congrats Mistah. Now you can put your focus on totally being a Youtube star and make us some dosh.

 

[Shambles]

taper off that you joking , what with ?

With the hair of the dog wot bit ya. Is what I always did anyway no matter how extreme a habit I had at the time (and mine were broadly comparable with yours back in the day, as they say). Having said that, it didn't always work out that way. Man did that mid-late '90s ubergear break me into teeny-tiny lil pieces time after time. Sometimes it's too good to taper, I know

 

[brimz]

This gear was the best i've had since the mega drought as well , i would even go as far as to say it was Proper Tackle .

Giro Cleared !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AUIHK. N,MC

fAGS , hOOKERS , YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH:D

 

[Shambles]

That's quite the claim coming from you, Brimizini.

*must. resist. temptation*

(actually don't need to resist that hard thankfully. there is much goodness to be had from the recreational only approach to gear and related goodnessess i must say)
