Our First Opiate/Opioid Experiences

[TheLostBoys]

I had a friend approach me, wanting to get rid of some percocets. I had never tried any kind of pain killer before, and "uppers" were more my jam, but I decided to give them a try. I bought maybe 7 or 8 of them and brought them back to my apartment to do some research first. I learned that snorting them would be wasteful, and so I just swallowed a couple and washed them down with a glass of wine. (Yeah, not smart, but whatever...)

It was cool, but the feeling wasn't so intense that I felt compelled to do them again. Well, then my friend approached me with oxycontin, and when I saw how small they were and learned how much more oxycodone they contained, I just had to give them a try. He showed me how to suck the coating off, crush it up, and snort it. So, I sucked the coating off (even knowing full well that the coating wasn't the time release), crushed it up and took a little bump. I immediately liked it better than the percocets. From then on, it was OC 40s all day long.

Then, the formula changed. And believe it or not, I wasn't too upset. I mean, I was starting to go broke anyway. Long story short, and I'm sure that the story is the same for most everyone here, but Roxies blew up just like we all knew they would (and so, too, did the price). I couldn't afford buying Roxies anymore, and so I took the plunge into dope (sniffing it). I realized, "hey, this isn't so bad, and it's a hell of a lot cheaper..." and now here I am.

Yeah, so I guess you could say that it was a pretty smooth transition from one opiate to another. But I have no regrets.

You should be buying the new 80mg OP's for super cheap.

It would break my heart. I have some fond memories, and I wouldn't want to spoil that. Besides, I really like dope. It's really cheap, already a fine powder, and it's pre-packed in wax baggies. How can you beat that?

My first experience was with a 5mg Percocet. A few years ago a friend gave me one after I had been complaining of knee pain. It was nice and helped the pain, but I never really gave it a second thought until the pain started getting worse. The same friend came through with a few more Percocet. I decided to take 2 5mg and whoa..this is going to sound crazy to some but I was actually nodding. I couldn't believe how incredible it felt.

A few months later after the pain became too much to bear I finally went to the doctor and he wrote me a prescription for Percocet. I was on them for a while but recently was switched to Hydromorphone because my doctor was concerned about the effect of the apap on my liver.

Luckily I no longer have a "source" to get opiates other than my doctor, otherwise I'd be in a bit of trouble.

I was about 18 if i remember correctly and drunk. Me and a freind thought it would be a good idea 2 buy a bag of heroin each. We aquired clean spikes off a homeless guy and went 2 shoot up , i remember not using citric acid 2 break down the gear and also thinking yeah i like this feeling ,the rush etc. Worst decision i have ever made .
I'm 34 now and opiates have totally fucked me up or i totally fuked myself up ,whatever . Sometimes i wonder if i wasn't drunk would i have tried Heroin?
