Over the last few years I've developed a taste for opiates, specifically Tramadol, but also Codeine on occasion from throat syrups. I took them for social anxiety and low mood/dysphoria.
I've mainly used Tramadol due to the ease of availability and reduced risk of dependency/tolerance. It was initially a wonder drug for me and life transforming for a while, but after changing supply and possibly due to prolonged use, the euphoria magic disappeared and I began to experience more of the negative side of Tramadol like agitation and anxiety. Tramadol is also quite hard on the liver and body in general I find if you take it daily over a long period.
In an attempt to regain the uplifting euphoria bliss I decided to give Poppy Tea a try which is basically weak opium. I got some dried poppy pods which I ground up into a fine powder and weighed out 7 grams (about 3-4 poppy small pods) and let it soak in hot water for about 15 minutes.
The effects were quite similar to Tramadol and Codeine. A comfortable warm feeling in the limbs, typical of an opiate high with some mild euphoria. Surprisingly I found it quite stimulating like Tramadol. I felt a bit edgy, like a caffeine buzz with thoughts coming more quickly. This was the effect I don't like much from Tramadol as it tends to amplify my anxiety symptoms (both physically and psychologically), so I was a bit disappointed. Nevertheless, the effects from a cup of tea were quite impressive and every bit as good as pills.
Over the next few weeks I experimented with different doses and went up to 6 large pods (about 20g) which did increase the euphoria significantly but was too stimulating for me and caused too much agitation.
In the right person and setting, I think poppy tea would be an excellent natural alternative to opiate pills, whether for medicinal pain-relief or just as an emotional pick me up.
You have to be careful though if using poppy tea and use sensibly as it goes without saying, tolerance and dependency is a real risk with opium, probably more so than with pills if re-dosing and/or using daily.
