Relapse

[d3Xo-fan]

Three days ago I was basically clean. I was still in mild w/d's but they had reduced to the bearable. Then I sort of messed it up by sharing approx. a quarter gram of dope (smoked) with a friend. The next day (yesterday) we shared approx. half a gram, but a few hours before that I ate 25mg methadone.

When the dope and methadone release their grip on my receptors, do you think I will experience worse w/d's than I did a few days ago?

Probably about the same as they were a few days ago.

I sure hope so. Thank you for replying so quickly

Depends a lot on the duration and dose of your previous habit. How long and how much had you been using until you detoxed, if you don't mind my asking?

Your receptors are most likely still healing this short after WDing, but if you're lucky, your symptoms might even be less pronounced than during your last kick.

I agree with Tommyboy, it may be a tad bit easier, but the WD symptoms will probably be around the same..

It's hard to say how long my previous habit was since I've been on and off both methadone and bupe several times, and there have been times where I have relied solely on heroin. But before I took the dope and methadone I was down to 25mg codeine per day, and the day I relapsed I had actually planned to skip my dose entirely... Pretty bad luck and/or timing that my friend called and asked if I wanted to smoke some dope with him on that exact day.
