jus ended up getting hooked on that so i got enuf ills to taer but thts gonna ause it more

as soon as my opiates wear off it comes back or it wears off about afternoon time regardless of dose

ive takenlike 200mg oxy, i took heroin on the weekend, injected once and snorted the rest (turned number 3 into number 4 and sniffed liquid nasty but it worked)

that has sky rocketed my toleranee, i dont want to go on methadone but the rls and depression is horrible.

ive tried to kkilll mysselfon methadone loads last year and that has permanently affected my tolerance

Hi,

I'm really sorry to hear you experiencing this.

If you need assistance right away please call an ambulance. If this is urgent, please feel free to contact your suicide hotline.

For restlessness, artane and cogentin can help a lot.

For opioid addiction, I'd advise asking a doctor about suboxone. 200mg of oxycodone is a lot!

Diazepam has its own addictive attributes. I'd again talk to a doctor about this. Being addicted or dependent on benzos is bad enough, but being dependent without a prescription is many times worse. There are actually anti-anxiety medications without this potential for addiction/dependence.

None of us here want to see you OD. You can make it out of this debacle, but it will take a lot of effort. I think you're up to it, hmm?

I take the same medicine for RLS, maybe you need to up your dose? How much do you take? Im on 1mg atm. Sometimes people need to use 3mg for it to actually work.

This is all great advice. I recommend cogentin over artane because artane isn't really big in medical use here for psych patients because of its abuse potential in schizoaffective patients

Have you ever considered trying low dose kratom just to take the edge off or would you not be able to control your usage?

clonidine and gabapentin can help. dont take seroquel, trazodone or antihistamines. hot showers and exercise help. ive heard potassium helps too
