Long time lurker, light opiate rec user. If I'm using opiates I tend to use Norco 10/325s and use about 4-6 a day. Nothing amazing, but enough to keep me good through the day. Years back I almost became addicted to percs and have since been very adamant about keeping my uses strictly light.. but I may have pushed myself too far a few days ago.
I was out of Norco and had some 60mg ER morphine sulfate pills around that I never got to use. At first it was great, for someone with my tolerances, and I was breaking them in half and taking half every 3-4 hours. One day I just couldn't feel anything from them and decided to take a full 60 and then another 60 an hour or two after that. So in about 3 hours I took 150mg of the stuff and was feeling pretty nice until the third hour in, when I started noticing heart palpitations. After that, I got really tired. I'd fall asleep without noticing it and with a surge of adrenaline I'd wake up to find that I had fallen asleep right where I was and in the middle of whatever it was that I was doing. My breathing became really light and air wasn't doing much to cool me down. I was sweating and every breath I took was warm. I was forced to breathe through my mouth because breathing through my nose just wasn't bringing in enough air and I'd get out of breath. I was trying my hardest to not fall asleep but it was happening anyway and when I did nod off my body would violently shudder, my heart would flutter and I'd wake up not knowing when I fell asleep. My right hand became slightly numb and pupils dilated but not to pinpoints. I was pretty dizzy and lightheaded. I eventually managed to fall a long time later-- almost a full day. I have severe insomnia so I think that may have been something in the mix hurting my chances to sleep.
My question is, was it serious? Was it just too much for my tolerance and I was fine, or did I push it too far? I was still pretty drowsy the entire day after too.
I'm 27 years old, male, 195lbs and relatively healthy and active. Non-drinker.
