WD - opiates - what do you think?

[coopie]

Hi,

I now use everyday at exactly the same time everyday. It used to take me at least 24 hours to feel WD symptoms and 3 days at the most. Now it seems that if I go without only a couple of hours past the time I would usually use, my stomach cramps and the symptoms start. I guess I'm just wondering is this typical? How does this experience compares to others? and does it indicate what kind of WD I would have if I went the whole way? (cold turkey)

Thanks,

Coopie

Sounds about right for dependence... escape while you can!!

There are alot of withdrawal threads you can find by searching in Other Drugs and Basic Drug Discussion to help you get through it if you decide to come off of them. Good luck man.

yeah seriously stop. I would love to be able to make it 24 hours between doses. If you keep up youll be waking up sick at 4 in the morning and have to dose to get back to sleep before you know it.

Some IV users report that they must shoot up at least three times a day to avoid withdrawal. Your body is probably accustomed to using at the exact same time everday and is telling you somethings wrong when you are late on your dose.

Cheers guys!

To the Bold one - yeah, I'd be up for an idea of your plan for sure! thanks heaps for that!

I haven't been on here for a while - so sorry for the late reply to this thread...

I've been advised to get onto Bupe and taper down my opiates as much as poss before I start Bupe - (could be late next week) I don't feel adequately prepared for detox, but I have a deadline looming.
