2. What is your experience with opiates, which ones do you use?
First was hydrocodones, for my wisdom teeth when I was 16. Surprisingly, the wisdom teeth didn't hurt at all after the 1st day so I was just taking the Vic's to relieve boredom. Other than that, codeine, darvocet, oxycodone (most available forms), hydromorphone, PP Tea, fentanyl (lollypops, and for a while my friend had fentanyl blotters - pretty cool actually), tramadol, morphine (lame-ass low B/A pills), methadone, suboxone, opium, and the big H.
3. How often do you use opiates?
Usually every day.
4. Why do you use opiates?
I liked the effects - euphoria, energy, and relaxation - from the beginning. I guess I got into them a little more heavily about a year ago when I was living with my parents and working. I had a lot of anxiety and I wasn't on such great terms with my parents, so I'd be kind of pissed off and unhappy around the house most of the time, but opiates gave me a fresh perspective and fresh energy - on 40-80mg of oxycodone I wouldn't be nodding too hard, but I'd feel great and have good conversations with my parents again.
Ironically, another reason I got into oxy was that I had to go to 20 narcotics anonymous meetings to satisfy the courts about a stupid marijuana ticket. NA wasn't for me; I wasn't hooked on anything at the time, and the whole thing was boring, inapplicable, and offensive to me. (No disrespect to the good people who've helped and been helped by NA - I recognize its value to many people, but it's definitely got its flaws and should never be forced on anyone). Anyway, my solution was to be nodded out on oxy's, which made the meetings 100x better.
Other than that, opiates helped me work and sleep more easily.
5. What kind of drug scene are you in?
College students so a lot of weed and liquor. Adderal to study, and psychedelics for they psychonauts. There's a junkie who lives in my building, but other than him, most people I know don't do a lot of opiates.
6. Also, what kind of administration do you use?
Oxycodone - up the nose, sometimes I'll smoke a portion of it too. Heroin - smoked. Others, usually as directed.
