Oof, woke up with a real bugger of a hangover. Rolled around in misery for a few hours before throwing on some clothes and drag-assing to the pharmacy to score some T1s and DXM. Lovely day, though... nice to get some fresh air. Been fasting in prep for the codeine. Ran a quick CWE, settled the stomach with some baking soda- just dosed up, waiting for the kick:
240mg Codeine
75mg DXM
450mg Caffeine
3 Shots of Rye
40mg Citalopram
Nicotine (vaped, 25mg/ml)
3 Bowls AAA+ Cannabis Indica
Texted my ex earlier... broke up two months and six days ago after six years together. Fucking sucks. Sucks, sucks, sucks. Ended very abruptly. Still getting over the trauma. Good to communicate a little, even if it hurts.
DRUG COMPLAINT:
I shouldn't complain, I know America fam can't even get T1s without Rx, but f u c k Canada's OTC codeine preparations suck bad dick. Tylenol 1s have a 2:1 caffeine/codeine ratio; really kills it, unless you have a big caff tolerance or coadmin. GABAergics. You get about 10min of feeling lovely before the caffeine hits and overwhelms the codeine.
Mersyndol is even worse... 5/8mg doxylamine/codeine. Doxylamine is more tolerable in overdose than diphenhydramine, but push it over 50mg and it starts feeling gnarly (harder to counteract than caffeine, too).
Really just fucking ruins it. Forces me to booze more, too, since I don't have a caff tolly. So hats off, feds, way to cut down on drug abuse.
What I wouldn't do to be able to order plain codeine+paracetamol from across the pond/the land down under....... sigh. Used to go to the trouble of recrystallizing the caffeine out of the CWE, back when you could buy AC&Cs (aspirin, codeine, caffeine). CANNOT for the life of me manage to make the process work with Tylenol... that aspirin solubility (or lack thereof) was a dream to work with.
EDIT grump grump grump I feel v caffeinated but basically sober; I miss hard opes.
