I hear ya man.. Im stuck in the same cycle. Dont expect any sympathy or understanding on this forum. I have never tried methadone but I have tried suboxone. you can find a doctor in your area. Call around and find the cheapest one. I paid my doc $200/ month and all he did was write a suboxone script, no questions asked. I was using about the same amount of oxy (about 80 mg a day) and your right the mental withdraw sucks. Cant concentrate or get work done or sleep. I really like the suboxone. i was motivated and even got a nice 12 hour buzz from it. Find a doc here... http://www.suboxone.com/patients/resources/find_a_doctor.aspx
Wow, forgive me for not being sympathetic to people who know the consequences of opiates. Give me a break, and fuck off. I deal with opiates, wd's, AND PAIN every fucking day. So don't try to talk shit about people not caring on this forum. I gave him useful information, and the truth. I am sorry I didn't use lube and slide it into his asshole slowly like you would have liked. I already recommended Suboxone, but good try.
I don't even think the OP knows what He or she is talking about so they plenty of advice from plenty of opiate addicts... Now when they find out what the hell they are tlaking about themselves, they can decide to take our advice or not.
Aw you big bad addict....dosing 10x more than everyone else... that doesnt make your problems anymore real or special than the guy who is just starting his path to addiction... Dont fucking tell him to stop if he enjoys it, if he has decided he wants to keep using then fucking help him out or dont say shit at all. Im not trying to one up your ass or steal your "advice". I can relate to this guy. I have been in his shoes. I told him what I did and what path I decided to take when I reached this decision.
i agree man, from your post it sounds best to just up and quit, but if you do insist to play with opiates have you considered poppy pod tea? me and a bud (its gonna be a surprise who) are working up a mad tek for you all
Hey China, now that you still haven't left yet.. Kilo is here, I'm here, U4ia is back and whoever else was in on it..... We need to restart our opiate Party planning!!!!
Did I say anything about being big or bad for dosing more then others? I have a chronic pain issue that has left me on prescribed opiates for 4 years so far. Who said my problems were worse or more real? You wanted to make a comment about people not being sympathetic. I don't feel sorry for myself, and I don't feel that anyone else should be. Unfortunately, most of you take opiates for recreational purposes, and then want to complain about WD"s....and I don't agree with it. If you take opiates, you know that they come with a serious mental, and even worse, physical addiction. If you don't know that, you shouldn't be doing them in the first place. I never said you were trying to "1 up" me. I have been in this guys shoes, NOT BY CHOICE. I am simply stating that there is no reason to give a shitload of sympathy to someone who knew the consequences...and if I sound like an asshole for saying that, so be it. On top of all this, I suggested Suboxone as well...so why would you pick apart my post when I suggested the same thing you did, before you suggested it? I still stand by my original opinion that if after 5 years of doing opiates...you still only do 20-30mg of Methadone, and 80mg of OC, that you don't need to change to something to get you off. At that low of a dose, you can get yourself off easier, and save money in the process. I just don't think at that dose you need to be on Suboxone or in MMT.
Listen babe, I'm nothing if not sympathetic to people going through WD. Believe me. But when you're in a forum filled with people, some of whom are in constant chronic pain (like myself) who run out of their shit early for whatever reason and go through REALLY BAD WD's, and then some (possible) troll wanders in and starts asking convoluted questions with dosages that just make no sense, then no, there isn't going to be a lot of sympathy. I am in pain 24/7. Yes, I like my opies and yes, I would probably taek em even if I weren't in pain. But the shit I have to go through with my asshead pain doc every month, givng me 5 mg percs and FUCKING NEURONTIN to treat nerve root pain ("just to see if it works, come back in 2 weeks") makes me want to punch people in the neck when they whinge about running out of recreational low doses of pills. Especially when they can't make up their mind what or how much they were taking. My advice? If you can afford to buy that kind of shit on the street, you can afford a suboxone doc. It's better than the clinic and you're clearly not having fun anyway. Suck it up, make the appointment (most take you the same day, they're THAT GREEDY) and go to work and get on with your life. I'd rather be dealing with my bupe doc again than with the pain doc.
you said it all dilly. like you, i am in pain 24/7 as well (well more so discomfort now that im on painkillers..but still) some people just don't know how lucky they are..
Also, I've been treated with nothing but respect since I came here a week ago. Then again, that's because I'm a pretty girl. ROFLMMFAO!
Yeah. I know. I have an appointment for an epidural injection on Friday with the Asshead Pain Doctor, who thinks you should take ONE 5/325 percocet every 12 hours for excruciating back pain, because he gives you Neurontin and flexeril to go with it. I need to find a new doc but my PCP doesn't like referring out of network. Pain in the ass.
Fuck Dilly, that sucks. I would just tell him the way it is, If he dosen't up your dose tell him your going elseware. I'm surprised how many people think they have to stick with the doctor they have. All you have to do is stand up to your family doc. and get a referral. Its simpler than you think.. If you have to go out of network call your insurance and tell them your not getting prpoer care and they will pay for it. Pretty easy, You just have to do it..
Yeah - I'm going to tell him on Friday. The first time I went to him I told him I was on dilaudid and he made some remark about ER's putting people on heavy duty pain meds and he wrote me the percs. I called him the other day and he told me to come in Friday, so I'm just gonna tell him straight up, the percs DO NOT EFFING WORK, ASSHEAD. But nicer.
Yeah cuzz Neurontin is such an awesome drug. I was on it for 2 months without any relief. I hate it when doctors will do anything in their power not to prescribe opiates for pain. Including prescibing drugs with way worse side effect profiles that aren't even really indicated for pain. They would rather see you have a heart attack from taking Amitriptyline than give you something that actually works. Pisses me off.
Right on dilly, tell that asshead straight up..LOL Then go tear up the shrink next.LOL I'm going to see my family doc next week, and I'm going to tell him that 3 yrs ago I use to be on celexa and zanax. But I'm only going to tell him I was only on 15 zanax a month as needed. and see if he will give them to me. What do you guys think. Cause I really need some zanax, like really fucking bad man. I think I'm going crazy and shit.. Do ya all think it will work.
