Hello So I recently started taking Hydrocodone for recreational purposes and I was wondering how long does it usually take for tolerance to build up? For example I have been taking 10Mg's a night how long would it typically take until I will have to start taking 15Mg's to feel the same effects of 10Mg's? Sorry for rambling, Thanks for your help!
Accoding to how frequently you take them. At 10mg a day - a long time. Even when you do, with hydro about 40mg is the max buzz you'll ever get.
10mg a night is nothing. I would just watch out for addiction if you plan on messing around with opiates - in general.
Watch out man, it's a lot easier to just cut it out now than to go down this road. But back to your question. For me I remember my first ever dose my 15mg, after doing that a few days consecutively I wasn't getting the effect any more so I moved onto to 22.5mg and later 30mg. Then I got a bottle of 10mg oxys. At first took only 10mg then 20 and by the time the bottle was empty I was taking 100mg and I was basically getting the same effect I did from 20 when first starting out. Tolerance is a bitch. I'm mostly clean today but I still dabble, I'm just wiser than I was before.
Sorry I rambled a bit, to be more direct: If you just take 10mg/once daily you probably won't notice tolerance for a week or so but the last thing you want to do when you notice is tolerance is go higher. If you do notice tolerance or withdrawal for fucks sake stop for a week or two to let you tolerance go down.
That's solid. I agree, if you stop feeling enough, stop taking them until your tolerance goes back down, don't take more. One way lets you have a long life of fun, the other gives you a short life full of painful withdrawls and backstabbed friends.
I have been taking 2=3 a day for almost 10 years and still no tolerence. I never met anyone like me and have no explanation for it.
If your taking em every day you should start to notice a tolerance after a few weeks. Like everyone has already said its better to take a break than to increase the dose. Also Ddoright 40mg of hydrocodone is definitely not the saturation point, probably closer to 2 or 3 times that much.
does anyone have any opinions on weather it is more fun to sit around or get up and move while on them. i usually sit around and enjoy it but my friend likes to get up and move around, which do you prefer? and i figured that 40mg calculation was wrong cuz there are people that take 80mgs of Oxycotin which is stronger then hydro right?!
Right. Some people take 400+mg of oxy a day. As for what to do while your on it, it really doesnt matter. Its gonna make you feel good irregardless of whatever your doing.
That's not how it works. Oxy is stronger, and there's not much of a limit on how much you can take. Hydro is weaker, but there's still also a lower limit to how much will affect you. just supposing that cutoff was 40mg (not that it is) if you take 80mg, you won't really be much higher than at 40, assuming you have the tolerance to not come to physical harm Also, just by the way, if you go take an OC80 (or even like 30-40) you could pretty easily die, even with hydro tolerance. And you'll start killing your liver if you push hydro dosings that high anyway, you'll have to CWE.
Regarding the tolerance question I think it really depends on the persons body chemistry and mental makeup, as you can see from the other posters!!! Can't speak for myself, but my friend started with Vics and built up to 56 Bananas steady a week, but never had a "T" issue, that is untill they moved on to the GRANDADDY of BluBerries - OC80's- thats right skipped all the fun stuff in-between!!! Now due to hip issues and chronic back pain from 2 accidents, they're on 540 30mg BlueBerries/month & 30 80mg of BlueBerries/month, and yes they obviously have a major "T" issue now!!!
It is a slippery slope, take it from me. I started with Vikes 10 years ago, and not only will your tolerance rapidly build, but you will become more willing to experiment with other opiates once you realize Vicodin sucks in comparison to other opiates. I was taking 12 10mg Vikes at once 5 times a day at one point. I ended up snorting Oxy 80's, then eventually I hit the needle and shot heroin to see if it was as good as everyone said. It was. I am a firm believer that once your brain flips into addiction and you get that rush, you dont ever go back to normal, no matter how long you are clean. I have kicked opiates three or four times, and it never lasts. I for one can't stand reality, and the times I was clean I knew I would go back on them. I think everyone feels that way about them, it just is what it is. So if you want my advice, don't get too comfortable trying to "recreationally" pop Vicodin unless you are prepared to go all the way into opiate addiction, because I am pretty sure that is how it started for all of us. And none of us were prepared for addiction, but we are all on that boat now in one phase or another. It sounds like you are just starting out, it's a long road of peaks and valleys that almost always costs you more than you are willing to spend financially and emotionally, and yes its a fun ride but one that you pay for with alot of who you were that you dont get back.
^^^ he hit the nail on the damn head... I'm a pill head. I'm a fucking addict and sometimes I feel like the lowest form of shit that there is... Yeah, it all started with 10mgs here and there.
