Things that annoy you

Alright guys, so what things relating to opioids annoy you?

For me, I have a friend that calls hydrocodone "hydroCODIENE". I gave up on correcting.

I also hate when people tell me "I have/took 500mg of Vicodin!" ... No, you took 5mg of Vicodin and 500 of Tylenol...

 

oxycotton is always one that seems to come up when written and spoken

 

also sometimes prices seem to annoy me when people try and play fast ones, doesnt happen too much anymore.

 

it kind of bugs me when people spell codeine as codiene

 

and then it annoys me more to search google and see that codiene is correct

 

or it's just such a common misspelling that it's accepted :willy_nilly:

 

Lolz. I always get my I's and E's backwards. No matter what I'm spelling.

 

opioids.

 

^lol.................i never liked when my addict friend would fucking fall asleep in the middle of a sentence....or worse....carry on a whole conversation with his goddamned eyes closed

he deals oxy and always tells me about the wives that call him up and cry about how he shouldnt be supplying their husbands and how my buddy ruined their lives...he said he got at least a wife a week calling him

 

God, I could go on for awhile with this. This is a start. I will add more later!

- Thinking there is a real difference in the high between equivalent doses of Percocet and Roxicodone or OxyIR.

- People who don't even know basic information about opioid pharmacology yet are addicted.

- Crisping OxyContin OP and asking how to do it.

- People who can't seem to control their drug use and risk failing a Urinalysis test even if they are getting C-IIs scripted to them at a pain clinic!

- When doctors pretend like Suboxone is a new drug even though Buprenorphine and Naloxone have been around for 50-60 years...

- When people act surprised by very common opioid side effects because they didn't research.

- When people who have beat addiction have NO empathy for those who are struggling with it.

- When pill snorters think IV users are "below" them or "dirty".


I'll add more later. Trust me. I probably have 100 things.

 

You may not like the word, but it is the most accurate term and I prefer to say what I mean.

For those that don't know, all opiates are opioids but not all opioids are opiates. I'm sure etkearne can correct me if I'm wrong but opioids are all drugs that are agonists of the mu-opiate receptors in the brain while opiates are only the natural chemicals (and derivatives? Not sure) the came directly from the Poppy plant.

Which leads to another thing that annoys me: People that aren't knowledgable about what they are putting in their body.

 

The Controlled Substances Act, &c.

 

Opiate users come up with some of the dumbest slang terms for their drugs: sizzurp, cheese, krokodili

 

there's nothing wrong with the word.

you just asked me

regarding opioids

what annoys me :mickey:

 

An OPIATE is a psychoactive substance that acts as an agonist or partial agonist to the mu-opioid receptors that is found naturally in the Opium Poppy.

An OPIOID is the term used for any substance that is an agonist, partial agonist, or antagonist to any of the opioid receptors, be it mu, delta, kappa, or the newly discovered epsilon receptor. Thus, semi-synthetic (derived directly from an OPIATE), synthetic (derived in a lab from chemicals not found in the Poppy), or opiates themselves are all opioids. Even Naloxone, the opioid antidote, is technically an opioid since it antagonizes the mu-opioid receptor.

Now, also, it is common for some parts of the world to consider semi-synthetics that are easily obtained from opiate alkaloids, to be OPIATES. Thus, things like Hydrocodone, Heroin, 3,6- esters of Morphine, and even Buprenorphine (a Bently compound derivative from theibine) could be called opiates by some people.

And, for the user who

 

Ya but i sure love it when those people in the first example are back to being on your couch withdrawling and when the ones in example two are shootin up on the way back from the hood everyday. Well I dont really love it, but its happens all the time.

 

actually to be honest, opiate addiction is hilarious, and opiate addicts are hilarious too. The same process will always happen, and it sure is recorded what does actually happen, yet for some reason the stubborn mother fucker has to see for himself. Great substances they are, a true blessing but they are very addictive, spoken from a ex junky.

 

that you can think ....
