Grog when you start meeting people you don't know, tearing apart your car because you think you had one in there, picking up your bed to look underneath, looking in all your pockets in the closet, getting stomach problems and shitting your pants - is when it really loses its appeal.:howdy:

I never met people I didn't know....but I remember the frantic feeling...looking everywhere...horrible. ...it's a feeling of panic/anxiety...and it may not because you want to get high...it's just to prevent the withdrawal symptoms...(at least with me)...this physical addiction will happen to ANYONE who uses narcotics at a high level regardless of whether it's legitimate use or not.

5 months is really not that long...I would suggest getting out while you can....listen to those who know.

"They" say that prescription drug abuse is one of the fastest growing addictions among the young. ...I believe it... the kids at work are always asking around for percs, vics, oxys...even adderall etc....scary.

had a friend OD in my house on a mix of opana and ketamine. scariest thing I have ever witnessed. he didn't even take a lot. just make sure you are careful, and NEVER EVER mix drugs

w/d is the worst. 7 days of hell. almost impossible to kick on your own because you will feel so bad and want it to start you will go and get high. Best bet is to get suboxene. you won't have any w/d's and will help with the cravings. if you can't get a hold of that, rehab may be the only hope. the only thing with that is it is permanently in your medical records so when you are 60 and have a hip replacement you won't get anything for the pain


I get 240 10 mg percs every month for back pain and I was on the orangies for 2 years...if you really need pain medication you will still get it. .I was very upfront with all my doctors too. The only problem is that when I first herniated that disc, the pain meds wouldn't work til I got off the suboxone...THAT sucked.

ya if you are doing like 4 or 5 perc 10's a day you can kick it no problem, once you start getting into over an OC 80 a day you are looking for trouble.

I don't know what this means.

After taking your first Suboxone your head clears out and you feel like your in a concert hall. I guess its all the receptors cleaning out.

I usually take 20 mg of methadone and 15 mg of oxycodone or hydrocodone as one dose. I take them about 4 times a day. I got a good deal on the methadone so that's why that's in the cocktail.

I get the pills from craigslist and have been cheated or nearly cheated a number of times. I'm embarassed to say that I met one guy who got in my car and actually robbed me at gunpoint ($400).

Kinda helps you with your moments of clarity ;)

I'm more careful now but I'm thinking strongly of trying the subaxone recommended here. I don't know whether my MD will prescribe. . .

Probably not. Only certain docs can prescribe suboxone. They have to go thru certain training...there is a website... www.suboxone.com for more information. Doesn't sound like you are ready to quit. But if you are getting robbed at gunpoint due to your habit...well, jmo but it's time to think about quitting. I really didn't want to quit either...I really had had no bad experiences...like I said I was fully functional....but the tolerance issue, supply anxiety and the $1600 per month was a bit much. Once I made the decision, I made and appointment, got the sub and never looked back...but I did go down kind of kicking and screaming. I really didn't want to quit... I just knew I had to. It was one of the best decisions of my life. Who is to say where I would be if I hadn't made that choice. Now being back on the pills for legitimate reason, it's really not the same. But if I can ever get off them, I will definitely do the sub thing again.

Everyone said it, suboxen is the way to go. If you know a lot of people that get perks for ya, im sure someone can come up with some Subs. Action Girl is right, you need a special liscense to prescribe em, some with Methadone... If you have a family doctor that your close with, he might do it for ya, ive seen that before, but you obviously have to be close with him.
Perks are great, they were the best high i would have, and u didnt get a hangover the next day. I functioned on em... But after a few years, and when you need to have these things to do Anything, good or bad, hit off a girl, drink, not drink, sleep, wake up,,, and you will because the tolerance builds, its garbage.
Be careful with the Subs, the withdrawl from them can be worse then Perks if you take them for a long time and dont get off them the right way. Put em on your tongue, let em melt in, you wont feel the high of a perk, but your legs will feel normal, and trust me, you will soon come to understand what people mean about the legs.... I suggest getting a place by yourself for a week, a couple hours away, work from there, avoid your girl if you have one and she doesnt know, start with the subs, and lower your dose every few days... Good luck

Most importantly: If you dont listen or want to stop now... At least when you get a chance to get Subs, or Methadone if you dont run into Subs, grab em, even if your not quitting for a while. It would suck to decide you really need to stop and it takes ya 2 or 3 months to get something to help ya out. Trust me on that one..... GL

You're talking to someone that was taking a tombstone of Xanax a day and 2.5 the dose of Halcion that Dahmer was giving his victims (at night) - mixed in with a couple of drinks - yeah, sleeping was like lala land - if you want to stop it's really simple - you need to take a little less than your taking every other day - just keep lowering the dose - eventually you will be off and your body will not feel anything - if you like that feeling and don't want to quit - well that's a different story

hahahaha. I knew what you meant....there are also some good forums out there for people in your same situation...some quitting...some wanting to quit but won't....some using not quitting...

I've never used coke or anything I considered "hard" drugs but the physical and mental addiction of prescription pills is a hard thing to beat.I quit once before the suboxone cold turkey... It sucked but it was doable...took about a week to feel physically ok and a few weeks to feel mentally ok...but I always had the mental craving....that's why the second (and last) time I quit, I used sub...

Some people get on and off the sub in a month or so....but usually they are still craving and miserable after that. You are probably ok if you quit pretty soon but after years go by, you would probably need to be a long time sub user...btw, they taste like baby asprin.

Craigslist sells pills? Whaaaa? That's nuts. What do people put in the add??

Percs - $5 each on sale for Xmas?

If thats true thats nuts.

If you want to see what the leg thing is watch the movie 'Candy'. I could handle throwing up... toilet stops... but the ants crawling on your bones and leg shit is the worst feeling you can have.

I hear some stories about people quitting cold turkey and say they just go sauna and work out. Huh, good on them.

Speaking of Xanax = Devils Drug.

Getting off Xanax is the biggest MIND FCUK in the world. You can actually seiz up... You be walking around in brain fog for days and weeks if you first don't have a seizure.

Xanax is some bad shit.
