I am a connoisseur of opiates. I have had a soft-core addiction to hydrocodone, tramadol, and oxycodone and used them intermittently through my addictions of other opiates. I have had a hardcore addiction to morphine, heroin, poppy pods, and, most recently, buprenorphine. I never liked methadone very much, but I’ve only tried it after I had grown a massive tolerance. Out of this genre of addiction I would like to discuss my views on both sides of the opiate coin.
Opiates are the one drug that called to my personality. They never fully intoxicated me to the point of acting like an imbecile; on the contrary, they made me feel more socially tuned to my friends and produced a more casual environment for conversation, though in the addiction phase I’m sure my friends would argue this point. My first experience with opiates was of a magical nature, much like an MDMA experience, but it felt less forced and more laid back. My favorite opiate was morphine via plugging. I was on nods that were champions compared to sex.
After using opiates for a few days the user will inevitably find a certain loss in magic, so logically some people quit using and save it for a time when it will work, but as my use progressed I became less and less structured about my use. Slowly but surely I became conditioned to the idea that just taking a pill would solve any ill effects of life. When I was deep into addiction, I’d say this was around my poppy pod stage, I started noticing a steep decline in my mental condition. I felt shitty for three quarters of the day and good for about the six hours in the morning when I would take my first dose (subsequent doses usually failed at making me feel good).
During this part of my addiction a friend lured me onto a miracle drug of suboxone, and it was a breath of fresh air. . . at first.
it was a breath of fresh air. . . at first.
Bupe may seem like a miracle drug at first, but in the long run I still hit the hump, and it was a much longer one.
