Tylenol, advil, ibuprofen etc dont do a damn thing for me.

Never taken anything stronger.

Drinking fucks me uo pretty fast when i haven't had any in a few weeks.  But i build up tolerance pretty fast.

I have a very low tolerance for opioids. Half a pill will do the job for pain
for me. Unfortunately for others it takes two or three pills. I had cancer removal pancreatic surgery last year. The doctor gave me 14 days worth of pain pills which is standard. I was off of them on day six.

i like it when people tell me that they're immune to oxys etc.

hey try taking a bunch and see how immune you are

write the DEA and say that the drugs don't have an effect on you, therefore they're no longer deserving of a schedule

Alcohol is good, but weed is the debil!

A single percoset or codeine will have me barfing in no time, and don’t do crap for pain.

Been given scrips for hydro and oxy, but they dont get filled, not even going to try it.

I have always been able to smoke socially and put them down whenever I wanted. I haven't smoked a cigarette in many years. In college I smoked quite a bit during certain times, like Spring Break. Same with caffeine. I used to drink coffee every day in college and barely drink it all anymore. The strongest opioid I've ever had is loratab, and the side effects are enough to completely remove any pleasure I might otherwise feel, so I guess maybe I don't like opioids much. Probably my biggest love is alcohol. I drank a ton of beer in college. But again, haven't had more than half a beer at any given time in years. I've grown to hate that feeling of being buzzed as I get older. I drank some really strong beer several years ago and got a little buzz on and was just like how was this ever fun.

My biggest high these days is getting shit done. I would rather do something productive than get messed up. If I accidentally get a buzz it just kind of annoys me because I don't feel like doing anything.

When I broke my ankle, I "discovered" 2 things, one bad, one sorta bad.
I discovered that my naturally high tolerance for pain has a very finite limit.
I also discovered that I am remarkably resistant to drugs.

In the ER, they gave me a shot of dilla-somethingorother and stood there like they expected me to go out or at least relax.  It made me feel warm and like I needed to piss, but my ankle still REALLY hurt.  The nurse was very shocked that the first dose did little, and the second dose (that, according to her would knock out an elephant) was barely sufficient.

After surgery, They had me on the max dosage of hydrocodone and then had to prescribe Tramadol to supplement.    The doc seemed to worry that he was going to have to taper me off both when we talked about it being time to quit, and was very surprised that I had quit both cold turkey a couple days prior with not much more than some chills and a flu-like feeling for a few hours.

I did ?? Me some alcohol though

It was actually  problem for me. Not to go into details but it would bring out a huge character flaw in me

In my case I have to have something really missing chemically in my brain.

Because just taking a 10mg gets me in a great mood all day, I'm a pleasantly person, I have the patience of a saint, I can stay on task, focus, etc

It also turned a 2.0 into a 4.0 in college

LoL congrats mr exception to the rule

IV Demerol is phenomenal for relieving my kidney stones.

All the opioids in the IV are too much

I hear ya

I have an issue with food, that's my vice

Can I ask how did you know you had an addiction to porn?

Funny that's sort of what happens to me butt I go from being reserved and quiet to the life of the party.

Our neurochemistry and unique DNA is what gives us our personality’s. It also makes us react radically different to drugs.

My wife is a redhead. Turns out her nerve endings ar sycle shaped. Not straight like every hair color. End result is her pain tolerance is fucking stupid. Also means beer is the only thing that works on her. If you want to do dental work you need to triple the dose of novocaine.

My uncle were pretty sure is bipolar and schizophrenic. He self medicates with cocaine. Also real credible evidence he’s a sociopath. With cocaine he’s kinda normal. When he’s smoking weed or drinking he’s a fucking nut.

Girl I knew tried mushrooms. She had some underlying issues and came back......damaged. She just wasn’t ready to face what was in that dark hole.

Me personally I just drink. Wine sometimes but usually beer. I don’t metabolize hard alcohol. I could drink whiskey the entire night and just get sick. Beer I actually get drunk. No desire for any harder drug. Also WILL NOT take melatonin. That shit is nightmare “fuck I need to institutionalize myself” fuel.

Caffeine is probably more addictive than crack mixed with heroin

Here a weird one. I recently got script for oxycodone (shoulder injury). I hadn’t taken Oxycoden in several years, but I remember that it used to make me drowsy. Now, it seems the shit keeps me awake all night. Go figure.

You have ADD.  Caffeine as a stimulant is one drug which helps treat ADD and the reason why many people go undiagnosed.

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.

Do you think that because you took opiates for a couple weeks as prescribed, and didnt become addicted, that you have some special resistance to addiction?

Its definitely humorous and you see it all the time:

"I hate those things they make me foggy"

"I broke my leg and was on oxy for a month, stopped no problem. I dont see how people can get addicted to that crap"



I used to party pretty hard in my early twenties and I can see how people get hooked. I was lucky to see where it led before it was too late. Had a lot of friends that didnt. I get the allure though. A shitty day can turn into the best day of your life with a couple pills. If you've never done it you cant even imagine

Benzo withdrawal
Some people, two weeks, some people 7 years.
worst drug ever made. fucking temporary brain damage fucking sucks. especially combined with other mental disorders.

Yea I've heard benzos and SSRs aren't to be toyed with. That shit is scary.

I've taken them longer for other pains
