Yeah don't do this, one of the many pain meds I've been prescribed, it's very addictive and while the high is really good (imo), you'll be blurting out all your secrets faster than you can say them
Yeah, that also goes for oxy, tilidin and opium. Opioids are more than anything else in my "not more than once or twice a year" category, and i'd say that there's a lot of people who just can't keep usage that low. I don't mean these lists as "do these drugs, don't do these drugs", there's a ton of potentially nasty stuff on there.
I literally require such strong painkillers to operate daily. I remember switching to a new medication and not feeling sober for 2 whole weeks before the tolerance built up. Also winding down dosages is extremely hard, but necessary to prevent addiction if you're not in a lot of pain. It's so easy to just be like "I felt my shoulder twitch slightly, time to pop another pill". But I have to wind down the dosage so I don't end up with a drug addiction if/when my treatment works.
I'm sorry to hear that. I actually feel a bit bad now talking largely about recreational use. But yeah, i know what you mean with the twitchy shoulder thing. It's scary how the brain makes that connection between pain and drug.
Yeah it's scary, I accidentally outed myself as bi (I'm closeted irl) to a healthcare worker once while on the medication. I was so glad they weren't homophobic or anything, most people are where I live. I really hope there's a future where I'm pain free and don't have to be on this shit permanently, it was cool at first but now I just want to be "sober" if that makes sense
That makes perfect sense, and i get what you mean with the impulsive stuff, too. Sometimes there's just nothing you're afraid of anymore and ... that's not always a good thing. Hope there's something that helps you to be pain free one day!

Yeah it just removes all fear of consequences, really dangerous when you're around certain people
