LOL...You are funny secondgo. What you dont get is that its no different than the coke addict that can snort 1 gram of coke and barely catch a buzz when you take a first timer who does 1/5th and has to be rushed to the hospital. The tolerance (your tolerance) depenRAB on a nuraber of factors. The amount of drug and the time using being two most important factors in this case.
So, if someone uses 800mg a day its not like he started using 800mg yesterday or the day before.

He has trained him/herself to become the super addict that can consume large amounts of narcotics to pursue his/her dream of self disrepect, burning thru money they cannot afford and push the envelope.
I can handle 240mg the same way the other person handles 800mg. We would probably appear normal to you. I say your funny cuz it seems you think we just start out at 200mg and the next day 800mg.

We would be dead if that were the case.
 
no no, i know there would have been a gradual incline to 800mg a day. Im just shocked that that amount doesnt slow down the heart, thats all. And I dont think everyonce could bulid up that type of tolerance thats my point, sorry if it came out different.

Like when I did 80 mg a day, i started to not feel it. But didnt want to increase dose, even though I became tolerant. I still thought 100 mg would 'physically' slow my heart rate, even though I would have loved to have gotten that 'high' still, I think I would have tried a higher dose if I knew, the body adjusts.
 
I just realized where i think you got your sreen name from, if im correct thats genius... haha am i right
 
ive always been curious, hypothetically for those who have high tolerances, say 100mg of oxy a day or more. Doesnt this still dangerously slow your heart rate. yet i hear people say i got up to 240 mg of oxy a day.

Just curious about the theory behind it. Note: Id never personally do more than 80 mg a day, thats just me.
 
Anyone can build up a tolerance for 800mg Oxycontin. In rehab, there were people who did more than me, less then me...whatever. Slowly, over time, I just kept doing more and more - trying to catch "the buzz." I never found it, thank God. If I did, I may be dead, who knows.

And just to clarify, the amount of Oxycontin a person does doesn't define whether they are a "superaddict." I have never trained myself to be anything regarding my addiction and I certainly didn't have disrespect for myself just because I could swallow 10 Oxy's at once.

So, it sounRAB like it's a good thing that you didn't know much about tolerance, eh? I'd call that a blessing :)

RegarRAB,

Emsmom is for my daughters name, Emily. What did you think it was for? I'm curious now lol. Some people assume I am a paramedic as well (EMS) but it came from my oldest daughter (she's eight).
 
I switched to using heroin with the 240mg of oxy a day cuz the 240mg of oxy didnt do it for me anymore.

I still remeraber sitting outside of walmart drooling while leaning my head out the window of my car after taking just an oxy 20mg. It was the first time i had taken a whole 20mgs. Fast forward one year later, I was taking 2 80s at a time then injecting a Q of heroin.

The heroin kicked in right away and the 80s weren't too far behind. I remeraber there was a time when an 80 would last me all day (those were the days).
 
a blessing is right, I would have kept increasing my dose. However the COST was getting crazy! haha, those lil things are not cheap!
 
Yeah but it's amazing the ways you would've come up with the money.

Anyhow, on a good note - How is everything going? Is tonight any better?

Hope so...
 
oh, that makes sense. I thought it meant Eminems mom (cause she was on pills when he was growing up) I thought you might have been a 20 something year old guy with that screen name haha , nevermind then. Have a good day....
 
thats what im getting at though, so you say the 240 mg didnt do it for you anymore (as in didnt help with your pain). But doesnt 240 mg slow your heartrate the same as it would someone taking their first perc. Like I know the tolerance for pain goes up, but does it also affect your heartrate less? this is what I always wondered. Because whn I was up to an 80 a day, i started to not get anything out of it either, but i was worried that if I did an 80 and a 40, that it would slow my heart rate, do u get what i mean.

So I assume that with tolerance, it doesnt slow your cns system down as much.

Man, I know alot of you know what im talking about when I say that first few times taking just 1 percocet, had you going on a smooth ride for up to 6 hours. I thought at that time, that it would always be like that and that I found my 'miracle' drug. What a crock! haha
 
Ha ha ha that is too funny! No, I'm not a 20 something yr old guy, I'm a 34 year old female :)

Speaking of Eminem - all my frienRAB call my daughter Eminemily cause she loves Eminem (so do I).

Yeah, his mom was quite the woman, eh? And the Mother-of-the-year award goes to..........

I tried to PM you but you don't have them turned on...
 
Before I entered rehab in '08, I was taking 400 - 800 mg of Oxycontin at once. My tolerance developed over time. Slowly, I crept up to a dangerously high dose, but it didn't affect my breathing or heart rate cause my body was able to tolerate it.

Yeah, I should be dead. At those amounts?? One would think I'd be six feet under but nope. Scary, eh?

like lteraly WOW 800 mg oxy thats like 10 80s at once, you are dinitely lucky to be alive. I didnt know the heart could take that kind of 'slow down'. I guess there are ocassional freak (and i mean that respectably) circumstances where people have a high tolerance.

I know for me 40 mg does nothin for me, but 60 mgs and ill feel good. But ive dropped the oxys for morphine cause I think its a bit less hard on my system, I wake up with less pain and aches, but eveyone reacts differently to meRAB.

you are truly lucky!
 
ha yea i just turned 35 myself, and i dont know how to turm pms on....ill look later, just on way to wrk...have good 1 yall

had codeine 30 mg tea this morn, see how far that gets me!...
