djdabush Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I had morphine when I broke my hip but it must have been a fairly low dose as it didn't really have an effect. The moonster makes it sound so much fun too, apart from the lowering blood pressure and addiction bits of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shillzz Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 For those asking, you can get Valium by going to the doctor and saying that you're ridiculously scared of flying and have a flight coming up. My ex got a big batch when we went on holiday a few years ago, safe to say there was a little extra to go around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To give you an idea, at one point I was throwing up, and I was so spaced out on the morphine it didn't bother me at all, I just felt F-I-I-I-I-N-N-N-E. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted August 22, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted August 22, 2014 No, wouldn't have cared about that. No trippiness, no excitement, just extremely pleasant relaxation, like a warm glow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I was on Valium for 5 days to curb my anxiety briefly before I went onto daily anti-anxiety pills and it was so good. Never felt so chilled and mellow in my life. Did they put you on something stronger than Valium? I've taken Klonopin, and it's like a glass of red wine in a pill.

Xann Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Klonopin is clonazepam in the UK. It's mostly prescribed for reducing fits rather than controling anxiety here. Same family as diazepam (Valium). They don't give them out too easily, too addictive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supernova26 Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Most doctors will not prescribe Valium these days. It does the job for sure but is extremely addictive and the withdrawal symptoms are worse than crack cocaine , alcohol and nicotine combined. A very dangerous drug.

veloman Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Have you taken Tramadol then Trent ? How did it affect you ? What sort of dose and for how long ? I also was given 'em when I fell off my bike and broke my hip and wondered what other people's opinions of them were. Crash was 18 months ago , still can't jog or play squash but can ride/race on bike but lost stack of fitness. PS . Wondered whether to take 'em before races !!!!

chrisp65 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 we had a discussion about drinking here in the open plan office a couple of days ago I'd mentioned that if we open a bottle of wine on a Sunday we generally don't finish it and end up tipping the last of it away midweek. A few people expressed surprise that we wouldn't finish a bottle once it was opened. So in a loud flourish I announced: 'to be honest, by 2 on a Sunday I'm usually blasted off my tits on smack' one of the Directors was stood right behind me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Tramadol is a mind trip. I have some in my medicine cabinet for my back. I rarely use it. If I take the daily dosage, I end up with a migraine from Hell the next day. Kind of defeats the purpose. And it doesn't really do a whole lot for the back pain. But a few times when I've taken some and had nothing to do but sit around, I can feel a mild sort of high come on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 For anyone with back pain, I've found what works best for me is 400mg ibuprofen with 30mg cyclobenzaprine (muscle relaxant). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Any opiate is obviously addictive as hell. Sadly haha. Ugh the joys of strong painkiller withdrawl. I tried oxycodone for my back, horrible stuff. Had me spinning and totally spaced out. Ending up barfing it out of my system. I don't see how people could ever crave that stuff.
