Heroin does not make one agitated crazed as the original post said here which I replied to
It makes one euphoric and in higher doses pretty darn sleepy
It and all the opioids have a quite similar effect
The only agitated state from heroin is when a junkie can’t get it
Unlike you and the good doctor I have consumed heroin and most of the opioids in my long life ranging from medical care to recreational use
I am admittedly unfamiliar with the newer opioids and derivatives like OxyContin and Opana etc
The notion one takes heroin and goes banshee is poppycock
Many folks here have the heartfelt notions about what drugs do but they’ve never taken
Particularly about marijuana
This disinformation about opioids making one crazed is one reason many folks in serious pain have a hard time getting relief and have to jump through many hoops
Let me be really precise
Heroin or morphine or dilaudid in drug abuse dosage knock your ass out plain and simple unless you are extremely tolerant
If you are addicted you’ll be chasing a nod and trying to keep the sickness of withdrawal away
Withdrawal btw is crazed no question
Highly agitated
Here’s a public example
Rush whom I adore took by his admission very high levels of oxycodone.,,, for his neck..,,,20-30 times what I would take of Percocet 10mg
Did he seem crazed then to you
He didn’t to me.,,,in fact he was very witty and self deprecating even if high
Heroin is a 10 on pain management...used in England
Percocet is a solid 8 in moderate dosage
At his level it might as well have been heroin
That’s my personal experience
If you have any knowledge whereby you’ve taken the drug please share
Otherwise I’ll stick with my own firsthand knowledge
So sound off
I’ll let you have last word
It’s just easier
So try to stay on topic
No strawman and no ad hominum
One thing I forgot that opioids do to the unaccustomed
Vomit
Very common for weak stomachs
Not sure why
I’ve had two open hearts
While they dosing me up in post surgery blue light pods they also administered promethazine
Which is an antihistamine with great anti emetic capabilities
But makes one very drowsy
With my experience of opioids I will add to my knowledge by declaring personally I think pain relief wise dilaudid beats heroin
And then there’s toradol which I get 12 injections every two months in my neck
But no dope effect although very effective for certain pains
I also get steroids injected same way in my neck alternating months
And it’s the best
I’m not making this stuff up
My body is wracked like Nick Nolte is North Dallas Forty
All this makes it manageable
