General Thoughts on Fent and College

[Chemical_Boy]

1) Suckers with fent- good
2) Migraines- bad
3) Fent suckers for migraines- very good
2) College after 10 years of no college- bad
3) Suckers with fent to help with college coursework- good
4) Running out of presaid suckers- very bad
5) Appointments to get more suckers- good
6) Coursework with no suckers- bad

Sucks going back to school when you have not done so for 10 years. I forgot how much it cuts into your life. I work a good 40 or 50 hour week and one class is kicking my ass. It is conforting to know that I only have about 8 more years of this crap to get a bachelors. These suckers work great for two things- migraines, which is what I use them for. And, then, when the migraine is gone, they provide that nice opie-induced motivation that good opies give me. I am backwards when it comes to drugs and motivation. Coke or crystal make me park my ass on a sofa for 10 hours with no chance of getting up, while opies get me going. It wasn't always like that. I used to get amped on stimulants and mellow on downers, but one day- I guess I did too much meth- and after that I lost any sort of motivation that shit would give. Anyway, that is beside the point. I am sitting here wondering how the fuck poeple can find the motivation to work full time and go to school- especially if they are taking more than one class. I am good right now, because I am sucking on a fent pop, but after this I only have one left and it is a whole month until I get back in to see my pain doc. When he prescribed these to me, I think he thought I was still getting norcos from my regular doctor, but I had her hold off the last time I saw her because she wanted to do a contract and I told her that I was going to have this new doc do the medication management. Next time I see my pain doc (Hurry up december!!!!!!!!) I will be sure to let him know that I am not getting any medication but what he prescribes. Shit this is going to be a long month!! Off track again. . . School sucks!! Fellow students/full-time workers, how do you do it???

I can relate to you. Since doing opiates, I've zero motivation and zero interest in any things. For some reason opies just make me really motivated and focused on what I'm doing. I'll even occasionally use to clean my apartment. I know that's weird. The trouble of course is when you're off of them, you're so amotivational and so bored to death that you can't functionn. Hence the neverending cycle. For me, the last two years of college were the hardest. I basically didn't care my junior year and got B's when I should have gotten A's. My senior year, I basically lived on coffee and nicoteine, and about once a month would just take a break for a few days and reward myself with a good nod or two. You just basically have to make yourself do it, unless you've got a neverending supply, which I never did. Just try hard and give yourself a lot of little rewards. That's the only thing that worked for me, that and the fact that graduation meant I'd never have to put up with some of the bullshit that I had to go through at college (i.e., frats and their stuipidity--no offence to frat memembers here). Where I went to school there were only like 1400 students, and almost 70% were greek, so it was hard to find things to do and other people to associate with, especially since everyone thought alcohol was the greatest drug ever known to man. I can't stand alcohol. Make good use of the campus doctors / student health centre. They'll usually supply some opies, hydrocodone for headaches / wisdom teeth, and they'll almost always give you a narcotic cough syrup if you say you've got a bad cough and can't sleep at night and can't miss anymore classes. Just don't go too often. I know it's not fent, but it would help somewhat.

Are pods an option? With regards to school, I can't comment. I've blacked that whole period out Best of luck to you.

Opies make mee good and motivated too. Luckily, I am not in a cycle of total physical dependence right now (knock on wood- I have been there before) so it's not that I completely lose motivation when I don't have any. They just help out, you know? I guess going to the campus doc would be ok, but I am not "away at school". I live in my house, work full time, and just take one class right now. It's just that taking care of my house and yard, working a high-stress job, and now this damn school again (I am pushing 30 and haven't been to college since 1998) is taking it out of me. I got into a PM doc, so meds won't be a problem once I am "fully establishhed" So far I have only been once. I guess I am just needing to vent and whine a little bit. What it really comes down to is I have a shitload of respect for anyone with enough motivation/ self-control to get a degree in anything. Especially if they were working or taking care of kids or both while doing it.

I would like to try pods, but I am kind of sketched about ordering stuff like that off of the net. Also, until I am scripted morphine or something, pods could get me fired if I get tested at work, which is a very real possibility. I do have to admit, though, pods sound like the shit! I am all about long lasting, functional buzz. I am jealous of all who get to partake in the pods!!

Fent is the truth. Plain and simple.

Chem- I feel ya- I sell cars (hate me now...) it's a very self-starting job. If I'm on subs, I can't be bothered to get off my ass and talk to the customers. When I'm on oxy, I'll sell 2 cars in a day (a very good thing). It's like I need the oc's to excell at my job, but in the end the oc's are fucking up my life. I could have bought a fuckin brand new Porsche 911 with the money I've spent on OC's and dope in the past 2 years. Catch-22. But, tomorrow is my day off, and I'm stocked up, flush with cash. So, fuck it, I'll worry about it later. Good luck, bro.

Hey Levity, I could probably help you with iambic pentameter or other meters for that matter. PM me if you've got a question. I studied a lot of Latin and Greek poetry, which I know you'd think would be different, but they're both very metrical / tonal languages, and all of their poetry is based on metrics.

[geanine.aurora]

Hey Chem Boy- Congrats on being back in school. I did that one myself and found that the initial class or two were the most difficult just because I wasn't in that groove. After that it just kind of flows. I promise it'll get easier. The pace, the expectations, your timing.
One suggestion with your new PM doctor. I know you only saw them one time, but you could call and tell them that you wanted them to know that you have stopped getting your other meds from your other doctors and that you're suffering. You could have them call in some Lortab 10s or something.

[Chemical_Boy]

Yeah, I thought about that. I don't want to push too hard though. I have done that in the past and foound that when I hurry things they seem to go wrong. I have lived this long, I can live a little longer. . . Plus I am pretty sure that things will work out well next month and I won't have to worry.

[geanine.aurora]

I know it sounds crazy but I have felt stronger being able to go without for periods and know I'm okay. I'm still in pain and my pain is real. I guess with my history of addiction I really doubt myself alot. When i have pain I have to question myself. Is it real do I just want opiates, etc. Once I ignored something super serious because I doubted my pain so much. It's a tricky situation when you're an addict and you have pain issues. I recently started taking Lyrica and I suspect that it has greatly eased my discomfort when I use up my meds too quickly. It is a weird and new form of Neurontin.

never worry when u dont have to

[insaneike]

The shit will put you in a proper opiate induced nod hehe

My doc took me off it one month(fentanyl transdermal patches) cause it was making me wanna do mroe than I should. Was right after a major back surgery(that went bad btw) and the fent was making me feel so damn good I was thinking I could walk and lift more than I really should have hehe. So he took me off the Fent/Morph combo for 2 weeks till I said I'd control the urge to do move around/do stuff in general :P as for 2 weeks he had me on JUST morphine and that shit was not working for me, sadly.

and the damn suckers just made me sleepy(when I do a dose that si effective). No way would they be ideal for common everyday stuff in public for me, as when i take a large enough for it to really hit me and releive my pain(dunno what you use it for tho, recreation or pain...) it just makes me ultra sedated, like I'm ready fr surgery lol. BUt trasndermal fent isn't like that AS BAD, but kinda(smoke it ;P).

So I dunno, I done forgot what you was wanting to know lol(thanks alot fent/oxy/done)

later

EDIT:: Oh, I have pretty fkn bad migraines from time to time(like once every 1.5months) and god... I know what you mean, that shit is sooooo bad. Like, NOTHING helps... The only thing that I find that even hepls a LITTLE, is take enough shit to knock you out. Seriosuly, no joke. If you have one the really REALLY severe migraine theres not much that will help it cept putting yourself out of it. and personaly, opis don't help my headaches at all. I dunno, it actualy kinda makes it worse(depending on dose actualy). What I find works best is a mild dose of opis, 6-800mg buprofen, and a pretty damn good dose of benzos(I use xanax) and alot of water and a strait dark, silent room with your chosen one petting you to sleep(hey, it helps)... I feel for anyone who feels these damn things(i think u mentioned u have them lol)...

Yeah, they (migraines) can be hard to beat into submission. Opies alone aren't all that effective, although they beat the shit out of NSAIDs and APAP for me. What I usually do is give my self a shot of DHE45 (dihydroergotamine) or a spray of zomig in the nose, and then a narcotic. Also, long acting narcs work fairly well for prevention, but I am not big on the side effects (can't shit, don't wanna fuck, etc). The fent suckers are not bad, but I have to eat 3 at a time to get decent relief- keep in mind that these are only the 400 mcg lollies. I did find that the 3 sucker dose also gives me that nice, warm, energetic buzz and I start cleaning and having a good time after the damn headache is mellowed out a bit.
Ike, I have noticed that you seem to have an affinity for fent (an affentity?) You got any recommendations to get a better effect out of these? Three at a time is OK, but it will burn through my monthly allotment like crazy. I saw some threads on Bluelight about people shooting these, but it kind of seems like a bad idea to me unless there is some sort of method that gets out all of the syrupy, sugary, binder stuff. Plus, I haven't used the needle for quite a while with opies and I am not sure that I would like to go that road again. I did dissolve a chunk in some water to see what would happen and it made this weird film on top of the water, but otherwise dissolved fairly well. I have never plugged anything, so I don't know how that would effect it (I do get a mental picture of jamming a sucker up your ass, and it kind of makes me laugh. What would a suitable dose of IV fent be for someone who doesn't have a huge tolerance, but has no problems at all with 1200mcgs of oral fent? (not that I am going to try banging these, I am just trying to get a subjective comparison of oral to IV fent)

[Vanishing Boy]

Damn I need to take advantage of this migraine situation I have. No meds, stress from 40 hours+ of work and 9 hours of college a week. I used to buy peoples hydros just for rainy day migraines, now i'm kind of all alone. I wonder what seeing a pain doctor entails. I mean are they going to just say well change your lifestyle or slap some nice meds on me? I would be afaraid to ask for oxy's cause to me that would be a dead give away. Can't say I've even gotten to try them. $1 per/mg street seems not worth it to me. I'll pay $15 for 60 mg MS contins when they're around and $10 If I'm lucky. which has been a total of 4 times now. It's tough to find things through the streets. My friends would snatch them before me anyways.

I think less than 10 times makes me just past a virgin actually...

1 IV included on that

[RobOC]

I feel ya chem. Without opies school sucks. I can do it, but I perform much better and actually have fun doing it if i am on opiates. They are like the ultimate ADD drug for me.

You have a very small chance of getting opioid medicine for your haedaches until you go through trails with many different medicines and therapies. You may get lucky and get a small-count script of hydrocodone, but even that is dicey. I have been going to the doctor for years trying to find a solution to these damn headaches. I have tried hundreds (literally) of medicines, everything from acupuncture to nerve blocks (all unsuccessully), and spent 10s of thousands of dollars on treatment before receiving strong pain medicine. It has taken years.

I definitely wish you luck! They can be debilitating. You will most likely start of with NSAIDs and migraine medicine like Immitrex or Relpax. These work better than opioids for some people and maybe you will be able to find relief with these. Chances are if you ask for something like oxycodone, you will loose any chance of getting it. In my experience, until you have a large medical history to back up what you ask for, you need to let the doctors come to their own conclusions and basically throw yourself at their mercy. There are a lot of doctors out there that just flat won't treat migraines with opioids. And the ones who will are usually dubious about it.

Again, good luck!
