Hydrocodone getting high
Common Questions and Answers about Hydrocodone getting high
vicodin
Well, went to the Dr. and she has put me on extra b/p meds along with what I've already been prescribed. It was very high when I went in. She is concerned about my potassium levels and electrolytes. I have very little energy if any. I told her just exactly how I felt and I double dared her to even mention to me about getting back on Hydrocodone. She didn't, she actually said "I'm proud of you, good job. It won't be but maybe another week and you'll feel better!
Been taking 5-6 5 mg hydro a day due to a disc protusion, really want to get off of them and am taking them for the high not the pain as there isn't any...messed up...
m so dizzy I can hardly walk without staggering. Has getting off this hydrocodone doing this to me? When will this end?
Ive used hydrocodone twice, and Im already addicted to it, is it normal to get addicted that fast?
I took hydrocodone 10/325 at 8 - 10 a day for 5 years and hydrocodone 5/500 at 6-8 a day for 4 years before that so I was on a fairly high dose, not as high as many people on here, but it was high enough to get my body dependant on them. It is for you to decide if you think you will have the mind set of taking them as prescribed if you truly NEED them. If you can't take them like that and still need them, do as Meeg said and have someone dole them out to you.
so tonight I got an e-mail from him and he said that it was suggested that I use oxycodone because it has no tylenol in it and it is a little stronger than the hydrocodone...and then after the first week, I can taper back over to the lortab...so my question is, how similar are these meds? I mean will I do through withdrawls on this...I know it is an opiate but I just dont understand how this works. I have only been on Lortab for a year and honestly it was by accident that this even happened...
I had a minor surgery 2 weeks ago and have been using 40 to 50 mg of hydrocodone the entire time. I am wondering if I will have withdrawal symptoms, if I should try to taper off, or if it's ok to just stop immediately. I have heard that withdrawal is very painful and I am nervous.
no, sorry
It would take months to lower your tolerence a little.
I take 20 - 30 10/325mg hydrocodone pills a day. I need to stop but don't know HOW. Tapering is very difficult and I get very sick when I stop cold turkey. Any advice??
Is there a "high" you get from them?? I have taken Tramadol before and Hydrocodone and I just don't see why you would want to take Tramadol unless you are taking like 5 or 6 at a time....
how long does hydrocodone stay in your system been takin about 6-7 a day for 8-9 months?
I use it even though at the end of the day it makes me feel BAD, no high, just bad. And, no one knows about it. I have not told anyone. I dont go to recovery meetings because Im in the helping profession, even tho thats a lame excuse. I feel a lot of shame about it. I am coming to the end of the meds I have and cannot get more for awhile, and will withdraw. So, Im starting to taper myself. I know I can be so much more than this....I also know addiction is an illness.
TRAMADOL IS VERY VERY ADDICTIVE! I USED TO TAKE VICODIN THEN THEY CHANGED ME TO TRAMADOL AND I HAVE BEEN ADDICTED OVER 10 YRS NOW. TRAMADOL IS NOT A NARCOTIC SO IT IS PRESCRIBED LIKE CANDY BUT IT IS VERY ADDICTIVE! SAVE YOURSELF THE MISERY PLEASE! AND YES TRAMADOL GIVES YOU A HIGH JUST LIKE VICODIN BUT MUCH LONGER. BUT U WILL HAVE TO TAKE MUCH MORE TO KEEP GETTING HIGH WHICH IS DEADLY! JUST DO NOT TAKE IT!!!! DR's DO NOT KNOW IT ALL!
i'm a 50 yr old Male....i was addicted to Hydrocodone for about 3-1/2 years...It got to the point of taking 10 pills 10/5 hydro/acte a day. (which i found out later was nothing compared to what other people take). it got to the point that i needed 2 before i took a shower in the morning. i was hating myself and i didnt know what to do.I wasnt craving that "High" i was getting from the Hydrocodone, i Just needed it to feel normal....
I am 22 as of last week. My mother is almost 60 and she has a real bad back and knees. She has been taking hydrocodone for as long as I can remember. Well, when I turned 13 I got into smoking marijuana. Still do to this day. And I think it is what opened me up to the other drugs I have done. Anyways, when I was around 16, I had real bad mestrual pain and my mom offered me one of her pain killers. Bad mistake. The first time I took it, I got sick because I didn't eat.
And yes, it will be worse, there are many more horror stories about tram than hydrocodone. I had a doctor try to take me off of hydrocodone by giving me tramadol a few years ago when I was stopping meds after a surgery, and the withdrawals were terrible. I didn't know much about withdrawals or drugs then and I never abused them, but nonetheless it was AWFUL I HATE tramadol with a passion. Big mistake.
Your friend is playing with fire. Why risk addiction at 17 or at any age for that matter? Especially is they are taken for getting high and not for pain. He may not think he will get addicted but more than likely he will. Once or twice a week is very easy to turn into every day especially when the w/d's kick in on his days "off".
Please be careful!
i have been with my boyfriend for a little over 8 months now and he is addicted to hydrocodone. when we have problems or he has problems with his work he takes them to "get high". he says that he has been trying to get off of them for 5 days now and he is still saying he is sick, ie having an upset stomach and votimiting. i have never been around anyone whom has been on drugs ever in my life and i do not know how to deal with it.
When I take this medication, I obviously do not take it as prescribed. I am an over-doer. I will take as many as it takes for me to feel the high that hydrocodone gives. Since I have been taking them for a year, that is about 6 at a time. Sometimes I will take 6 then I will take another in 45 min-1 hr, and another again in the same amount of time, to keep the high going. I have been doing this for about 2 weeks. I need to know about overdose.
I was clean from hydrocodone for 4 days and relapsed. I've been relapsing for the past 5 years. I can't stand that I was ever I introduced to hydrocodone! It was never for pain in the past but for the "high" of it. I want to be myself again! I miss me! I have an appointment today with a suboxone doctor and it's suppose to help me have Zero withdrawals and have No More cravings for hydrocodone. I'm praying that this works!
