serious question regarding percocet

S

ELITE MENTOR

I was just reading that percocet is an opiate that will provide a sense of euphoria, which is part of the reason people get addicted to it. it gives them a general sense of well being etc.

well, i'm not getting any sense of well being or euphoria, and instead, i've been rather emotional (sad), which i know is because i've been in a GREAT deal of pain for a full week, and I can't friggin' walk, etc.

i was just having some pain, despite the fact that I took a perc 45 minutes ago, so i decided to try to see some of my foot, which is still horrific looking- and I just lost it.
so i'm wondering... WHERE IS THE EUPHORIA???

do any of you drug addicts get SAD from opiates? or is it just the pain and being imprisoned in my guest room that's gotten to me?
 
everyone is affected differently I guess, me I feel great,but my father takes them everyday to function due to his back problem and he battles depression aswell
 
The euphoria comes with higher doses. And for addicts without it they feel depressed and out of it they need it to run on normal. The euphoria for me comes with about 20mgs.
 
Drugs do different things to some people. A great example is how ETOH(alcohol) makes some people feel very happy... when it's a depressant...
I have recently consumed some ETOH of my own, so please, don't p'wn me on grammer and spelling.
 
I've never understood the attraction to vicodin and percs.

One night I was with this chick (it could happen) who was into them and I took an assload (hard to quantify exactly) and drank a shitload (also hard to quantify) and I never did feel them ... just got drunk.
 
Stilleto - have you been on them on & off during the week? I used them for about 4-5 days after I had a surgery - they helped w/ the pain but mostly they made me pretty muddy in the head - I just slept. But I was real foggy when I woke up and waiting for them to wear off. A couple days after I stopped taking them I experienced a noticable depression which I attributed to sort of a detox from them.

I also had a friend who became addicted to lorcets after he smashed his wrist in a construction accident. Granted the guy has an extremely addictive personality and had other issues anyway (e.g. "raver" --- aka party drugs, always g'd out or flying on something, functioning alcoholic, LOTS of personal drama related to his screwy family and ex who had custody of their little girl and only married him for a green card) -- but at the bottom of his addiction he needed a place to stay so I put him up in my house for a month and watched him detox since his prescription for the lorcets had run out months ago and his own "source" ran out as well ---> it was friggen tragic watching this guy go thru the shakes, etc. That's why all that stuff scares me -- sure it may make you feel good, but the physical detox is brutal and the depression associated with it has to be just .... wow, there aren't words.

i haven't stopped taking them at all this past week- the first few days I was taking around 10 a day and still in pain. now i'm down to one in the morning, one in the early evening, and one before bed (and still in pain. i'd really like to take more but i'm tired of being a zombie). I was in a fog for days, but i've been on the verge of tears this whole week (more than just the verge at the drop of a hat) and I didn't know if it was depression from the percs or from the pain.
I'm rarely depressed or overly emotional, so this isn't normal for me.
 
being laid up and unable to partake in your normal activities and also being in a lot of pain can take a toll on your emotional health. its very common to experience depressive symptoms related to pain or medical problems. since you are typically a very active person, you may be having a hard time adjusting to your new state of immobility.

also, the drugs

Percocet side effects include but are notl imited to:

drowsiness

constricted pupils

nausea

euphoria

dizziness

light-headeness

sedation

vomiting

constipation

depressed feeling

exaggerated feeling of well-being

itchy skin

skin rash

slowed breathing

Imo - the addictiveness of any pain killer seems to be lessened by the amount of pain you are actually in.

I had 2 friends using Oxyc after major car accidents......they developed no addiction whatsoever......their Dr gradually switched to another analgesic as their pain symptoms improved.

Contrast that with "healthy" folks who abuse oxyc.....addiction can happen with a week

also, didnt you say you had a beer last night? alcohol mixed with percocet can likely cause increased depressive symptoms

i did, but i wasn't any more emotional than usual- i think i cried cause my skin was dry last night. i guess its the pain and loss of mobility that's getting to me, plus i'm worried its taking so long to heal and i'm incredibly dependant, which i don't like.

You totally missed my point about the pain factor versus the addictiveness.

oh. i'm a simpleton lately. its the drugs.

so i need more than i'm taking? i slept through the night, finally. only till 7am, but still.
it hurts, and i'm feeling blue.
 
you are fine.....its alomost impossible to develop a physical addiction to painkillers while you are in pain.

ok... good.
i wasn't worried about getting addicted though. i was worried about why i'm crying all the time. if percs have gotten me depressed or the fact that i want to amputate my own foot.

Might take a bit, but you should find your answer over there. Or start a thread about the same thing. Many people over there are quite surprisingly knowledgeble.

barely. i can shuffle around the house, and then i pay for it later. its still very red and bleeding a little. i think i did too much, which wasn't very much.
i can't even touch most of my foot without pain.
 
Taking pain meds like percocet for pain and recreation have dif. effects. When used for pain, they do what they're intended for. To get a high from pain meds., you have to get going doing something. When I have done them in the past for fun, they were great as long as I was active doing something. If were to just sit around they would make me very groggy and would eventually put me to sleep. I wouldn't worry about getting addicted for your situation unless you were to stay on them for months at a time. Take them if you need them. You'll be fine.
 
That does not sound fun at all.....I have been sick for three weeks and Ill just keep that instead of a repaired foot LOL

you missed my point.
i'm not worried about being addicted.
i'm wondering why i'm crying all the time.

my cat killed a mouse yesterday. first one in years. later, he came and sat down next to me. i was petting him and burst into tears because i knew he felt he saved our lives.
:rolleyes:

Fair enough. I wouldn't think it's the percocet contributing to your temporary depression. Rather I would think it's due to being laid up not being able to do anything b/c of your foot. Could be the percs. are just magnifying your current state. Just hang in there and keep reminding yourself it's only temporary. Once you get those pins out and I assume phys. therapy, you'll be on your way in no time.
 
if its not helping get special Vicodins

that have 10 mgs of Vicondin and only 250 acetemetophin

ask your doc, they ARE available

thank you. i hope so.
 
From what you have described I think it is less the percocets and more your situation - constant pain, loss of the ability to take care of yourself and your normal activities, heck not being able to sleep next to your husband would be enough of an explanation for your depression.

A few years back when my GI tract was making my life intolerable (hooked up to feeding tubes and constant pain if I ingested anything) I had to have the docs keep switching pain meds because they made me paranoid. I was actually hallucinating. It was VERY unsettling. So they switched me to a drug (cant remember the name of it now) that was a tablet and they gave it to patients who had open heart surgery. Can you imagine the pain of your chest being cracked open?

Shit... I wish I could remember the name of it now. But it was NON-addictive (I was VERY concerned as I saw longterm use for painmeds in my future)...

If I heard the name of the drug I would recognize it.

Sorry that it's taking so long to heal. :(
 
if you read past the general side effects to the ones that only 1 0r 2% of the population gets. . .you'll probably find those sides. . .fyi. . .you're not alone. . .all of the weird sides that one in a million people get, i get them evrytime. . .

thanks bmom.
i'm not worried about being addicted- i would gladly give them up if i could stand the pain.
you made good points though on the depression- thats probably all it.
that, and worrying about why the healing is so slow, but its probably just me being impatient.
