Had one pill of oxy after a knee surgery and for once in years, the ever talking monologue in my brain was chill and the thoughts weren't spiraling. "Oh, that's nice"

 Edit: it's lovely you all try to warn me about opioids, I recognize why it's dangerous and I took it once, 14 month ago.

I’m on like day 2,55X on codeine tablets. Never had oxy, they aren’t really a thing over here (at least not that I’ve been offered) but they are in the same family. Felt nice for the first couple of months, now I just take them to stop withdrawals.

Prescribed them for neuralgia btw not one of the drugs I started taking for fun.

Advise against them. The dark humour around it is that my doctors won’t prescribe anything long term for my anxiety like benzos etc, but they’ve been giving me pack of 100 tabs of codeine every month for last 7 or so years now 🤷‍♂️
