Would anyone who has had experience with oxy users tell me the behaviour you see in them while they are taking this drug?
What kinds of things to they do?
Thanks so much

T,
How 'bout if I'm a former OxyContin user myself? What behaviors have you worried? Maybe you could narrow your question down some 'cause you could see any number of things depending on how and how much someone is using, you know?

Peace,
Eddie

Actually Eddie, My husband has become the strangest person on the planet. He falls asleep at any time. Actually it;s nodding. If you could see the ciggarette burn holes in this house you would faint! He stays awake all night and fights sleep. He's in a stupor sometimes, others he's fine. I did find him on the toilet one time, bent over with his head between his legs, passed out. He falls asleep on the toilet.
I would really like to hear some of the bizarre behaviour seen by others, and their stories.
Thanks,
T

You just described me to a 'T', T!! When I got clean, I had to get rid of a lot of things I had dropped lit cigarettes on. And I used to fall asleep on the toilet all the time, too. Classic opiate intoxication stuff! I would be up all night, refuse to go to bed, but then nod off even standing up. One night, my husband videotaped me when I was really messed up. I was mad and erased the recording, but now I wish I had it so I could VIVIDLY remember where I don't ever want to go again! Best wishes to you and your husband, T.

Peace, love, hugs, and joy,
Eddie
