My pill thingy should arrive tomorrow. I actually spoke to my doctor as I didn't know if the medications were the kind you could expose to the air as some of them swell up. He said they're all able to be stored safely for 2 weeks at a time after being popped from their blister packs.
As a side note, I don't understand why anyone takes opiates. I made a mistake one day and the feeling was really awful. Being all floaty and detached was just weird. Granted I'm an alcoholic so maybe that has similar symptoms but to me it really wasn't the same. At least when drunk I feel like I'm still present and sharp, although it's a false feeling of course. With the opiates I felt absent and fuzzy, not a nice sensation.
But hey we all have our drugs of choice I guess.
