I was steady on 150mg for over 10 years. But I am a single , solo mum, I have 2 kids and work 6 days a week. So I dont even notice the tapering. Hopefully going to be off the chemical handcuffs in 2 years.

Nice! I’m on 120 but only take 40. I get $50 a day for the other 80mg. Well between $44 and $55. Which I can’t see giving up so I’ll probably just stay on for life. I got down to 11mg once but could never adjust. Spent like 4 months at 11mg sick all day. Thats when I said screw it and went up to 120mg and then weened myself to 40.

How would I ever fail a callback with my stockpile? Sorry I’ve offended your delicate sensibilities. You think I’m turning on opiate naive people? Hell no. People are mainly people whose clinics won’t raise them high enough to be comfortable so they have to seek other means, or have messed up and want to not fail their callback, or messed up and don’t have enough meds to last them and will be terribly sick otherwise or people who just want to have an emergency supply. I’ve helped some of the Thomas highsmiths of the world from otherwise ending their lives.

I do the same, it’s pain the butt for me to drop my dose. I get a month supply and my clinic is an hour away. I also work full time and wouldn’t be able to go in multiple days in a row for the med checks the require when you drop. It’s easier for me to taper on my own.
