> 1.In some people,Depression is a side-effect of Opiates.Could"double"symptoms.This has never been my experience, perhaps it does occur for some folks, but it is probably quite rare.
> 2.These "feelings of well-being"start to diminish after a few hrs.then generally produce a ragged,tired,shaky,or crabby feeling in some.
Again, this doesn't happen to me. I do feel tired after opiate/opiod experiences... but it is a relaxed, feel-good tired. I will say, however, that opiates/opiods can cause irritability, particularly in social situations.
Anyway... I've been self-medicating myself with hydrocodone the last few days... man I sure do love the stuff... if I wasn't gonna run out soon, I'd be headed for addiction.
