I'm on methadone at the moment, as a painkiller, 5mg twice a day. When I first got them, I had 10mg per evening, and the next day I had an audio hallucination.
Right, so I reckon they're pretty strong, but after looking around online, smack addicts have 100-130mg of the stuff. That's 13 times as strong as what I had. And that stuff is supposed to be really weak compaired to smack.

As someone who takes a lot of opiets (legit reasons), I can't imagine what Smack is like.

Nature's cruel trick
These things are no fun if you actually *need* to take them

Try taking 13 times the amount

some wankers from my school killed and coma'd themselves on methadone.

Oh no, I deffo enjoy them, if anything, I enjoy them more, as they stop me from being in pain or anxious.
Almost like what it's like falling asleep on the couch infront of the telly; anyone can enjoy that. But those who go to the gym first (and therefore need to crash out more) would find it even more enjoyable.

What I don't enjoy is needing them, but them themselves, yup, I enjoy them.
Enjoy isn't the right word, 'using' I think might be better.

'need'

Yah', that's right.
I seriously f'cking hate the fact that not a week goes buy where I don't see at least two doctors. My life is improved like a billion fold since I've started on the methadone; I'm no longer withdrawing 3 or 4 times a day, which I've been doing for the last 4 years.

Every weekend I've been anxous about running out early because I needed an extra dose in the middle of the night.... going to the out-of-hours doctors and ringing around all the phamacies to see who stocks them... begging and being distrort because it's a bank holiday weekend, I didn't realise, and the doctors is closed. Knowing I am an horrific wreck of a person, a shaddow of a person, with everything including time itself iratating me making me worst and worst until I can get that hit again. Franticly looking online to see if you can find somewhere that'll sale them, realising if you get cault, you can go to jail, or worst, that the tablets will be counterfit from india (or whatever) and be rat poison. Knowing that with every dose you take, it'll take more next time to do anything. That eventually you take so much that it has no effect at all, but you still take it, because you're in pain, because they've stopped working.

Morphine addiction is terrible. 4 years of this. 12 years of the same thing with Codine before that.

.... Today when I went to pick up my prescription, I even had left-over morphine tablets, as I felt I simply didn't need to take all my doses in the week. I haven't once felt anxious about taking them, I hardly think about them at all now. And when I do take the morphine, it is _soo_ much stronger.

S'funny, it sounds a lot more romantic when William Burroughs writes about it.
You have my sympathy, for all the good it will do you...

Do not tell your doctor that you enjoy them
He will never prescribe them again.

See above, he knows I enjoy them, but I also need them.
