What will it be like?

When I get my refill (next friday: Oxycontin 40 mg), IF.....  I decide to take a pill....what will the effect be after 9 to 10 days off the pill....will it be intense? I need to know...please don't fudge the truth to make me not want to!!!??? I promise to try and dispose of them instead of ingesting them!

The best thing and you know it, is to git rid of them, if you are nervous about it give them to someone you trust not to give them to you unless you are "dying in agony".  But to answer your question the longer you go without the lower your tolerence becomes so the amt you used to take will be way too much.  In addition you risk over dosing because it is hard to gauge what effect it will have on you.

I don't think you should flush them..I think you should just not get it refilled or just pick it up and have somebody hold them for you.

I have almost exactly the same situation. You'll have to flush them as soon as you get them, every month. If you want to quit.

Dude you know good and well If you refill that script where it is going. If you are serious don't refill it. By time next Friday gets here you will be out of the woods.
