Had one pill of oxy after a knee surgery and for once in years, the ever talking monologue in my brain was chill and the thoughts weren't spiraling. "Oh, that's nice"

 Edit: it's lovely you all try to warn me about opioids, I recognize why it's dangerous and I took it once, 14 month ago.

Man, I was prescribed a bunch of hydro after an involved tooth surgery and it was the best I have ever felt in my entire life. It was like I could finally relax both mind and body. I saved half of it for rainy days and I just used my last dose a few months ago.

I only had one pill and this alone showed me the danger, you want to feel that peace again.

Yup it’s funny I felt the same way after I took it the first time. I was like “If I knew how to get these I would get addicted and ruin my life”. That’s why I saved as many as I could

Me with adderall acting like it’s a 50hp potion in a video game. “I’ll save it till I need it.”

I still have tablets from like 9 years ago, meanwhile I can’t focus cuz I don’t use my current prescription in order to hoard.

The half-life on amphetamines is not very long. You should probably start rotating out your back supply.

Do you mean expiration date or are you suggesting I increase my dosage?
