Alright guys, I have a little but of a 'trip report' for you. It's not much, but here goes. At 4ish AM I ingested somewhere around 1.2 grams of Propoxyphene Napsylate. Well, I had a sore throat, very, very sore, and I decided that since I didn't have class that day, I could take all that.

Onset, Duration & After-effects
| ROA | Onset | Peak | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oral | 20-30 min | 1-3 hrs | 1-3 hrs |
Tolerance
Build-up
develops within days of regular use; analgesic tolerance faster than respiratory depression tolerance
Reset
7–14 days for partial reset; full reset may take weeks — tolerance loss greatly increases overdose risk
Tolerance Decay
Full tolerance
1d
Half tolerance
21d
Baseline
~35d
Acute tolerance: develops within a single session — the reset numbers above apply after sustained heavy use, not after one binge. Within-session tachyphylaxis usually resets largely overnight.

It's a Friday evening, normally I'd be toking on a spliff, but there is a bad batch of hash doing the rounds, so I decided to lay off it for a week. As a substitute I would probably take about 4-5 30mg codeine (neat, generic) pills, which were actually prescribed for me a couple a months ago for persistent dry cough.
I am curently experimenting with many drugs. I an a daily weed smoker, and have also tried oxycontin, XTC, Klonopin, valium, hydrocodone, cocaine, and several other drugs.
I have been experimenting with various drugs for about 13 years. Most of the drugs I have used in the past were illicit, or 'street' drugs. I have had very little experience with pharmaceuticals. A few months ago, I was prescribed Darvon for a back injury.
Ok to start I am not very experianced with drugs. I am what you would probably consider very young to be taking the drugs I do. I smoke pot occasionally, have taken DXM, all sorts of Pharms (Hydrocodone, Codiene, Oxycodone, Adderall) And was looking through my parents medicine cabinet and saw something called Propoxyph...
4:20 Ingested four darvocets, which have 100 mg of propxyphene and 325 mg of acetaminophen per pill. This is my first time experiencing with Darvocets, so I was going to start with 4 only, but figured what the hell and at 4:30 took my fifth. 5:00 no notable symptoms, really. Chatting on the internet.
I got my hands on some 65mg (Imprint 5110 V) capsules. When I pried one open I was glad to find the substance in a fine powder inside the capsule, perfect for insufflation. So I separated the powder into 3 small lines.
