> Well, I definitely have developed a tolerance to oxycontin, but my pdoc is letting me continue to go up.
That sort of scares me. They used to give addicts methadone in whopping doses, increasing so high that the effect plateaued. The idea was to make the addict completely chained, enslaved really, to the clinic. It's probably still going on in some places.
> (He doesn't want to switch to bupe (or buph)
I'd pronounce "buph" as "buff." :-)
> The thing that made me wonder if oxycontin is making my depression worse, is how horrible I feel when I wake up in the morning.
What time do you take it at night? It sounds like rebound to me.
