I am in opiate withdrawal yet again. Ran out of Nurofen Plus yesterday when Quintal snr. forgot to buy me a new packet in town. So I'm going to try and give it a go, see if I can get off them for a while and what it's like.
For a few months now the relief after each dose has been getting shorter and shorter until now it barely lasts an hour, and I'm clock-watching for the time when I can take another. I've been off them before several times but always went back again even though I felt well because I kept thinking I'd feel even better if I had an opiate on board. Actually they often made me feel worse at first but I kept on taking them anyway, such is the nature of addiction.
I'm craving cigarettes for some reason (dopamine?) even though it's been years since I smoked one. Going to crawl back under the duvet with my fan heater after this and sleep it off for a while.
