I Have Been Taking From 30 To 60 Mgs Of Oxycodone Twice A Day
UpdatedI have been doing this for about 8-10 months now. I rarely feel a euphoria, but it gives me motivation to do things. Without it I don't feel like doing anything. I am on anti-depressants and other medications. My depression is TRD (treatment resistant depression). I also have Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and for the past 3 months, I sound like I have a clothes pin on my nose. My breathing is not good. I feel I am psychologically addicted, because I stopped it for two weeks and had no problems. I can go into a rehab because I live with family and was in recovery for alcohol and drugs. I was told if I ever did anything at all even once I would get kicked out. I'm now getting scared. Could someone scare me even more so I might get a better idea of the damage I am doing to myself and stop!

Hello, Candy! How are you?
If you have COPD, then you are definitely putting your life at risk.
The COPD already causes problems with your breathing and taking narcotics, such as Oxycodone, cause depression of the central nervous system, so they lower your rate of breathing, your heart rate and your blood pressure.
As the COPD progresses and you continue to take more of the Oxycodone, you're risking your heart and lungs shutting down and being unable to function.
The FDA classifies this medication as being ga This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.
What other medications do you take? They may also complicate things even further.
