should i take vicodin??
hey guys my name is natalie.. so my friend and i have been toying with the idea of snorting vicodin to see how it feels. i have 2 bottles of it from when i had my 2 knee surgeries. back when i was taking them for my knee pain, i was subscribed to take 4 a day for 2 weeks and i never found myself becoming at all addicted.. so anyway, we both realli just want to snort them since our friends have done it and it seems fun. now it wouldnt be a routine thing, if we liked it, we would prob do it a couple times and thats it. also, we wouldnt use it to lose weight because thats stupid, but does vicodin make u lose or gain weight? and if we used it only a couple times would we lose/gain any wieght?
welcome to the forum......
If I were to tell you that is was really kool to stick a blow torch up your nose because you see some really kool colors and it makes you more beautiful would you do it.......
snorting vicodin is pure addiction in its true form.....
It is very sad to read your post........
Life is so short if I were you these friends I would dis-own..because there not really true friends.....there the devil trying to seduce you into insanity......
Please think about what you said "snorting vics is so much fun"
I hope you change your mind and I know your better than that and I also know if you made a list of the most fun things in the world that you could think of snorting drugs, pills would not be on your list......
Look into the mirror and ask yourself if you think snorting drugs is Kool....

It's a horrible idea. Yes it will give you a buzz for awhile and then you will have to take it everyday just to feel normal. You will end up addicted and it is pure hell. Getting off of it is even worse. Drug addiction is a life long battle and vicodin is highly addictive. It will ruin your life in the long run. We here have all gone through this - it is a horrible ordeal. It will end up changing your lives for the worse or ruining them.
Just to give you an idea: Let's say you decide to start taking them. It's fun for awhile but then you have to take them everyday so you feel like you don't have the flu. If you can't get them you will be in bed all day long - feeling like ****. So then you have to deal with where to get them, lying to people you love and the drug itself makes you numb. All your life consists of is the drug itself. Then you realize what a huge mistake you have made so you decide to stop and this is where the fun begins. When you stop you get really sick. It feels like the flu, only about 10 times worse and it lasts for a long time. Most people need help to stop - so you would have to go to your doctor and tell him what has been going on. So in the future - if you actually need something to help severe pain - it is almost impossible to get.
Please don't do this.

Don't snort things containing Tylenol... Its awful for your nose and lungs.. Can cause serious health issues...
Obviously you are young.. take it from us that this is a bad idea..

You've received some excellent advice in this thread, so I'll just add one more.
Pay attention to the advice in this thread. Nothing speaks like experience.
Hope you don't do it.

A couple times wouldn't make a significant weight difference one way or the other.
For me - I lost weight the first couple months, but then started gaining the last year.
Should you take vicodin? Nope.
Fire looks pretty, and it can be warm and inviting - but if you aren't careful, you'll get burned. Even experts get burned...
Would you become dependant if you only took it a few times? Nope - but it is possible to become an addict - I guarantee you there's thousands of opiate addicts out there, that had the intention of only doing it "a couple times".
Another example -- I was taking my pain meds for pain. I'd take it for a few days, then some times go weeks without having any. I took it for just pain -- however, one day due to a bad flare-up - I took more than usual, and I got high. It went straight down hill from there.
My opinion - don't tempt fate.
