If you're seriously curious, he was raped because there was a fight that no officers witnessed. Since nobody would tell who was involved, everyone was locked down. After about three days, we came off lockdown after he was removed from the pod. He was then raped in a different pod for being a snitch.

Could you get decent books?

What did you like most/hate most about prison?

[Pete Venkman]

Did you rely on another opiate to help kick the habit? Methadose/Methadone?

How did you get your hands on such an abundant supply of OC's, Vicodin and the like? Give me specifics please.

Can there such a thing as a casual Vic user,or is it an inevitable downhill slide?

On a scale of 1-10, please rate the following: Vicodin, Oxy, Heroin, Percocet and where the hell do 222's fit in? any others?

Do you suffer from any physical problems from your drug abuse?

There was a pretty large library to choose from. You could also have people mail you books, as long as they came directly from a publisher so they couldn't be tampered with. So, yes.

The thing I liked the most is the time you have to reflect. There's really not that much to like though. Basically, you just adjust.

Things I hated were the food, not having any freedom or internet, and having to listen to people talk about politics as if they actually know what they were talking about.

"Did you rely on another opiate to help kick the habit? Methadose/Methadone?"

No. Methadone is just as addicting as heroin, only it doesn't give you a high. So basically, by taking methadone, you have just made it so you are addicted to something that you have to get from a clinic, and not get high from. I did take xanax and smoked weed through the withdrawl, but it was little help.


"How did you get your hands on such an abundant supply of OC's, Vicodin and the like? Give me specifics please."

Vicodin/Percocet/Tylox etc. are easy to obtain. People are given these by doctors liberally, and everyone is willing to sell them. As far as OC's, I met a guy with one leg who was prescribed 90 of the 40mgs, and 90 of the 20mgs a month. He was supposed to take 60mgs three times a day, and they don't make 60mg OCs, so he took one 40 and one 20 three times a day. He didn't take them though and sold them to me at 5 dollars a pill for the 40s and 2 dollars a pill for the 20's. Anyone who knows about OCs knows this is a ridiculously good deal because they can go for $1 a mg in most parts of he US.



"Can there such a thing as a casual Vic user,or is it an inevitable downhill slide?"

I know plenty of people who can take a vicodin occaisonally and drink some beers. Vicodin is very low on the opiate scale, and while it's very possible to be dependent on them, it is also possible to be a casual user. But chances are if you have access to stronger opiates, you will end up taking them, and you become addicted to them.

"On a scale of 1-10, please rate the following: Vicodin, Oxy, Heroin, Percocet and where the hell do 222's fit in? any others?"

Vicodin = 4
Percocet = 5
Oxy 20 = 6
Oxy 40 = 7
Oxy 80 = 8
Average bag of heroin = 8
Fentanyl = 9
Dilaudid = 9
"Raw" heroin = 10

I put raw in ""'s because you'll probably never see it actually raw, but you can get it with very little cut, however it goes for about 700-800 for a quarter ounce. Also note that once you're doing OC's and Heroin, vicodin and percocet are nothing more than tylenol. Also, morphine pills (MS Contin) aren't listed because you can't shoot them (well, you can, but they don't dissolve like OCs and don't get you as high).


"Do you suffer from any physical problems from your drug abuse?"

I have a tiny scar from where I used to shoot up, but it's not that noticeable. I probably suffer more mentally than physical. I think about it still occaisonally, and I know that if I wanted to I could find some within a half hour. But so far, so good...

Anything is possible. It wouldn't be hard for an officer to bring something to an inmate, because this is how most drugs get in (or through visitation).

Were you in any fights? Also good work on kicking the addiction. You seem like an intelligent guy, hope you can stay clean.

Nope, no fights.... i'm pretty good at getting along with people.

Thanks... I haven't used any drugs in about 2.5 years (including weed and alcohol), and it feels pretty good.
