codeine
hi all, I have withdrawn from my DA . Had a range of unsuccessful and unpleasant treatments. After 6 months I have stabilised on approximately 18-35 mg Codeine 2-4 nights a week. My query is whether people have found codeine has any mental health effects as it seems to give me anxiety & moodiness. Wondering
