Opiate addicts support group * 4
    #23267340 - 05/24/16 07:33 PM (7 years, 8 months ago)

A lot of us have been struggling with opiate addiction/relapse recently and I know a lot of us want to put down junk and turn our lives around.

I think it would be best for all of us in this boat to support eachother and ban together to get junk out of our lives.

Today I did what I hope to be my final bag of junk for a while and used my final needle which I threw away after using it. Some other memebers here have told me they are in the middle of kicking or planning to kick very soon.

If your struggling please share what's going on and how your doing. Share your detox plan and record your progress. Also this thread can serve as a place for members who have previously suffered from opiate addiction to show support to members still struggling.

I believe if we support eachother we can turn our lives around and break free from the chains of junk.

It might be worth getting this moved to, and stickied in Physical and Mental Well-Being - there's already an Alcohol support thread there, as well as a recently stickied Marijuana support thread.

Obviously up to you Con, but I reckon it'd fit nicely along with those other two, and would have less chance of getting lost than it would in ODD.

Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not.

I'm gonna use meth tomorrow to power through day one of heroin withdrawals. I relapsed almost 7 months ago after 6 months clean following a month long relapse. Before that and a couple very brief relapses I was opiate-free for 5ish years. This time around I've been primarily smoking as opposed to shooting as before.

Tomorrow will be my detox day one. Im expecting to wake up at 430 covered in sweat. From there I will smoke some weed and probably sleep for another hour before needing a shower. After shower and breakfast I will try to talk myself into snorting a bump of meth, as I know that it takes 90% If not more of my physical withdrawals for quite a long time. The toughest part is pulling the appetite to rail that first line...

I Always eat before doing any meth and try to eat on it. I also take multivitamins if I'm on it for any period of time. And drink lots of water especially if you're kicking opìates.

I'm doing okay considering.

I snorted that crystal and it's taken my mind off opiates. I'm sweating a bit but that's my only negative symptom. I made it to school which I wouldn't have done without that line.

How u doing conn?

Doing ok man.

I'm starting to realize just how big of a role working/not working plays into my mind state for the day.

When I don't work I end up alone in my house all day doing nothing which makes me depressed and the depression makes me want to use.

I'm bummed because my boss said we would be working today but this morning he said he couldn't because of problems with his wife.

I'm about to take some Kratom and try and chill out for a bit.

Yeah, well good thread and all, I am hear for any of you fuckers just shoot me a PM anytime if you're laying awake and in agony and want to shoot the shit, I don't know but yeah just wanted to say that, it doesn't bother me at all.

The hardest part about getting clean is if you had been using for a long period of time, it's like literally impossible to get clean, and STAY clean if you come back to the same area you were using in.  Reason it's so hard is because lets say you go to a rehab, well most of those aren't that long, and you will be out soon enough and back to your old shenanigans ASAP, especially if/when you see your old friends.  I read someplace that you pick up like 90% of the habits your friends have, so choose your friends wisely if you plan on staying clean.

Sorry I didn't see this til just now. Yea I know what you mean about feeling stagnant when out of work. Monster.Com has a hella cool app that makes ir super easy to turn in your resume' it's like 2 button click. I've gotten hella job interviews since I started doing that.

This is true, when you're at home stay busy if you can, or even get out and do something, walk around, anything.  I used to walk around and listen to music when I was dope sick, I would go to the city and just walk around, talk to all the crazy street people, really took my mind off of things for a bit, plus sunshine and its warmth can be a wonderful antidepressant when ill.

What is your plan, or are you just going to play it as it comes?  My ex and I used dope together for years, we were renting a house from her mom, once her mom found out we were on dope she kicked us out, so we had to clean up quick.  I had an income which could be made without leaving a place of residence, so I could go anywhere and work which was great for a bit, until we moved to another state and I had to seek regular work it was only once we moved back to the state we first got into dope in, that we both relapsed.

We relapsed within  2 weeks of moving back, shit was crazy, but it was just so hard to say no when your good friends all did it, and it was there to use all the time.  One thing I will say about junkies, they will try to drag you down with them, the saying "misery loves company" is very true in the world of addiction.  My best friend would find out I would be trying to kick for the millionth time, and then and only then would he offer me free dope, fucking bastard!:syringe:


I am rambling, 2nd cup of coffee tend to get me that way, but yeah I guess what I am trying to say is one of the only things which will benefit you in a huge way, is getting to a new area for a while.  Once you have a decent amount of time away from things, you might be fine to venture back to the areas you frequented before, but I would give it a year if you can, I know this is not possible for everyone though.

DXM can be very useful, so can loperamide but be careful with it because you might already be constipated from opiates, and add the imodium on top of that and you will be shitting a brick, you don't want to strain to hard and blow out your O-ring.

Chocolate is also helpful, and you got to stay hydrated because opiates dry you out.

I found that stimulants had no positive effect on withdrawals, in fact they increased the anxiety I was having, and made me feel worse.

I don't have any experience with nootropics and withdrawals, but I have read that some of them can be beneficial.

that is what i hate most about going off opiates is the sweating.  I go from hot/cold instantaneously.  And the sneezing and runny nose.  If I dont re-up I'll be in that boat.  If I ever hit 48 hours off opiates I am going to stay off.  Most drugs are out of your system and blood stream in a matter of hours.  I believe the majority of withdrawl is psychosomatic.  thats why its really good to be busy and keep your mind occupied.

Fen, no I dont have much of a plan. I have kicked heroin soo many times in the last 8-9 years its not even funny. I am not able to leave my area. actually I already left my area to be where I am. I dont have friends that use, Just a dealer I came across at the bar that is perfectly willing to deliver to my house. and nobody I know knows I relapsed, so Im in it alone.


I know its not the best for everybody to do, but meth ahs been a godsend for me this time around. Ill be at 48 hours after work and I feel pretty ok. my only symptom is cold chills, I blame the meth. usually when I wake up 6 hours after my last dose i wake up covered in sweat and sick as a dog. I am fine, I went to school yesterday and work. Only issue with meth is that it makes it hard to sleep, but in w/d you prolly arent sleeping anyways. Ill prolly use a little meth tomorrow and then on day four see how I feel.

i wish you luck.  I am sure i'll be there with you shortly.  I really want to quit.  I use both on a steady basis.  Opiates daily.  I am an alcoholic above all else.  Tequila is the love of my life.  I stopped drinking when I started heroin.  I traded one vice for another.
