HOW TO QUIT AN ADDICTION
    #26353171 - 11/30/19 05:36 AM (4 years, 2 months ago)

If someone reading this is addicted right now, such as painkillers or gambling: You have the power to change your mind about wanting to use. So while you use, add more and more motivations for quitting and repeat them with every draw on your cigarette.

If you do this, just THIS, something Magical will happen painlessly: You will reach the point that you TRULY DONT WANT IT ANYMORE and then, the psychological addiction ois over and thenevery pang of withdrawal you repeat to yourself the reasons WHY YOU QUIT. lovingly and with determination.

This genuinely works and hurts the least because you can keep using until you want to quit and every moment of the use you pull the quitting moment closer.

THIS is willpower,l working WITH your mind, not AGAINST IT.

I tried to quit vaping, without really wanting to quit, I ended up quitting nicotine, in attempt to make vaping pointless, but it didnt work, im still vaping 0mg vape all day, I dont know what I can do to actually quit, im still hoping without nicotine I will lose interest in vaping, but not seeming like that is gonna happen

I've been addicted to both heroin and alcohol at different points in my life. Quit heroin for 7 years but became an alcoholic. Quit drinkiing and started doing heroin again. Go figure. :lol:

Recently got on Methadone though at the clinic. Went in there on a whim as I had no cash and was tired of feeling like shit every day. Got dosed that day. Been about 2 months now. Currently on 40 mg of the stuff. I could get into the high 100's but I'm not trying to do the stuff forever. I am however moving up to 50 next week. This dose isn't too bad though I feel fine between doses. Sucks having to walk over to the clinic every morning though as it's winter but it's only like a quarter mile away.

Went a day without it on Thanksgiving as I didn't have a lockbox and for some dumb reason you can't just take it home without one. I actually didn't feel that bad 48 hours after my last dose. I plan on moving to Michigan toward the end of spring so i'll probably start tapering off the stuff around February.

Alcohol is a major bitch it is far more addictive than people give it credit for and once you realize you have a problem it really sucks.

I have had alcohol issues in the past, since I started kratom though last year, I have 0 desire to drink by myself, I still get urges to drink at parties, but they are not really that bad

I've been plagued with addiction my whole life. This last year has been the most drug free year I've had since I was 15. Even now i usually use something a day or two a week, but that's a massive improvement over every day commpulsive addiction. Some weeks are completely sober, but I don't really keep tally as my use isn't problematic.

Maybe I just don't like reality very much, or maybe I just plain like having altered reality. Which if you knew me (and I didn't tell you) you would never guess. I seem to have it all.

Hard core addictions require a mental paradigm shift to stop. Just trying to quit or wanting to quit is not the same as not wanting to take that substance. Wanting to avoid the negative impacts of using drugs yet still wanting to use is so common. Mostly the people who are in this situation don't even realise that's what they think. Yet if you asked them if they could use all day every day with no negative consequences they'd be all "sign me up!". This is not the headspace of someone who seriously wants to give up addiction.

My advice for quitting an addiction. Have someone drop you off FAR out in the wild with nothing but camping equipment and enough food and water for 40 days. By the time they come back not only will you be free from addiction, you'll be enlightened. :tongue2:

Enlightened is not something you become in the woods in 40 days. Lol

Enlightenment is a state of mind, not something you find. And even if you reach a point of balance in your mind where you could truly claim that, it's quickly thrown off with other things. This is why men sit on top of mountains and never come down.

Anyone who tells you they are enlightened is lying. Pretentious modern faux-spiritualism.

What a depressing topic, let junkies be junkies, people be people. A vice is alright.

Most addicts aren't particularly happy being addicts, that's why rehab centres are such lucrative businesses. Many want help but are met with hostility, condemnation, or just plain apathy.

Any way we can help reconnect with isolated people and make them feel valued should be applauded.
