Im gonna stop heroin cold turkey....

I think I addressed the whole experience thing. Also, I at least make an effort to write something readable. Perhaps you should do the same?

 

Wow... you guys are all SO PITIFUL.

Some guy comes on the internet to reach out and seek help for his heroin addiction. And you all decide to FIGHT ABOUT AGE IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS THREAD. That's shitty. I mean, come on... who really cares about the age of someone!!? On the internet, ANYONE can reply to ANYTHING and it really fucking doesn't matter. It's a free motha fucking country, guys... sorry you didn't get the memo. It shows how self-absorbed you all are to begin FIGHTING in the middle of a poor guy trying to get some help.

And to the guy: Hey.. I know many a persons that struggled with heroin, and it's gonna be fucking tough. I'm sure you already know that. But hey, just know that afterwards, you aren't gonna be at the mercy of some stupid drug. You're gonna feel 8754654 times more better than you did, and you'll be so much more healthy. Hell, smoke a couple of bongloads to get you though--it's okay.

Come back and tell us how you fared. Some people, I'm sure, will care.

 

Im self absorbed? my fucking cousin just died of a heroin overdose, and you're calling me self absorbed? fuck you

 

All i was trying to lay across the field was that in my own experience noone seems to respect older people as much these days, thats all i was fucking saying, had to turn into a pissing contest though

 

worryingly psylence hasnt posted since day 3 of going cold turkey. Can the withdrawals make you so ill you can't/won't want to go online?

 

Dude, heroin withdrawal will make u not want to live lol, i've never been through it cause i've never fucked around with H, but i wouldn't expect psylence to come online during such a hard phase of his life. You gotta give the dude some time

 

The withdrawals are so bad that you can't really do much of anything besides fiend for heroin. They could kill you, but risk is very low, especially since psylence i think (seems from his posts) is pretty healthy for an addict. He definitely FEELS like he is going to die from the sickness though. No joke, why you think junkies ain't afraid to rob liquor stores with their finger pointed like a gun, or rob a kid for his bike in hopes of selling it to get a couple ten bags. The junkies used to be pretty bad here, but still kinda are. There was a guy who robbed a couple dunkin donuts.. his weapon: a used syringe infected with AIDS. He got caught. That was like almost a year ago maybe less. Turns out last week like seven stores got robbed by these two dudes... they catch the dudes, one of them is the AIDS guy. Un-fucking-believable.

 

wow that's awsome to hear.. Good Luck!!

 

When a family members of your is found one morning slumped over dead you may think different.


anyways
Hope ya make it buddy, jus keep remembering that an addiction cant last forever.

 

Yes unfortunately, for opiates, I guess because of how they work, and function throughout your body the addiction does last forever. Not the physical obviously, but mentally, somehow it still got in again. I had done heroin when i was between 18 / 19 and stopped cold turkey and stayed clean (absolutely clean from H. i smoked pot almost constantly) for 2 years.

the reason i need to smoke, is that i enjoy it, and i can't really sleep well or long enough if i'm not knocked out, so H is like awsome but i can't stand the consequences anymore. Not to mention the depression and not really knowing myself.

Kudos to this psylence guy, man i have tried many times so far to quit, cold, with codeine tablets, still i'm always going back. I have family support, but since they can't totally understand this i can't blame them for certain things, and besides i can't bring myself to spill this whole bag of shit over them all over again.

I'm broke, absolutely so i can't purchase the needed pills again, i'm hoping the detox centre will help me out but the Dr. will be there on friday's and monday's only, and i don't have nor can i make an appointment so quickly. i'm just gonna show up and hope they can help with some more pills, i really don't want to take methdone, although i dont know how much the pills will help. I'm pretty much very tolerant of the drug, meaning i need a lot to get like wasted on it, and i need like a pack (i dunno about bags im from a diff country, heh but we deal in packs here as a minimum) to feel normal 2 or 3 packs to not worry about running out for the next 20 hrs or so.

I managed to score last night from my guy, who i promised I'd pay soon, in a couple of days. it will wear off very soon, and i also have a full-time job which im at right now, so i really can't work if i'm doing withdrawl cold turkey. I don't really need advice per say although those tips on what stuff you should shop for when trying to quit was very useful, so hopefully i can try to get some cash maybe from my sis, to at least get the pills.

smoking pot helps a whole lot, specially if you take a couple of codeine pills, which of course you'll have to also quit gradually since they're also addictive. I wish i wasn't in such a vicious cycle - i don't regret every doing H, i just regret that my life has gotten so out of hand, and i have som much stuff i want to change and deal with that using just keeps my mind from going overboard with so much thought. i instantly feel this deep seated panic grip me. plus i know that my view of things is distorted because of it, so i still feel like i won't quit.

hopefully i'll have something more productive to say tomorrow

 

is the original poster still doing good?
i'm kinda curious and worried

 

Good luck man. It's not going to be easy or fun, but you can do it. I wish you all the best, stay strong bud.

 

so, as you know i was tring to kick heroin,,,,and i did it, but the way sucked...I checked into probation on dec 23rd and go piss tested and got popped...they took me to county jail...i went thru withdraw over x-mas in a fucking 5x10 cell....NEVER AGAIN....i missed christmas with my kids...my girl almost left me...i lost my job...
I got out yesterday and i am going to a pretty posh rehab tommorow...6mo....I really need this cuz i have already done 3 roxi 30's (not shooting them tho)...so i hope to have web access there and will keep you guys updated

Heroin= Jail or death..its only a matter of time...you do not want to kick it in jail...no compassion whatsoever....take care..much love, thanks for the support..love you guys

 

read the above ,thanks for the concern, and may you never find that demon

 

PSylence - keep us posted and stay strong.

 

Wow, we were worried about you. Kicking in jail, they didn't even get a doctor to help you out? Isn't that abusive?

Good luck in rehab, I hope you staty strong and clean. Blessings, my man.

 

Yea kicking in a jail must be *really* shitty, a friend's mom did it once, but she was kibbying so hard that the prison doctor gave her some methadone.

 

WHOOOO Woooo woo WHOOOOO!! Psylence you rock dude
--for doing something for yourself, and for people you love

 

I didn't think they just left people to cold turkey in jail, that's barbaric. Anyway, good luck Psylence, try and keep us posted.
