Forum: Reconditioning & Treatment

I'm not sure where to start with this but ill just let it come from the heart. If i can just help one person, give them some hope, then it will have been worth the write up a thousand times over. I am not well known on these boards but i have...

Due to availability issues I'm forced to kick fairly soon. For 6-7 months I was taking anywhere from 90-120 mg of oxy (instant release, orally or plugged) per day. When I found out my clinic closed (FL), I started going into conservation mode...

First off i would like to think ALL of yall here for not only being a big part of my support group and for talking me back down for countless ledges esp the near iv incedent i had a lik over a month ago or somethin like that. Yall have been there...

I was doing so well. After 2.5 years on Bupe I was down to .2-.25 every 16 hours. Then this past month I spent $800 on dope. My tolly is back up (though .25 every 12 hours still holds me well enough to function thank God). I want to give...

In the past few months I've noticed a gang of members(new and old) trying to kick this habit we all have. I just wanted to start this thread to wish everyone trying to get clean good luck and support. It's always good to see one of us defeat...

My family wants me to do some sort of treatment. They said something about a 3 day detox? Sounds like a joke to me honestly. Anyone ever went through that? I have an assessment tomorrow at a guidance center. I'm not sure what that all entails but...

Well the psych/therapist called yesterday to get my insurance info. Called me back and told me they didn't take my insurance (and I can't stand our damn ins since we had it. Nothing but a pain in my f* a$$. I can't even get meds without going...

Hey guys. I’ve beenbrowsing the forums for years, and thought it was time to give somethingback. So here is the method I used totaper off of Suboxone after a 5-year run. For me the transition from full agonists to Suboxone was the hardestpart, and...

The last week or so I've been searching around, looking for recovery communities that aren't AA centric. I've seen a few, but nothing really stands out so far, though I can't say I've honestly given anyone much of a chance. Any recommendations?

Hey everyone, do I'm getting ready to take the plunge and head to rehab. I'm looking into different places and just want to hear some experiences. How sick did you get? How long we're you in? Was it effective? What would you recommend or do...

Do you really think it's possible after a certain point (high dose, extended time on MMT, etc) for withdrawal to be painless? Is there some point after which you're going to fucking feel like shit no matter how slowly your dose goes down (even...

Hey guys, I've been relatively clean since March, and finally figured out the answer to a question I've had for a while. I always wondered what the maximum amount one could use without getting a habit and going thru withdrawls when they stop was,...

This is going to be all over the fucking place and I apologize but I need to pour my heart out somewhere and I hope some of you will listen if you can. This shit is seriously long and fucking pathetic so if you make it to the end, I thank you. ...

Dear Opiophile, So, it's been one year clean. It's been quite the journey. There were many days I thought I wouldn't make it, yet here we are. My life has improved immensely since getting off the opioid roller coaster. Kinda boring, but FAR...

Well, it's been a while since I've visited this forum. I used to be here everyday searching threads endless in my quest for opiate information. I was an Oxycontin addict for almost 7 years before real change came. I had finished college as a...

Alright, I've been doing a lot of thinking lately. For a long time I have been able to maintain my habit without too much trouble. However, over the past few months, it's been getting more and more out of control. In the past, I never wanted to...

dannys old drug worker was as sound as the proverbial pound, knew the score for a couple reasons that im not gonna put out for public consumption, but rest assured that she was good, very friendly and supportive, basically more like a priest for...

It started off as the perfectly regulated plan, but as of now it looks very much like the end of the road for my usage of normal opiates. Background I went into the world of recreational opiates very educated with the knowledge necessary to...

I'm eight days clean today! I have been doing very well and am very serious about quitting this time...but today I got paid for the first time since I quit. Makes me want to use sooo badly. I used to always pick up on my lunch break and so today on...

I've been thinking lately about the possible effects of long-term, dependent opiate use (with frequent withdrawal periods) on the immune system. As I understand it, our endogenous opioid system plays an important role in our immune system's...

The title says it! I'm a little excited, a little frightened, and I'm rather happy overall, despite being in the first part of withdrawal. The reason I'm making a new thread, being such a new member here, isn't for reasons you might expect. I've...

I'm not SURE if this is the best forum for this thread, and if so, feel free to move it mods (please don't ban me. LOL. I notice a lot of new members pleading not to get banned; I think it is because we see so many people who have been here for a...

I have habit of about 350mg of hydrocodone a day right now. (I am okay from an acetaminophen perspective, so let’s not derail the thread with “your liver will die!” posts). I may have tried other stuff (oxy, roxi, pods, dilaudid (oral), subs), but...

I started suboxone maintenance(officially, not self-medicating) about three weeks ago, but for about a month before that I started seeing a psychologist to help get my use under control and gain some perspective on the situation. At the end of our...

So I just picked up a package of this stuff: LOK WO CHA (herbal tea) Has 24 doses (12 packets) in the package.. Did some research and these are the ingredients: (pleases forgive formatting issues.. I cut and pasted from a variety of...
