Cool man. That makes a lot of sense, when I use opiates I never really use weed. When I'm dabbing it's usually/almost always when I'm kicking H cold turkey these days. Otherwise, I pretty much just smoke weed and I don't have that same pull towards script opioids. It is just mindfulness from the herb. Wish I had been using opium instead. Just don't really know what chemicals went in my body although I sniffed. Well, I did a very slight taper but at day 8 and feeling okay. I have so much to do I really hope this doesn't long but if I go back it's going to last longer, I don't have another withdrawal in me.
 
I came up with a description about my novel a while ago, but I think I'll give it a second shot.

My novel is a speculative, dystopian novel, with elements of horror, psychological, and sci-fi, as well as being deeply philosophical. It is set a hundred years or more into the future, where two young adult females survive an attempted assassination, leading them to revolt against the dystopian US government, by stockpiling biochemical as well as traditional weapons. The novel follows their efforts to change the world through an assault on a military compound, all the way through a main character's plot to depopulate the world, and what then unfolds as a result of their actions.

Whether or not any one point of the book represents a 'utopia' or 'dystopia' is dependent on the reader's perspective and ideology, and I write the novel knowing that each reader will have a unique experience and appreciation for certain events that unfold in the novel.

Definitely sounds interesting! Haven't read a novel in a while tbh but I'd read this any day

Stay strong man! Feel free to stop by in Sober Living some time. :)
 
That's honestly a book that I would be very interested in reading. Do you mind me asking if you drew inspiration from any authors in particular? I'm a big fan of Orwell's writing.

I can't quite say with a lot of certainty. I've always had a lot of creative passion in writing, and a lot of it came naturally. Atlas Shrugged likely inspired a good deal of the themes the most. Gravity's Rainbow is something I read after having written a great deal of it, so I can't say it inspired much but I definitely took more creative control in utilizing poems, etc. The multi-generational perspective, and prolonged tragedy experience I probably felt inspired from Tolstoy's War and Peace. The Count of Monte Cristo also was a huge source of inspiration.

Happy 4th to those of us lead by the Trump.

Family and friends were originally suppose to come to my house this evening for the celebration.

Woke up early and was cleaning the backyard. Just finished up and tried to reach up to slightly stretch my back a little when something tweaked funny in my back. Hurts like hell, can barely move.

Wife then says she forgot to tell me the gathering has moved to my inlwas house. Kind of bitter sweet. Glad we are no longer hosting but feel used - I think my wife intentionally waited until I was finished cleaning the backyard before saying anything.

Well I got her back. Threw my back out. Oh wait...

I messaged you man I've been SO damn sick and it's going on almost 2 weeks now, I still have a total lack of energy. I'm doing 30 min yoga a day, trying to eat healthy and vegan to clean my system out. Drinking lots of water and tea. I'm giving it everything I got this time because I can tell that withdrawal like this really takes a lot out of me physically. I've lost a lot of weight, I just did 15min yoga outside in the sun and fuck it was tough. I can't go back to heroin though, even though I probably will.

damn son, sending good vibes your way.
that's an awfully long withdrawal isn't it? i tend to only go for a week max, and they're in nowhere as near as soul-crushingly exhausting as yours are (and i have chronic fatigue from a brain injury so..)
sounds like you need some carbs up inside ya! cheese pizza would get all them oxytocins rushing about ya skinny little bod!
did you go vegan for moral reasons or just being healthy? cause i prescribe you junk food asafp.

Unfortunately submissions for this round is closed. But thank you for voting and I'm looking forward to your entry in the next round :)

and cheers TPD, looking forward to it :)

That sucks about your back dude! That would throw me into a tailspin of negativity; physical pain coupled with dealing with the in laws.
My wife's friend just recently came clean that she was using crystal meth and heroin (or whatever is being sold as heroin these days) and I'm finding it difficult to explain to my wife that her friend has to be the one who chooses to get well and there is no amount of convincing that can make that happen. I was lucky in some regards because the pain of loosing my marriage outweighed the pain of withdrawals. My wife wants her friend to move in with us- and I think it's a bad idea. Addiction is an inherently selfish process, and I care more about 'me' staying clean than helping her friend. Any advice fellow OD'ers? Happy 4th fellow compatriots

Yeah, I get really long withdrawals. at least 10 days of physical agony. Man it's SO draining.

I'm a vegetarian, not vegan, thing is dude even at Day 10 I can barely eat. I had argentina wild shrimp the other day because I needed the food and I didn't care. I got a veggie pizza and had that yesterday. I think though man I really need protein as well as carbs. Man I'm just so fucked.
I went vegetarian well it's hard to pinpoint why. I just did haha, because it was easy to with my diet already being how it is (it was essentially just removing shrimp and fish at that point). Then I noticed a spiritual component. I really like it though, I love vegan food but I was 200lbs most of this year until opiate withdrawal caught up with me. While using, I exercise every day but in withdrawal I can barely go 15 minutes, it's exhausting at half or a quarter of the normal weight.

I need more weed and shatter for that. can't be losing too much weight especially since I will likely be immediately relapsing as soon as I can.

that's so unfortunate man, i've got a really fast clearance rate which is kind of annoying when i have to redose all the time but at least it gets the wd's out the way swift-ish.

yeah i actually am not too sure why i suggested that cause i'm the same, when i'm rattling i don't want to eat a thing.
maybe i'm just hungry..
i don't know if i could ever give up fish, i don't eat it all the time but mannn to live without it, unthinkable.
i was pescetrian for almost three years so i can kinda relate

its cool how you connected with some spirituality with a dietary change - isn't it the Buddhist monks who are vegan for kinda the same reasons?
i just changed mine because my mum got cancer and her doctors suggested cutting out meats and such so i decided to do it with her, and i loved it!
she recovered and ijust carried on for like another year and a half ahahah :D

i'm like 140lbs and neverrr exercise, i can't think of anything worse tbh lol

have you tried vitamins? b12 and stuff? anything to pump a bit of extra energy into your withered frame aha

you need to focus on you dude, i think its a bad idea having someone in such close proximity who could potentially mess with your recovery.
call me selfish, but you need to put your own recovery first.

oh and happy fourth of july all!
 
Keeping, my highs never last long anymore. I used to have the longest highs, then it was like I was high for 2 hours. My body learned how to metabolize the opiates more efficiently. It fucking sucks, normally I have a fast metabolism.
I think buddhist monks have one meal a day. And yeah man I love vitamins - B complex, magnesium, potassium - but I can't afford them at the moment.
Man, I love exercise. That's probably one reason my back is so fucked up. Wasn't really all that careful.
