Apparent concern

I know, you're strong. At least we still have those choices. ;)

You're always being strong too. <3

It's always good to hear from you.

<3 Stay strong my friend. At the very least, we all got each other on here to relate to & share our struggles with. I've met some amazing people thanks to BL!

Until I can think of something then. lol. That cool. 🙌:cool:
 
I lost my suboxone doctor of a decade.
And the new place I was gonna do wants me to start over with peeing every 4 weeks, required NA classes & daily group meetings. I said fuck that.
I did not get to a point in bupe treatment where I only needed to see my doc every 12 weeks & do maybe 1 piss test a year, just to go all the way back to beginning & do NA classes & all that bullshit.

If I'm gonna pee every 4 weeks & do NA classes & bullshit, I'd rather be on a full agonist. Buprenorphine ain't worth all that trouble.

And my psyche is talking about taking me off my benzo. She's been pretty chill with it for years until suddenly she did a completely random blood draw on me today & I'm sure I had hydrocodone in my system. So now she'll probably definitely take away my benzo. I was so taken aback because they've never done a blood draw on me before. So out of all times to choose to do it, she just had to choose the day I took some hydrocodone. :rolleyes:

I feel like I have zero agency over my own bodily autonomy in America. And I'm so sick of it.

I might as well go back to being an alcoholic or become a full blown meth head or fentanyl user (if I could even find fent). Cause clearly the healthcare industry only cares about punishing people & then cutting them off so that their lives are ruined.
 
Stop the lies about addiction

I wish someone had told me in my eighth grade fucking rehab that the problem is prison not “brain cells”

It's a sad state of affairs in the USA. I wish that they'd not overturned Roe vs Wade, because that could have been, at least theoretically, used to further emphasise and enforce the right to privacy.

Sadly, now that is gone, and women are once again relegated to 2nd class citizenship in many parts of the USA (arguably all of it, if you want to be technical about it), it appears there is no constitutional right to privacy, and according to the arguments in relation to that court matter, there never really was.

America...land of the free /S

Yep. Prison is very bad for one's mental health, and of course, does very little if anything to resolve the problem that the drug addict has founded their entire habit upon. Relationship problems, ongoing fights with parents, bullying, etc, are not going to be fixed by prison time. In fact, if anything they will be made much worse, and when the person comes out of prison they will want to enact some kind of "reprisal" against the very society that threw them under the bus. So these people keep offending, right up to the point of murder and other serious crimes, all because a society decided to treat them as lesser beings.

It still makes no sense to me why I decided to risk prison for weed when I was 13, I do know drug laws are wrong

Couldn't agree more honestly.

I actually wish more women would get angry, not just about abortion laws, but just bodily autonomy & the drug war in general.
Maybe they do & I just haven't seen many. lol I often feel like a loner with my perspective. I literally think heroin should be completely legal for adults to use. I mean if we're gonna have alcohol & do capitalism, then let's do it. Cut out this puritanical bullshit & let me buy & consume what the hell I want.

There's people in America playing with dangerous viruses & pathogens that could escape & kill us all at any moment. And that's fine.
But me wanting pain relief / a nice buzz is a serious "criminal" and "pathological" act. Pffft. God I can't stand all the hypocrisy in this world. I wanna cry some times.

The so-called ‘War on Drugs’ or ‘drug policy’ is not related in any way to preventing or reducing substance-related harm. This much is obvious. If it was about drug-related harm, the suppliers and users of alcohol, tobacco and caffeine would be subject to the same legal sanctions as are the suppliers and users of other drugs. The phenomenon is solely an economic construct. Apart from the astonishingly lucrative black market in illicit substances, the so-called ‘War on Drugs’ allows for the distribution of vast amounts of public money. This being the case, one would assume that the people behind forums such as this would express their outrage in an open and honest manner given their stated apparent concern about people’s welfare. Let this be an open invitation to such people to do just that: acknowledge the true nature of 'drug policy' and express their outrage and horror about the situation.

They did it with crack in the 80’s, OxyContin in the 2000’s, heroin in the 2010’s, fent 2020’s. If there’s money and population control involved, it’s always them.
 
Love how they made crappy 7-oh & kratom products "schedule I" drugs in some states. And then suddenly cychlorphine starts popping up in the street.

If you're an opioid user, America wants you dead & gone.
 
This post needs more traction, especially in the US.

People need to start getting mad, because nothing's changing. Actually it is changing, but for the worse, not for the better.


I look at people in the world around me & everyone's just giddy & carrying on with their day like nothing's fucking happening. Meanwhile, I'm having constant cortisol spikes & can't even sleep because of how much this bullshit hypocrisy pisses me off.
