Been trying to kick this gnarly one for a hot minute. Stubborn mf'er.

Been hacking up a lung like crazy for a week. Gargling with sea salt water to help clear stuff. Clearing pores with salicylic acid shampoo and taking steps to detox skin. Feel pores shrinking. Grossed out. Human body is disgusting.

Throat/chest still yucky. Stomach is in a lot of pain. Spent like 4 or 5 days sick, sleeping, feeling like muscles atrophied but know it's from detox.

Was considering drinking baking soda water but might be too much. Ate yogurt. Need more water.

Need stomach to feel better but don't want to flood my system with too much craziness bc I have a hair test coming... Unless that won't show... In which case bring it on but also need it to be over quick... Got real life to handle ASAP and the sooner all this is over the better...

Yogurt not helping much.
 
I have severe stimulant use disorder and I have been strung out before but my withdrawals were usually mental aside from fatigue or if I’m manic. Then again, I know I didn’t have fent in mine. I only used the same dealer when I used meth and it was never laced.

Sounds like an acute detox center could be easier. That actually is my recommendation just because I understand some of them but these symptoms a lot of them I never got. We are all different but idk I guess I just know if I was feeling that bad I would likely end up giving in eventually so I guess that’s why I suggest that.

I know the pain of stimulant addiction all too well. I’ve done drugs sadly for 25 years and most of it has been opiates and stims though I kicked opiates pretty much. I take suboxone. You don’t sound like you are going thru it mentally but I’m guessing you just aren’t comfortable sharing publicly. Or maybe you’re tough like that:)

Stimulants were my Achilles heal and still are a thorn in my side meaning I skipped a few weeks ago and got some adhd meds and had a binge and it was terrible. Seems like the side effects get worse and worse and it’s almost like it’s all side effects now.

I know each abuse from stimulants is an infraction on our brain structure and over time we can really mess up our brains of course. People have been warning me sense I was a kid and now I finally see that drugs really do mess up the brain when abused too often or too much.

This last binge I never get psychosis naturally and very rarely with stims. Well I had instant psychosis and what’s worse is I was off the stimulants for maybe 5 days after a binge when I haven’t used in a long time so I’m not coming off a daily use or anything like that.

Well I ended up vacating my ops supervisor I just started a few weeks prior with excellent pay and man I got paranoid that people were talking about me and they would be whispering while looking at me huddled and idk I had psychosis without drugs and ran out the building. And I don’t scare easily but the psychosis me isn’t me. And I Didn’t run because I was scared of getting hurt. I ran because I thought that we were working with cops and they were going to arrest me. Freaking crazy that I gave up my job like that.

So now I’m back to square one. Each infraction makes it worse and I didn’t notice it for maybe two years of binging but others did way before in at didn’t believe them

Good luck man and please consider at least seeing an urgent care dr for comfort meds/bloodwork maybe. Idk. Just one of the things that is good about medically supervised detox is they usually do a physical too and check organ functions etc. just good to do after making the decision to free yourself.

I hope this doesn’t come off in any other way than kindness and care. Best wishes my friend

Also not trying to scare you but have you been having pain in your muscles at all without working out?
 
Decent quality multivitamin everyday.
Rehydrate yourself with simple shit like Gatorade.
Eat.. some high calorie meals.. i wouldn't even worry about super healthy at first.. calories.. your fav mack and cheese and just pound it. Stomach will come around in two seconds.. If you haven't been eating your likely pretty much starving.. WO the appetite. Causes a weird situation that sounds like what you may be going through.

keep sleeping.. then aerobic exercise will treat your mind. If you eat sleep and exercise your high will be much better, your life will be much better and you can maintain functional use.

just some things to consider.
 
Grossed out. Human body is disgusting.

LOL yeah I can relate

During the acute phase of WDs I find that my sense of smell becomes extremely sensitive, which is really unfortunate because it coincides with a period of intense shitting and puking and sweating. It's like why did my nose decide to become this turbo sensory device right when I'm physically at my worst and stinkiest?!

Good luck with it all and I hope your stomach settles soon.
 
Calm down. Eat ! , drink water and take vitamines and minerals. Shower and than go to hospital and try to score something like tizanidine, any benzos,maybe pregabalin. I would suggest low dose opioid+paracetamol and nsaid but in your case it's risky. If stomach pain persist also mention stomach problems. Than go home, take meds, try to drink and eat but u need to sleep. If u like weed, use it. And after this go and do your responsibilities.
Take benzos before, dose that treats anxiety. Take them with u in case of psychotic episode.
