Goin away to kick, thanks guys

Hmm well I figured I'd update for Jake since he can't access a computer right now.

This thread was about him going to detox, and we already covered that he went in for a day and it was too much bullshit to deal with so he left.

I meant to update for him a few days ago but after Jake came home, he had a discussion with his parents and they offered to pay for a detox (the ones he was doing before were the cheap/low class free ones). I think its actually a rehab and detox combined, although I don't recall the details too specifically. But at least he has the support of his dad this time and is not doing it alone, so I do very much wish him the best.

This is his 3rd time in detox I think in the last couple of months, but you know the saying "3s a charm" so maybe this will be it. As much as the kid asks for help around here he's helped me alot myself over the phone, we've helped each other, and I really fucking hope he can stay the hell away from all this shit. He's a really smart kid, he just doesn't have any social support at all. And I really hope his dad is being easy on him.

Anyway Jake, we will NEVER stop rooting for you bro. Update this thread as soon as you get out please. People on here care about you man, myself included.

Miss you homey ,

stay up and stay clean dude - eeach time down remember what we said how it's harder and bleaker -- staying down just seems that much easier , losing everything becomes nothing.
 
proud of you jake!!!! I know it took a lot of courage to come clean to your folks. Those kinds of hurdles, the big ones, make all the littler ones so much easier to conquer.

you have many, many people on your side. Even though we are merely screen names on the Internet, we still really, really care <3
 
hey guys just got back from detox.................man this is fuckin hard still
 
Good Jake

YO Jake it's your boy djd from dirty south jerz.. I really haven't been on in quite a while......glad to hear your getting clean...I went to integrity house in north jersey for six months from July to February....It was a therapeutic community...It had its Ups and downs as does everything else....But it gave me 6 months in a safe haven to get my sleep back and all my physical ailments back healthy....I'm the same age as you as we discussed before....30 is right around the corner and I believe you would like to have some sort of a life as do I...And Getting High isn't cutting it anymore....It's too damn expensive and and its too damn dangerous....Getting clean will put you on the path to finding a career a nice girl, getting in good graces with your family etc....There's nothing glamarous about a full-blown heroin addiciton....No matter how good it feels you'll always have those extreme lows that come with it....It all comes down to how bad you want it...Remember this...PRESENT CHOICES AFFECT FUTURE LIVING...Especially if the present decisions have a chance of getting you in more trouble...Finding a job with A criminal record (felonies) is super hard right now, even for people that have College Educations. Stay strong man and Fight it with everything you got so you can get your self respect and dignity back, BECAUSE I KNOW FOR DAMN SURE, when i was squirting up in my arm I hated myself....Best Wishes...:) I hope you get out everything you need!
 
Jake I don't know what the specifics are about your situation, but if at least one thing doesn't change from your other attempts then you'll be more likely to go back to your previous behaviour. It's not always about trying over and over to get things right; rather to refine and adapt based on the effectiveness of our choices.

You may need to go through some pain, if it has been suppressed over time. That's okay and in reality the avoidance is more painful than pain itself after a certain point.

I run away from things that bother me. Family issues, finances, future, etc. I try to ignore things until they go away, but they rarely ever do.

All the best keep posting man <3

It may take at least a week or two for the acute withdrawal to be over, but from there on, if you stay off of full agonist opiates, it'll be a lot easier, and things will get smoother. Do all you can to keep it that way; it'll always be harder to have to repeat the entire acute withdrawals than if you just keep off of them now, so don't let your mind come up with some elaborate excuse for relapsing. Remember how far you're into sobriety, and realize that the more time that goes by, the better you feel.
 
Jake where the hell yah been man? No calls in a while and haven't seen you around here either.

I know this was your third time at detox in like the last couple months and I saw you came home sick so I'm curious whats going on. I knew 4 days wouldn't be long enough. A week wasn't even enough for me when I went in I had to do 13 days and I was sick right up untill the 12th day.

I'm assuming you went back to using bro and you shouldn't be ashamed if thats what happened. Noone is here to judge man and addiction is a serious disease. Especially when its to opiates lol. Anyway dude give me a call or post here I'm curious to hear what happened. I'm actually more curious what happened with your parents because you said this time you told your dad and I'm wondering if they got you on lockdown now or something. Hollar bro, ttyl.
