I think you go in like 3-4 times a dayCongrats man im happy you have this safer alternative. Wish they did this in the US i would totally opt to go on Morphine over this damn Bupe. Mean it is working for me but i would love to have that warm fuzzy glow when the Morphine hits each day, im pretty jealous. What kinda dosing do they give you with the IV Heroin program, im assuming you go back more than once a day cuz of the duration.
Up to three times, depending on how fast you metabolize the diamorph.I think you go in like 3-4 times a day
In the US they subscribe to the belief that euphoria is an unwanted side effect of maintainance. I think the field is currently adverse to the idea of beingg stably dependant on opioids being seen as anything but a probkem. We are at the swing in the pendulum where fentanyl is the terror and it colors the miod.The only thing that frustrates me is how backwards thinking the US is in this regard. Shitboxone is still prescribed over there even though the rate of relapse is demonstrably high, since bupe isn't even a full agonist and doesn't provide most addicts with the typical opiated feeling that they crave so much.
Our doctors have a completely different mentality. They believe that we opioid addicts MUST feel mentally well in order to not relapse. That's why my doc always asks me if the dose I received the day before was enough to make me feel good. Here in Germany we patients decide how much (Levo)methadone/Morphine/Diamorphine we receive and not the doctor. There is no upper limit anymore since the legislation was changed in 2017.In the US they subscribe to the belief that euphoria is an unwanted side effect of maintainance.

Oh man. Here they just throw you in jail, problem solved!Our doctors have a completely different mentality. They believe that we opioid addicts MUST feel mentally well in order to not relapse.

Yep, it's a sad state of affairs. I don't have any faith in the political system, but something needs to change.Oh man. Here they just throw you in jail, problem solved!![]()
Yeah... no confidence.Yep, it's a sad state of affairs. I don't have any faith in the political system, but something needs to change.
I'm shooting for Alaska after I well myself. But, I understand, "quit or die". Eventually for me it boiled down to that. I didn't have any help aside from emotional support from my brother. I ended up CT and then Kratom instead of maintenance. 2 reason, shorter half life of kratom and its on my own terms. But, if I spoke German I'd be there as of 2016... thank God they take care of there own. Talk about, "Germany first"... not speaking about nationalism here.@JimBobWho?
We actually have an american here in our clinic who applied for a job in Germany in order to move here and get treatment because there was no such thing as maintenance where he lived (somewhere in Pennsylvania if I remember correctly) and he basically had the choice between killing himself or start a new life somewhere else. I asked him why he didn't simply move to another state but he told me that the regulations are just too strict and addicts are treated like trash (furthermore, his insurance didn't want to pay for his treatment. An impossibility here in Germany!!! Over here ALL insurance companies are FORCED by law to pay for maintenance therapy). It's sad that someone has to take such drastic steps just to be treated for his addiction in a humane way.
He is happy now though. He has a well paying job in the IT industry, a social circle, our health care system is one of the best in the world (where you don't need to pay $300 for fucking oxygen), and labor rights are so strong here that he can't get easily fired like in the US. He visits his family in the US four times a year and gets a take home script which covers him for that duration. It's so much easier here for him.
If anyone is as desperate as my dear friend is and really has no other options, shoot me a message and I'll see what I can do. Perhaps I can help you find a job because once you get a job offer here, everything else becomes a cakewalk. Americans easily get a residence permit here and as soon as you have a job you'll be automatically insured and can then immediately receive treatment. See, you don't even need to have german citizenship. A residence permit is enough![]()
Most of us speak english pretty well, so you wouldn't really have any problem around here. I wish you all the best though. Alaska has a beautiful landscape and fascinating wildlife. I made a round trip through California once, but Alaska is a state I definitely have to visit in the near future (after I have renewed my driver's licence). Take careBut, if I spoke German I'd be there as of 2016
Good to replace street drug with legal pharma component Hexen...but....been two times on that capsules....Listen-never i.v. this shit.Abrupt withwrawl from this is at least two weaks acute phase and symptoms are much heaviear to endure,than purest H......personaly never would go third time in such program.I hope,that it could be good for u......just follow the instuction of ur doctor and progressively with his/her support lower ur dose as quick as possible........just take care and wish u sucess to ur way to recovery:hear4t:Monday will be my first day going into maintenance therapy where I'll be getting Substitol (Morphine). Finally my head will be free so I can do some of the old stuff that I used to do before my addiction consumed my entire time. I can go back to reading books, produce electronic music, focus on starting my own business.
I'm just sick and tired of the dope lifestyle. I'm sick of playing the waiting game, sick of shooting/smoking garbage, sick of scamming innocent people on ebay to finance my habit and ofc I'm sick of being sick. Goodbye Heroin and goodbye to that awful, stressful and frantic lifestyle that I used to have. I'll never miss you.
Legalize all drugs!
P.S.: if I behave well I might become eligible for take-home, but until then I have to show up every morning (which I will gladly do). A new chapter in my life has begun. Wish me the best ^^
Shooting pills is never a good idea. I'm content with my oral morphine. Lasts me 24h and I have no craving at all.Good to replace street drug with legal pharma component Hexen...but....been two times on that capsules....Listen-never i.v. this shit.Abrupt withwrawl from this is at least two weaks acute phase and symptoms are much heaviear to endure,than purest H......personaly never would go third time in such program.I hope,that it could be good for u......just follow the instuction of ur doctor and progressively with his/her support lower ur dose as quick as possible........just take care and wish u sucess to ur way to recovery:hear4t:

That's the same thought that enters my mind every time I enter the train after leaving the doctor's office and the morphine starts to kick in. I get a big, fat, content smile while thinking "oh man, life is gOOooOoodLife is really worth living and you know it.
That's a Godsend if you're addicted asf and homeless, gives u the option to get ur life back. The morphine option is amazing too. Do you have to pay anything to be on the program? Or it's free? Damn, I envy European 1st world countries.Up to three times, depending on how fast you metabolize the diamorph.
