Hi there, I have come across BL while searching for some details of what to expect from opiate withdrawal. There is great info on here and I looking forward to gaining and in some way sharing some knowledge and experiences.
I'm a long term weed user, use to smoke, but now that I'm over 40 am more so into tinctures and edibles. These days I more so use weed for pain rather than a buzz.
I worked in the public adult literacy domain for many years until at age 35 being diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, which is an incredibly painful condition. After over 30 surgeries in about 3 years I found myself addicted to oxycodene, OxyContin, Endone (yes all same same), codeine and have soon to face that I need to get off these. But more so will need an alternative.
I have a interest in medical marijuana, yoga, meditation.
I'm in 2 minds if I should start shooting up my pills for better effect but that scares me. I also take lyrica, but that is not so good of a feeling.
Anyway, nice to meet you all, have a great day !
