hello from down under

Yeh moderation is the key. I think now that you have noticed your appearance and attitudes changing gavatron you should make a big effort to moderate your intake, which is always easier said than done.

As my tolerance to opiates has grown I have noticed things in life which used to produce an endorphin rush and make me happy no longer really do (exercising, my girlfriend, other friends, going to the beach, ect). I have become apathetic and I hate it. When I started doing opiates the only negative side effects I read about was constipation (which I don't get) and addiction (which I though was just the cravings), I had no idea it would build a tolerance within to natural fun and happiness. Anyway today I start cutting down. Off morphine and oxy and onto codeine, then I'll get off that as well.

I'm excited for the future. Thanks for the push gavatron, I've been meaning to do this for awhile.

good stuff mate,thanks for your reply...i hope that your plan of attack on the opiates work out.hop that your partner ( if still in relationship) supports you in your sttuggles,and you have a good support group ie:family and friends to help you.. Either way for what its worth id like to keep in touch and offer any support that i can...aswell as bl offcourse. Unfortunately for me im going to have to just stop straight up ,come down like a brick off a highrise for a few days and leave this behind me..some friends ill have to part with,some just limit my contact for a while.it has become such a part of who i am tho,and the other hard part i face is my addiction to being the YES man,and the percs associated with it.its quite empowering ,however i often wonder who my true friends are..stay in touch mate! All the best.hit the gym,surf or go to beach..whatever it is that you recall that in the past would entertain you keep busy and chin up.theres a bright future just around the corner.

Cheers man. My GF and parents ect don't actually know about my opiate history, which is an obvious sign that I'm not too proud of it. I have different friend circles, some which understand and I've talked to them about it but they don't really offer support, and the other which wouldn't understand and therefore I haven't mentioned it.

But in all serious my situation isn't at all bad. My life is going ok and all is well, I just want to get off the pills before that changes (and the fact I don't want to have to keep taking pills to ward off nausea ect). I'll probably have more energy to put into life once off opiates as well as they are quite sedating.

I hope your journey goes smoothly getting clean. Parting with friends can be very hard but I do agree that in some cases it has to be done. I have a group of friends and when around them the pull to do newer, bigger and better drugs is always present. Make sure you get all the help you need and stay physically and mentally active. For me personally I find cravings are worst when I'm bored (or legitimate cravings if I am in pain).
 
hello again mate. The double lifes a hard one to live and im sure thats wearing u out too.like u said,boardem is a trigger for me,having it on tap doesnt help things.ill have to give up the luxuries in life and put an end to it.im seeing psych,as well as counselling w drugarm.early days yet so c how we go.im guessing u have a professional career by previous posts,reading alot of other posts on bl im amazed at the variety of people,or the variety of socio-economic people addiction can grab j hold of.we're all human h guess.on another note i wouldnt mind a sundy arvo session.( im fucking hopeless)
