I've liked opiates for a long time (I loved viacodin, for got hooked by coworkers) and almost a year ago I tried heroin for the first time even though I agreed NEVER to.
Started off fine, my partner introduced me to it. We had the money to support our habits and things were dandy. Slowly we started running out of consistent money and he started stealing from his parents to feed our habits. While I didn't do the stealing, I knew exactly what was going on so I'm just as guilty.
Well here we are now, work wasn't consistent and his parents got fed up. They've been begging him for months to go to rehab. He finally agreed. So he's there detoxing and I'm at his parents house dextoxing myself (no suboxone or anything available) and absolutely MISERABLE! The worst part is they have no idea that I use. I used fake piss to pass a test when they had suspicions. I want SO BADLY to run to the city and get some but it's literally not possible as it's a 3 hour adventure from where we live and they will not be cool with that.
Does anyone have any advice to make my detox better? I'm dealing with stomach issues, arms feel jittery and I feel like I have to put weight on them, and I can't sleep. It's been 2 days. I'm miserable! Please help. The only person aside from dealer that knows that I use is my partner who is in rehab and I obviously can't talk to him about it!
 
The only thing in your situation that i think would help, if you can't get anything is loperamide(immodium, the little green pills, not gelcaps). Try taking 6-12 of these. Also, drink lots of water, take a multi vitamin, vit b6, protein shake, bananas, and lots of hot baths or showers. Good luck, and hang in there, only 2-3 days left of the rough stuff.
 
The loperamide usually takes 1-3hrs to fully kick in. So don't be taking more because you aren't feeling it. Dont take it for more than 2-3 days either.
 
Hi,
That sounds horrible. i am about to do similar. I have read from others on here that DXM which is just cough syrup from any drug store

Good luck, Everyone told me I should tell my family so they can help and hold me accountable. I told only my brother and no one else, but maybe that could help. Stay Strong. Everyone says the worst is the first few days. so focus on that. Then if getting to the city is 3 hour ordeal then that is good too. I am rooting for you
 
Thanks for your advice! Today wds aren't as bad, but mentally I can't stop thinking about it. I would stick a needle in my forehead right now if it would make me feel better. ? This is going to be tough. I have no way of getting anything, but trust me I've tried to think of any possible way.
 
Hey Nashs, welcome to Bluelight :)

So sorry to hear about your situation. I think the best thing for you to do is to head over to Sober Living and post your question there. We have a lot of knowledgeable and experienced regulars there who I'm sure will be able to offer you some great advice.

All the best,
