"I'm stopping your methadone & Valium Script" Unless you suck me off.

Congrats on kicking the done Brimz, its hard to comprehend how toxic that stuff is till you are off it -feels way better not being totally saturated with that stuff. Its a life saver but a toxic one. No looking back now dude, onward and upwards -it only gets better from here on out.

Hiya Owen. Not used to see ming you round these parts.
How are you doing?

Would like to try benzos but I've read that if you become addicted n have any mental health issues the symptoms can be made worse. I tried once, to get benzos but was just given Mirtazaipine which made me angry as hell so I went back to citralopram.
In a way I'm glad that I wasn't offered benzos.

I'm good if pretty stressed thanks, yourself?

I tend not to post in any sections other than recovery support these days because I find it triggering. For some insane reason hearing about people getting benzo scripts makes me jealous even though I have one myself (to help me get off them), don't want to be involved with them at all any more and could have thousands of the fuckers delivered to my doorstep tomorrow if I wanted.

Just having a little mooch around see what's going on though seeing as I am indeed a UK citizen!

Whilst benzos are very shitty, coming of citalopram is supposedly no walk in the park either. Everyone and their dog seems to be on it in this country these days, know so many people that have been on it at some point.

Seems to be the go to option for pretty much any mental health condition you mention to a doctor, just whip out the citalopram script and send them packing....
 
Yup, moved down to Bristol to do a degree after spending five years or so living in London and working as a chef. Born and raised on the mean streets of Surrey8) and spent a brief spell living in Leicester.

You can call me Owain btw, that's my real name. The account monicker was set up in the folly of youth when I used to DJ under that title now and again.

I like recovery support too, although it would be nice to get to know a few people knocking around in EADD these days. Already met one sound BL'er that way recently.
 
There is indeed, my father is Welsh (although he speaks with an English accent). He's welsh on his mum's side of the family, they were old school and made his parents return from England to Wales to ensure he was born Welsh and raised there for the first few years of his life! There's a bit of Greek in that side of the bloodline too so I liike to think of myself as a bit of a ladykiller like Tom Jones lol8)

I've only ever been called by the English pronounciation though, unless I go to Wales in which case they pronounce it the welsh way irrespective of how you spell your name just because of the accent.

You a boyo then?
 
I'm not no but have lived in an especially Welsh part of Wales for the last decade or so now. There are particular and specific ties to Owain Glyndŵr here but I won't get too specific on them... despite having mentioned where I live before. No need to rub it in. So, erm, no but I am fairly familiar with one Owain in particular. I also have Welsh ancestry on my mother's side but am actually a Laaaaahndarn boy myself... long time ago mind. I count myself a citizen of the British Isles and don't really relate to any particular region.
 
Where from in London? Spent five years living there before moving down to Bristol in September. I'm from Guildford originally though.
 
Erm... depends on how you define "from" really. For this asking I'll say... Lewisham. I'll also say I left London at a very young age and have but one single memory from those parts. Still gotta lotta family around that general area though.
 
Ah seen, I went to Lewisham college to do my generally not very qualified in professional cookery. Not my favourite part of London if I'm honest!
 
I find it weird that you've never been back since, most people have visited London simpply because it's the capital. Not slating you or anything! (nice little unintentional welsh reference there).
 
I've been back plenty times - as I said I have numerous relatives there and used to stay... around there every summer for the duration of the school holidays. Have been back numerous times since. I've just never lived there since.

Slate I am quite familiar with. It was actually mostly slate mining that was big bizniz around these parts afaik. It certainly is dotted about the place everywhere you care to look.
 
Ok, just got confused by you saying Lewisham was the place your only London memory was formed. Clearly you meant in relation to the period you lived there after birth.
 
Yeah, wasn't so very clear was I? 8)

I did indeed mean my one and only memory from that period of my life (ie a proper young 'un - babe in arms kinda thang). Specifically it is a memory of getting stuck in a giant bronze (? in my memory it is bronze anyway) dragon that was in Lewisham shopping centre. It was Xmas and I was bundled up in layers of clothes hence getting stuck. You crawled up the dragons arse and came out of its mouth. I got stuck right at the back of the throat. Very vivid memory so it is which is quite surprising given how young I was at the time. Was wearing reigns as I recall. My mother had a thing for reigns which lasted for several years to come.

(she wasn't holding the reigns whilst i crawled up the bronze dragon's arse - which i suspect to be the very first time that sentence has ever been written by anybody ever)

Hahahahaha "not 'slating ' you."
I 'm from North Wales. Us Welsh don't mind the p*** taken our of us we'rehard y'know?! We gotta be, from s******* all the sheep!

My family came from a place called Bala n some of them never knew a word of English until they were 16. I hardly kniw any Welsh tho. A completely embarrassment to the country I am waaaa!!! haha

CYMRU!!!!

Nice, best of the celts for sure.

That's mental about the language thing, didn't realise there were places in wales like that which existed in the 20th century. I think it's good the way Welsh lessons are compulsory in schools up to a certain age now to ensure the ongoing survival of the language.

Only been there a couple of times in the last decade. A few raves in the valleys in the mid noughties then did a treking weekend in Snowdonia this time two years ago:

(I'm not in the photo it's one I took on the North face of Tryffan)

There certainly were for much of the 20th Century, not so sure that it would still be the case now - Welsh is still the first language for many but English is spoken by just about everybody (or can be spoken anyway - many still choose to speak Welsh in general day-to-day life and that's the case with young people as well as the auld folk you might expect it from more - Welsh is seen as a very kewl thing to speak around these parts certainly (I'm in quite a Welsh bit of Wales)). I know my mother couldn't speak English when she started school and moved to England which really held her back as she kinda had to pick English up as she went along.

I see you managed to find one of those rare nice days in Wales for the pic too - barely even drizzling which would make that high summer surely? :D

The Devil's kitchen.

That's be the place I was trying to think of the name of in Gibberings recently. Very pretty place is The Devil's Kitchen. Barely a tormented soul or pitchfork in sight but stunning scenery <3

I live quite close to it so was one of the places I got taken to when doing "The Tour" with family when I first moved here or used to come visit.
