Welcome back to Bluelight, or to TDS. It sounds like you need some reasons to want to stay off and you haven't created any yet. It's hard not to relapse when you are depressed and hopeless feeling. I know that it is hard not to just sit home and hide but that is really the worst thing you can do right now. Do you have any friends that are also trying to quit?

5 dead (my age), one quit (not 100% sure), one "quit" or is "quitting" every week (really doing daily, nobody just wanna admit it cause of the social stigma), one says every time I meet him "last time 2 weeks ago" when his pupils are like needles and his pale as fuck, anyway u get my point. nobody is really trying to quit like I am. some of my friends are in jail who I would need the most by my side. They got clean through jail and are now better than ever... I am so looking forward to them getting released.
 
so can I refer to you as JD?
anyways, I'm a recovering heroin addict and am 22 years old. got a bit over a year clean now. its tough sometimes man. it does get better. I had my run with suboxone. I hated it. such bad constipation and when my taper got to 1mg a day, the cravings to use came back really badly. I found support/friends through 12 step programs and college/uni. helps pass the time as well when I'm around nonusers and clean people since i don't have the desire to use when around them. I really hope you enjoy your stay here in TDS. :D

Yeah mate, I am younger than you even. I get this anxiety around nonusers that they will see me through and shit like that. I can't act normal with strangers, huge socialphobia. Fucking weed. Made me so paranoid and brought out the schizophrenic genes in my brain... On opiates I feel like all my holes are filled, I feel complete, I can talk to any chick, and dude and my talk just flows and I never run out of words... Thats why I got hooked in the first place, I felt alive for the first time of my life.
 
Hi everyone i'm Eric B and am a long time lurker. Have learnt a lot from the Bluelight forums and really love seeing all the support in TDS. You guys are all great people and I appreciate being part of these forums. Just thought I'd say hi!
 
Hi Eric, and welcome!<3 I've already seen a couple of your posts and appreciated your positivity. I'm glad you found your way here!:)
 
Welcome to TDS Eric B! So glad to have you here, I look forward to seeing you around and hope you stay!
 
whazzup ppl ^o^,
I'm 28 and starting to loose grip in my life.
Ive been using mcat/khat powder for about 8 years now, but only regularly the last 4.

I only snort lines almost every weekend and smoke the occasional bong/mary J, I never injected anyting, I tried/used for a while: LSD, mdma, cocaine, crystal meth, mushrooms but stopped them all. Although I might take some lsd on occasion.

I have been doing all this secretly from my family. My mom caught me smoking ghanja but that was in highschool.

I am high on 'cat' now, lying in my bed sleepless,but tired, after 1,5 g since saturday night after work. It is now monday morning around 2am.

I am in a very weird place in my life at the moment, as I started to combine my 'habit' with weekend long online gaming. I dont get irritated when not using cat, but like I said I gotten into a nasty habit of needing cat when Im gaming.

I feel a bit down at this moment from being awake for almost 48 hours and not eating for 2 days,although I drink alot of Cola/water/tea or whatever . But that is just the comedown/body exhuastion talking. My mind i fully awake and I can feel my eyes are tired as I see slight halucinations, like small objects catching my periperal vision. Its almost like tiny birds flying quickly past me, just outside my focal vision, now and then randomly, its almost like a tennis ball coming towards me that I have to look in that direction. But im used to it.

I have been making bad disisions the last 2 years, loosing a great job as an Analyst Developer because I stole money from the petty cash to fund my habit. I made a good salary and stole cash aswell. They caught me eventually after a year and a half, and gave me immediate dismissal. I was so embarassed I cried and almost gave up on life.

I then had to move out of my apartment after a month as I didn't pay rent because I went on a cat-binge, eating junk food everyday and buying around 1-3 g's a day for a whole month. After this i was broke ,had nowhere to stay and accounts started to pile...

I had some friends staying on a farm just outside town with a big wendy house ,where I stay till this day. It is now almost a year later, and still no progress. I found a delivery job since december, and just making ends mead for the last 3 months.

However, I had to and still am dodging my bill as I just can't pay. My car's licence is a year behind, and I got 2 fines for an expired registration. Bills are just piling up...
I'm just thinking constantly -'F-the-world ,leave me alone I cant pay!'

Even worst of all I just keep making my life harder for myself, by ignoring everyone, I know this....but can't seem to take action, and man-up.

I don't like where I am now in my life, I heard of people relapsing when I was young and could never understand why they do. The whole concept seemed so stupid, I never thought I be that person... These are just some of my problems.

I also just barely make rent and tend to get a gram as soon as I have enough money. I don't buy clothes anymore or proper groceries and basically live day to day.

I was brought up in a very strict household with my dad, my parents devorced when I was 3 months old. And I have a half sister from my moms side. I haven't spoken to them in almost 2 years now. I do miss them, but feel to ashamed to phone.

I am a positive, happy-go-lucky type of guy, and I'm trying hard to get back on track, but before I know it ,I'm medicating again like tonight...with deep feelings of regret and unhappiness.

I will never end myself, I just cannot do that to my family, they don't deserve it.

Hi! Just joined today! But I have been using the site for answers for years. Finally, I decided to share my experiences. I'm 23...I am addicted to Roxys mostly but I will take any opiate available. Last year I had the same problem but would take a lot less pills. I went to rehab for this and came out clean but because of my severe depression I went right back to it about 3 months later. My addiction is very overwhelming and way too expensive. Even if I am not W/D...I still just feel horrible without the pills. I drag my feet til I get the next one. My goal is to try and get back on Suboxone or start Methadone to get off it all. I hope this site helps me through some of the stupid things I ask or need to know about I guess...

Feel free to message me if you want. I don't really know all the rules about this site yet.

Hey hey another Sydney sider :) Awesome to have you on board !!

Thanks trip. Finally had a nice day today, I hit up the beach and worked on my tan. The weather seems to bipolar - one day it's pouring and the next it's find and dandy. At least we had a better summer this year.

Welcome to TDS Eric B! So glad to have you here, I look forward to seeing you around and hope you stay!

Thanks a lot rx_prn. I hope your happy and well!
 
What up man got a pysic. Appoinment wednesday my marriage counsler thinks i am adhd the appointment long story if tou want to here let me know just told my wife of my 4 year cotin habit 9 days clean sober life so boreing i wonder will it get better
 
Good work on 9 days clean Gobbleit up! Life may seem boring now but in the long run getting clean is definitely the better option. It's good to be honest to your wife as I think your significant other deserves to know the truth and not be kept in the dark regarding the person she chose to spend her life with. Keep at it, things will get better.
 
Alrighty.
I'm Panda. I'm 18. I started smoking weed & drinking & messing around with drugs when I was 11. I'd been depressed for a while. When I was 13 I went pretty fucking crazy, tried coke & shrooms & promethazine, all to make a stupid boy like me (which probably comes from my mommy&daddy issues,but anyway) and last i checked he was all twacked out. That summer my parents sent me to a hospital for cutting & drugs & an eating disorder, where they diagnosed me with depression and put me on prozac and said "you're fixed" and sent me on my way. Like that was effective. Right when I got out I ran off to the stupid boy and got high again. Then about a month after that the prozac gave me this goddamned insomnia, and made me start hearing really creepy angry pyromaniac homicidal/suicidal voices. I tried to tell my mother,but she didn't listen. Looking back I dunno why I ever expected her to. But I was already freaking out & irritated so I just took off. I went with some strangers (I did that a lot) and partied, everything after that was kind of a blur. But I ended up back in the hospital, apparently I was gping off that I just wanted to die. Same as last time, they gave me respera something and some more happy pills but after the whole thing with the prozac I absolutely refused to keep taking it.I think I have some kind of chemical imbalance,and all those pills just messed me up even more.Now I just self medicate with pot. But after that I really slowed down. I've done mushrooms once & ecstasy three times since then and I've only got drunk maybe twice. I got kicked out school for abscences,referrals,and having almost no credits. It's not that I'm dumb it's just I can't stand authority lol which is a bad thing I know but hey. I've been through a lot of shit, I'm not gunna let some stuck up bitch in a dyke pantsuit talk down to me, or treat me like I'm less than they are. But right now, right now. I'd say I'm doing quite okay. I've got a wonderful boyfriend who accepts me as complicated and moody as I am and loves me anyway and just wants good for me. I finally figured out what I'm gunna do with my life, or so I think lol.I don't think I could give up the weed though and that may get in the way of things a little. But I'll deal with that when I get there. K well.That's just a little about me.>_____<

Hi Vivens. That's an awesome story and I'm really glad you came out/are coming out of your turbulent past. I'm really happy for you and it's great you have a loving boyfriend who cares about you. Welcome to the forums, there are some really lovely caring people here. I think you've gone through more in your young life than a lot of people. Take care and keep your head up!
 
lmao peace&lasers, pewpewpew.
that made me smile. welcome to TDS. you've been through quite a bit and seem to have found a way to stabilize for the most part. that's fantastic. you're still young and got so much time to change the things you want to change. you don't strike me as an unintelligent chick (referring to your getting booted from school) based on your grammar and punctuation. you communicate well and when you're ready, you can whoop that GED test. I'm sure your struggles and background will allow you to help others in TDS and maybe in a professional setting if you choose to go that route. hope all is well. peace and lasers to you

Best. Sign off. Evar! Pffffffft! :D

blakwidow, mylittleneedle, Eric B, Gobbleit up, Viven_Mortua, hey! Welcome to Bluelight. Stick around, who knows, you might get to enjoy it nearly as much as I do, which is a helluva lot and a very good thing indeed. :)

Oh, and Gobbleit up: 'grats on the 9 days, and yeah, it gets better, trust me ( 11 years clean of heroin here ;) )
 
It's uproar.


Ten years smack addict in new orleans five years on sub with a few slips.
Trying to stay motivated, and failing. Broke can't even take care of my wife
But what are you gonna do? Thank "god" for my loving family or I'd be on skidrow.
I fucked up school many times blew their money and stole much from them but they
Still help me. I'm a piece of shit but I feel the confidence slowly seeping back
And am relearning to love myself. A benzo habit has also gotten in the mix originally
To stay off op8s but now I need them to socialize or be productive.

May the sun shine on all of our asses every day.
