Whats up brothers n sisters, my name is Mark and I've been a member of BL (under various names) since I was like 16 (now 24) and these forums have literally saved my life a couple times. It's great to be back on here and "see" some of the same peeps I remember since my teenage years still alive and kickin'. Think its great that there is supposed to be a "Recovery" forum starting up soon, I'd like very much to be a part of that. I've been a garbage can all my life, from psychonaht to homeless junky I've done ever drug known to man and finally came to the conclusion that I am in fact an addict and that I no longer wish to live that way. Happy to say I have 6 months clean from EVERYTHING for the first time in my life and yes it is a struggle but beautiful beyond words as well. Anyway, thanks for the welcome guys n gals.

I really look forward to getting to know you and hearing your thoughts as we develop the Recovery forum. Congrats on the 6 months!:)
 
Whats up im RUBEN95. I came across this by trying to look up norco pills. Im trying to get off these mothafuckers now. I never write in a journal or nothin like that,but, this shit helps to clear my mind and shit.. so whats crackin
 
Hi Ruben, glad you found us. Other Drugs will be a great forum for you for taper schedules, withdrawal meds, things like that. TDS is here for you whenever you need some support, a bit of a vent, just some idle chat really, whatever. Lots of us have been or are going through that right now so you've come to a great place.

Welcome aboard. :)
 
I am 30 years old and have been taking pills since I was 16. So far I have been lucky and careful. Worst things that have happened is some wicked withdrawals from pain medications. I deal with it, take care of my body, eat good food, hydrate, take my milk thistle and if I get restless legs, a nice dose of magnesium. Of course, Green Tea, ahem, helps me through it best of all. I am an addict, but not a full blown one because I've kept it in check. I have maybe a week out of a month I enjoy my pain pills. Always try to taper but when I don't. God help me. I feel like I'm dying. Tramadol is one I am prescribed and it has a worse withdrawal to me then hydrocodone. (Drools)
I am who I am and what I am, but I read and research and I don't take anything near what some take. But I'm here, because I know at some point I'll need help and support when I withdraw again and all that. Maybe some advice I don't have. Thanks guys. You can call me Starr.
 
Tds

So i have no idea where to make a new thread until i saw this place. I am in no need of any HR advice, and although i probably am qualified in a certain (benzo) department, It's best i don't. (note to self) Im currently on olanzapine which for those that don't know is an anti-psycotic. Im making a new thread on TDS because i think if im going to say jack about shit then this is the only place for it.

So a big hello to all you TDS's and feel free to hlp me out here by saying hi or you can ask away because im not very good at long speech's <3

Either way right now ;)
 
Not :-)

Co-Occurring disorders

Hello, my name is Fayt. I am a recovering addict. My DOC being Opiates. Though I am a trash can and did anything else if my DOC wasnt available. I am diagnosed with PTSD and Panic disorder. I am also diagnosed BPD an anti social personality by my psychiatrist/addiction specialist, psychologist and therapist. They also say I have depression. I feel unwilling to accept this. Im not depressed, I just don't want to be around people. I like it much better being alone. I see nothing wrong with being a recluse(sp). I don't know how to socialize without sayingthe wrong thing. I have a hard time feeling any emotions so I couldn't care less if I make someone cry. At times I will be consumed by shame and guilt, but it won't last. I have a hard time making decisions because It doesn't matter one way or the other to me. Instead I try to figure out which is the right decision. I'll get confused, maybe irritated because I don't feel anything towards either decision. Im done here.
 
wow, love.

that was a strong entrance. nice work. and i hope you are not done here.
 
Hows it going bluelight! Well my name is Draven I'm from Cali. 26 years old and engaged to my beautiful girl. I am struggling with addiction but have been clean for 2 years. I don't get mad cravings but I definitely feel depressed and miss being on Crystal Meth. I have been using for 10 years on and off and I'm happy that I've been off of it. I'm supplementing with Tyrosine and St. Johns Wart. And some days are better than others but lately it just seems like all I want to do is sleep all day. I don't want to go to the gym or look for a job. My motivation is just not there and the hardest part is being in a relationship and my fiance having to deal with me being depressed and not wanting to do anything but dwell on it. I don't want to go back to Meth.. but I fear that if I stay like this I am gonna lose my mind and just run away and go back. I'm here to learn about other things that will help me that I can take and do to help me. I'm taking ECA and going walking during the day but even ECA really isn't doing much but upsetting my stomach. I have a high tolerance to stimulants and I've taken a lot of fat burners/energy supplements with no results. They just make me nauseous and lethargic. If anyone has any advice I would definitely appreciate it! I just want something that will benefit me in the long run! Thank you!
