Hi lightitup, glad you've decided to start posting more often in here :)
And it's so good to hear that TDS has been able to help you. I wish you all the best for your journey to get clean from opiates <3
 
Introducing myself to The Dark Side..

Hi there, I'm PercaD. Or just Dee, I suppose. I'm not new to this site, I seem drawn by all postings, and find comfort from a few. This, however, is MY first post. Thank you to all who post before me; your courage is astounding at times. I only hope that I can find the same within myself, because I believe this will be theraputic (sp?) in general, and conducive to my own sanity.. I am admittedly addicted to painkillers. And this ride is one that I try constantly to get off of, but always seem to hop right back on when it suits me.

Hi Dee, I'm glad you decided to start posting in here :)
I look forward to reading more from you. Where are you at with your addiction at the moment? Are you trying to quit? As you have probably seen already, there is a lot of support in here, I hope you find what you're looking for.
Enjoy! <3
 
I do not think I have read this thread. I thought it was something else by the title.

Okay.

Hi, I am Jack. 27 years old. Opioid dependent for five years. Been doing well with my addictions. I now have an improvised maintenance system in place which keeps me well, while keeping all bad drugs away. I went vegan three months ago, and am very happy about it. I feel well enough to gain control of my life and actually get out there. This is mainly due to the knowledge and positive outlook I have gained through Bluelight. Good people. I love you all <3
 
Hi, Im Niels. 21 yo male from Denmark. Ive decided to pop in to find some advice for what to do instead of doing drugs. Im currently kicking a habbit. Further reading below :)

For the past years Ive been hanging out in PD and ADD mostly. After realizing my ketamine addiction and habitual benzo binges over the past 1-2 years, I decided to flush my entire stash, which also includes benzoes, psychedelics and whathaveyou. I only kept about 500 mg 2C-B out of quite a big collection. This is the most beneign drug Ive ever encountered, and I just couldnt make myself do it hehe.

Ive never had any problems keeping a job/education. I just got worried. And actually I feel less stressed than I have in years. Just wanted to share <3
 
Hey Bluelighters!

Hey Bluelighters and noobie Greenlighters hehe like myself :p
I'm a 23rd old alcoholic, also most died from panchritis diease and liver damage and almot died duing 3 seizures in withdrawl I think, alcoho is evil, but thanks to Anatbuse I'm clean from alcohol for over a year now,
but I still hate being sober therefor I abuse cannabis(if thats even possible) and play with poppy tea rarely rarely, and dable in a range of RC chemicals often
and doctors diazepam yummy


guess this should be a good forum for me :)
 
^^ Hey mate, you've come to the right place :)
Welcome to The Dark Side!
That is so awesome to hear you've been sober for over a year, good work! <3
 
I have mostly tried to stay away from here because some of the stuff I read in here (tds) I dont like to think about.
Having a really rough period of alcohol abuse at the moment and doing things I regret.
I think I can find some inspiration here though... maybe
30 yrs old now
One of my friends keeps sending me a you tube link to "A message to you Rudy" by the specials I think he's trying to tell me something.
 
^^ Hey mate, yeah I know things can be a little bit heavy here in TDS sometimes but it's mostly good and helpful stuff :)
Sorry to hear about your troubles with drinking, I know all about that, I'm an alcoholic too. Where are you at with it now? Are you wanting to quit? Have you had any help with it in the past?
Check out our TDS Alcoholism thread for a lot of helpful advice and support from fellow alco's and ex-drinkers.
 
I went to see someone last year but not an AOD counsellor. She was helpful but ended up suggesting I go to a specialist.
I dont want to quit but I dont want to be permanently hungover either.
I am trying to claw my life back into balance at the moment.
I just want to have more alcohol free days and drink less when I do indulge.
I will check out the alco thread.
 
^^ That sounds exactly like my situation mate. If you ever want to talk about it, PM me <3
 
Greetings fellow earthlings!
I tried my best to write something proper and useful but basically I had a shit childhood, which led to Posttraumatic stress disorder which led to pill abuse and ended in addiction (ohh the cliché) I'm now 19 days sober and just trying to gain somewhat of a life.
Wish me well.
 
Howdy folka. Some of you guys round here know me but most of you probably don't. I'm 30 and live NE Arkansas. I've suffered with depression and general anxiety for the better part of my life. I've been on-and-off with them both for a long time. I have, and am currently, taking several medications for my condition. I was attending school to major in psychology and was finishing up my associate degree during a summer term when I had a major auto accident. I broke 13 bones including my neck, back, pelvis, both legs and ankles, etc. It was a rough one. Afterwards I became addicted to opiates and dealt with a 3 year, very serious battle which nearly cost me my life in a million ways. I've got things under control as of the last year and am doing MUCH better. I have so much experience with addiction and dealing with emotional issues and chronic pain. I'm attending school again and things are going up from here. If anyone ever needs to talk about ANYTHING, PM me anytime....

^^ Hi burntserkits :)
Thanks for the introduction, I have certainly seen you around TDS. And I look forward to seeing more of you around here!
It's great to hear that you're back on top of things after having been through so much adversity. That shows true courage and strength. I'm sure you've got a lot of invaluable stories and advice from your experiences to share with others on here <3

Oh, and I'm a Psychology student as well :)
 
^Buddha said life is suffering and momma said there'd be days like this. Let me tell ya, they weren't kidding either! I just try and make the best of everything that comes my way. My main objective with TDS has always been to share my experiences with those who feel alone and without hope. It gives me great joy to brighten the day and lighten the load of someone I can empathize with. It's mutually therapeutic and even academic for me in many ways. I have been in here when I was self-loathing, worn down and lost and I know how low it can feel. It's wonderful when people who don't know you in any form or fashion take time from their own problems to wish you the best or offer some caring words of encouragement. I just hope I can be that person for many others here at TDS and in life as a whole. You guys will be seeing plenty of me...promise.
