Opioids Opiates masking illness?

(I wont make a million excuses, but: ) I have, "like", no money right now to see a doctor. But, hopefull I have some soon, and then I'll go. But in the meantime...?

make a concentrated salt solution, rinse ur throat with it (don't drink it, just rinse throat), cover up, grab 2 antibiotics if you have leftovers, against both gram+ and- and just wait it out.

I didn't get that one.
The salt solution would do what? My throat is fine. I have no antibiotics laying around because I always use them up, like prescribed.
"Gram + -" ?
Am I not up to date with the lingo or what?

I wanted to write "f*** you", but I won't.
Is there a cure for self hatred (except love, which is not an option for me)?

Yes, getting to know yourself through meditation. Eventually you'll accept your flaws and don't think about yourself all the time, because you already complentated enough when sitting still. It won't make you feel better (or high), but it will make you think neutral/objective instead of depressed and self-centered.

Additionally running a few miles or punching/kicking something lifeless will help !

Edit : Okay you're sick. There is no other way than drinking a lot of tea and sleeping it out (if it is nothing serious).

For some reason, while I am on my steady dose of pain killers, I don't ever notice getting sick with a cold or flu.... I wish I knew the science / logic behind this... Anyone have any solid information? *cough* sekio *cough*?

I havn't had a cold or flu for roughly 2 years, funnily enough. When I did my alcohol detox a couple years ago, I came down with a heavy flu and a serious tooth infection; I'm told this is very common in detox, not just for alcohol, but many other drugs as well. It's very strange.....

This is very interesting as I currently am currently sick for the first time in a several years. During my two years of suboxone and kratom maintenance I didn't get anything more than a runny nose.
