Opioids Please help me distract myself during opioid cold turkey?

[Zopiclone bandit]

Haha sorry to hear that, but to be honest cold turkey is not a good option

Lucky I was in the shower tbh or it would have been a right job to clean myself up.
Every time I get dopesick my stomach gives me Hell, my backside just turns itself into some kinda industrial hosepipe & I can go to the toilet at the very least 6 times in a day.

What is your opiate of choice to use?

Before I was smoking on foil for 4 years, now it's been like a year and half since I started sniffing, I sniffed a heroin that comes wrapped in paper, 1 dose in the morning.

but when I feel like a long time has passed I'll check the clock and it's been like 6 minutes.

LOLOLOL

Than I ran to pharmacy to buy something to raise dopamine and sleep, so bough four pills of tramadol each containing tramadol 37.5mg, than after lunch I bought four more, so total of 8 tramadol pills(containing 37.5mgtramadol) and 1 heroine dose in the morning, I was sleeping just woke up and came browsing straight to web

I have no idea who you are, my phone isn't some kind of Junkie Network Chat feature.

@ChemicallyEnhanced and myself have a bit of History, after some time you get to know people who post on here & you feel for that person a bit more.

I am sorry but I have no idea who you are, just because we both have an issue with Smack isn't worth a call imho.

Clonidine 0.1 mg tablets are NUMBER 1 - reducing Norepinephrine in the CNS, ….reduced BP & HR, Potent anxiolytic properties, mild sedative, amazing for sleep, reducing hot & cold flashes, RLS, restlessness etc

Gabapentinoids such as Pregabalin 150-300mg in morning & bedtime - anticonvulsant & anxiolytic

Benzodiazepine low dose for few first days (days 3-7 are insaine) Valium, Klonopin- Muscle relaxant & anxiolytic
Baclofen muscle relaxant if doc is scared little bitch

Anticonvulsant and muscle relaxant + anxiolytic are staple

Good luck .. but when you feel better is often the worst time for the cravings and the worst time to indulge. Being able to get at morphine on day 6 sounds like a BIG risk. If you can at least manage a week off "straight," after day 6 then you've climbed the hardest part of the never ending mountain of sobriety.

Not that I believe in sobriety, but it has it's place and it does work wonders for some people and I genuinely wish the best for all those trying for it.

Thanks. Yeah, I'm gonna see how I feel on Thursday and if there's any temptation at all for Fri morning, I'm gonna call my doctor and ask her to cancel the script.

Cold shower

Oh. Well, I took 3000mg Gabapentin, had a really hot bath, then got right into bed and actually slept for 8 hours, so it worked :D
Although my fucking DREAMS were about trying to blag my way to an early Morphine script lol.

 

[ChemicallyEnhanced]

Bro if u really asking for help than masturbate first, than go to shower

lol, this reminds me of when I cold turkeyd 50mg Methadone (like 9 years ago...I could never now) and I got so horny at one point (thi was day 10, I think), I masturbated like 7 times in 3 hours.
I think normally (ie when not addicted to anything/before addiction) I did it like 5-10 x a week (if I wasn't having sex at the time) but when on opioids + gabapentin ot benzos sometimes I go more than a week without feeling like it at all, and then it sometimes multiple times a day in withdrawal :/
Same with sweating, actually. I almost never sweat due to nerve damage from diabetes (which may SOUND good, I collapsed from sun stroke 3 times last summer as not sweating means your body cannot cool itself down) but I feel like I'm constantly all clammy and gross in WD.

 

[ChemicallyEnhanced]

if you can get in a HOT shower take it right away, sit under the shower as hot as you can stand.
Good CBD loaded Hash & Pregabalin will do well but for the pregab you need a very low tolerance, when you are dopesick 600mg will fix you up quite well but you'll NOT Be 100%.



I can relate 100%, I go from freezing cold to the point where it feels like I am being boiled alive, the anxiety is constant too, my mind goes over all kinds of stuff & when it stops doing that all I think about is getting a £10 bag of Heroin.

That is all a Junkie when sick can do, sorry to tell you this but it's the truth. You have NO WAY to escape the sickness, you can do anything in the world but it'll still jump on you in a second & smash you to pieces.

I have been where you are a million times, it's really bad & I can understand how you feel 100%
I hope you get well soon. The only escape from it is to score OR sit it out, sorry but that is the truth, NO Junkie can escape the backside of an opiate withdrawl, you pay back every single moment of pleasure in vomiting, shitting, unable to sleep, thinking of dumb stuff, time goes by SO SLOW which drives me mad, when you have only slept 7 hours in 4 days it starts to get to you.

I send you the best, I am being 100% legit I really feel for you as I KNOW from direct lived experience how bad it is.

The anxiety is DREADFUL. I'm normally a pretty strong person (mentally) but sometimes in withdrawal, the anxiety has me scared of everything. Like, to the point I wanna hide in my bed and get my mum to "make it better". But, of course, as soon as I get under the covers I'm engulfed by the heat of a thouand hell-suns.

Urgh, there sure is NOTHING dignified about opioid withdrawal. I've never felt less human than when I've been erupting hot lava into the toilet bowl while projectile vomiting int a bucket at the same time, drenched in that awful "sick-sweat", with my nose running down to my chin.

Thanks for the kindness
How are you doing? Did you ever get the Methadone issue sorted?

 

[ChemicallyEnhanced]

50 hours...phewwwww

I do have a trick for sleep if I get desperate, but I try to avoid using it as while it never fails (to induce 2-3hours sleep), it's kinda stupid and mildly dangerous.
I wouldn't say what it is, but this is gonna be something that almost nobody could copy anyway as you have to be opioid dependant AND insulin-dependant and that combo accounts for roughly 0.01% if the population, but this excludes type 2 diabetics (insulin-resistance) which accounts for 80-90% of diabetes cases, so actually this only applies to 0.001-0.002% of the poplation.
I'll deliberately inject myself with an overdose of rapid-acting insulin t enduce a severe hypoglycemia. Which feels fucking horrible. And then take glucose to correct it. Because hypos are extremely draining on the body, once my blood sugar is normal again (only takes ~10 mins with orange juice*) I always feel incredibly calm and sleepy and have never not slept after.
Reasons I hesitate are 1) Hypos feel AWFUL, 2) If I fuck up and lose consciousness before I drink any OJ, I'm kinda fucked unless someone finds me and 3) TACHYCARDIA. My heart rate has gone as high as 187bpm during hypos before, which HAS to be dangerous.


*Did you know OJ has a HIGHER Glycaemic Index than literal pure sugar? On the scale that is generally 0-100 with how ra;pidly something will increase your blood sugar, with sugar being a 100, OJ actually breaks the metric and comes in at 110

The time I was going into a HOT shower I got hit by some cold water, I was so dopesick my skin looked like it does on a chicken.
The cold water hit me on the head then ran down my body, it made me scream & I vomited & sprayed orange liquid shit out my backside at the same time.

That is what happened when I had a cold shower when dopesick.

This made me picture that tubgirl jpeg lol (don't look that up if you don't already know).
Sorry that happened!

Did you stop methadone cold turkey? Wow, then morphine withdrawals will probably feel like a «walk in the park» for you.

Are you on a stable prescribed morphine dose from a doctor? How did you run out? I’m guessing you took a bit extra for a few days. Fucking opioids always do that. Right when you think you’re stable, one slightly higher dose and you start slipping again. Weirdly, I never had that issue with benzos. I’ve got a stash and it just sits there, I only take the prescribed dose and everything’s fine.

My advice is don’t make impulsive decisions and call your doctor to cancel the prescription, because one day later there’s a very high chance you’ll regret it.

The shitty thing is that it’s actually easier not to use when you’re in withdrawal. You feel sick, you’re tired of this life, half the time you don’t even want to take anything. Not that you wouldn’t if you had it though lol. The hard part is when the withdrawals are gone and you’re feeling okay and sober again. That’s when the inner restlessness and thoughts start creeping in.

But honestly, it sounds like you’re doing really well. Have you decided to quit forever? Obviously that’s relative. I’m asking because of the thing with your doctor, since when you’re sick or down to your last doses you think “yeah whatever, I’ll quit, fuck it” or “I’ll just stay off for 2 or 3 weeks,” but once the withdrawals are over, you know how it goes.

Better at all?

 

[ChemicallyEnhanced]

Haha sorry to hear that, but to be honest cold turkey is not a good option

I'm (weak, I guess) unable to taper anything myself. I DID get off of alcohol by tapering because cold turkey from alcohol is extreme dangerous (my partner actually died from a massive grand mal seizure caused by alcohol withdrawal). I was on 56 units a day (UK units, IDK if that's a Universal thing or just a UK thing) and reduced safely by 1 unit a day, but had to have my dad hold my alcohol and give me a 24 hour supply once every 24 hours 'cause once I was intoxicated, I'd be like "ah, fuck it, who cares? I'mma drink all I want".
So cold-turkey is my only option, really.
I'm never doing Methadone again. I gained over 20lbs and developed SEVERE secondary hyperhidrosis, like in the Summer, me and my clothes would be saturated from just a few hours of sitting doing nothing.
I also have legitimate severe chronic pain, so WILL require some level of opioid sometimes, so I can't do Subutex either as it would block those painkillers from working.
