Neurofeedback starts this week. I really dont want to use after I begin. I want to go into it 100% committed. So why cant I bring myself to smash the pipe..

If you're confident in your mental state to not use, don't go smashing and wasting a good pipe. When I successfully quite cigarettes (for the nth time of over 6 months) I made sure that I kept a pack at home, just because I knew that I didn't want to smoke. I am not sure if this would be the same with ice or heroin for example, but it worked for nicotine for me. In fact, having it there and knowing that I didn't want to use it made it that much easier when I went out to the pub or whatever where nearly everyone was smoking. I'd still go outside and chat/socialize whatever, but I didn't want to smoke.

Just a couple of cents of a useless junkies opinion.

From one junkie to another, I will take what ever you've got!

Im actually planning on locking my pipe away in the tool box (with a couple of eftpos cards) and getting my boyfriend to hide the key. Im committed, but realistic.

Infectedmyshroom I am still in the same headspace. I don't think Ive really told myself I will never use again.. But I know dam well it wouldn't be long before Im right back where I am today.

Guess I have to tell my dealer not to drop his pipes off here for their 'popeyes personalised polish' anymore. Shit.

Like my shrink told me. I just have to keep telling myself 'Im no longer a meth smoker' until I actually believe it too.

Infectedmushroom, I hope we can put it in the past and embrace a new future. Oh and hell funny ya now as Toey as a Roman Sandal!!
 
Yea being randy is the only positive thing I'm taking from it at the minute haha. From someone who isn't normally very positive, I'll say just stay positive! That fake it till you make it stuff has to have some value. It's what's getting me through my glum feelings right now. The problem is those subconscious factors. Like today I said I'd just eat 6 pills and suddenly found myself at franklin about to buy coffee filters for cwe. I was like "what the fuck am I doing here? I don't need filters. I said to myself I'd just pop."

Now I know meth and codeine aren't in the same playing field. I saw your post in the meth thread, it made me chuckle. Bpay would be convenient. :) There's a certain mindfulness one has to have when trying to quit/taper, a mindfulness we were trying to forget or mask with using; that's sobriety, and at first it sucks...but remember in time everything is sposed to get infitismely (is that a fucken word?) better.

Maybe I'm just talking shit and will relapse tomorrow; but as of right now, I'm on track. Tomorrows another day. Be positive popeyes! :)
 
Hmm. Got it from a very popular national herbal supplier. With tolerance it gives no opiate effect but good relief from wd symptoms and a slight head change.

Not sure if I can say the potency / amount - obvs. no prices.

I'll be getting some of the extract next week. It's exy but it will help with the codeine wd's I hope :)
 
Time to call it quits

There is a thread someplace that asked the question so mods please move if appropriate. If your life becomes a living hell and despite having many reasons to live and getting through a dark period and having a great new job offer you decide to have a little to much. Enter over a week of hell in which nothing helps from anti-depressants to dissociative etc and some things (like synthetic weed) make it so much worse. You feel like you need to die, you want to die and that is when you need to stop. Hell can be of your own making and I don't want to walk through the valley of the shadow of death again. Peace, stay safe and enjoy yourselves people. I may still lurk and post on occasion but no more for me, no exploring new substances (RC's), no tripping, speeding etc, just been through to much pain and when pain out-ways the gain it is over. Now I'll be coughing black shit for weeks and sleeping as much as possible + taking my anti-depressant medication until I feel human enough to tapper of the anti-depressant's. Much love to all :).
 
@lovepsychadelics I moved your thread into this quitting/tapering thread.

It's a good resource for people having thoughts or plans about quitting/tapering.

Even the smallest things can get the ball rolling. And reading about other people's accounts, wether successful or not, is good thought for everyone. And, of course, a good place to start.
 
Lovepsychadelics hoping a new start and a new way of living your life falls into place easily for you.

Its proving harder, so bloody much harder than I anticipated. Ive always been able to use, then go a few days, or a week even, without.. But just saying NO MORE all together is tough!

Ive had about 5 Neurofeedback sessions now. They say about 30 may be needed. Its expensive so makes it hard to use meth too. I could possibly say its making me not want it quite so bad.. But Ive still easily lapsed each week since starting.

Early days I guess. Im doing 'eyes closed' treatment so for that 1hr I can make my mind basically goes blank. I even nod off a bit.

I still dont totally understand it but they are basically giving a sound 'reward' which is a bell or tone, when they see my brainwaves in a positive range. How that helps Im yet to clearly undersrand.

Sticking with it though.
 
^ sounds very interesting, hope it works and good luck.

Meh, opiate detox for me.

Thought I could kill it easy with benzos, but then issues in my life mixed with depression, it just makes it a square kick in the arse. Plus I've got a life to live with more responsibilities than I ever asked for.
