FEAR The Oxy Ghost
Hey what's up everyone, I've been here for a couple weeks now. I've been to this forum before, not as a member, but when I looked stuff up I always came to this one.

I decided to become a member because I've been an addict to oxycodone, 30's, blues or whatever you wanna call them, for about 4 years now. I'm getting ready to quit and wanted a place to come to help me with ideas on how to get through the W/D's and for support. It's the only place I can come for support because other than my fiancé(who is using them with me) I have nobody else to talk to for support. My family thinks I'm not using them anymore so my fiancé is the only one I can talk to and members of the forum of course:). I use recreationally, I only do oxycodone and smoke weed. I used to do Xanax but it does nothing but make me fall asleep. I've tried coke and Molly a couple times but never done anything else and oxy is my only drug addiction. I snort the 30's. I've tried smoking them but it's just a waste. I've never IVed them and I don't want it to get to that point. My fiancé has recently tried banging them and says she wants to try it again. I'm trying to get her not to because it seems like once you start using the needle than the addiction goes from bad to way worse and is harder to get out of. I've been to a detox center, went for 5 days and relapsed the day after I got out. I was kind of forces to go, not by court or anything but by my parents. I wasn't ready to quit so that's why I relapsed.

But now I'm ready to quit, it's ruining my life and at $40 for a single 30mg oxycodone, I just can't pay that much to get high anymore. Especially since I'm not working.

At my lowest point, I was stealing from my family to get high and that's when I went to detox a couple years ago. Now I'm trying to manage my addiction. I'm not stealing and I'm not taking a lot, 15mg a day. Yes I know it's not a lot but when you've been doing it for 4 years, the W/D's are still pretty bad. I don't withdraw for very long, maybe 12-14 days max but I can never get past the 3rd day. I really only get an upset stomach(I run to the bathroom a lot), maybe a minor headache some times, and really really really bad RLS. My legs don't twitch or randomly move like most people. They tingle really bad and feel like I need to stretch them. So I'm always stretching my legs but it doesn't do anything. Around the second night the RLS is so bad that I can't take it anymore and that's when I gotta get my fix.

Well I figured id just give y'all a little of my background use. I look forward to receiving and giving people advice and help, especially with W/D's. I know how much it sucks and how badly the pills can ruin your life so every chance I get I like to let people know what they're getting themselves into. If they're first time users than I try everything I can to persuade them to not take opiates just to get high. If you really wanna get high than smoke weed. It's much safer, virtually no W/D symptoms (I don't care what anyone says, you can experience very very light W/D symptoms if your a heavy smoker and you stop smoking for a week or so, personally I get very irritable and maybe a light headache), and it's a lot cheaper and lasts a lot longer, and I don't really believe you can get "addicted" to weed.

Okay I'll stop rambling now:)
 
Good luck me buddy im in the same boat but been on the spike for about a year and was a sniffer for bout five years started with morphine and dillies moved to Newfoundland and used lots of oxy irs then moved back to Halifax where I started banging hydros and dillies about 10 8s a day or the equivalent I told my girlfriend I was moving for work but the real reason was cheap dope and lots of connections. Lost my job in halifax 33.00 a hr carpentry job cause I missed to much time running around chaseing highs my main suppliers were day dealers and didn't meet at night. Moved back to the rock in hopes of staying clean but a junkie always finds a way so now I'm paying 4 times what I used to living on ei life of lies missing bills getting money anyway I can just so I can get a 10 secound rush and not be sick and grouchy it's a shitty way to live but it's all I know im only 27 been a opiate addict since i was 22 a crack head for a good two years before that a blow fiend and xtc user in highschool and started smoking pot in grade 6 ive been to drug counclers and programs and nothing works luckly my girlfriend isn't a user and still loves me but if I dont clean up i will be as alone as i feel
good luck to you
