Why did/do you want to get clean/sober?

^^ Gosh mate, that is a tough question to answer.....how long is a piece of string??

why would people want to IV a drug? it will only lead to bad habits and or danger - is enjoying drugs orally/safely too much to ask?

I'm not supporting drug use of any kind, but I feel like stating:
*IV drug use is more efficient.
*The mechanism of action is nearly instantaneous
*There is correct IV drug use and unsafe & blatantly dangerous IV drug use.

I could point out how taking drugs orally is more dangerous, but I'll save everyone the time.

I don't IV anything anymore, and I don't miss it at all.

When we simply view our activity in the larger context of people self-medicating, or just medicating, then any route of administration has certain advantages and disadvantages, in that case IVing is no different than popping a pill or snorting them.

Correct. IV'ing something like codiene would kill most people and/or give them a severe histamine reaction first, instead of eating them. Certain medications should or need to be processed through the liver first, whereas with others, it's far more than a waste of time and product.

Well the day on/day off thing worked for a few days, but today was supposed to be an off day... I slipped and had a 1.5 bag shot this evening
Looking back I set myself up for failure; it's supposed to be terrible weather tomorrow so I figured rather than having to trek to my dealers house in the pouring rain, I'd go this afternoon and just wait until the morning.
Why I thought I would be able to just not do the gear is beyond me (I've never been able to so far), just my brains way of tricking me into giving it what it wants I guess.

I've still got 1.5 bags left and technically tomorrow is an 'on' day, so here's my new dilemma: do I not use tomorrow to make up for today, or finish off this (pretty small) amount tomorrow and stick to my schedule?

Ahh aren't drugs fun! :/

Missykins when you say the pain was excruciating what do you mean (if you don't mind me asking)?

In every way imaginable. Physically, emotionally, spiritually, psychically.

 

[etnies]

Why did I decide to get clean? I simply could not live with myself another day, the pain was excruciating. I had no issues with law enforcement. I had a good job. My family was not aware of my addiction. Therefore, I had no external forces telling me to quit, it all came from within.

Damn, I'm in the same boat as you only I need to quit/get sober

 

[Nodding]

God damn, spent the entire day wasted, got 0 work done as I was too far gone (which means I've now got to go in tomorrow), massive fail

Still barely conscious, I'm going to bed - night folks.

For me its all health and family related, Unfortunatly i still got a ways to go b4 im free its like i have absolutly no drive to do so... im not getting any younger and although ive given away many of my vices, the worst stick hard and im still working really fuckin hard on that. Anxiety overwhelms me but I just end up freakin out on most recent attempts

As for the first post well its been said, its up to the individual hey OP but the diffucilty is overwhelming to the point of seemingly impossible to the addicted mind. But as a personal oppinion, The less junk the better just for future HR's sake.
