    @algol29 and Suboxone is a nightmare to come off of also.. I think it's a good idea if it is taken as intended, only while going through withdrawal and then wean right off of it within one month. for long-term use I would say Kratom is a way better alternative because it's natural and has antioxidants and will not cause the same issues as Subs will.

    Once you get through the withdrawals and your body has almost fully regulated itself, you feel almost like a natural high. I used to remind myself that "you beat the addiction, be proud" I would literally feel giddy. Its an amazing feeling not to be enslaved to a drug.

    This guy is awesome! Quitting heroin/ oxycodone/ Xanax/ codiene/ alcohol was the most toughest thing in my life. But today I’m in a better place because I got to that point of desperation and realized how I was powerless over those drugs and my life became unmanageable. That was my first step in recovery! And I pray if your going through it that you surround yourself with the right people and you realize you can do it! My sponsor told me the same thing that you must approach your recovery just as you approached your drug abuse. I used to go to any lengths to get my drugs. And so now I try my best (I’m not perfect In any manner) to go to any lengths to get my meetings in even when I’m tired or burnt out. There is hope and you can do this! (:

    If you think that was hard try quitting suboxone or methadone. Do not fall prey to these drugs, do not listen to anyone praising subs for long term, you will never quit this drug. It is new age OxyContin, incredibly aggressive marketing and prescribing, all for profits. They don’t give a fuck about you they just want to keep you hooked on any drug they can, there is nothing good about being a slave to any drug, if you use subs for longer then 7 days the devil will have you and do his best to never let you go, may god be with you all

It's a long road, but YOU CAN DO IT!! AND LEANING ON GOD WILL HELP YOU MORE THAN YOU KNOW. My thoughts and prayers are with anyone that's trying to quit using. It is sooo worth it. Just keep telling yourself that it will get better...it will get easier with each hour that passes. I KNOW it's hard and you think there's no end...but you can and will get through it!

I told my parents today what they've known for a long time. Mom and dad pleaded with me to find it in myself to stop this. My mom cried in front of me. I have a girlfriend who's also addicted .. it started out as fun and now it's gotten bad.

    I'm on 5th day of detoxing from oxycotin and it isn't hitting me as hard because I tapered. I think tapering really does help minimize the issues of detoxing a lot. I can actually poop, not sweating as much, can actually sleep, my body doesn't feel like it is on fire, and I feel rather normal in some sense most of the time except for the fact I have nothing stopping the pain. So I avoid painful situations till my body actually can handle it normally again. DO NOT ACCEPT OXYCONTIN OR OXYCONDONE FROM YOUR DOCTOR!

    I started with perk 10s , then the real 30s every once in a while , then my back pain got so bad the perks did nothing at all . Started on the fentanyl m 30s because i get them cheap . And they take away my chronic pain instantly. Now after a year on them , i had my spinal fusion and im going to quit in 2 days , i have my kratom order on the way and my last pill will be gone in 2 days . I even deleted all my numbers and made sure to spend all my money so i cant buy more . Im finally done with meds . Cant wait to have my life back . I did yeyo every day for a year and quit that cold turkey, i never had withdrawals from that . These m 30 withdrawals are worse than the chronic pain i was in. Crazy to think 1 pill kills . I wanted to die. The pain was that bad . So i kinda kept taking them in hopes to never wake up . 25 in one day . Im down to 3 a day . 2 days to go and im done . I hear kratom is the miracle ive been looking for .

    Also important to note- once having been physically addicted, each and every time a relapse occurs the body becomes addicted more easily. After a 20 year on and off fight, when I use even once I get drug sick. Progressive physically, not just mentally. Three futures for opoid addicts- (1)those who get hooked and once clean do what is necessary to keep it that way- (2)those who live in a get clean/use again cycle. (3) those who continue to use and use until they die. That's it. Those are the only scenarios.

For instance if I used for 5 years where I was sick more then 20 times for more then a week so then feeling decent and then relapsed into addiction again. Vs someone who has been non stop using for 5 years with not many breaks at all where you quit long enough to be completely free from physical withdrawals before resuming use. Who’s single relapse after getting clean for a year would be worse?

    This is one of the best descriptions of how horrible going through with withdrawal really is. But one mistake these videos and former addicts make, is saying "Just do this, it's that simple" because it really isn't. The message really should be "Just try and try and try. No matter how many times you fail, just keep trying". Because that is actually the reality of it. I've been an addict twice in my life with many years in between. I was a very light user, but there's really no such a thing, except when comparing to other addicts. The only reason I bring that up, is because through both periods of my addictions, I knew hundreds of other addicts. Unfortunately, I have yet to know of one other addict that has been able to quit and stay clean. I'm not saying that it hasn't happened, maybe I just haven't heard of the success stories. My point is... being the lightest user I have ever come across, it was still the hardest thing I have ever gone through. Now I understand why I haven't known of one other addict that's made it, is because if it was that hard for me, I can't imagine what a heavier user would have to go through. It is the loneliest path, and truly a path you have to walk alone. The recovery process is way longer than I imagined or was ever told it would be. Having said this, I still hold out hope, because I know some will eventually make it through this incredibly difficult path.

Just 2 weeks ago I had enough , jumped off 70mg a day methadone over the past two years on top of heroin and for some reason I felt the physical withdraws but had no cravings at all. A week into withdrawals I was actually worried it was too easy and just hadn’t peaked but I felt better and steadily recovering. I’m 36 now it’s crazy I finally feel I can get on with life and do what I came to do.. after an 18 year opiate streak with no breaks I think I had enough, maybe matured a bit spiritually too

    Running toward sobriety has been the challenge for me bc for so long and STILL it feels like opiates are my best friend - in that it’s there for me to escape all my negative feelings and thoughts about myself and my circumstances. Without it, I don’t like what I’m left with when I’m by myself and that’s the scary part that keeps me running back and I dread running out of the substance and having to deal with that knowing that I’m only going thru this bc ive run out of money so in my head I’m like ... well here we go, but it’s false bc I know I’m only detoxing right now bc I have to, not bc I want to. Right now, I have enough to last me another week but after that I don’t know what I’m gonna do until I get paid again and on top of that I have to make it through work. The problem is ... is that without it, it’s to the point now where, I have no motivation to do ANYTHING and the things I once found joy in, don’t provide that joy anymore. It’s like, I can’t be normal without it. You were so on point about if you don’t have the money to have that medical trifecta of medicine, and inpatient and human support. You DO need that room with a friend to rub your back and tell you that you’re a good person and people love you and that live IS worth living once you’re back on the otherwise. Detox and withdrawal are the absolute worst and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. But it’s necessary. I need that. I need TGIF room and I need that person. Bc that’s where I am right now and it’s scary as hell. I need help bc I don’t want to do this anymore. I have so much potential as a person but I know that it WILL go to the grave with me if I don’t get over my fear of life and other people and other peoples expectations of me, if I don’t turn this around and find the strength to want sobriety and the life that comes with that, more than I want the instant gratification of the evilest great escape of all time. Someone please help me. My email is imgxxd@gmail.com. Thank you for this video it’s exactly what I needed to hear right now.

Exercise or sauna. And hot baths. Sweat it out. You will feel better as long as you drink a lot of water and herbal tea and juices.

    Been off opioids for 5 months now. I promise you it gets better. The worst thing is while you’re going through it you think you won’t ever get through it. But you will. If you’re on pills, I highly suggest you taper down like I did. It helped me so much more. And taking pregablin for 10 days helped.

Not this time. I had to take 8mg whole strip and 2mg piece off another strip just for the first day the withdrawals were crazy. This fentanyl is getting stronger no joke is soooo bad stay away not even one time !!!! no sleep first 4 days from the discomfort detoxing is always scary but just know there is light on the other side just hold on a few days!!!

    I agree with him, Suboxone should only be used for the initial withdrawal period ( 7-14 days). I was prescribed Suboxone for over a year and it started working against me which led to relapse. Suboxone was a harder kick than heroin. I also like his analogy of approaching recovery as if you're on fire and approaching a pond.
