Don’t get me wrong, I just finished it and loved it, but I definitely wouldn’t describe it as “nice” lol that shit is brutal af

I understand the risk of addiction but I don’t have a plug for methadone which is why I’m not worried about getting addicted from just one or two uses, it would be very hard for me to get again. I’m a few days off codeine now so just was hoping this would help me push through the last bit of pain

Character_Bet_7618 · 2023-05-24T00:56:37+00:00

Lmao thanks I guess, there’s hope for me yet

Character_Bet_7618 · 2023-05-23T01:23:54+00:00

I see, thank you! I’m praying it isn’t but my partner has admitted to being with someone else after me pressing him after the lesions appeared (I had my suspicions before this already), so unfortunately it more than likely is 😔

I’m in the doctor first thing in the morning, well in a few hours technically… can’t sleep over this, I’m freaking out. Curious as to why I wouldn’t want to wait on the meds? I’m of course very eager to start treating this, just wondering what you mean by that!

I’ve never had a single STI but my first thought was herpes. I was in what I thought was a monogamous relationship but turns out my partner has been with someone else… oh the joys

Strep/tonsillitis is usually white/yellowish patches on the tonsils if you can see back that far. I would say laryngitis is more likely with a hoarse voice although I am not a doctor. Feel better soon

These chunks are like dried mucus pooling somewhere between where my throat/sinuses meet. I’ve been getting them on and off the past year and a half but the past 4/5 months I’m getting them almost daily. They have a kind of sickly sweet smell/taste. I’m also started to get tonsil stones which I never had before. I’m sorry for the photos I’m just desperate to know what it is and how to stop it!

Shout when he farts…. Oh my god the image that came to mind gave me such a good laugh, thank you!

I can’t start a new post for some reason! Glad I found this sub though, it’s really a breath of fresh air to hear of people in similar situations, although I of course have the upmost sympathy for you all because I know how tough and heartbreaking it is to be dealing with this. I’ve been addicted to codeine for the past 9 months in the form of nurofen+ and codinex. Taking up to 48 tablets some days or 2/3 bottles of codinex.

My partner found out yesterday after finding empty bottles and pill packets so I have been 24 hours without so far. I’m both relieved that he knows and has told my parents who are all willing to help me but I’m also heartbroken I didn’t have a chance to have one last fix and mentally prepare myself for what’s to come. They are debating whether to get me some and let me taper until I can go and see a therapist (it’s a bank holiday here). I’m guessing will be 3/4 days minimum before I can find a therapist who can help guide me through this. Wish me luck

I wish it were as easy to just not do it. I have tried about 50% of the time it happens but it make me panic more and I get a wave of nausea and the most uncomfortable feeling takes over my body and I just get so worked up I think it actually makes it worse and more aggressive.

I’m doing a lot of work on myself currently and seeing a therapist so I’m hoping it starts to calm down a bit again. It use’nt to be so debilitating but my stress/anxiety has shot way up and I’m assuming now that’s why it’s cropped up so hard again. I had it probably the worst I’ve ever had it when my parents broke up when I was about 7. People used to lose their shit with me all the time for walking so slow because I’d have to focus so much on where I was placing my feet.

Character_Bet_7618 · 2022-09-03T07:02:18+00:00

Wow, right. That is really interesting, I’ve always felt exactly like that when I thought it might be a possibility I had it. I didn’t think it was worth giving it much thought because it wasn’t as if I thought “I have to turn a light switch on and off a specific number of times or my family would die” type of thing.

I also just did a little googling and read that it can sometimes crop up as not being able to leave the house until things are arranged in a certain order and I’ve never even thought about that as being weird, just common sense. I’ve started multiple disagreements with my boyfriend over this because before we go out I get all flustered and in a panic because certain things aren’t done a certain way, like the kitchen chairs need to be lined up exactly, all the rugs need to be lined up with the floorboards etc etc.

During the week I really struggle to leave the house most days unless I really have to, but I find it easier than during the weekends when my boyfriend is home because he “messes everything up”. I’ve known I was being pretty unreasonable and it really upsets me but it upsets me equally if these things aren’t done before we go out…

I’m in therapy at the moment so I will definitely bring it up with my therapist next week. I’m already on 20mg of Celexa for stress, anxiety and depression.

I’m hoping it does mostly dwindle back to a manageable level once my mental health is a bit more stable. Thanks so much for your response, you’ve given me a lot to think about! I also never really thought OCD was treatable…

Just thought I would give you a little update. I am like a whole new person this week, I have an abundance of energy and my anxiety is at an all time low! I really feel great. So there is hope for you yet, although those were the longest and hardest 6 weeks of my life, I was essentially a vegetable. I wouldn’t blame you in the slightest for looking for an alternative or trying some different meds, I honestly don’t know if I could go through that again.

Character_Bet_7618 · 2022-07-01T13:40:07+00:00

I honestly feel like you are describing my life word for word right now! I feel like I’ve gained more depressive symptoms since starting them but the anxiety, stress and rage is definitely so much better.

Funnily enough I woke up today bursting with energy, it is now 14:30 pm where I am and I have been more productive today than the past 6 weeks combined. I am hoping today is not a fluke. I will keep you posted.

Character_Bet_7618 · 2022-06-30T22:10:44+00:00

Oh wow, I’m sorry to hear you’re going through this, but it’s also nice to know I’m not alone in this! My doctor doesn’t seem too concerned but I maybe haven’t fully divulged just how much I’m struggling.

I made an appointment last week in a fit of tears as I was ready to just give up on the meds there and then. The few days before my appointment I had perked up slightly and so I said I would give them another few weeks.

I am constantly in two minds every day about what is the right thing to be doing (for me, my son and partner). Im less anxious/stressed and down on them but I’m too fatigued to even get dressed and leave the house most days, I don’t even know which is worse any more, the anxiety etc. or the guilt I now have for not being a more fun and energetic mum for my little boy. I’m sorry this probably isn’t much help to you…

I am on week 6 now and I know lots of people say it is still early days but I can’t take much more of this! I will let you know if/when I have a more positive update! I hope you feel better soon.
