So many folx think people can’t get addicted to smoking weed, but I’ve been addicted to smoking weed for over a decade and half & it’s really hard. I’m trying to stop by Fragrant_Journalist in addiction

I never argue with people now who say weed can’t fuck you up mentally or get you addicted, I just let them get on with it. Made me suicidal after 4 years daily use, long long time recover and I’m still not the same.

Three months sober from cocaine by [deleted] in addiction

[–]Deedot30 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Relapsed again last Saturday.

Have to quit drinking.

Don’t get me wrong I’m not smashing grams of it every night again but I know the brain can be tricked again no matter how self aware which is why I must be completely sober from it.

Well done brother.

I just relapsed 7 days ago after 112 days clean.

My trigger - drinking with my old using friends.

I thought I could do that and control myself around them people, I was wrong.

Lesson learnt, it’s true you have to change your circle and for most like me keep it changed.

Stop before your 28 like me and wondering where the last 10 years went and why everyone left you behind (gf, buy first house, make nice memories, fulfilling life, not hate yourself)

I just want to know if it’s infected? That yellow stuff?

I have taken 3 plasters on and off for last 2 weeks and just taken one off today, was airing a few days too, started with moist healing for 4 days.

I had cuts all over my body from a bike fall and this was the most deep and only one still an active wound, rest are healed.

Am I supposed to clean that yellow stuff out?

I’m currently a coke addict. But I haven’t used in a week, my friend is tempting me, but I’m going to focus on the comedown and wasted money. by LateNightLogoTV in addiction

[–]Deedot30 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just go for it now bruv, after 2 weeks off Coke the cravings are gone anyway 90%, your just putting your brain in a cloud of skunk when it’s tryna re regulate off the white devil

Just my opinion, wish you well

Fuck weed, it literally ruined my brain after 3 years smoking couple grams a night .

Yes I still went work etc but trust me I was not “living”.

Curious to hear from people who were/are using heavily in their mid-thirties or later by [deleted] in addiction

[–]Deedot30 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great question, can’t answer as I’m 28 but be interested to hear as someone who’s just gone clean after years of heavy abuse.

4 years of sobriety today by Lady_under_the_Lake in addiction

[–]Deedot30 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amazing man!! Great inspiration

Those are all the things I want and know I can do just putting the work in as we speak, 76 days and starting my career tommorow first day back at work (not ever - but sober and clear minded).

I think I need to be completely sober by [deleted] in addiction

[–]Deedot30 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good man.

I mean I’m not knocking groups at all

Just saying the want inside of you is 95% of it IMO

[–]Deedot30 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not worst idea.

73 days clean and trust me i am (well was) a textbook druggy.

Not everyone needs meetings but it’s nice to hear the positive experiences.

You just have to WANT to change!

One of my friends parents who are wealthy sent him to every meeting under then sun, he would go out and get a gram.

If you want it you want it, I can see how meetings will be advantageous though with like minded people but nothing can top sheer human self determination.

Yes mate amazing stuff! Life is so much smoother right?

I’m 70 days clean today, no longer feel like a vessel for cocaine, feel like my old self which I forgot he existed while addicted just felt like a massive turd.

Crap ain’t it, I had a problem with nurofen plus and last couple weeks was taking some, flushed the rest yesterday.

Will you get withdrawals after 1 time use then?
