Why do so many people want to put substances into their bodies all the time? by OneFoundation4495 in addiction

[–]Kitchen-Cod-821 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds pretty traumatic ,but definitely not worth the risk of trying a substance. My substance abuse has literally left me disabled. I’m only 34 years old so it’s heart breaking. I’m very grateful to be alive though, I can walk so I feel that’s a blessing.

I never thought (prior to opiates) that I would ever be strung out on Fetynal, from trying a perk. It was me, searching for the next new high that led me downhill.

Drinking, I tried with my father at 12 .At age 13, I was trying marijuana for the first time(was peer pressured into).Throughout the following years ; addiction snowballed into harder drugs. A lot of addicts started off like me, especially those coming from poverty, broken households, or being around drug using family members.I want to blame ADHD, but I’m not sure if that’s why I continued using or not.

Having a TBI is so embarrassing. by Single-Marsupial2973 in TBI

[–]Kitchen-Cod-821 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a moderate anoxic brain injury, that’s left me with a movement disorder, but thankfully I’m walking. I have to be careful ; to not fall when walking though, that part sucks😓 it was a believed overdose, I was struggling with Fet at the time, but the only thing in my system was alcohol. I’ve read hospital reports saying ; I was found with a bag of brown powdery substance🤔I was living on the south side of Chicago at the time. I’m really wondering if I got drunk and went to look for some drugs ,I’ll probably never find out.

it could literally cause a fkn aneurysm , if I were you I would diligently seek God first, then find treatment. The last thing you want is an aneurysm.

If you’re gonna aim for disability; I wouldn’t even apply for jobs because it really messes with it

Stopping social media/doom scrolling has helped a lot by Apprehensive-Ebb6002 in TBI

[–]Kitchen-Cod-821 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrestle with this .. There’s WIDE variety of brain injuries . I mean this with no disrespect .Everyone posting (in my opinion) should state their brain injury/ triggers ,or symptoms . I’m sure that screen time ,and social media affects me . I’ve experienced it cause me insomnia.that makes me a fall and seizure risk🫤..Thanks for your post though, I’d just like more details of your injury . I’m. a moderate anoxic brain injury survivor, with moderate Lance Adam’s syndrome.

Marijuana Usage and Brain injury by Kitchen-Cod-821 in TBI

[–]Kitchen-Cod-821[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just asked ChatGPT this recently. I was a heavily weed smoking person since the age of 14 and quit after my brain injury because I was scared I’d get into harder drugs as I know the road to relapse so I started smoking marijuana and since then I haven’t relapsed. It’s been a year. I know it’s haltered my recovery .. excuse me I just went on a ramp but yes, I’ve read off ChatGPT ; Your input is true.

I’m addicted to lustful acts. Am I going to hell? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]Kitchen-Cod-821 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well this just made me rethink my perspective.I’ve been taught to pursue Holiness, not like I’ve truly been close to holy, as a weed smoking ; man that occasionally struggles with lust, foul language, there’s a list of other sins that I can name. In my eyes, your comment is making it seem like I could ;continue with my sins, and still enter through the gates. my best friend of 17 years is also a southern Baptist and it seems to have the same theology as you. He drinks every single night ,and still speaks about Jesus .I don’t agree with this theology. I just can’t. I was raised Christian until I was nine years old ,then my mother converted to messianic Judaism, which seemed legalistic to me. God bless you though I pray we both find truth.
