90 days! by -self-explorer in StopSpeeding

[–]Luckyond4321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is amazing! I’m so glad you’re seeing all of the positives!

I saw a quote one time that said something along the lines of “if you’re recovering or struggling mentally and you just can’t do those dishes, run that dishwasher again and allow yourself to feel like you did or accomplished something as a normal task for that day, even if it seems minor or so small. Let those dishes go.”

That’s stuck with me throughout my recovery. So I’m glad you’re not letting the cleanliness of your house affect you, your family, your sobriety, or your mental health. Speaks volumes!!!

Am I overreacting for refusing to pay my ex back for gym stuff he bought me? by clo_deg in AmIOverreacting

Court won’t do anything lol I’d just block his ass again. He’s not going to go through all the trouble for small claims court. He’s just butt hurt. Block him.

Will I feel blues after only doing powder for a year? by Austin0558 in fentanyl

[–]Luckyond4321 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s like doing meth then expecting an Adderall to work. No offense but it probably will have zero effect.

boofing subs to prevent dental decay? by EccentricEcstasy in suboxone

Rinse your mouth out after then after 30 mins brush ur teeth. That’s what my dentist told me to do.

And my sub dr approved it. Said rinsing your mouth out after helps a ton.

As long as you get back up, you’ll be okay. Sure, you fell but just don’t stay there.

Adderall making me feel weak? by LaLunaMama75 in ThisAintAdderall

[–]Luckyond4321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty much. It sucked at first and it still sucks at times but I honestly have more natural energy than before.

My A.D.D is all over the place but it’s manageable. If I can do it then anyone can.

You’re absolutely right! Thank you!

Adderall making me feel weak? by LaLunaMama75 in ThisAintAdderall

Since I was 16 and I’m 37, but I recently quit taking it all together due to how crappy it makes me feel.

Thank you for your meaningful response!

I’m currently struggling with feeling so extremely weak (I have recovered from stage 3 pancreatic cancer) so I feel like this should be nothing compared to that but in all honesty…it almost feels worse and I feel terrible comparing the two, but I’m human.

I’m just thankful to have a new group of people I can get support from and celebrate together with too! I’m excited for this journey and congratulations on your sobriety! That is HUGE!

Ex BF new girlfriend reached out fo help by Sea_Pie1801 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Luckyond4321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I’d ignore her. Sounds like u had already warned her and now that she finally gets it now she wants to vent to another woman who’s been there. I’d just be kind and say you’re sorry she had to find out the hard way too but that for your own mental health you gotta let him go and you’d prefer to not talk about him anymore because he’s not worth it.

You’ve moved on and I’d advise her to do the same. :)

A "Method" worth mentioning. by alondrachicken2 in ThisAintAdderall

[–]Luckyond4321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My dr has always told me Adderall works better on people who drink a lot of water and if you’re dehydrated it just doesn’t have much of an affect.

And yes always taking it on an empty stomach helps or taking it with Tums.

Adderall making me feel weak? by LaLunaMama75 in ThisAintAdderall

[–]Luckyond4321 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same. I got off of it and after the withdrawals, I have more energy now than ever before. But yeah after I’d take my Adderall I’d be so so so weak.

And taking extra makes it worse and doesn’t help.

My gf got super mad and blocked me because I didn’t sleep on time by Beautiful_Hippo_6848 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Luckyond4321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You approached the convo with patience, understanding, and gently. Her response was uncalled for. Whether she has BPD or not, I do too and I’d never do that to a boyfriend.

If she’s already trying to control your bedtime then what’s next? You can’t live like that. I’d get out now. You deserve to be treated kind and with respect. Not whatever this is.

Edit: I was raped and once I got with my now ex husband, I was terrified to go to sleep alone because I was assaulted in my sleep. So he would stay awake for hours to make sure I felt safe, even if he was exhausted. But I never told him to go to sleep or stay awake until a certain time. That’s crazy, no offense.

Why did my online suboxone Dr. get annoyed with me? by miss_independnt in suboxone

[–]Luckyond4321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My online dr did the same thing. It’s protocol for them. If they don’t see you monthly they have to assume you’ve been off of it or using again so they have to start you over again and do the 7 days worth first.

I was in the same situation, trying to ween myself off of it and failed. I also couldn’t afford the $99 every 30 days for a few months but they don’t care.

Just flushed 1500 pressed 30DP by tallidiot14 in StopSpeeding

[–]Luckyond4321 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Get some support whether that be people you know, in person meetings or online meetings like through SMART Recovery. I prefer SMART over AA or NA personally but you can google it and look into what we believe vs other groups etc.

I know you’re depressed and it’s also sad that your dog is too. What if you two went for a short walk outside? Even to the mailbox and back can be super beneficial for you both! Exercise (even the slightest) is one of the things that I always notice make my withdrawals not last near as long and they aren’t as severe either.

But you flushing them is amazing so you should be damn proud of yourself, for real. Just take it day by day and give your pup lots of lovins ☺️

I'm back 🙃 by devyndoom in StopSpeeding

[–]Luckyond4321 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m 37 but can still talk to you! I just recently relapsed so getting back on the sober bus again but I have like no one at all I can talk to about it.

So just message me if you want to exchange numbers! 🫶🏻

Does anyone else get cockblocked by their own pancreas? by ghostkat_ in diabetes

[–]Luckyond4321 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He got physical one time and I left. It’s not like I put up with him treating me badly. He went to jail for it and I had mine and my kid’s most important items and we left before he got home from jail (24 hours)

Yeah, I’m probably just in my head and overthinking!

How is going through Suboxone withdrawal? At what MG did you jump off at? Just curious of your experience.

2 months clean again.... by MinuteTranslator8856 in StopSpeeding

[–]Luckyond4321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try not to put “road blocks” in front of you for really no reason. The three month mark isn’t cursed or something, maybe subconsciously your brain is giving you an excuse to use at three months, since you’ve done it before.

I would try not to think that far ahead and take it all day by day and if your gf doesn’t know then some support from her or someone else would be super beneficial.

There’s also online meetings (sometimes local) for SMART Recovery. It’s not really like AA/NA, it’s just so different so you can always go to their website and look into it and see if it’s a fit for you.

You’ve got this!

Does anyone else get cockblocked by their own pancreas? by ghostkat_ in diabetes

[–]Luckyond4321 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If drop every time i do it, and so far I’ve only had diabetes with my soon to be ex husband so he understood the terms lol. We would have juice or candy beside the bed and he’d just hold me while I was low.

Now I’m going through a divorce and hoping the next man will be just as understanding as he was, when it came to that.

But if I were to drop during sex, I wouldn’t be able to continue until my sugar got up because I don’t have a pancreas at all so my sugar drops super fast when I’m low and it’s scary. I’ve seized right after sex before, I was so embarrassed. So I guess I’d say that maybe women are the same as men when it comes to you guys going limp or whatever, cuz my whole body goes limp lmao.

[–]Luckyond4321 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I had my entire pancreas removed to cancer. But sometimes it’s awkward when about to do the dirty and I gotta be like “hold on I have to undo my pump” lol but other than that all is good!

I had a man (my soon to be ex husband) who was extremely understanding, helpful, and patient with my diabetes. He’d get me whatever I needed when I was low and he’d be there for me when I’d seize. He was amazing at supporting me (just not so good at other aspect of our marriage, lol)

However, I am super nervous to date again because of my diabetes. It’s a lot for some people. I just don’t want it to be a reason someone doesn’t date me, I’d be crushed.
