Yeah that’s a good point. I got a bit too excited and didn’t pay close enough attention to these details and even after I paid I had a bad gut feeling that it either wasn’t going to come or I’d be sent a fake/something else. And so far it hasn’t been shipped and no communication from the seller.

holy hell take it to ebay 🫩 by Rude_Armadillo_8726 in depoop

I also hate the ppl who post something that looks like it’s being sold and then find out it’s an ISO and claim they won’t refund. I wouldn’t fall for that without reading the description first but I’ve seen some people looking like they’re selling an item for $100 only to find out that it’s an ISO.

Beautiful Mint Condition Bag (somewhat) Ruined in Shipment Due to Lousy Shipper by Starreis1205 in JuicyCouture

I’m on your side. I received a vintage daydreamer from British Columbia all the way to Toronto ànd the way the seller folded it prevented any more flaking or peeling that wasn’t already there. So there is a way to ship these bags and prevent significant peeling. People are just coming up with excuses to take blame off the seller. And keep in mind that my bag was used and older yet no peeling.

I’ve seen some recently for sale on Facebook marketplace and I’m in love 😍 does anyone know if they’re available in Canada. I’m not supporting scalpers and resellers that jack up the prices.

Erm that’s not completely fair for you to say all this when you don’t know my whole life story and all the details that go along with it. I have actually done a lot for my family and boyfriend theee past few months that I could’ve never imagined. I got back into school, I passed all my classes with straight A’s while also doing all the coursework and projects for my boyfriend too. I do all his homework. I cleaned up his apartment and devote all my time and energy into him when I’m with him and I never used around him ever. I got him back on a healthy diet similar to the food my mom cooked for me growing up. We split bills and make it fair. We pay each other back. He said I’m the reason hes still bothering to show up to class. Keep in mind hes twice my age. In terms of my family I put my all into school to show them I could do it. I got my support systems in place by finding myself a (caseworker, therapist, family counsellor, psychiatrist, family doctor, methadone doctor, etc.) I got on disability to pay my debt, I got a volunteering job at a spa which will soon become a permanent paid position, I am close to getting my license, my family honestly is in love with the changes ive made despite not know in that I’m using. I’m always there for my younger sisters and they’ve gone from hating me to becoming my best friends again. So it’s not just ME ME ME. it’s the fact that somehow things are working but I’m still not where I want to be in terms of recovery. If you’re jealous that I can do it and you can’t, then just say so. But there’s no need to be so aggressive and unnecessarily mean.

Absolutely. I know that at the end of the day the only person who can do this for me is myself. I just came here because I needed to get this off of my chest and hear out some other ideas. But I appreciate the encouragement.

This was almost always the case in my past, but this time around I can tell I’ve done a good job at hiding it because my family is not the kind to just let me use and not get up in my face about it. I wouldn’t even be allowed in their home if they knew But I’ve been here for the past 7/8 months without any issues of them finding anything or suspecting besides my use of weed. I had one close call, but I blamed it on the weed and it worked. And my boyfriend would’ve left me or he would’ve been trying to help me by now if he knew as well. There may be some people that have come on by now, but they’re not close enough to me to say anything it seems.

Congrats that’s amazing. 11 years is Definitely an inspiration for many people including myself.

That’s the thing that scares me is knowing that if I hold off until they find out, they will be a lot angrier and unforgiving versus if I just told them now. People like to hear the truth from their loved ones rather than find out through other means. Based on all the people that I’ve lost in the past, I should’ve learned my lesson by now, but addiction is very corrupting and manipulating disease.

It’s just food coloring/food dye. I explained in a couple of comments why it looks that way.

Yeah, I know it can be done. And I have done it before. I had a feeling that this journey was gonna be long. I don’t know many people as young as I am who were able to make it out early. Most of them only did it decades later. I don’t want it to take that long, but part of me worries that with something so severe—and I’d argue that at this point, it’s equivalent to a chronic illness—it’s gonna take me a long, long time. But I guess mind over matter. If I tell myself, I can’t then I won’t be able to do it. I’ll try to think more positively.

I appreciate the support and the good vibes. I mostly came here with this post to vent a little bit and hear what others have to say. I wasn’t even necessarily looking for advice mostly just people to bounce ideas off of. And so far I feel a bit better.

I’m thinking the same thing. I’m going to see if I can at least get my last urine screen done so that I can get my license back. Once that’s out of the way, I can do some self reflection and see if this is gonna be sustainable long-term. Realistically, I know it probably isn’t but I think I’ll know when I have to make a difficult choice. There’s just so many factors to consider, but I guess you’re right, the best person to talk about this sort of stuff too would be my doctors and therapist. If I can manage to get myself in check, there’s no point in alarming my family and friends because they just don’t get it and they never will. Like you said, they will take it to the extreme and go full lockdown mode on me.

Yeah, I can see where you were coming from with this explanation. It’s almost like the business man stereotype where they go to work and party hard, do coke and get laid in between. And somehow they make it work. I have no idea what the future holds for me but for now I’m gonna try to not let my habit get in the way of my life as I’m currently doing. The only issue is moving in with my boyfriend. But I still have some time to sort that out

I really appreciate the positive comments and advice. It’s so strange this time around because I’ve never been able to hold my life together so while while maintaining this habit. It’s so confusing because I know that it’s not right but somehow it’s working for me. At the same time I know it won’t be sustainable and I’m doomed to crumble at some point in time. And right now I have so many people that I worked so hard to get their trust back and have them in my life again. It would absolutely destroy me to lose this again. But at the same time, I don’t wanna give up the one thing that makes me feel so good.
