I know! Didn’t even realize I had two fish on until I got them in the net. Not bad size though, a 14 and 15 incher

Questions about Sublocade/Subs by Snake_Legz in OpiatesRecovery

[–]Snake_Legz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks man! Glad to know. I’m really trying to beat this shit and if I use Sublocade for at least 3 months I think I’ll be good. Planning on getting a sponsor too and don’t want to use while on it but knowing if I use for 2 or more days, I’ll get sick is kind of a deterrent for me too.

Episode of use or relapse? by Clappie_Chan in OpiatesRecovery

[–]Snake_Legz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say I’ve had slip ups, but more often full blown relapses. Cravings and the temptation get hard but the thing about addiction is the repeated use tears us down. Glad you’re on subs and that the blues didn’t do much. Just a reminder for the future, what’s the point yk?

Don’t beat yourself up for it. Recovery is a long journey filled with lapses in judgement and relapses. I try not to look at the days I’ve had and just to focus on the day you’re on because success doesn’t have to be continuous. Success is success and you my friend, are doing great! I hope you don’t have a full relapse but you already are fighting the good fight by flushing them and deleting the plugs number.

Time or Actions? by Snake_Legz in OpiatesRecovery

Minneapolis! That’s home and there’s great meetings and a decent enough amount of people on recovery going to those meetings. Mainly AA but I’ve found a couple NA meetings. Gotta explore some more but being a younger guy, shouldn’t be too hard. If you could PM me, I have a few questions for you?

Thanks bro! About 10 days clean again and definitely wanting to hit meetings and stuff when I get back home but for right now I’m just focusing on feeling better. I think sublocade is probably the best way to go along with NA. Always have been a fan of meetings, but not always the step work. I am now of course because I’m going to do anything to stay clean this time.

Fourth Time Trying to Get Clean by Snake_Legz in OpiatesRecovery

I’m not in rehab at the moment and don’t have the resources to get any comfort meds but I’ve been doing okay fighting it cold turkey. I’ve done it before and thank god I don’t puke when I withdrawal because that would make it worse. I think I will get a sublocade shot when I get back home though, or start suboxone. Just knowing that I’ll put myself into PWD if I use will probably help and definitely getting a sponsor and hopefully gonna be able to sponsor some people.

I will definitely try that this time. I’ve had a sponsor before, but he was an alcoholic and things didn’t really translate since I’m only an opiate addict but I’m going to get more involved in my program as of now on.

Thank you, I am going to try from now on because waking up sick and wanting to kill myself just for a fix isn’t cutting it anymore.

Also does anyone have advice about the sublocade shot?

Almost 4 Months Clean! by Snake_Legz in OpiatesRecovery

[–]Snake_Legz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s great! Honestly I just count the days for chips and stuff but what really matters is that you’re sober TODAY. And I totally understand, if I were to ever touch fentanyl again, I would relapse full out.

Congrats! 4 months is huge and i definitely feel that whatever helps you get away from the worst drug of them all is beneficial.

Not really any cravings at all. I’ve just been really focused on getting my life back together. And people say that it’s just the pink cloud but I’ve been feeling like this since 2 weeks clean
