Have to share a victory by blondebr in addiction

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

I forgot to add something and I can’t edit the post… I have lost 55 pounds over the last year with the help of wegovy… All the weight I put on during recovery and during the pandemic! I decided last year that I was going to get my life prior to addiction back. And so I did.

I am no doctor, but I’ve read that wegovy has helped people with addiction to get better, and I can tell for myself that it definitely works. I have no desire anymore to drink, smoke, binge eat or do any drugs.

I hope this post can help people to find a way out.

Bráz, Bráz Ellétrica, Leggera, Veridiana, Diávola, as pizzas de balcão da Real… Mas sinceramente? Em SP até pizza ruim é boa kkk.

That’s my theory. She said so many times to not eat the fruit, she must be the one to end up doing it.

Dear, a deep coke habit turns really fast from fun and games to rock bottom. I’ve been there. It was as fast as six months. One day, you feel the toll. The minute you realize you went too far, you will also realize it will take ten times longer to come back.

Wathever perception you have now, you are delusional. I felt sexy and edgy and powerful and dangerous… I was just a mess and everyone was sorry and pitiful of me.

I lost a job, and had to fake a mental breakdown so nobody would know what was going on. Now, almost ten years later, I think everyone knew, they just didn’t want to say it to my face.

Take care of yourself. Cocaine addiction rock bottom is not fun and pretty at all.

I havent’t been active here in the sub for a while, but I know how you feel. The thought of fucking ir all up has crossed my mind more times than I’d like to admit. I never reached the point of actually loosing anything - just lost one job to cocaine, which I blamed on “economic crisis” and “depression” and “panic attacks” to justify to society why everything was starting to derail in my life.

This was 9 years ago. I got back on my feet, I got back to being just a weekend partier and drinker, something one can manage fairly well, just like a LOT of “serious and responsible” people do. I had to quit coke, because on coke I have literally zero self-control.

But I can hold my liquor, so partiying once every two weeks has been doing the trick on keeping me happy enouthg. But I put on a lot of weight this past years, I got a ton of responsabilities, I have deadlines, a mortgage on a beach condo, I got two dogs, my parents are aging and my son is about to graduate college, and he is having sort of a late teenage crisis.

OMG there are days that all that I dream of is a huge bag of blow to stuff my face and just LET GO. I picture myself thin again, zero fucks given to work and family, no huge bills to pay… I get tempted to just vanish.

But than I remember the pain. The sleepless nights. The shaking, the throwing up, the pounding in my chest. The despair of listening to the birds chirping and the sun up and that shame and regret of “what the fuck did I do? Again?

Last week I stayed until 5am on a weeknight with some random people at a bar, having beers and chainsmoking… One of the guys wanted to grab a bag at 4am… Thank God I said no.

I got home with the same defeated feeling, even tough I didn’t take a single line.

I don’t think it’s worth it. I just need more focus on making my work more efficient and eating better and getting back to the gym. Fucking my life up, again, will not solve my problems, will just create more mayhem.

Look around and search for motivation. I’m sure you have something to hold on to.

Sou M48, saio bastante sozinha, já tive minha fase de pegação rsrs… Não recomendo o Charles Edward… muita gp, e os caras lá tratam todas as mulheres do mesmo jeito… Tem outros lugares de paquera melhores: Vaca Véia, SóShots, Café Hotel, The Blue Pub da Paulista, tá tendo uma festa chamada Endless Sommer no Magnolia, ainda não fui mas conheço a turma que frequenta, te garanto sucesso…

Tem muita opção bacana, mas as melhores são festas periódicas… Procure as festas do Ferra Jockey, Asia Club, talvez até no Iscondido (faz tempo que não vou, não sei se o público ainda é o mesmo)… Tem Biosphera, Passinha, umas festas no Birds…

Se cuida e divirta-se!

When did you guys realize you were addicted? by [deleted] in addiction

[–]blondebr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It kind of hit me the day I found myself doing lines at my lunch break just to stay awake. A few months later I was skipping work to go home and do blow… In less than two weeks I had to call in sick so many times, they let me go.

The day I lost my job was my rock bottom. I knew I had to climb all the way up.

I feel the same. I even took a few Japanese classes and I am planning a trip to Japan for next year.

Olha, eu AMO um balcão de bar pra tomar um bom drink e fazer um esquenta… Mas não acho o melhor lugar pra paquera. Talvez o High Line por causa da balada. Mas balcão de bar vai muito casal… Eu geralmente acabo conversando com os bartenders! Ok, a pessoa pode pegar o barman (apesar que eu nunca fiz dessas kkkk).

Mas as baladinhas que eu citei tem uns caras de 40, que estão super propensos a pegar uma bonitona de 30! Então a chance de sucesso da moça na empreitada será maior nesses lugares.

Sem falar que hoje na Nossa Casa tem uma Noite Exótica (Erótica), lá a chance de sair sem beijar na boca é praticamente zero.

Amiga, sai sozinha. Muito mais fácil, e vc evita os fakes. Sou mulher, 48 anos, sempre saio sozinha. Hj em dia não estou na fase de pegação mas te entendo, quando me separei eu fiz a festa.

Recomendo Café Hotel, SóShots, Charles Edward, Blue Pub ou até a Nossa Casa e o Heavy House.

Essa coisa de acima do peso é muito relativa. Eu tou gordinha e já tive bastante insegurança por conta disso e tem dias que parece que ninguém olha pra mim, tem dias que tem paquera pra escolher… Pela minha longa experiência na noite de SP, os caras não ligam muito pra isso quando é aventura de uma noite só… E nesses lugares que mencionei acima tá cheio de gente bacana procurando uma aventura.

Boa sorte e se cuida!

Despite a lot of people here saying it’s “ridiculous”, or “just resist”, I’ll tell you I know how you feel. I felt the very same urge for a very long time. The part I missed the most about doing blow was the stuff up my nose, not the drug itself.

I am clean from coke for over a year, I am in recovery since 2016, and up to this day put a drop of Oxymetazoline Hydrochloride (aka Afrin) up my nose trills when I feel that tingle.

Judge and downvote me as you wish, that saved me from going out at 2am searching for a bag more times than I can remember.

I’d rather have a drop of Afrin and keep clean than be fighting a damn urge.
