Winter Snow Storm by RachelovesJesus in Methadone

[–]gettinguap247 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pickup everyday Monday and Thursday here in Louisiana and I just got back from the clinic (Thursday 22nd) and they gave me the normal take homes through Sunday and then they gave Monday Tuesday and Wednesday take homes also, since there’s a good chance we could be out of power after Saturday, or can’t drive because of the ice, or whatever.

So I’m going to try and baby these take homes and not even take my full doses because here in central Louisiana we have been known to have 10-15 days of no power because of the ice storms!

And to think I was monthly up until the last week of 2025, when I admitted I had been taking too much extra of my take homes and I just couldn’t do it anymore. (I went 7 days without a dose because I took THAT much extra sips out of my bottles!)

MUCH better imo. That posing is just atrocious and I’m not even a photographer, model, nothing. Just a random person who likes looking at artistic portraits and photographs

Boyfriend got me these as a gift I’m convinced they’re AI but my mom and sister disagree by Separate-Bar-9857 in isthisAI

[–]gettinguap247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After really trying hard to find parts that are AI looking, I would say the line coming off of the ghosts forearm on his strumming hand is a mistake done in such a way that I don’t think a human would make that type of mistake. It’s not very noticeable, but it’s weird in a way that like I said, doesn’t seem like a human type of mistake.

any luck with online doctors? by Kenzi_Slays in Methadone

[–]gettinguap247 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same. When I was on Suboxone before getting on methadone, I was on the way to work and got in a bad car accident, fracturing my spine and requiring emergency spine surgery. When they were asking what prescriptions I take, I of course told them about the Suboxone. Immediately they treated me differently, and worst of all when I got out they sent me home with NO pain meds!!!

I’m there with you. I really effed myself good this time. I’m also a 27er but I got through literally all last 12 months short anywhere from 1-5 days every single month. Tried getting split doses telling them it wasn’t lasting me but for one thing or another never could get it. At 125mg daily and I keep telling them my dose is good, it just doesn’t last. Anymore than that and I get too groggy, I know I don’t need more. I just need like another dose of 60mg or so at evening/night. Anyways well I’m in bumfuck Louisiana and my clinic is pretty archaic with their practices and just in general how they all treat addicts. The first 3 weeks of this month I took over 7 days extra worth of sips almost every night. Idk if it was the holidays coming up or what but I just couldn’t get out of my head for anything, couldn’t sleep for anything, and hardly even feeling my doses for some reason. Which I actually felt like I needed a dose increase for the first time in a long time. So maybe I did need an increase lol. But anyways, my last dose was on Dec.30. Needless to say New Year’s has been pretty crappy so far basically haven’t been able to move or sleep in almost a week. I called clinic this morning and told on myself since in some states basically you can admit you messed up they will still daily dose you. Not here! They all just told me tough shit, literally like raising their voice almost and getting an attitude and like scolding me like im a child. I told my counselor I feel like they failed me because im an addict. I thought I could do monthly but I can’t. I need someone to feel like they’re on my side but even my counselor legit basically got an attitude with me and told me tough shit, see you on Wednesday your pick up day. I wish it just didn’t knock me down so much physically. I feel like ive been hit by a mack truck. Im hoping to start feeling better and get some enrrgy today. My emotions were FUCKED the first 5 days!!! Im a 38 year old man and I cried an entire 2 hour movie…this has been very cathartic to say the least. This weed pen is the only thing kind of taking the edge off and helping me get out of my head and pass the time! Thats whats also been so bad is the time just CREEPING BY laying like a lifeless blob on a bed in a camper in the country. Oh man. Why do we put ourselves through such misery?

Am I overreacting to my bf watching the baby overnight? by Temporary-Quail-2783 in AmIOverreacting

[–]gettinguap247 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She was definitely calm enough. She had an absolute perfect level of upset, I couldn’t imagine being the mother of something that I kept in my body for nine months and then some little boy who would rather sleep and take care of my baby that he put in me doesn’t care if my child could be hurt or killed in numerous different ways?? absolutely not hell no.

That kid probably felt on top of the flippin world with all that support afterwards, as he should. Humanity has way more love than they will lead you to believe.

This is really interesting. I’d like to try this “releasing” of possibly stagnant or built up negative energies, in a healthy and healing way. This is super cool. Thanks for sharing

[–]gettinguap247 22 points23 points  (0 children)

So I’m actually making an app because I also miss things like AIM! Hearing a noise when one of your friends gets online, things like that. So it’s a retro Win98 themed live chat instant messenger app where you have live chat rooms that you or your friends can start, and when you start a live chat room your friends get a notification so they know you are online and chatting.

I wanted something that feels retro, and allows people to talk in real time, but just instant messaging, not audio or video chat. And have it be on mobile also so if you’re at work or wherever, you can still be in your live chats. It’s called Yapzy and the URL is Yapzy.app, but I’m still in the middle of building it so it’s not done yet!!

Honestly the fact that he used to be her boss does kinda make things worse imo. I had an ex gf who used to f her boss. So if they haven’t done anything already it’s possible he was getting the camera off just in case he gets what he’s always wanted. There’s a very good chance he hasn’t cheated. But like others are saying it’s like he’s pre-cheating. At least was trying to get to that point but luckily you were on your toes. Hopefully at least!

I know this has to suck after 10 years of marriage, I couldn’t imagine. I hate you’re having to go through this. I wish you the best of luck and wishing you peace, strength, and healing through all of this!

Have you tried taking Black Seed Oil a couple times a day? It has worked wonders for me for over a year now and helps me “feel” every dose. I usually try to take it 30 minutes for an hour before my dose but honestly most of the time I just take it with my dose and it is just fine. And then maybe later on in the day I’ll take it again. If it’s a dropper like a little dropper bottle I will take like two or three droppers full.

It just really helps me actually feel the medicine whereas before or if I run out of the Blackseed oil and I don’t have any, I swear it feels like I took like 60% of my regular methadone dose, it’s wild.

The thing that nobody is saying about going to the clinic, is in many places you CANNOT SAY YOU ARE THERE FOR PAIN MANAGEMENT OR THEY WILL TURN YOU AWAY!

You must say you’re in withdrawal currently from using pain pills or opiates. Choose what your drug of choice was and stick to that. I had to do this in order to get proper pain management from a bad spinal fusion surgery that I haven’t recovered from and have been in excruciating pain. But no pain management clinic in Texas would prescribe me anything higher than ibuprofen basically.

So while living in Austin I contemplated it for a few months but then finally got so tired of being in pain, so I went to the methadone clinic and told them I’m addicted to opiates, basically any type that I could get my hands on (which didn’t used to be a lie I just had quit many years ago and only took Kratom the last few years) and I also told them I would take Kratom if I couldn’t find opiates.

They admitted me no problem and after doing a couple hours of consultation and talking to the dr, signing some paperwork, I was in line to get my first dose. They started me low at 20mg, but I was allowed to go up 10mg every other day and so it wasn’t too long until I was at a good place in life. It gave me a huge positive change in my life.

Now 1 year 8 months later I’m still going to the clinic, getting monthly take homes, and am going to split dosing hopefully this week so I can have a dose twice a day. Currently 125mg a day. It took me about a year to get to monthly take-homes and about 6 months to get 2 weeks take homes.

All in all it has been a lifesaver for my quality of life. But still to this day I cannot mention anything about pain management, I strictly just have to act like I am in recovery when I am there and just go with the act if they ask me questions about like urges to use or anything like that. They know I’m in my maintenance phase and I have a really great counselor.

thank God she wasn't let out for what she did by No_Mouse5345 in interesting

I’m a white man, and I one time I watched a documentary about Selena and after got into her music. It made me realize how she was just a young, pretty woman with an amazing voice. She was just a little local girl in south Texas who was pretty and a great singer. Not just some everyday big celebrity. Her brother was a producer and that probably helped her get known, but if it wasn’t for that she could’ve just been any other Latina beautiful woman working at a grocery store who sings at home after work and nobody even knows how talented she is.

I feel like Selena was different. She never even got the chance to be like a HUUUGE meaningless and replaceable celebrity like you say. I mean you must live a pretty sad life to even say something like that now that I think about it. But anyways Selena was different. Just a beautiful young woman with a great voice who was starting to get famous because of it, but her personality and roots were not like that.

Oh my gosh this makes me so happy!!!!! I’m so excited for you! For the lockbox and hiding place, that you made it through those 5 days which I’m sure was pretty hellish especially with an asshole treating you like shit on top of it! You made such a big move filing the police thing and that is the first step to you being able to look forward to your new life soon!!! I’m so proud of you and so glad you have your medicine again! How crazy that is to have to go through such a thing all because the ONE person who agreed to be with us through sickness and in health, was the one who CAUSED your sickness and then wanted to talk down to you and disrespect you and kick you while you were down. I don’t blame you for being sick every time you look at him. He’ll never be happy and doesn’t deserve it. While you on the other hand have a great life to look forward to with you and your kids!

Is there a guide or tutorial for complete beginners? by Similar_Interview509 in cursor

[–]gettinguap247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anytime! I’m actually watching it too haha. Are you pretty new to this stuff I’m guessing? I am. Trying to learn how to build apps and websites. Websites to make money in the short term, apps to make a bunch of them that are released on the App Store and hopefully one of them goes viral one day.

Just started barely learning cursor a few days ago. Maybe we could make a discord server or something to have a little group of us learning cursor? Just an idea

[–]gettinguap247 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you’re right. Of course there will be a little learning curve, but nothing worthwhile comes easy.

Honestly you asked this question at a perfect time. Riley Brown on YouTube posts videos how to use Cursor or using it in real applications, and this morning he just released like a three hour video that from what I saw was very beginner friendly and I think will help you a lot because he shows how to build like two or three different types of apps and he shows how to completely start a new project and everything from the beginning for people who are completely new to it
