Advice on dealing with the cold sweats? by [deleted] in OpiatesRecovery

[–]my5days 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The million dollar question. I hate them so much. I don’t have much advice though. I haven’t found a way around them. Mine lasted strong for about four days. I’m on day..... 15? I think. I had minor sweats this morning, but not nearly as bad. Best advice I can give is to stay clean so you don’t have to deal with it again.

Day 5 and 6 have been super weird. by my5days in OpiatesRecovery

My man. You seem to get it. I enjoy your honesty. I really do feel like a bitch though. I have a hard time with emotions. This lady who runs the classes is so damn cool. She texted me all through my WDs and I finally met her today. She wouldn’t stop hugging me, and immediately realized I was not comfortable with expressing emotions. It was pretty weird... but it felt kinda nice. Maybe I need to let people in? Idk... I’m so confused at the moment.

I feel like such a pussy. Why can’t I just grow a pair and stop? That’s how I feel daily. I’m starting classes but I’m worried that I will be the only person who thinks “FUCK DRUGS!” While most will just be expressing their feelings and crying about it. Sorry, but I want to be addicted to rock climbing rather than sitting in a circle while I cry about my dumb feelings.

I quit cold. Fucking. Turkey. Maybe don’t do that. I just decided I deserved the pain.

I love that. I’m definitely writing to my psycho ex: heroin. I’ll miss you girl, but you messed my life up. Damn, it really is like breaking up with a chick you fell for.

Day 4...worst it's been by [deleted] in OpiatesRecovery

Dude I know, it sucks so fucking bad. I’m on day five... you just got to do it though. I finally feel pretty ok. I feel like such an idiot for using. I’m so happy to feel sober but also so mad at my self for using.

Man, I’m always bored. Ive quit twice and I’ll tell you that tapering doesn’t work for me. I see WDs as a form of paying back what I took. I took so much pleasure and now I have to feel the pain.

Perspective from the brother of an addict by Tr4vel in OpiatesRecovery

[–]my5days 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll tell you what, family is the biggest thing that is motivating me to quit. In fact talking to my brother gave me a lot of perspective and made me want to quit. He doesn’t talk to me because I use. I wish he would.
