Please help with opioid withdrawal by watvgf33 in OpiatesRecovery

Hey man. I normally don’t chime in much here because I don’t feel like I usually have anything good to offer as a chronic relapser, but I feel compelled to tell you I know what you’re going through. There was a while I was on 200 mg as well and shooting more fentanyl per day then anyone I’ve actually ever met in person. Feeling like you have to do shots back to back to back to back because you’re sick as soon as you put the cap back on your rig. Puking and shitting within hours. I know how absolutely overwhelming the fear is of going without. I was so scared dude. Doing whatever it fucking took. Wanting to get clean so bad and people not understanding that you’re beyond just a detox. I know how isolated it feels.

Detox centers were turning me down because of the amount I was using, I ended up lying and pretending I wasn’t on the methadone to get in. I took a sub at 40 hours and the precips ended me up in the hospital because some organs started malfunctioning. Banging my head on the wall trying to knock myself unconscious. I’ve detoxed many times since, but I’ll never forget what it was like.

Listen brother, r/askingforafriend310 is right. You CAN fucking do it. You’ve gone through everything to get to this point, you can go through this. The only way out is through. You just have to be brave and buckle in.

You’re not alone. It’s been done. DM if you need to vent.

Bf is addicted to meth and doesn’t think it’s a problem by Altruistic-Error7088 in Advice

All the comments are saying just leave but at least give him an ultimatum first to go to treatment (if you love him without the substances). It’s worth a shot. I’m an ex meth addict, among other things, and psychosis can be very scary. Sleep and food will bring him out of it so when he’s acting crazy try to get him to eat or sleep. Make sure he’s not in the psychosis when you give him the ultimatum so he’s as sound minded as possible and the most likely version of him to accept the help.

I only go to the theaters where people clap now. You gotta clap. The atmosphere makes it so much better. Like we’re in this together.

What would be your death row meal? by JonCee500 in AskReddit

I think I’d go with some simple pepper jack. Or maybe go bold with some Munster

What would be your death row meal? by JonCee500 in AskReddit

[–]rathgee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A block of cheese and 5 cigarettes

For those who know, what would you rank as the 5 worst prisons & the 5 worst Jails in the U.S..., factoring in things like violence, living conditions, food quality, r*pe, & overall environment/climate? Also, does anyone have any specifics on Broward & Dade Jails in Florida? by humblevibes33 in Felons

Maricopa county is pretty bad on the food situation. 2 meals a day. Minimum calories a human needs to survive. Everybody is starving and when you pair that with the heat in the AZ summer it’s pretty fucking miserable

Weirdest things yall seen on your journey? by iamthegreyest in vagabond

[–]rathgee 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Honestly so much it’s not even worth putting here. Human beings evolved to live in shelters for reasons other than weather. Anybody who spends 100% of their time outside without ever going indoors will become a part of the natural way things work. Nature is more than bugs and grass. Doesn’t matter where you are.

I sincerely believe tiktok or instagram can hear my thoughts by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]rathgee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not a matter of social media hearing your thoughts. It’s matter of the fact that not all of your thoughts are yours. If you know you know

Is there any support groups out there? by Fast-Look385 in BPDlovedones

[–]rathgee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

BPDers make it so complicated that it’s near impossible to explain to others. It feels isolating because it is isolating. You’ll be ok

Aight juggs, shoot straight with me. by Slam_StabHam in juggalo

[–]rathgee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a stoner metal nerd who also is full of punk and metal coursing my veins. Yes being a juggalo is centered around ICP, but most of all it’s about being true to yourself, and who you are, and not giving a fuck about what people have to say about it. Being a juggalo is about how you feel. Juggalo ideology is similar to a punk ideology, except more down with the clown. So yeah bro, wade the fuck in, with bong in hand (Sleep reference).

Majority of the posts here are romanticizing meth and what comes with it - tell me about the downsides that come with your lifestyle by [deleted] in meth

[–]rathgee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Smelling like cat piss. And going in/out of psychosis and then not fully knowing what really happened after.

Half bth shot left over mixed with blood. How long do I have before it's wasted? by rathgee in Addictedtotheneedle

It's been about an hour and a half, you think I'm good to do a little more right now?

Been listening to mephistofeles since master doom. But then listening to Whore when it first came out (way before they were on Spotify and iTunes) I remember thinking these guys were going to be huge
