I cannot quit. I can't tell my family and treatment isn't an option because fucking blue cross blue shield won't cover shit. Weening down sounds like it could be a good option... my arms look like someone went to town with a nail gun on them. I feel like shit and the high (while still awesome) is of course not what it once was. What the fuck do I do /b/??

I used methadone to ween off over a one month period. I've now been clean for 13 years. You can do it, OP.

>treatment isn't an option because fucking blue cross blue shield won't cover shit.

Find a methadone clinic that takes cash or state assistance. Just google around and you'll end up finding one. Call them if you aren't sure if they accept it or not.

You can apply for state-supplied (or charity-supplied) funding and if you are denied they will give you a hugely discounted rate. My friend is working through an Oxy addiction and pays $75 a month out of pocket for his methadone because his shitbag insurance company won't pay for it either. He didn't qualify for state or charity assistance, but it still only ended up being $75.

They'll probably make you go to at least one group therapy session and have a one on one with a counselor. They'll also make you do a piss test to make sure you aren't using anything else. (The one near me doesn't care about weed, just hard drugs.)

I quit a 5 year daily habit with a 6 month suboxone taper. It can be done. You just gotta want it. The pain and misery of that terrible habit has to override your want for the high.

And if you been banging dope for awhile, you don't realize just how awful you really feel 24/7. Get clean for 6 months and you will shocked, totally shocked, at how awful you actually used to feel, even when high.

Dope only feels good that first shot or after a long break. After that you just end up feeling worse every single day. Your normal hormones and brain chemistry are completely destroyed right now and you don't even realize it because you haven't been clean in so long.

Get counselling
Volunteer 1-3 hours a week doing anything for the public (you will break the stigma of your drug addiction and also be exposed to new new healthy people)
become 100% honest with yourself and everyone around you
take yourself out of that environment because "Pavlov's dog" effect will mean all your associations with the drug be it your house, possesions, drug mates and even town/city are constant reminders that will for lack of a better word "Trigger" you

>>734257205
my brother and his wife are addicts too anon, you need to realize that its as much a mental problem as a physical addiction. Normal people dont use, you need some real therapy and you need to tell your family now. Think of it this way, if you decide to wait to deal with it just one more day then you will forever be trapped into thinking, just one more time, just one more day. You need to do something about it now or you wouldnt be crying out to /b/ of all places. The people you know who use are trapped and suffer from mental diseases the same as you, they will be no help. Do something today or forever be trapped into using and destroying your life and those around you. You cant keep this a secret and your family already suspects.
>>
>>734257205

Whatever shit happened to you earlier in life, you'll need to deal with it before you can stay off. You can get rid of the chemical dependency relatively easily, but if you don't deal with your baggage, you'll relapse or get addicted to something else.

So. Counseling. Meditation. Etc., Rehab will want to detox you before they start you on these, but you can do them anyway. They'll still help even before you're clean. And if you stick with them, they'll start to make you feel better, and you'll be able to see past the end of your dependency.
>>
>>734257205
I've quit the shit and cut ties with people who wouldn't quit, including family.

Just fucking stop, man. Kratom will make it a lot easier initially, but shit will still suck for a while. Push through it. SMARTrecovery can help you, too. They're abstinencefags, but that's what a lot of addicts need to commit to, to actually get clean.

I have never been addicted but the process is pretty simple

>Need Surgery/Have Injury
>Get Oxycodone or Oxy like drug
>Enjoy relief and "recreational" side affects
>Run out of prescription
>Buy pills from friends/dealer
>Find out Heroin is SO MUCH CHEAPER
>Buy Heroin "Just to get through this bit until you can afford to buy oxys"

Its sad really. Its so easy to become addicted to that stuff. its a disease.

I'm 20
I'm a former "alcoholic", quit drinking cold turkey after 1 & 1/2 years and a pint of whiskey and 80oz's of beer. everyday, i was just drinking to get drunk everyday.
I quit 3 months ago cold turkey as it was costing me alot of money ($17-$22 a day), didn't think i could get withdrawls after just 1 year everyday. But sure enough about 36 hours clean the withdrawls hit me like a bar of soap in a sock, the withdrawls consisted of:
>Drastically increased heart rate, warming sensations throughout my whole body, cold sweats, whole body tremors, physical pain from head to toe, DT's (<-dilerium tremons=deadly), insomnia (<-8 hours of sleep in the first 72 hours), loss of coordination, loss of appetite, hypersensitivity in my stomach, anxiety, a delerius state of mind, throbbing headaches, nausia and vomiting, severe depression, and a seizure at day 3 of withdrawls.
It lasted for 4 fucking days!

Now im 3 months sober of everything.
The mixture of withdrawls, not eating enough, soda, and ciggeretes have me hypoglycemia which im currently battling through.

I grow my own weed which i can't even smoke (pic related, Bluepower from sincityseeds) because of hypoglycemia, I'm always felling like shit everyday.

I can't eat sugary treats, can't drink soda or coffee, I'm not suppose to smoke ciggeretes but i can't quit them(cut down to 6 a day though), can't eat carbs (pizza, pasta, bread, rice, etc) i can only get suger through protein and nothing else. If i got longer then 10 hours without a meal i immediately feel light headed, have blurry vision, increased heart rate, warming sensations, prefuse sweating, depression, dehydration, dried/tingling lips, and i get throabing in the left side of my face that fells like a heart pulse.

And for 2 hours after every meal i feel the same but some things are weaker and some are more intense then others. Everyday for the last 3 months. It would be easier for you to quit though OP. Alcohol withdrawls are on par with benzos..

EMTfag here - how you could play the system.

If you check into any hospital emergency room and say that you're having thoughts of suicide and that you have a plan of OD'ing on heroin soon because you want to die - They could potentially get you locked up for a free 2 weeks at a mental hospital where you would be treated for withdrawal and given counseling. A week or two clean and a scheduled placement with a methadone clinic won't hurt.

Your insurance would have to cover medically required shit. Worst you have to pay is your copay limit. But hey, your life is worth a few grand, right?

Eat more fat. The ordinary pathway for synthesizing blood sugar from scratch preferentially starts with fat and not protein.

Also, it'll take a while for your body to reach new equilibrium. Major gut flora, for example, lag major dietary changes by a few months. Other hormonal systems also have to stop oscillating

Stick with it, and you'll get to the other side of it.

OP don't listen to these faggots, i used to be addicted to xanax, im not gonna lie thru my ass n say the come down is easy, it's not, best advice, is this. take your last dose, n be prepared to withdraw, it's gonna feel like shit, you gonna have to bite the bullet but there's no other way around it. if you work, request a week off, if you don't than you're gravy. find a few shows in netflix to binge watch, because when you withdraw sleeping is not an option, so you might as well watch something that'll keep your mind off the comedown, you're gonna puke almost everything you put down, so have some pedyalyte ready, some soups. also get some comfortable pillows n a comfy covers. when you withdraw you gonna have cold sweats, no way around, you just gotta find a way to alleviate the pain, when you finish withdrawing, you're gonna always have the urge to use, don't hang around with your old friends that shot up, don't even go in the area where you see your dealer. anything that brings you close the the context before you shoot up, avoid it. find new hobbies to keep you busy, the goal is to get it out your system, n find ways to distract yourself n stay busy so you don't go back. god speed op.

As I was told, it's getting better in the past 3 months but it takes some time. He estimates 2 years AT MOST if the damage done was severe. Im thinking it may fade in like 5 months.
The only thing im having problems with is staying sober. Litteraly have jars of weed (i don't sell) and fresh, cleaned bongs staring at me everyday... sodas and coffee are hard too but not really hard to kick caffeine imho.
>>
Methadone saved me. Dr had me on a crazy amount of opiates, kept going up even after I told I thought I was becoming addicted. I was eventually on 75mcg fentanyl plus 4x20 oxy a day.

After I started on methadone (135mg a day), it took me 3 years to wean down slowly. I paid out of pocket $330 a month. It was hard, but not as hard as withdrawal. Been completely clean for 4 years. Consider it.
>>
Hey my man, I've been there quite a few times. Get on suboxone taper yourself down. You won't taper down with dope, we both know that. Find the lowest dose that makes you stable and drop down .5-1mg every 3 days. You will still have withdrawals but they are nothing like kicking dope cold turkey. Just do it, don't say you don't have the funds. A couple months worth of suboxone is so much cheaper than a couple months supply of dope
>>
>>734262648
>fresh, cleaned bongs staring at me everyday.

Put the bongs in a box and put the box in a closet. Out of sight, out of mind. No need for the constant reminder.

No need to get rid of them yet. If you have a crisis and need to relapse for a week, you'll have a known backup. Think of like a contingency plan if shit hits the fan.

You ruined the reward center of your brain. The only way you'll be able to quit now is by replacing the reward with something intense. I would say vigorous exercise on the regular could do it.
