any other /addicts/ out there
how do you cope? I've been self-medicating for all my life but I'm starting to lose control. I was never one to ask for help with my mental problems, I just treated the symptoms of it. nobody knows I'm an addict. I am quite high-functioning and seem like a well situated and socialized young lad to everybody.
I have to get off all this junk and go to a psychiatrist I think. get some SNRIs or antipsychotics or something.
Addicted to
>benzos and other downers, take them every night
>uppers like adderall or plain speed, almost every day
>alcohol, drink every night
>500-1000mgs of caffeine a day
>a pack of cigarettes every day
also, I have chronic pain due to a spine condition. the doctor might prescribe me some opiods like tramadol, but I should refuse, because I am likely to abuse it too. the pain is hard to manage.
what the fuck do I do now? my body and mind are equally messed up and I am afraid of asking for help. they might throw me into the looney bin if I truly pour my heart out to them. but I cant really maintain this situation for much longer. I know I'm rambling like a madman but you guys are the only ones I can honestly talk to and there's a lot on my mind.
any other polytoxicomanic Anons who got their shit together have some advice for me?
also general bitching and moaning and drug discussion bread

What country are you in OP? Makes a big difference to recovery paths. Also; how old are you?

Balkan shithole country where they would jail me for getting caught with a joint. pretty paranoid about somebody recognizing me so I can't tell you much.
I am in my early twenties, doing good in uni, have a nice career ahead of me. I would surely be banned from working if somebody found out the shit I'm in. that's the main reason I don't go to the psychiatrist. had a friend who got diagnosed with acute psychosis and he was kept in for a week. that stays in your files for life.
I need to do something but I dont want to be put in the loony bin and dont want them to end my career. I dont know if quitting everything is a good option either. I started self medicating because I was in a bad place and was not functioning properly. without drugs I would surely have killed myself or went completely bonkers.
