to everyone looking for help and hope please read for yourself overcoming narcotic addiction
well i am here to tell all who do not posses the power of struggle, i have been taking hard narcotics for 6 1/2 years those drugs made me do horrible things and things i am not proud of but i stand here today sober and clean and no more withdrawl feelings. i started out playing semi pro football and got injured with a spinal cord concussion and 2 lower herniated discs so that means yes i got prescribed oxycontin,vicodin,percocet,darvocet,roxycet,loritab,and methadone. and please anyone who is thinking about going to a detox place, please think twice about it. if you want them to fill your body with horrible drugs just to get you hooked on something else, its not worth it. there is no hope in clinics. i see doctors as drug dealers the more you come in the more they get payed especially right now in this economy. people i have taken oxycontin 80 mg 9 times a day, and 10 mg of percocet and vicodin 15 times a day, i was almost a freakin vegitable.
look plain and simple you are the one in control of your life narcotics are the devils drug, my withdrawls lasted almost a full year till my body got back to normal, the hard withdrawls where the famous feeling like a dead fish flopping outside of the water, cold chills, shaking badly after i woke up, couldent or dident want to move at all, throwing up for no reason, peeeing out of my rear end, pure hell..and like i said take control of your life and just stop, the reason your body is doing the withdrawls is because its doing its best to get back to its "a" game. what helped me was my strong will to survive i did this to myself and now i had to clean myself....there is hope pray to god or whatever you believe in. you do not need depression meds you do not need more drugs, shut up sit down and survive. i am clean now for almost 2 years now i have no cravings i do not want that again....point blank if my arm gets shot off, just pass me the tequila and a couple of advil

Entertaining read. All the best to the original poster -- you set a few people off 'cause your approach may work fine for you, but it's presumptuous in the extreme to suggest it's the only way to play it. Some rehabs have staff who give a damn, and a medically-assisted w/d is the wisest approach for heavy users ...
mr.lucky's pulled a few peoples' chain with his absolutism as well, but he makes sense. Just doesn't mince words, is all ... off subject here, but the flag thing kinda creeps me out ...
I think it was randy who asked about trazodone's sexual side-effects -- besides the old "Droopy Richard" thing at higher doses, there are rare reports of this a/d causing a condition called "priapism," or unusually lengthy erections. I can hear the one-liners forming in your minds, but (and I can't emphasize how rarely this happens, according to the manufacturers' information) if you're taking it and you, um, "stay alert" for two hours or more, you have to head to ER, unless you want to risk permanent damage to Richard, which may include The End Of All That Fun.
As an anti-depressant, it's rarely prescribed now that serotonin reuptake inhibitors have been refined with the SSRis and the SSNRIs, but as a sedative, in the short run, it's a useful alternative to addictive drugs like benzodiazepines.
Hope that helps.

you just showed your true colors are what you are all about with those comments.A big 0 bye! there's no REAL recovery here.
im sorry i cant understand you when you mumble. stop mumbling, im not here to argue with you and your the one that shouldent be taken seriously, and your the teacher? man no wonder the world is the way it is right now with people like you teaching others. and who says im upset, your just a walking example of what people can become. and what the hell is up with this drinking thing? who's drinking, your not worth the sweat off my forehead. man go get laid or something go play in the street or whatever you do. point blank mean people suck, and you my friend suck the big one..now ....have a nice day
I sorry that you are so upset and are coming unglued. You aren't making much sense and you should proof read what you write. I want people here to get through detox and stay off of dope if that's what they really want to do. All this other stuff about not taking meds and drinking is not nesesary. I have been posting here and have been clean off of dope and methadone for 6 years. The kind of junk you write shouldn't be taken seriously, I've seen much better.
you know i had this long comment i was gonna send you but your not worth my time. i have nothing to prove to you, people like you is why i dont go to chruch because they come right outside with that same negativity but before they plead to god for forgiveness. go give some one else negative thoughts do you even believe in god. this is what i worn people about the people who come around and say you cant do it when bull **** you can do it like i said before incase you dident i have been clean for 2 years actually going on my 3rd. you have no idea how powerful the mind is and this is why you go around with you thoughts of being REAL. the real thing was i would not accept my self being a junkie i would not accept myself being an addict yeah i think about it, hey i think about sex, hey i think about being a millionare i think about alot of things, wow does that mean i can control my thoughts..good luck to you in your path of reaking peoples lives which you sound like your pretty good at. you act like your the devil wanting people to fall back down. well good luck on that. I AM DIFFRENT I CHOSE MY LIFE I CHOSE MY DAUGHTERS AND MY WIFE I CHOSE TO GROW OLD IN HAPPYNESS. see here dude you learn alot when your alone in your mind i cant help those other junkies you call them dident choose. you have that free will to choose. i was very determined and to this day nothing can stop me. so good luck on your negative side of things and may god bless your soul cause i can tell you need it.
