I’m in an area of the world where I have to hug my pillow and hanker down….absolutely no understanding of the disease where I’m from…… man up. That’s my world

My son went onto an injection called barberdoll I think and he is doing great do you know anything about the injection

I beat it. I still love them.. but i know better.

I’m not proud to say it, I got in real deep with Vicodin and Percocet in 2000, lasted 13 years. I did have legitimate script for it,also klonopin, Ativan, llyrica. In 2006 I got prescribed 100 mg fentanyl patches,medicine for 3 days. Never used a needle. I quit after I lost insurance.Way too expensive. Some cravings and side effects lasted a year. I’ve used gaba for 4 years,900mg daily,but I usually am out after 3 weeks. So I’ve gone thru some type withdrawal once a month for 4 years. It’s not fun,usually it’s the insomnia gets me worse.

There’s no easy rides kids…You will have to pay the piper either way

But cigarettes, alcohol, and prescription opioids are better huh ⁉️😂

Kratom haters are such clown mofos

Ativan = lorazepam, Xanax = alprazolam, for those who want a simple explanation without the fluff.

On a personal level with me , thc can produce a paranoia similar to hallucinogens that is more related to the person or the mindset as opposed to stimulant psychosis which seems to be more of a direct physical affect on the brain resulting in a worst case of almost delirium

Doc I have some questions and maybe you can help?

I was on pain medication and everyone was talking so bad about it. The doctor put me on Suboxone. Well I had to see a new doctor and they were taking me off Suboxone and I kept telling them and help my pain and that doctor said no it does not help pain. It’s not for pain, so I got all supplicate and down to 25 mg and all my old pain problems back pain carpal tunnel pain has all come back worse than ever so now I don’t know if I should come off the supplicate because I don’t wanna start taking pain pills again besides no one will give you any

It's hard man

There's nothing 𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑑 about acute withdrawal...just unless you're REALLY REALLY tapering down slowly.

I smoke meth all the time and have for since before cameras were installed in all the lightbulbs. I smoked meth for so long i can remember when TVs couldnt spy on you.....back before people spied on each other with drones all the time. Yall be driving me nuts with these drones that put thoughts in your head u hate those things... bottomline its not caused by smoking meth because it only started 6 weeks after i started smoking it.

I'm taking 2mg every other day currently, and continuing to taper. I'm ready to be done with this depression and apathy

Took 36 days of straight hell to get off xanax and methadone.....yes, im still alive

For me it was a comforting warm feeling that took away my pain and allowed me to function better. I will never feel that kind of euphoria ever again mainly because the suboxone blocks it and it’s probably for the best since I became out of control with the constant need for higher doses of the Percocet.

they put me on pregabalin for severe benzo withdrawal. I've never abused it and take it twice a day like supposed too. I have trouble when I tried to come off it though. it's withdrawal feels similar to benzo withdrawal

How do we help a family member that we believe is going through cannabis induced psychosis? My brother is 19 about to be 20 and I believe he’s going through this. We’ve took him to several ERs, the one he just seen finally got him a psych evaluation but the psychiatrist said she doesn’t believe he should be in a psych ward but he’s going through so many episodes at home. He quit 8 days ago but it seems to just getting worse. Our family history has no mental health disorders as well.

120 grams worth of kratom a day by doing up to 6 bottles of Feel Free. Super gnarly . On day 3 , doing as much healing as possible as i endure the fucking acute withdrawals , good grief. Try everything in your power to somehow not have the insomnia or lessen it in any way you can, especially if you have to work hard everyday. Exhaust yourself with exercise , eat healthy, megadose vitamin c , take magnesium , cbd , melatonin, valerian tincture , dlpa is really good , etc. Lots out there. Smoke joints, bong or eat weed butter for sleep. For me personally , time in the sun , swimming and surfing changes my chemistry and makes me forget , cold water plunges too. Those are very healing for the system. For the kratom users , remind yourself that youre not in the hell that the opiate addicts are in , or worse heroin or fentanyl and shit like that. Everything should be ok after a month of diligent recovery.

But tnahk you doc. Ill stop now.. this ruins my life...

I relay feel quit meth wene i go to our province... That i see nothing than nature .. meth is realy psychology teasing.. i just find good thing in meth,. I looses my apetite to eat. It lowers my weight. Thats what ive observed. But still not good though...

Gabapentin is pretty miraculous for PAWS in AUD treatment, and has by far the lowest abuse potential of any anxiolytic... no euphoric effects and pretty much just puts one to sleep if they take too much. It's also very self-limiting due to rapid tolerance acquisition and rapidly diminished bioavailability at doses over 1000-1500mg. I would not want to be in this guy's care if I needed treatment. He seems like he's very stuck in outdated thinking and modes of treatment with a reflexive, irrational skepticism towards anything new that's come along regardless of the efficacy or risk profile, just because it runs against what he learned in school however long ago...

I was hooked on hydrocodone. At my worst i was taking about 15 to 20 10mg pills a day and led me to getting them on the streets. After almost losing everytbing, I finally broke down and got put on suboxone. This helped me get off pain pills, but I was then hooked on the suboxone. I finally got tired of living that life after being an opiate addict for about 23 years(I'm 41) and quit the suboxone cold turkey. Told myself if I could make it through the suboxone withdrawals I was done for good. It took about a month but I dang sure did it! I'm finally free from opiates for the first time since I was 17 or 18yrs old. I still feel like my brain is trying to get used to it but my body finally feels like it's functioning normally on its on without the help of opiates that I used to depend on just to be able to function. I'm only about 2 months clean and sober but I can guarantee 💯 percent the hell I went through from my addiction, I will never touch another opiate for as long as I live. I was on the verge of suicide for awhile and totally depressed 24/7. I thank God for giving me the power to lay it down on my own. Trust me, if I can do it, anyone can. I was one of the hardest and most miserable times of my life getting through the withdrawals, but I did it!

Forget Prozac, Lexapro, etc. For me there was no better anxiolytic/ anti depressant on the planet. For back pain in the early 2000’s, I was prescribed 120 40mg of OxyContin, 90 10mg of Percocet for “breakthrough pain”, and 90 1mg of Xanax. I don’t care who you are, this would get anyone into some kind of trouble. I don’t think you would get this if you were in hospice now. I don’t blame anyone in particular. It was fairly common back then.

Im 4 days off suboxone and man im hurting bad 👎 i just wanna know how long this withdrawal will last bc i only took 2 months worth of suboxone i feel like im dying my last dose was monday and its now friday

Important to also remember that some people just became dependent on the medication and then got cut off!!! I know people who took there medication exactly as prescribed and never did anything else but what a broken healthcare system told them to do or should I of said sick care instead of healthcare. They kept said people on the medication for years and then just dropped them one day after years of prescribing narcotics. No weaning off system for patient’s or referrals. Just the boot. What do you think most of these dependent patients did after that?

I also only use it if i think im at risk of seizures

Gabapentin helps me but ONLY if I use it once or twice a week. One pill with a soma and I won't feel dope sick for half a day!!!!! But I think it's very harmful. If it's a quick fix? Its got a long term consequence!!!!! Remember that!

Thank You !!!

How long does it take to leave your body if your heavy

Finally!!!! Someone who specializes in addiction and recovery SAID IT.... THE TRUTH & I know everything about what he's saying being a recovering addict myself.

It introduces you to drug dealers who want to sell you drugs to make money. It’s opportunity and availability Just try it. You’ll like it. Weed has low physical withdrawal and dependence. Most others don’t. It’s the upsell that gets you.

Few if any first time drug users say to themselves "I want to start doing drugs". Don't get me wrong, drugs are great but they are pushed. Your best friend is your drug dealer and your a customer to your drug dealer.

Dr B my wife was recently prescribed a low dose of gabapentin for fibromyalgia she hasn't used for 5 years do you think its ok.

Kartom mix wit Mountain Dew and lean

I use for nerve damage

I was prescribed Gabapentin for alcohol PAWS and somewhat for anxiety. Aside from sleepiness the first day or two, I've had a favorable experience. For me it was a good fit.

Is breathing cardiopulmonary tightness result. 48 hours off only 2 month use

Gabapentin is trash 🚮

This probably the longest time he acted normal for once😂

Bigtime. I know it's not Gaba, but 400mg of Pregablin would cause very severe seizures. That said, I did use to use it for Opiate withdrawal as it seemed to help. But its overall a horrible drug. The withdrawals of Gaba/PreG are some of the worst I've ever seen. Thankfully, it wasn't me going through them.

Yeah, big pharma says it's dangerous. ! Bullshit! can't be any worse than opiates. Awful! it's all about money!

Is there a difference between buprenorphine/naloxone versus buprenorphine only formulations when it comes to the tapering process?

Ive been taking prescription pain killers for 10+ years Hydros, oxycodone not in any danger of dying but i really wanna stop because i spend 70% of my income on them and im tired of the way i feel when i don't have them which seems like all the time what is the best treatment to help me get through withdrawal i just wanna feel how i felt before i even knew what a prescription pill was Only real prescription Oxys-hydrocone No heroin or fentanyl ever

did you relapse on spice ?

Wow Wish u were my doctor

Im now use benzo 0,25 Mg,i use it 3x in a day..may i stop it now or must tapering again? I have anxiety disorder so that i use benzo from docter

What about the tendency for caffeine to increase glutamate? Isn't glutamate thought to play a main role on addiction?

It has not worked very well for me.
