    this is the type of person i have so much empathy for. she’s so full of shame and guilt. she’s not blaming the world, she knows what she’s done. i hope she’s able to recover or find a program because people who are victims of their own consequences in this regard still deserve help.

      We are all joined at the broken places - none of us better or worse than the other. I pray you drop the hammer & find the faith to climb out of hell - we are worth it, we are not our past nor does our addiction define us & you are not alone.
      Can’t wait for life to be good before you decide to be happy - my prayers to everyone sick & suffering in & out of recovery.❤❤

      ​@starsunmoon30 I live in Denver and struggle too. Problem with using sub is you have to be off fent for like 2 days or more and those days are a living hell and Problem with clinics is it takes forever to get into one and they are only open in early morning also they cost money....sometimes money you don't have. If you have a job it's a crazy balance to try to handle and keep the job at the same time.

    • @starsunmoon30
      @starsunmoon30 Před 3 měsíci +2

      @Placker8102 I think you can take sub after 24 hours of not taking anything else. The 1st signs if withdrawal true physical signs, you can take a Lil if it does well. Then take more . I do think the clinics want way too much $ but thier are marketplace health insurance that can make it cheaper . HTH.

    • @Placker8102
      @Placker8102 Před 3 měsíci

      @starsunmoon30 from personal experience I took a tiny sliver of a sub after 24 hrs and went into precipitated withdrawals witch is like withdrawals cranked up 100%. It probably depends on metabolism so some probably can after 24hrs some need to wait longer. Although methadone would work without that catch. The problem is they start you out on such a low dose and only let you go up by 10mg a day and I'm not a hardcore user I do around 10 a day and 30mg of methadone will have me not hurting for about 6 to 8hrs and then I start hurt really bad.

      It will come back I promise! I never did any of that stuff but just oxy.. a lot of it… and now I take suboxone. Honestly been on it for 13 years. My psychiatrist here in Seattle is amazing i see him every two months, he takes insurance. Don’t get me wrong. I have my bad days my very bad days and I get super depressed but I remember that I am OK I’m happily married to my best friend for 20 years. I have a home I have an amazing job and every day is a new day. Please love yourself and the happiness and joy will come back. 7 months is amazing but still very early and I can see why you’re still craving. Do you guys have hobbies? I redo furniture / paint it and sell it. When someone buys my work it’s the best feeling in the world knowing that I went from that to this! Keep good people around you and have a good support system. Have a great weekend and congrats on sobriety!!

      Amen! Kratom saved me from alcoholism. What’s crazy is I rarely drank till I was 27 and started working at a liquor store. We would get everything at whole sale prices so I would get it cheapest in the state basically. Within four months I was downing a handle every day and a half and still going to work no problem. It got bad real quick and I never cared for it before. These substances are nothing short of demonic. My heart goes out to everyone struggling.. I heard of Kratom and gave it a try. I loved it! But first 3-4 months I was doing both.. but after awhile I would puke everytime if I did both so God slapped me up a bit and saved my wretched soul. Stopped it cold Turkey and can’t stand the scent of booze much less drinking it
