i am finally embarking on a trip to rehab sometime today or tomorrow morning.... it should be the toughest thing i have ever done but im ready and willing to do whatever it takes to be done with his addiction.

its been to long since i started and im just tired and exhausted from this life and want nothing more than to change. i understand the odds of me getting clean and staying clean are so slim but i dont give a fuck because i am a strong person and beside all the things that have happend i know i can make it out...... so thanks to all those who messaged me to see how i was doing and all that jazz

i will probably post in 4-6 days right after detox when i get home but will more than likely be shipping off to some long term treatment after that.... so  peace newschoolers while i embark on a journey to start living life the way it was ment to be lived.

Do you really think rehab will help you?


Addictions are killer, and everyone is addicted to something.

Too bad theres such a negative social stigma related to some and not others.

All addictions are a road to pain, suffering, isolation, abandonment, hopelessness, sadness and tragedy.

What you need is someone you care about and who cares about you to be at your side all the time, to entwine your lives together, thats the answer, i think. You need something in life that is better, more satisfying. The only thing more powerful and more satisfying than addiction (especially to amazing (ly destructive) drugs) is the love you have for : Another person, A passion (dream), or rising up and filling yourself with the strength and resolve to be the stone pillar you know you are indside.

I won't wish you luck, because luck has absolutely NO place here. This is ALL YOU. Do or Die. Be strong, and know you are not alone. Far, Far from it.

-S.

that does sound real nice but it doesnt really work that way. after 3 years strong on the shit my head is very fucked up. i dont know how to love, be sad, cry, be angry or anything of that shit without being on heroin. i know that sounds weird but look up PAWS (post acute withdrawl syndrone)

its been so long i might not be able to do things i can easily do now (especially things i have learned while being on heroin ( on it since 16 and now 20, thats a lot of stuff)

so i wish i didnt need rehab but its much more complicated that one might think.

im going to be harsh because you hav eto be with this kind of stuff.

Its not the drug.

Any drug can lead to that.

Its not just the drug, its the lifestyle

Isolation makes you unable to have appropriate emotional responses.

Drug lifestyle leads to isolation.

Video game addicts are victims as much as any heroin addict.

People die from deep vein thrombosis from sitting too much.

It can KILL you.

Obsessive habits can stress you out so much you get heart disease, or stroke, or anything related to stress, which is everything.

Worrying about dirty dishes every day can KILL you..... ok well, not really... and I don't mean to make light of the tragic relities of the druf world. But pot does the same thing. YOu think youre so fucked up, well everyone is.
The ones who make it" in the social and business world - look at the psychos who kill their wives, babies, normal middle class urbanites shooting their neighbours.... everyone is fucked, and pretending were not leads to these neighbors and husbands, wives doing these terrible things.

Would you ever rape a child and then preach mass the next day?

Don't get swallowed by your own self pity and cast off the wieght of your struggle, nothing is worth it...

SOunds nice, doesnt it.


so whats the problem.
shouldn't this be easy?

No.

I don't think so.

Some do.

I may even say most do.

i dont get what that has to do with me forgetting maaad shit and not being able to complete simple tasks because the wiring of my brain is all fucked up. with seritonin build up its impossible to release with out the opiate receptor getting what it wants when you have been addicted for so long....

so i have no clue how your being harsh or how im in my own self pitty? maybe i read that wrong.....

I've had a bunch of friends go through rehab over the years and they've all come out as stronger and happier people.  I wish you the best of luck, and sincerely hope you find something to care about that isn't as destructive.

good job steppin up to the plate bro, keep it real. from what i've heard you never really get over an addiction, you just need to learn to live with it. I know a guy who was addicted to coke, but when through rehab and came out clean as a whistle, and still is. he says his entire outlook on life has changed, and his love for skateboarding keeps him going.

so do the same for skiing! goold luck
