Tim, stay strong mate . Please don’t punish yourself or cut yourself off completely. Please make sure you have your support. Love you brother ✊ You’ve got this. God bless.
I've found that hard exercise, breaking a sweat, really helps! It restores a chemical balance, allowing regenerative sleep, and a healthy appetite for food. Whenever feelings of dread, and cravings start to step forward, pickup the weights, and force them back into the background. All the Best to you! 💖
You can get through this, it doesn't undo all your hard work. It is a blip which you can overcome and put behind you. You know you can do this! Sending you much love and strength, Tim. Take care for now and be kind to yourself.
RIGHT CALLING ON ALL VIEWERS AND SUBSCRIBERS! LETS SHOW TIM SOME LOVE AND DONATE TO THE CHANNEL! HE NEEDS US NOW, SO SHOW HIM, WHAT HE MEANS TO US AND THAT WE’VE GOT HIS BACK! ❤👍
please take care Tim, I have been trying to get clean since 2009 from IV heroin, am trying now, am always trying. its so dam hard. please don't beat yourself up, you have done amazing so many times, and you will again. please look after yourself man, I don't want you feeling bad at all, all the best mate.
Don’t be gone long. You are an inspiration. As I said before, I have been on Tramadol for 20 years for chronic pain. I am slowly tapering, but every now and again I find my dosage going up. One thing about Spain is the weather. Our weather doesn’t help, it can be very depressing. You have fallen to a lower ledge on the mountain, not to the bottom. I respect you so much for your honesty. We need you more now than ever before. We don’t want a perfect person, but an honest one.
Thankyou for your brutal honesty Tim….many of us love and support you here,please don’t be a stranger…..now is when you need all of our support the most♥️
people fall, we make mistakes, we fight all the time, but sometime we fall, really. it's O.K.!! DON'T PUNISH YOURSELF, JUST GET UP ON THE PROCESS TO STAY SOBER AGAIN. WE HUG YOU AND APPRECIATE YOUR EFFORT AND WE LOVE YOU.
In 2018 they made these medications "prescription only" in Australia. Best thing ever as I am free of addiction today. Or at least clean but careful like you said, the addiction never completely goes away we always need to be mindful.
Thank you for keeping it real Tim. Please don’t be hard on yourself. You are loved by this community regardless of where you’re at! Like you tell us always - You are a warrior! You’ve got this! Day by day Tim xx Much love 🥰❤
Wow I have been clean from opioids for 5 years and I have not stopped thinking about them everyday even up to this day I’m still thinking about them. I remember years ago watching your channel and you saying about Roy’s tears in the rain speech from blade runner. It’s an obsession that has haunted me from the very first time I took my first pill. Now I’m still obsessed even though I have been clean for years. I have been battling alcohol but I still think about pills. It’s something we all will battle until the end. I just watched blade runner and this channel came straight into my head as I used to watch it when I was battling withdrawal 5 years ago I thought I would see what was happening and I’m glad I did because it proves we are never alone in addiction even if we feel the most lonely person in the world going through something like this. Stay in warrior mode and keep fighting Tim.
You're one of my idols. You got this! Take care of yourself. TH-cam isn't going anywhere. Did 2 30 days of sobriety back to back. Stuff happens. Don't be too hard on yourself.
Mate you’ve helped me so much over the last few years, your videos saved me during my opiod withdrawal DONT beat yourself up about having a moment of weakness. Every day is a chance to create a new life a new story for yourself. Time here is short so spend it with your family, dont go back to spain it will only make you poorly being away from loved ones. You’re a fighter so stay here and fight! Summers coming just hang in there
Tim i wish you all the best mate and with your channel i know you can kick this things backside,hope your making more youtube content soon and the very best of luck my friend.
So sorry to hear that Tim! Work out what you need stay safe my friend, and Thankyou for all you have done for everyone. It's true your never the same after an addiction. I'm 12 months off opiates I know that's still very early in recovery but I will never be the same. Every single day is a struggle for me and I just never feel myself anymore always sick. Throwing in the towel seems like a good idea at times, what's the point of all of it when all I do is suffer! God Bless Brother.❤
You helped me almost 4years ago and encouraged me , so now I want to encourage you to not condemn yourself and just know it’s part of your journey ,maybe to just inspire by what you done here by being honest when you slipped up , don’t look at it a fail but a experience to learn from ! You only fail if you fall and stay down ! I’ll be praying for you sir,
Sharing so much love to you Tim ❤ In my times of withdrawal your videos have helped me so much ❤ I hope you are okay and please come back ! You are valid whether you have relapsed or not, you’re not alone!
I’m in the same position, so you’re not alone Tim. I told a friend that having experienced opioids is like someone who has eaten bread all their life, then suddenly is given a cream donut. They will never ever forget how that cream donut tastes. They can go back to Bread, but the memory of that donut is forever imprinted on their brain.
Hi Tim. Objectivity is such a difficult perspective to maintain and I can see that you're struggling to keep an objective mind around the current situation. You have always come over as a guy who has tremendous bravery and honesty and those two qualities are inspirational to so many who use your channel. We beat ourselves up when we deem that we've 'fallen' from whatever dizzy and impossible heights we believe that we should be at and rarely acknowledge that we're entitled to the occasional lapse, and end up developing amnesia about the many good things we have done for others and for ourselves. and you Tim have done countless things which through the sincerity of your vids, have made lots of people feel better about themselves. On behalf of those people, can I sincerely thank you. Are you going through a difficult time? Certainly looks like it. Have you got what it takes to recover? Most certainly. Will you get back to making those fantastic vids that make a difference in so many people's lives. You better had! Carpe Diem my friend!
Thanks David those words mean such a lot to me . Thank you sincerely and yes I’m feeling stronger and will be back very soon! Much love and Carpe Diem to you 🙏🏼
Wish you all the best. I am sure you ll make it for good. Have relapsed again. I am from Germany and alcoholic. And relapsed again. The 10th time? Whatever. Have to attend AA again and get on my feet. I thought I was free. I know I ll never be. Good luck my friend.
Sadly we all know how easy it is to relapse. This is why we need you Tim.. We have all relapsed but like you said never give up up on giving up.. We all need each other.. I am looking into kava Magic mushrooms are being studied for fighting addictions with great success. Don't be so hard on yourself Tim.. None of us are safe around our poisons. Your a champ to alot of us.. Your only human ❤
I've heard a lot of ones say microdosing the mushroom is meanta be really good for the mental health and depression a don't no about the addiction part thow if we have that disease in us could we not end up getting hooked on the mushrooms just a thought as a was going threw the comments. I'm currently fighting a really hard opiate drug and it's a killer to get off was doing ok then slipped up like Tim again this be my 1000 th time maybe of trying to get this but always fail , wouldn't mind trying the microdosing sometime to see if ther is any benefit from it
To my knowledge they’re not addictive. It’s about getting on the spirit road. I also read that psychedelics regrow neuro pathways in the pre fontal cortex. NOW if you’re in recovery then it becomes a lot bigger question as to whether it’s a path you want to go down, it’s kill or cure when in our position for sure
We're all human. Please come back and share your experience Ina relapse. It's important. It happens. I've relapsed numerous times. No shame. Hope youre well.
I am so sorry that you find yourself in this position again Tim. I only recently found your channel because I too am going through codeine withdrawal ( prescribed 30/500 co-codamol x 8++ per day UK) again, having previously been off them for 6 years). Do not feel bad, disingenuous or guilty or any of those things. It is clear that your channel has helped so many people m, and you have helped me massively in a very short space of time. You absolutely need to do whatever is right for you right now, but so many of us are here for you if and when you need us! You support others and all are keen to support you right back. YOU are a warrior! Nobody is perfect and that is what makes us real and human. You have stumbled, but you will get right up again. I am going to watch loads of your back catalogue of videos tonight while cussing and thrashing about with my RLS. Thinking of you
Hey Tim! Welcome aboard! BUT! We,humans,are doomed to fall again &again! What do you think I was doing these 1-2 month ? I relapsed after 6( SIX!)MONTH of nearly zero heroin or opioids pills,and ,of course,all my troubles,pains,doubt,light panic,very high mood,very low mood,one of the yoyos of our life,my friend Tim.... But,I just remind you,you have supported my withdrawal since day one,by your inspiring videos...and these 6 month were a nice time.....that ,since 40-50 days,I had given up...... Now,I will try again,one more time(at our âge Tim we look stupido sometimes😂) Because I must go to see my old Mum (96) in Switzerland, that will be my goal,as you said that we must have a goal. Obviousely,you can,if you want,ignore my message,but no forget I will be there for you😊
Having a goal bigger than ourselves is essential. I gave up smoking cigarettes for 18months when me and my ex wife were trying for a baby. We we’re successful against all odds, so miracle’s do happen. So use that will power of your mother and let’s face it you’re on the clock if she’s 96. I won’t wish you good luck, as it’s not down to luck. It’s down to suffering, suck up the suffering! 💪
Keep.your head up, we are all human. I'm still slipping slightly on alcohol thoughts. On and off again. 2 months clean. Here and there. Currently , 3 months sober. But want a sip to ease my mine. Knowing that I can stop at one. You definitely motivated me. So thank you Sir for being an inspiration.....
Your right Your never truly free, ever. Alcohol was my main poison but some prescription and street drugs as well. I bounced in and out of the rooms for 5 years before by some miracle, one day at a time ive made it to 18 years. Well played for admitting it straight away and getting back in the saddle. Learn from this and move forward brother.
Good Luck from The Wirral, UK. It's so easy to slip up. Once you've tried opiates, they're always lurking...for me, anyway. It doesn't matter how you're doing in life..even if things are going well a little voice says, "You know you could be even happier." I have to always be on my guard, though I'm not tempted by the tablets you're talking about. I used to go from chemist to chemist, buying multiple packets of the ones beginning with P and the ibuprofen with codeine .. but only when I'd finished my script early. I'd buy wine and eat packets of pills, just to get a dose that would stop the withdrawal. I hate the things now and can't even touch normal paracetamol WITHOUT the extras because they remind me of how ill the strong ones made me. Anyway, take care Tim. Lots of love x
Fair play mate your honesty will set you free, your right get to the place that suits you best TH-cam will always be here but will you meaning your more important.If you ever heard the song right beside me Sophie B Hawkins that's were we stand by you 🤗
Don’t give up on yourself dude, the people who love you are not a burden you need to carry along with your struggle. People do love you and share your affliction but the pressure to be perfect is unreasonable.
Being back with family and friends would have caused some sort of subconscious pining as they all celebrated their favourite substances of choice, some taking mucho plenty heavy and having a ball without obvious issues so . . . why can't I have a little something too??
Hello Tim it's only a minor blip you didn't start drinking which would be a lot worse , don't be away too long as we all enjoy your video's, take care mate 🙏👍🌞
Have u ever been to your gp and had your testorone levels checked ? U might be suffering from low testostorone ? I was i went on trt and statyed working out up the gym , best thing ive ever done to beat addiction..
Speaking your truth is courageous. But, please dont tell people that we're never truly free. It dimply isnt true. Im a woman im long term recovery and ivam free. Ill check in with you in a couole weeks, sir.
Perhaps a new boundary/rule could be to never go into a pharmacy again. It is horrifying to me that opiates are so available in the UK, when they really are a source of addiction and sorrow. Glad you were able to get off them before you needed to go through withdrawal.
In the uk pharmacy sells a brand called Nurofen plus over the counter! That’s ibuprofen and codeine (12.8mg) per tablet. So I just took a lot ! Highly dangerous and not recommended and was how I got started and escalated on opiates many years ago
Hi Tim, thank you for sharing this with me. I have been relapsing recently, with the death of my uncle and my parents divorce. I've been one day sober. We start back again at day one again. See you when you get back. You've earned my subscription. Addiction is so powerful
Thank you for your honesty ! Yes coming back where these things are available would have caught you off guard ! I wonder about the 'self sabotage' aspect we all face as part of our struggles. It strikes me many people don't really feel they 'deserve' to be Happy and sober deep down. Its that self sabotage voice inside our heads that fires up to ruin things. Hope you're back on your path now ❤
Your going to move too spain to avoid these pills ? Better of staying and learning too deal with functioning with life without these in your life ,better to meet it head on and fight the temptation through coping skills ,i used to be a heavy drinker i am well at the stage now of being able to go in town full of bars and pubs and supermarkets filled with alcohol and just say No ! There was a time when i couldn't pass one of these places without going in ,we can teach our brains and behaviour too say No ! I would certainly get in touch with Narcotics Anonymous before doing anything else !
I've messed up more times then I can remember. I haven't watched the video yet , I'm just going off the title. everyone makes mistakes.....that why they makes pencils with rubbers on the end. I know the shitty feelings afterwards, like I let everyone down including myself. And u just feel awful for a few days afterwards. But least u have recognised u messed up mate, believe me we all do it. Just don't go off hiding away for days coz that makes u feel worse. Ur definitely not alone 💯❤️🩹💪
I have a lot of admiration and respect for you. Moments of weakness do not erase years of strength. You have helped people more than you would ever believe. Focus on yourself and hope to see you soon. 🫡
Tim...forgive yourself as I'm sure those whom you love will For so many this channel is a wealth of info & inspiring words told w authenticity & commitment. I am thankful for your service.🙏🏼 the old obsession coming over you w all its trickery ...a painful pointer for vigilance . ...youve shown us a few times now how recovery from setback is possible w valuable lessons learnt... No better man. Look forward to seeing you back whenever /if ever you choose. ✨🫂Carpe diem 💪🏼.
Tim, stay strong mate . Please don’t punish yourself or cut yourself off completely. Please make sure you have your support.
Love you brother ✊
You’ve got this.
God bless.
I've found that hard exercise, breaking a sweat, really helps! It restores a chemical balance, allowing regenerative sleep, and a healthy appetite for food. Whenever feelings of dread, and cravings start to step forward, pickup the weights, and force them back into the background. All the Best to you! 💖
Well said
Yes 🙌
Hard to mentally get thier but very true
You are a good man Tim
Thank you for being open and knowing what to do to help yourself. Much love and respect to u mate
You can get through this, it doesn't undo all your hard work. It is a blip which you can overcome and put behind you. You know you can do this! Sending you much love and strength, Tim. Take care for now and be kind to yourself.
You’ve helped me my friend- seriously. Please keep going and the very best luck.
you've not let anyone down..you'll be back soon when it passes these things happen and you're honest so keep your chin up
Tim, don’t be gone long. This world needs you. As you would say, you’re a warrior. You’re bigger than this. Rise above.
RIGHT CALLING ON ALL VIEWERS AND SUBSCRIBERS!
LETS SHOW TIM SOME LOVE AND DONATE TO THE CHANNEL! HE NEEDS US NOW, SO SHOW HIM, WHAT HE MEANS TO US AND THAT WE’VE GOT HIS BACK! ❤👍
Tim you are an inspiration.
We all trip and fall we need to get back up dust ourselves off and go again.
Stay strong TIm ❤️
please take care Tim, I have been trying to get clean since 2009 from IV heroin, am trying now, am always trying. its so dam hard. please don't beat yourself up, you have done amazing so many times, and you will again. please look after yourself man, I don't want you feeling bad at all, all the best mate.
Don't give up you will get there. It took me years to come off of opiates but I finally did it. You need to give yourself a good reason
Don't come off TH-cam. Talk to us...we are here for you
Feel the same !
We are praying for you -- you're going to be good -- don't worry == it's a difficult road You are wonderful
We all love you and your videos Tim and are pulling for you, God bless ~
Don’t be gone long. You are an inspiration. As I said before, I have been on Tramadol for 20 years for chronic pain. I am slowly tapering, but every now and again I find my dosage going up. One thing about Spain is the weather. Our weather doesn’t help, it can be very depressing.
You have fallen to a lower ledge on the mountain, not to the bottom. I respect you so much for your honesty. We need you more now than ever before. We don’t want a perfect person, but an honest one.
Strength to you !!!
Thankyou for your brutal honesty Tim….many of us love and support you here,please don’t be a stranger…..now is when you need all of our support the most♥️
people fall, we make mistakes, we fight all the time, but sometime we fall, really. it's O.K.!! DON'T PUNISH YOURSELF, JUST GET UP ON THE PROCESS TO STAY SOBER AGAIN. WE HUG YOU AND APPRECIATE YOUR EFFORT AND WE LOVE YOU.
In 2018 they made these medications "prescription only" in Australia. Best thing ever as I am free of addiction today. Or at least clean but careful like you said, the addiction never completely goes away we always need to be mindful.
Tim, you're honest, don't go away buddy, you've been an inspiration to me.
Thank you so much for being transparent and vulnerable.
Thank you for keeping it real Tim. Please don’t be hard on yourself. You are loved by this community regardless of where you’re at! Like you tell us always - You are a warrior! You’ve got this! Day by day Tim xx Much love 🥰❤
God bless you Brother Tim; you are only human and shall overcome. Always in your corner.❤
Been through it so often with alcohol. Thank you for sharing your struggle. Build up from this, and see you back at your best soon.
Wow I have been clean from opioids for 5 years and I have not stopped thinking about them everyday even up to this day I’m still thinking about them. I remember years ago watching your channel and you saying about Roy’s tears in the rain speech from blade runner. It’s an obsession that has haunted me from the very first time I took my first pill.

Stay in warrior mode and keep fighting Tim.
Easier said than done. But maybe if you could knock the drink on the head, you’d feel more in control about thinking of the tablets? Be well brother 💪
Your honesty shows a lot , good man!!!
Pick yourself up dust yourself of and get back to it !!! You got this !!
You're one of my idols. You got this! Take care of yourself. TH-cam isn't going anywhere. Did 2 30 days of sobriety back to back. Stuff happens. Don't be too hard on yourself.
Don't leave ❤

I’m in the same position, so you’re not alone Tim. I told a friend that having experienced opioids is like someone who has eaten bread all their life, then suddenly is given a cream donut. They will never ever forget how that cream donut tastes. They can go back to
Bread, but the memory of that donut is forever imprinted on their brain.
Proud of you Tim! You managed to keep yourself away from all the temptations!
Oh no !! Just seen this ! I shall miss you ! Come back soon ok xx

Hi Tim..👋🏻 oh dear, I know exactly what u mean 🤦♀️🙏🏻, what on earth did u buy? How many did u take? Bless you Tim it’s a nitemare 🌈😘
Noone is perfect and no one expects you to be we all fall short never be ashamed but always take time for yourself 🙏
Bummer. I guess I would do the same. You only human. get your shit together and good luck with your recovery.
Wish you all the best. I am sure you ll make it for good.
Have relapsed again. I am from Germany and alcoholic. And relapsed again. The 10th time? Whatever. Have to attend AA again and get on my feet. I thought I was free. I know I ll never be. Good luck my friend.
Sadly we all know how easy it is to relapse.
This is why we need you Tim..
We have all relapsed but like you said never give up up on giving up..
We all need each other..
I am looking into kava
Magic mushrooms are being studied for fighting addictions with great success.
Don't be so hard on yourself Tim.. None of us are safe around our poisons.
Your a champ to alot of us..
Your only human ❤
I've heard a lot of ones say microdosing the mushroom is meanta be really good for the mental health and depression a don't no about the addiction part thow if we have that disease in us could we not end up getting hooked on the mushrooms just a thought as a was going threw the comments.

NOW if you’re in recovery then it becomes a lot bigger question as to whether it’s a path you want to go down, it’s kill or cure when in our position for sure
We're all human. Please come back and share your experience Ina relapse. It's important. It happens. I've relapsed numerous times. No shame. Hope youre well.
Really sad for you tim 😢
I am so sorry that you find yourself in this position again Tim.

I am going to watch loads of your back catalogue of videos tonight while cussing and thrashing about with my RLS.

Hey Tim! Welcome aboard! BUT! We,humans,are doomed to fall again &again!
What do you think I was doing these 1-2 month ? I relapsed after 6( SIX!)MONTH of nearly zero heroin or opioids pills,and ,of course,all my troubles,pains,doubt,light panic,very high mood,very low mood,one of the yoyos of our life,my friend Tim....
But,I just remind you,you have supported my withdrawal since day one,by your inspiring videos...and these 6 month were a nice time.....that ,since 40-50 days,I had given up......
Now,I will try again,one more time(at our âge Tim we look stupido sometimes😂)
Because I must go to see my old Mum (96) in Switzerland, that will be my goal,as you said that we must have a goal.
Obviousely,you can,if you want,ignore my message,but no forget I will be there for you😊
Here here, we'll said 🙏🙏🙏
Having a goal bigger than ourselves is essential. I gave up smoking cigarettes for 18months when me and my ex wife were trying for a baby.
We we’re successful against all odds, so miracle’s do happen. So use that will power of your mother and let’s face it you’re on the clock if she’s 96. I won’t wish you good luck, as it’s not down to luck. It’s down to suffering, suck up the suffering! 💪
@@yamyite thank you,very encouraging comment,have nice week end!
Tim you are my hero. You will still beat this
Get well!
Keep.your head up, we are all human. I'm still slipping slightly on alcohol thoughts. On and off again. 2 months clean. Here and there. Currently , 3 months sober. But want a sip to ease my mine.

Fair play mate your honesty will set you free, your right get to the place that suits you best TH-cam will always be here but will you meaning your more important.If you ever heard the song right beside me Sophie B Hawkins that's were we stand by you 🤗
They sell those pills OTC?! that’s crazy… here in the US they will barely give you pain pills even if your leg is falling off.
happens to the best of us. Pick yourself up its all part of the process of God reaching you. We've all been there many times
😢😢😢 please don't be so hard on yourself! We love you and need you.
Take care Tim
I'm the same..Ur a wonderful person...it's them doing it making money...Ur great..xx
I wish you good luck.😊👍
The graph is not linear. Just get back on your horse and smile.
Praying for you,
Don’t give up on yourself dude, the people who love you are not a burden you need to carry along with your struggle. People do love you and share your affliction but the pressure to be perfect is unreasonable.
Being back with family and friends would have caused some sort of subconscious pining as they all celebrated their favourite substances of choice, some taking mucho plenty heavy and having a ball without obvious issues so . . . why can't I have a little something too??
💖 Self compassion. Grace.

Perhaps a new boundary/rule could be to never go into a pharmacy again. It is horrifying to me that opiates are so available in the UK, when they really are a source of addiction and sorrow. Glad you were able to get off them before you needed to go through withdrawal.
How did u buy opiates from the pharmacy without a prescription?
In the uk pharmacy sells a brand called Nurofen plus over the counter! That’s ibuprofen and codeine (12.8mg) per tablet. So I just took a lot ! Highly dangerous and not recommended and was how I got started and escalated on opiates many years ago

Hi Tim, thank you for sharing this with me. I have been relapsing recently, with the death of my uncle and my parents divorce. I've been one day sober. We start back again at day one again. See you when you get back. You've earned my subscription. Addiction is so powerful
What does relapse have to do with the TH-cam channel?
Read the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Thank you for your honesty ! Yes coming back where these things are available would have caught you off guard ! I wonder about the 'self sabotage' aspect we all face as part of our struggles. It strikes me many people don't really feel they 'deserve' to be Happy and sober deep down. Its that self sabotage voice inside our heads that fires up to ruin things. Hope you're back on your path now ❤
Your going to move too spain to avoid these pills ? Better of staying and learning too deal with functioning with life without these in your life ,better to meet it head on and fight the temptation through coping skills ,i used to be a heavy drinker i am well at the stage now of being able to go in town full of bars and pubs and supermarkets filled with alcohol and just say No ! There was a time when i couldn't pass one of these places without going in ,we can teach our brains and behaviour too say No ! I would certainly get in touch with Narcotics Anonymous before doing anything else !
I live in Spain so just going home to regroup and work on myself via na and aa which I’m active in over there 🙏🏼
You're a cool dude. Keep fighting the good fight. I believe in you.
I've messed up more times then I can remember. I haven't watched the video yet , I'm just going off the title. everyone makes mistakes.....that why they makes pencils with rubbers on the end. I know the shitty feelings afterwards, like I let everyone down including myself. And u just feel awful for a few days afterwards. But least u have recognised u messed up mate, believe me we all do it. Just don't go off hiding away for days coz that makes u feel worse. Ur definitely not alone 💯❤️🩹💪
I have a lot of admiration and respect for you. Moments of weakness do not erase years of strength. You have helped people more than you would ever believe. Focus on yourself and hope to see you soon. 🫡
