    Keep your head strong. You'll be getting bouts of extreme happiness and deep depression. You'll feel high then in pain. Your brain will equalize. Stay away from breaking bad and shows like that. They're triggers. I can barely have spoons in the house because it's an H trigger. You gotta just change it all up.
    Think of it this way: this may just be your life's purpose. Everything you did, everytime you ever prayed since you were little, everytime you wished being a superhero when you were young, this is it. Your life's purpose may just be in front of you. This might be what you will be remembered for. Do it. Sacrifice your every being for it. You'll know later on.
    You look real good bruu.

    You are somebody, don’t ever forget that! You are pretty amazing letting people know about your struggles, and forget the haters, saying you look high. It looks like you are having a hard time sitting still, that doesn’t make you high, my guess you get a little nervous when making a video. JUST REMEMBER YOU ARE SOMEBODY AND YOU MATTER!! Derek and yourself are doing something amazing to help others in the process of their recovery.

    Hang in there and wishing nothing but the best for you and thank you for showing your true struggle through this journey of yours. Have you ever thought of trying a very low dose of Suboxone to get you through these tough times? Stay well, stay strong.

    You are looking so much healthier, but I absolutely know it is more of a mind-fuck at this point. Keep posting, with total transparency & total honesty. Will help hold you accountable, & you can gain strength from us. Just down dosed my fenty to 37.5mcr/72 hours. Ohh myyy gods! I ache, headaches, hot/cold flashes….all the sorts.
    I am INCREDIBLY proud of you for noticing your trigger. I truly believe in you buddy. Give yourself time to heal.

    These are great diary journals to look back on and to express yourself I know that feeling all to well I can’t watch Basketball Diaries because of that reason! I had a bad issue back in the the early 2000 with Xanax! And I didn’t know that you can’t just stop taking them on your own you need medical attention for sure! It is A year later so just wondering how ur doing and feeling! My husband will be clean from methadone 2 years and its been had it’s emotional up’s and down but you learn how to deal with it and having family support helps!

    I just dropped the suboxone 9 days ago. I'm pretty much over the extremely intense withdrawl now. But now it's all the psychological bullshit. Nothing feels the same. No energy. But it will get better. And ya stay away from anything at all that triggers your mind and in your case that show wouldn't be good. Hang In there it will get better It takes time for your brain to heal. Your not alone either brother. Don't know if you ever saw money hiest its a good show. Kept my mind off alot

  • @_zombie_queen_

    7 years off heroin. 7 days off my PRESCRIBED medications. Since my doctor retired and didn't feel the need to tell anyone with proper time. He currently has 200 patients in withdrawl. Including me. I found your videos somehow during my worst withdrawls and you got me through it. Thanks stranger.

    Getting clean is easy. Staying clean is a real son of a birch. I graduated treatment and completely came off methadone on the 19th. Prior to that I was opiate free other than methadone for six months. Methadone saved my life.

    Even smells can be triggers for heroin or opiates. Opiates do stop you from getting sick from colds and stuff they don't know why. I want send love out to all my sick cycle carousel bros and sisters. Its a hellish road we walk but we are the most courageous and strong. Love you all stay strong

    I don't know how this guy does it. Hell, I still don't understand how rehab workers and councillors who are ex-addicts does it. For me, in order to stay clean is to not think about nor talk about my past with drugs. After 34 overdoses within just 3 years, being sent to rehabs across the country, screwing up and being homeless in those cities where I knew no one, sure I have tons of stories. I was even offered a job at a rehab in Tulsa OK... But I could never have a job like that, a job where I had to constantly think about and talk about my past with drugs. For me, in order to stay clean is to just not think about drugs period.

    You look and talk so much better , I'm sure the mental part is not comfortable but keep talking out loud to others ,don't let it swirl around in your own mind !
    The thought that the drugs helped you focus and had energy but you know it wasn't good ! It just made you stay in the cycle of get up do drugs ,go make or find money to get drugs and that's all your life consisted of , It's all about the reward , think of the lab rats experments ! You do not want to be a rat on a wheel ,Get pissed off and keep saying no ! Those thoughts and triggers will go away and you will regain your focus and energy ! You have a big heart and you deserve much better , just keep talking out loud to everyone ,you being honest about how you feel will set you free ,
    You know going back is not what you want and it would be nothing good ,
    If you can come on here and talk about it then you doing better than you think you are ! Stay connected ! ❤️

    You look sooo much more healthy or alive or radiant my dude. Agree with the show thing. Take the Bibles advice and meditate on the things that are good and beneficial and encouraging and build you up. Start talking about where you wanna see yourself in the future rather then speaking about how horrible your current situation is. Talking like that will keep you focused on where you're going and what you need to do and what to avoid.

    Kind of look like your high while making this video to be honest. I relapsed and had a couple of months streak. If you did relapse bro don’t even sweat it. Just stop, take a deep breath and get your 24 hour chip. Then it will be a 72 and a week. Don’t actually have to go to N A . You know your achievements. Think positive and remind yourself of the reasons why you wanted to stop. Why you took on the monumental task, the journey, of peace and clarity. We’re together in this. Your not alone

    Yes you do look way better. Lol i thought i was the only 1 that couldn't watch certain tv shows coz it would start making me feel anxious and antsy. You need to talk to somebody else like a drug counselling thing or something. You can even do it online coz u seem to be isolating and staying in your head. This then makes u depressed and anxious and bored which deffo make ya relapse to feel better. Then if u do that you dont enjoy it coz u feel guilty and worthless, oh lord its bloody torture.

    Feed the dog, not the wolf (39:38 in video below). Watch positive videos/shows rather than negative videos/shows. And, be careful to not justify watching negative videos/shows as being more helpful than the positive videos/shows. I can tell you are a beautiful soul with much more dog than wolf in you to feed. You got this!

    You gotta get out move. Be in the sun. I know everyone says exercise and people think it's bullshit but from day one I forced myself to take walks and the withdrawal process ended up being alot easier like way easier I had the normal but for some reason it wasn't that bad and all that was coming off of 300mg oxy a day. Then by day 5 or 6 I was in the gym with very few symptoms. All of the sun and exercise will also help your brain bounce back. Paws was tough but nothing that can't be pushed through with a little will power.
