      He died? From an OD? This is why I think longterm MAT is so important for many. People can hash & bash me all they want ... I'm ALIVE.

    • @mikesully110
      @mikesully110 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think he died from a cardiac issue unrelated to relapsing but it might have been someone else.
      Personally after kicking a nightmare lope habit, the thought of getting on another long acting opiate is just terrifying to me - when you come off lope, done or subs your WD's last at least 4 weeks and 4 weeks of lope agony was just wayy too much.
      I want to try Vivitrol (it has its own risks of your tolerance being massively lowered if you relapse) but I want to give my brain chance to heal from all opiates. I know different people have different strategies though.

    Dude!! Im 4 days into my withdrawals its at its peak but let me tell you!! Thank god I found your videos.. I had intentions of going back to my doctor tomorrow for a new script of oxy but you have helped me change my thought on everything. Iv been thinking for awhile im going to stop soon.. just one more dose then one more again & so on.. but today my friend im more confident than ever iam not turning back.. you literally put a smile om my face man 😀 I have 5 children and a beautiful wife & my addiction on Endone+Targin all started with Rugby Leauge & work place injurys. Im sick of living a life like a zombie & my beautiful family not having my full attention & potential as a father & husband. I lay in bed at night and feel inspired by you so much its enough to get me on the road to the healthy me again.. Im from Australia 30yrs old & was a fit healthy athlete & hard worker befor my dr introduced me to oxy. But this is it man.. you bro are such an inspiration I thank you & hope you realise what a great man you are. Ill keep in contact & fill you in more in time but until then. Thanks again.. ps the insomnia & RLS is a killer but f%#k it 👍 cheers to a happy future. Kind regards Nigel

    every single person that is here for this one reason has been over these exact words 1000s of times in their own heads, and it's like your mind tricks you into thinking that no, I won't feel normal, when will this end. But seeing someone and hearing them say the same words back to you... It makes me want to be "that person"
    I sat outside toady for around 10 minutes and watched ppl walking, jogging, walking the dogs... etc and I really did think wtf, dude, why are you happy? HOW? Why do you feel so great and it's been weeks and I still feel like death? Last week I couldn't even get out of bed for days. This week I went out on Monday and Tuesday, even only for 10 mins and even if I felt like I had run a marathon when I came back... But I suppose something is happening. Next week things should improve a little bit more, then so on. Hearing you speak out to us is something that I really needed. I have stayed away from listening to anyone because I thought it might cause some kind of trigger. It's helping man. And I really do thank you for that.

    Ryan, I have watched almost all your video's, many more than once, and I have never heard you mention the Vitamin C + Niacin "treatment". According to literature in the medical school library of the U of Mexico, Vitamin C might block the response of opioid receptors to opioid drugs like OXY. Sodium ascorbic rather that ascorbic acid seems to be the preferred method, but I was so excited when I read about it, I started mega doses of ascorbic acid today. After three doses of about 18 grams, plus some niacin, I feel less withdrawal. Of course I am still using calm support among other things, but what is your opinion on Vitamin C? Obviously you can't do it for weeks, but for a few days to get through the difficult days, do you believe it works or is it all in my head? I researched toxicity to be sure I wasn't killing myself, but that's what I WAS doing.

  • @stancexpunks
    @stancexpunks 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I can't seem to get past a week clean :( I've prob detoxed 5 times with the most recent time being about 1 month ago. I can get through the initial withdrawals. For some reason, this last one wasn't so bad at all even though it was my first time doing it cold turkey. It seemed to peak by the 2nd day which was extremely surprising for me. And by day 4 I was practically feeling normal besides being incredibly hungry yet unable to eat. Like I could feel my body begging for food yet I had zero appetite. And it was that inability to eat that caused my brain to start thinking, "hey.. you practically haven't eaten for 4 days. If you don't eat soon, you're going to really harm your body & start looking like a holocaust survivor. You're already skinny enough; your body doesn't have enough fat reserves to last us through this. Maybe just do a little bit - just enough to have an appetite - so you can finally get some food in you?" But of course, you know how the story goes; you can never do just a little bit, and now I'm back at square 1 yet again. I feel like I wasted that moderately easy WDs and that the next one might not be so easy:/
