Vent away.
And I really don't know how a situation like this is handled in many places, but are there not organizations set up to help people going through this?
ETA - I'd vaguely heard of a group called "Narconon" and just looked it up. It's a Scientology group - you probably don't need that craziness in your life at the moment...

Like Pruitt said, keep venting and ranting to us. It would be abnormal from you if you didn't.
Keep doing what you are doing towards sobriety. Everything else is secondary at this juncture. There will be people that will help you in times of need. Don't feel like you are taking advantage of them, because you aren't. These people love and care for you and want to help in many different ways. Go back to the mechanic and tell them that the issue is back, and you would like to have it fixed. They should do it at their cost since it wasn't fixed completely the first time.
Check with orgs in the area on getting assistance with the electric bill and food. I am sure there are many in your area that would be willing to lend a financial hand in your situation.

Re: Doing something now, before I get my own thread
TT, anyone who tells you you are talking too much about your detox needs to fuck off. I'm legit furious that someone would tell you that. I'm proud of you for being willing to talk about it so candidly, and I'd bet someone out there reading your posts and getting inspired to finally act and try to kick their addiction or treat their issues. I've discussed my issues on here before, but I can't imagine I will ever feel like I could openly discuss it on Facebook, so I give you a ton of props for that. Talking (or typing) helps. For me, it puts my thoughts into coherent order I can understand, and here, you will get feedback and support. Look at the responses here, we all want to help, and we all want to know how you are doing, so please, keep posting your thoughts, and don't give a second thought on annoying anyone. If they don't want to read it, they can just avoid clicking this thread.
As for people asking how to help, most people want to help, but don't know how. People you know are sincere in offering "help" will be genuinely grateful if you let them know how they can help. Watching someone suffer is a helpless feeling, knowing what you can do to help lets you act and feel good for helping. You asked for a scale, and several people offered. Let people know what you need, and they will happily give it. I'm the worst at asking for help, so I completely get it, but if you ask a true friend for something, they won't think of it as a burden, but they will feel empowered in knowing what you need.
Don't feel weak or like it's cheating to take suboxone. I was surprised your doctor didn't give it to you. It's supposed to be a tremendous help, and there is no reason to make this harder than it needs to be. It's much better to succeed with help than try to go cold turkey and have a lower chance of success and much worse physical symptoms. Like you said, the withdrawal pain is your body lying to you, suboxone quiets the lies a bit.

Re: Doing something now, before I get my own thread
Stay the fuck away from Narconon. Friend of a friend went to a Narcanon inpatient rehab for a coke addiction. He emailed my friend from the retreat, and my friend showed me because he was proud. I warned him that it was a Scientology recruitment tool, and he doubted me. When the rehab stint was completed, the friend decided to stay on as a volunteer to help other addicts. The emails stopped, the guy's parents were concerned because they couldn't contact him, and he drained his bank accounts. Last I heard, he joined Scientology, cut himself off from friends and family, and never returned.Pruitt wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2019 5:51 am Vent away.

Its gettimg to a level of bad painwise to where i still have no plans to use but i get why people break around day 7. meetings and group help. im getting a lityle energy back. a friend is gonna back me into a couple small poker tournaments. helps to be around people not in the house. i can hurt anywhere. Suboxone makes it manageabke. Weed makes it manageable. by My own standards, (no pills, dont care about weed), im 7 days sober today. all things considered, pain aside, it was a really good day

Re: Doing something now, before I get my own thread
Today is day 7, and the end is near of day seven. I feel almost like two seperate people when I say I am happy and miserable. I cant express how bad the physical pain is.I am truly facing my worst of worst detox nightmares painwise. If anything, the people who told me they wished for death undersold it. Every pain receptor in my body is chemically fucked and randomly firing off signals. Literally everything hurts. Suboxone turns it down from 9.5 to 6.5 when paired with weed. My mom knows, doc knows, rehab counselor all know until im out of physical detox nextmweek Im smoking pot. Its not an impact to my sobriety number.
The flip side to all that pain shit is today I had a little more energy..some od the flulike shit went away, im clear headed, thankful to be alive, i got to have enough energy to drive to my job and say hi to people, my boss helped me figure out how i was gonna pay for the 150$ i owe on monday for treatment, and a friend is putting me in two tournaments this weekend basically giving me two free shots at making the 180$ i need for lights. I talked to some people, made some amends, didnt even feel the urge to use.I amhappy and I am sober. I thank God for today literally. Thanks for being here to listen guys

Re: Doing something now, before I get my own thread
also, a couple people here and one on fb have asked me how to help financially. If any of you want to help me with this, the best way would be to pay the rehab facility for my treatment. I talked with my sponsor, and this way i dont have to handle money and deal with that temptation and you dont have to wonder if its going where i say its going. If none of yall want to no big deal no pressure, i will figure out the money, im just putting it out there.

Thank you all sincerely for the overwhelming amount of positive responses everytime I write something. Its such an indescribably good feeling to know I can get judgement free advice from people who kind of know me and my life 24/7. I reread this thread a lot when im getting depressed about things and it genuinely does cheer me up to know that i havent fucked up my relationships so bad that nobody cares if I live or die anymore. I used to have that thought a lot and every single time my brain tries to start that loop i pull up this thread and the fb thread and read people telling me they love me and care until the thought goes away. You guys genuinely help me every day. Thank you.

TT, you're doing great.
I'm sure it's hard physically, mentally, emotionally, and psychologically, but you're doing a fantastic job because what you are doing is so hard to accomplish. I'm glad you're doing this to take care of yourself and improve your life. Keep focused on your goal, keep fighting to get there, and never forget that you have people who care about you to lean on for support, here or otherwise.

TT, I haven't had a chance to chime in, but I'm proud of your progress so far. At this time all I can do in terms of help is be a person to listen and to tell you you are doing well so far despite the obvious challenges. I've seen loved ones go through addiction and it's a motherfucker, and I know you're dying inside. Here is a safe place to talk about what's going on. Whoever on FB said you're talking too much about your recovery can kindly go fuck himself.

at this point things are good. only really fighting energy loss these days. its so fucking insane. you could make the case all i do is eat and sleep and going to walmart gassed me so hard i could not move for hours after.
the sad thing for me is apparently a lot of my personality was the vikes. its weird realizing you dont even really know who you are. im in week 3 of a six week program, but honestly its my last probably. i cant afford to take anymore time for me, and they apparenty want money to treat me, which is reasonable but not manageable. pretty much just gonna wait and see what happens. today is either 17 or 18. im honestly ignoring it til i hit a month

Keep it up if you can pal. It's an investment in yourself and an opportunity to remold. You're a smart guy. I'd discourage you from looking at treatment from a strictly cost perspective. If the program is working and you're working for it, I'd encourage you to try and see it through. Regarding energy loss, how's your diet? How's your activity level? I know it can be hard, but have you been trying to wake up early, maybe exercise a little? Eat cleaner? Those can go a long way into boosting your energy level. You surely know it's going to be hard to break multi-year habits and routines in 2 weeks, so start slow. Even if its 5-10 minutes two or three times a day. See where you can cut spending if possible in the short term and explore your local resources for getting back to even keel.TT2.0 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2019 12:24 pm at this point things are good. only really fighting energy loss these days. its so fucking insane. you could make the case all i do is eat and sleep and going to walmart gassed me so hard i could not move for hours after.
the sad thing for me is apparently a lot of my personality was the vikes. its weird realizing you dont even really know who you are. im in week 3 of a six week program, but honestly its my last probably. i cant afford to take anymore time for me, and they apparenty want money to treat me, which is reasonable but not manageable. pretty much just gonna wait and see what happens. today is either 17 or 18. im honestly ignoring it til i hit a month
Stay with it buddy. Even if you do choose to leave treatment, keep going a day at a time or an hour at a time or whatever helps you feel like you're making progress. The drugs cause your brain to lie to you, you've written that yourself. Keep those things in mind and keep leaning on the people that care about you. This is a brilliant opportunity to become you, again or for the first time. One foot in front of the other mate.
