cddub asked:


i was on everything from heroin to crack to methadone to xanax. i feel that i have been successful at getting clean. i did not do it traditionally. i didnt go to NA or any other rehab. i just finally believed in me and God. i guess what i’m asking here is your take on this? what do you think my chances for a job in the counseling field if i havent gone through NA? NA says doing the same things over and over again expecting the different results is insanity. well, i did something different this time and i really feel i have different results. what are your thoughts on this?

Which is the most powerful sedating, euphoric, tranquillizing opiate in the world? Heroin,Morphine, Pethidine, Methadone, Fentanyl, Oxycontin, Subutex. And another question: How strong is Oxycontin 20mg compared to Heroin? Just curious folks. I’m not an addict. Cheers.

I know most of you will say that I should dump the loser. I can’t do it. First of all, I know what he’s going thru as I’m a recovering addict myself. I’m on the Methadone program and it’s working well. I’m so worried about him. He’s overdosed several times and almost died. He tried quitting cold turkey and was okay for a week and then went back to it this past week. I say that most of it is mental right now. He can’t afford Methadone and gets his money for drugs in illegal ways. I’m so sad ’cause he doesn’t want to hang out with me anymore. I haven’t even seen him in 6 days now. We’ve been dating for over 8 years. He was totally different when we first met. He gets so angry when I confront him. I think that the only way he’ll get clean is if he is arrested. He never has spent more than a couple of days in jail and I think a month or two might set him straight. He’s already been to a rehab but it didn’t work. What can I do????
I suffer from severe anxiety and depression and I don’t think I can handle this much longer. He lives with his Mom and she’s really hurting as well. What is it going to take to wake him up?
