Im sure there's a lot of us in the same boat...once you dive so deep into opiates the only way out is opiate maintenance drugs like Methadone or Subs...for me anyway

It's a crazy addiction that's for sure. The only time I ever ate methadone or subs, I was trying to get high. I quit all opiates cold turkey when I moved to LA with my girlfriend. That shit was HELL. It was drinking that I had to seek help from a white knuckle, no bullshit, FREE, in-house, 6 months stay at a crazy ass rehab in Queens NY. No phones no nothing, meetings back to back all day long, 7 cigarettes per day, coffee twice. They told us our families weren't calling because we fucked that up. lol shit was wild but it definitely worked for me. Everyone's recovery is different and that is why I don't really attend or go to any NA/AA stuff... they always leave out the 13 step and that's a FACT.

There is no end in sight....was on methadone for 2yrs then made the switch to Subs n have now been on them for 4+ yrs...every time ive tried to come off of them i end up gettin hi...my job is pretty physically demanding so goin thru withdrawals or not feeling 100% physically just isn't an option and still do my job...Subs are the lesser evil and has made it possible for me to have a productive life...I have animals and a good ole lady who depend on me to hold my shit together...im blessed to have made it out of that life still breathing n I dont taken that for granted

@Mim Towls How old was the VG pollen when you dusted the DC?

It had been in my refrigerator for about 2 months I believe...The first container I opened was full of mold, the second one was still good apparently. I've read where people keep it stored in the freezer for years with flour or something though....

That’s exactly how I do it, 50/50 with flour as a desiccant.

It’s inspiring to see people get off it. Both my brothers are addicts. One made it off the smack only to be an alcoholic fighting for quality of life in his early 40s in another way and the other is on methadone. What was supposed to be my first ride turned out to be bunk, I think I smoked plastic lol, but I’m thankful for that now!

That's probably the only time I'd be thankful to have smoked plastic! LOL. The alcohol replacement method is very rough, and showed me a whole nother' side to the bottom that I didn't even know existed. I can't believe that shit is legal.

It’s actually the only drug that can do chromosome damage that is heritable. As I’m sure you’re aware it hits the same neural receptors as opiates as well. I agree, I can’t believe it’s legal either. By little bro has Barrett’s esophagus as well now, not to mention the kidney and liver problems starting. My older bro still has relapses, he called me from a bus stop just before Christmas outside OKC loosing his mind on PCP. I mean his stepson just blew his brains out because he and his wife just cut the 27 year old off from failure to launch funding and he was feeling responsible, but still. He does the whole na cycle too, he’s been doing this since we were kids and he’s 52 now.

My brothers in prison right now for crimes supporting his addiction...saving his life at the moment...he'll parole out n within a week be bk on the street until his PO catches up with him then he'll go bk...n get out n do it again...n again...etc...the only time his mind is right is when he's locked up...
Not to get all AA'ish but the book says that those with mental illness or who are not capable of being honest with themselves "there is little hope"...i think my brother falls into that category...I never let him know where I live bc B n E's are his thing but abt a year ago he was out for a week n in the car with my mom when she swung by for something...I knew then it was comin...bc I work outta town regularly n he knows it...ole lady came home from work one day n bk door was popped...Sour Desiel m Chemical Fire rdy for harvest chopped n gone(I was sick abt that)... tools cash tvs shroom stash odds n ends gone...
It was all replaceable expect the plants
I dont think too many families out there have escaped having an addict of some sort in the family.
Hopefully they'll get it together one day

Shit I knew that the US has its problems with Hard drugs epidemics, but, realizing how many people in this here thread are or were effected by it in this way or another really gives a clear perspective on the statistics...that shit is straight depressing. Its really something i know nothing about, and hope to never learn. Stay strong out there, grow the flower, love and enjoy life 
, it is great, for the most part.
