CLEAN FOR 6 years!

That's a HUGE accomplishment that will pave the way for many more!

Pod tea is a wonderful long-acting option that serves as the mid-way between addiction and sobriety for many people. If you can manage moderate use, I say there's nothing wrong with indulging now and again.

Congrats again!!!

 

thanks. codone!!

I am feeling great today, had an mild poppy tea. and the funny thing I am not addicted to such low levels of opiates.

 

Good for you girl! I'm addicted to ANY opiate but i recently quit smoking marijuana cause it affects my concentration and I'm going back to school so i need to be clear-minded.

 

way to be dude :]

I went through a period of heavy painkiller use, eventually moved on to tar. haven't touched an opiate in over a year. never want to again.

 

6 yrs here to honey. did methedone ting 5 of it off that 1 yr. now. congrats drop me a pm .I like to yap at those who make it. don't get cocky though. I had been clean 12yrs and relapse.

 

:groupwave:arty: keep go'in girl!!

 

yikes

 

I use about a glass of poppy tea, about every 4 or so weeks, or whenever I am out of weed and in pain. the funny thing is I can go months without it, even years. it is so low dose of opiates, I really dont get addicted.

and mindbenderI will definitely pm you.

 

ex mild oxycontin addict. I guess it's similar. Not for too long though.
I can really see myself going down that road so I'll take your willpower as insiration to control my drug habits as well good job must be hard. Do you still think about heroin much?

 

to be honest whenever soemthing goes wrong I think about heroin, but I still dont do it, bc I found other coping mechanisms.

 

girl be careful. our own minds or our worst enemy. I know from expserience.Just be vary careful.

 

I am careful but I have been using poppy tea for a long time, and I can quit it whenever. the only thing I have ever been addicte dto was heroin.

trust me I am not lying.

Good grief.

 

Congratulations. Keep it up.

 

congratulations psychedelicgirl ive been using oxys/hydromorphs for about 5 years now, and its impossible to imagine my life without them, so 6 years off the h is badass

 

6 years?! That's awesome! I can't even stay off codeine or hydros for more than a few weeks. I got hooked on the poppy seed tea for a while and it's got a really long w/d period. Then the seeds grew and I had my own opium for awhile. Still, keep it in your past and be glad you rid yourself of that beast. I haven't tried H and don't want to since I think that'd be the end for me. Congrats on getting married, too. How'd you get clean off H in the first place? Willpower, or did it take rehab and counselling? I'm trying to fix my life and also have bipolar. My doses of opies are low but I still feel awful without them. Any advice?
