Umm, yeah, you just used.
-
I don't do dope but i would have to say yes! if you used again your system is going to want more
-
WHY OH WHY DID YOU DO THAT? you were doing so well.don't let this be the reason you start using again.you may feel a bit worse than you have been te last few days but i don't think it will be a full withdrawl feeling.please don't let yourself be tempted again.i've been clean for nearly a year and i would never go back.good luck.
-
I'm not a drug user but in my healthcare experience I would say that you should check in somewhere ASAP, you need to have the right mindset. It is not an option it doesn't exist, get away from the people, places, and things that trigger your memories....life is short, give it up...
-
Please, please don't do that anymore. Why do you want to live hard? Why do something that is so bad for yourself? My heart hurts for you. I wish there was some way I could help you be more important to yourself. You're probably a very bright person with lots of talen and lots to offer. Heroin will not allow you to move forward with your life. I can send you a gun. That will make the process shorter.
-
Just say no do something constructive and lose that heroin junk its gonna kill you someday maybe you think you are not worthwhile but im sure you are.
-
Stay away from that stuff. it's just one big fat addiction. It will rule your life!!
-
Its been 8 days, I would say that the worst of the physical withdrawls are over of course you are going to have some discomfort and cravings after this high. The first 5 days is hardest to get through... though I have never used herion I have been addicted to pharmecutical opiates and the withdrawls can be quite bad. I give you props for making it 8 days and I know how easy it is to give in to the addiction when you feel so horrible from the withdrawls, you can feel down for 6 months to a year after doing opiates for a long period. I suggest you find a rehab to get into and stick with it. Opiates are a hard drug to kick and its smart to have support if you are really serious about quitting for good. Good luck! and Godspeed
-
Probably not, but here's a clue: DON'T TOUCH IT AGAIN! AT ALL! EVER!
-
i think .you please try and ride it out you did it foe 8 days all ready. really life isnt that boring ( honestly)
-
I hope not...Drugs aren't easy to quit, but heroin is especially hard...PLEASE get help Sweetheart. ((((((((((((Hugs))))))))))))))))
-
I would imagine if you have gone through 8 days your over the worse..smoking a little shouldn't set you back..but please refrain you are doing so well and should be proud of yourself its a tough addiction..I know of someone who overcame it. big hug mate xx
-
I wasn't aware you could smoke heroin...
-
Not unless you keep doing it.
-
My friend died from drug addiction, he only took a bit too! you can tell the whole world a lie, but dont lie to yourself! it takes a long time, maybe years to come clean from drugs, there are two words, "No More", if you can build that into a sentence yourself then you are on the right way
-
being as you just had alittle bit your going to have some but not as severe ,my son, was brought back to life after his heart stopped he had only been using a couple weeks. the stuff is deadly and it kills alot of people if you continue it will only get harder to stop. there is so much more to life then drugs please when you get the urge ask yourself this do i want this to be what my life was all about? HEroin find some one a church or doctor or family or friend wh0 you trust and ask for help they will help you . your in my prayers now God will help you.
-
You shouldn't have full blown withdrawl, but the cravings will be much stronger. I am a recovering heroin addict (5 years clean) you should look into NA or your local drug treatment options for support, it's next to impossible to get clean without some kind of help!! Good luck.
-
I think you will, my son was addicted...shooting...several of his friends are now dead because of it, last friends parents just pulled the plug on him July 4th due to being brain dead!! Walk away and stay away...take it one day at a time and just deal with it that one day, wake up, do it again!! You can do this if you want it bad enough!!!
-
Probably not. Don't do it again and be prepared for the worst just in case. Relapse happens, it's what you do about it afterwards that counts. Maybe find an NA or AA meeting to go to? Get some sober friends to help you thru this time. If you don't have sober friends you'll find them in the above meetings. Even if you're not into NA or AA it may be a place to talk to sober people and get help and advice from people who have been there and done that. If you have the urge to try it again then maybe a short stay in rehab is a good idea.
-
A little bit. Not as bad as before. But don't get back on it. If you realize the need to stop, you should be proud to make it that long. Trust me, it's not something you want to be doing your whole life. I stopped at 26 after almost 10 yrs. of use, and it sucked. I had to lock myself in the bathroom for 2 weeks and sit in the bathtub, alternately turning on the hot and cold water to ride out the pangs and flashes and muscle cramps. I smoked a carton of cigarettes and played my cassettes until they wore out. When I came out, my junkie GF was gone(she banged on the door for the first 3 days begging me to come out so we could go cop), and there was an eviction notice on the door, but at least I was clean.
-
Find an NA meeting and get to it as soon as possible. I am not familiar with the withdrawals of heroin, but the fact that you have some is enough to at least try to reach out to an NA group. I recently relapsed myself, and my drug of choice is cocaine. Don't let the guilt and shame keep you isolated - there are people like me out there that can help you. Email me if you like, but look online for meetings in your area. Support is there if you want it. http://portaltools.na.org/portaltools/MeetingLoc/

i have been a addict for about 9 years now and have been clean so many times and thought i had kicked it! you just have to keep trying mate, the day you give up trying is the day you dye bassically. i'v been clean now for 3 years and i still get cravings now an then! but the answer to your Q is now you should'nt alot of it is in your head the more you think the more worse things seem!
-
Im no Dr but I have quit smoking and drinking. I would say Maybe you wont have to go through the physical addiction but You most definately are going to be fighing the Psychological one for a long long time. Get help, You cant and wont do it alone.
-
it's good to try to 'ween' yourself little by little. but you have to be careful chances are you'll feel like you just have to have it, but thats just a part of your brain that is addicted. you should really try to quit and maybe you could get some extra help or talk to someone its would help.
-
I'm guessing that you will have to go through a little bit of withrawal. Please get of the stuff though. It will end up killing you. Good luck=)
-
Man you gotta check in to some place where people around you will keep you accountable and support you. Believe me. I've been there. Pretty much impossible to kik a bad habit on your own. You can do it for a while. But man, the best thing you'll ever do is check in to a decent rehab; get yourself a whole new mindset...a whole new way to live. Bless ya man. You can do it. You inspire me. Strong person. 8 days is amazing all on your own! You've got sum serious will-power! Keep going strong man...x
-
not really...you may have a little chippie but try to plow through it. Dont' go back to that...it's alwasy the same. Stop messing with it if you have had a problem with it. You can stop; don't let anyone try to talk you into being a slave to 12 steps or to methadone treatment. It's not for everybody adn you eventually ahve to let it go and make your own life. Good luck and leave the dope alone. Also, don't drink or do any other things that will make you go back, at least for a while.
-
being a heroin addict, shouldnt you already know the answer to this???
-
Yes you will probably get some withdrawal symptoms. If you are an addict you cannot afford ever to backslide and you need to get some help and some knowledge from experts.
-
I suggest u do the same as MG (the first 1 who responded to ur qq. I wish u all the best. Don't forget..u probably have ppl who love u.
-
IVE SEEN WOT THAT CAN DO TO YOU AND ITS GOOD THAT YOU DECIDED TO STOP YOU WILL SLIP BACK TO START WITH BUT JUST BE STRONG AND IF YOU DONT WANT TO STOP THEN DONT FOOL YOUR SELF INTO THINKING YOU WILL STOP CUZ YOU WONT BUT IF YOU REALLY WANNA THEN YOU CAN STOP WELL DONE FOR TAKING THE FIRST STEPS YOU SHOULD BE REALLY PROUD OF YOURSELF BE STRONG HUN YOU CAN DO IT!!! P.S SORRY BOUT CAPS
-
No, but you are at high risk for a complete relapse. You should get back into treatment immediately.
-
yes once you are hooked on you are always gonna think about it even if not tomaro but maybe a week you will
-
Recovery is a process. Don't give up. And to answer your question, it depends on how severe your addiction is. The more severe, the more withdrawal symptoms, even after eight days clean.
-
Yes! Get professional help whatever way you have to. Good luck.
-
it all depends if you were shooting, snorting or smoking it before, how much you were doing. if you were doing alot and withdrew you know how horrible the experience is so i suggest not reliving that.. but if you smoked a little and you use to shoot alot everyday you will probably feel a cracving for it the next day or when it starts wearing off. if you dont do anymore you'll feel sick for a day or two but nothing compared to if you continue. if you feel sick go to detox though!
-
Well, you obviously have the desire to quit, but you're relapsing. If you keep relapsing and can't quit think about treatment, but unless you don't mind a long term commitment to treatment stay away from methadone. I've been in methadone treatment over 5 years going on 6 real soon. It works, but methadone is more addicting and harder to quit than heroin. In that nearly 6 years I've only taken 2 hydrocodones that did nothing for me only because I missed the clinic at x-mass and they were closed 4 days.. the cramps got unbearable. Give some serious thought to perhaps subutex or better known as buprenorphine which can be prescribed by a doctor and in some cases picked up at a pharmacy..I've never tried it, but it has a lot of promise from everything I've heard. Methadone has to be prescribed also, but you have to go to a clinic every day for at least the first 90 days then if you're lucky you'll get takeouts. Methadone is usually for maintenance long term treatment for people who used for years and years like myself...20 at least. They call methadone liquid handcuffs because of the fact you end up basically strapped or chained to the clinic for years most times. I started methadone right before buprenorphine came on the market and wish I could have waited, but no such luck.. Just don't listen to tall the wishy washy nitwits who tell you to pray or all the other foolishness. You can quit, but it takes real determination. If you keep relapsing you might get to the point like i did where you just can't go through months of withdraw anymore. I became suicidal over it till I had to leave my family behind and leave my home to go find treatment. It was that or death or prison. I'm allergic to both. And let me tell you if you don't already know jail is NO PLACE to do withdraw. Guards are NOT heroin addict friendly and neither are other inmates. Get in treatment somewhere if you keep relapsing. Don't fool around with it because each time it gets worse. Good luck.
-
no not if you fully kicked,it takes three days in a row to get a habit,i know i need to kick but cant cause my habit is to big,i need medical rehab but cant find it.

My dad was a Heroin user from 1973 to 1994. He had been in two car wrecks and has been shot 3 times, two of which were at point blank range; prison 3 times and in/out of numerous rehabs...he just one day hit what they call 'ROCK BOTTOM' and cleaned up his act and has been clean for 15 years now. He still faithfully goes to his meetings as well as counciling children who are hooked. He is a truck driver with a nice home now and married. I am so proud of him...eventhough he took almost everything from me I still love him 'cause he is my dad and we talk alot now. Please put God 1st and leave that stuff alone. It stinks, it makes you stink, and it stinks up the whole house. It also ages you 30 years older that what you are. You have done well, keep it up! Have faith! Tell yourself it's only a mind game and nothing controls you...Bless you and I love you as my brother/sister in Christ!
-
Just remember, everything is Yes/No. Fight that F*ckin Yes...Fight it. Say No, No, No....Do not let yourself Slip, do not make an excuse...there is non, you want to be better...stronger...faster...wiser. Fight it. I know you can do it, we all can...set your mind...and fight. Ill keep you in mind, and hope all goes well. Addiction is a beyotch...but we can fight it. Its all within us.

its gona be hard hun but u just have to do. I am only 23, i took heroin a week after my baby son was born as my idiot ex partner (who i only broke up with 2 months ago) practically begged me to give it a go. fair enough, i was curious enough to ry it and thought id never get addicted but oh how worng could i be?! here i am, my son is 5 now i have ben clean for 4 years (but i must admit with the odd relapse, and saying i am fully clean aint strictly true as i am on a methadone program) i havent even gotten 8 days into my withdrawal so i cant fully answer but even if i got into 2 days of it and did a small amount of heroin (smoked) it would take the edge off my withdrawal and i woudlnt feel as bad as i did, to be honest i did find it helped but without professional help it wont be controlled, as i just started doing it everyday again. So unless u can be super human and not ever touch it again (which i whole heartedly agree with the phrase one a heroin addict always a heroin addict) i advise u seek help. Its hard to admit u need medical advice to begin with (if u havent already) but well worth it in the end. Even though I am on methadone, my life is fully stable, i have a nice home a wondeful child, ditched the waster ex who wasnt interested in sorting his life out, and living life to the full. Good luck :-)
-
yea dude-depends on how much you smoked but at least you did just smoke it-but still you can get some shitty wds off smoking like a quarter balloon-it's not worth it dude..

You said it: what an idiot!
