danman83Participant
Tbh if it carrys on id leave if i was you. Your only young, your going to uni as well. You dont need this and you have no ties with him. Plus how much is the next bill he is going to rack up. But thats your decision.
danman83ParticipantYe but its only the 1st line or key that feels like that. The rest your just chasing for the 1st high.
September 5, 2019 at 9:51 pm in reply to: Had enough of cocaine! Coming off here for 5 week at least. #15051danman83Participant8 years about on and off.. was going out mainly using. But then i was obviously addicted so it came home with me when i stopped going out.
Im having it about once every 3 to 4 week. The start of the year it was 2 month. Then a month. And so on.
Ye just coke now
Use be weed as a teenager. But i dont smoke or out now.
danman83ParticipantWhat you mean now?
danman83ParticipantTough.
I ment
danman83ParticipantYe its a rough one. But we make our own decisions. My cousin gave me cocaine 1st. I crack jokes blaming him. But it was me who said yes.
We cant blame other people for our own actions. But thats just my opinion.
Your mate did great really and if it was me id be forever greatful, which i guess you are. But its time to cut out them mates altogether now. You have 4 kids and your health to think of now. You need some new hobbies
danman83ParticipantYe but its about cutting down the things to do with coke in your life. If you want to quit is it better to have 10 dealers in your phone book or 0 ? Id go for 0 if i want to quit.
Ye i can still get it not dealing with people, but it cuts my triggers down. If you see someone who has coke you know, it makes you want to have it.
And course you are going to get it on holiday! Its rife abroad.
Its in every pub in uk.. you have to avoid all pubs and clubs, not drink anymore, its hard and its frustrating. But these are the sacrifices addicts have to make.
danman83ParticipantHiya mate. Im same as you with a cocaine problem. Im doing my best to stop. I cant stand the suicidal thoughts and depression on the come down, especially when i have kids
Id delete everyone out your phone to do with coke. And never see anyone again to do with coke. Youve been given a 2nd chance in my eyes, so you can make it work. Could you not tell your gf? She could help you?
Id get to as many meetings as you can and use the services you have.
You have been so close to ending it, and its the drugs that make you like that.
Then nxt day or a few days after the park incident, was you glad you was stopped or not?
If this is what its doing to you and you want to carry on. Id go to every meeting you can and get as much support as you can and dont be ashamed. Im here anytime u need talk to anyone.
But dont deal with anyone to do with drugs now. Dont even drink! And take up some new hobbies. Listen to some cocaine recovery stories on you tube or podcast, they help me a lot.
danman83ParticipantI cant believe you was on the streets before you even did drugs.
But your friend did good helping you
Im in the same situation as you but im lapsing every couple of week. You have already been clean a year in the past . So i wouldnt beat myself up about it, and just get back on track. And do what you did last time to stop.
But u need not go out with anyone that does coke. And delete all your dealers numbers. Go back to some meetings again.
danman83ParticipantYe course. Dont worry about. Do as much searching about cocaine and recovery.
Look up emotional and mental, physical relapse aswell. But just keep an eye on your nose.
danman83Participant8 to 10 year.. not everyday or every week really. Just every couple of week. Some weekends it use be in a row. But its the downers and suicidal thoughts i cant cope with. And knowing i could of spent that money on my kids.
Every one u know to do with crack or coke. Delete and block there nums now. Take different routes walking even, so u dont bump in to people or places u have picked up. Dont associate with them. I know its hard. But it has to be done.
Download an app called pocket rehab. Its a bit like face book. But everyone is an addict or ex. And they help.each other. Its great!
danman83ParticipantWhats making him say he has bugs under his skin? Is he on coke when he is saying this??
danman83ParticipantTry not to beat yourself up about it. You have admitted you have a problem which is good. I get why you dont want to go to the docs and i dont blame you. But if it gets worse, id go the hospital.
It sounds like you have underlying problems from your parents passing away , to why your having so much. Which you obviously know. So could you not go to your docs and ask for some bereavement councilling. That would be a good start
I have a coke problem as well. Im having it once a month and ive cut down alot and ive learned a lot of coping skills you could say to help me.
So what you need to do and do it asap.
Delete all dealers nums, friends who use, fam who use. Come off social media! Im not on fb or insta. Believe me you feel better. That stuff is poison.
No alcohol what so ever as this leads to coke! Avoid places were you picked up coke!
Do you know what though, you should be proud of yourself, with the children you are taking on. Not many people would. Turn your negatives in to positives. This is great what you are doing. These kids need you. Believe in your self, tommorow is a new day and start thinking positive.
You need now to do some new hobbies are something to replace the coke. Write a list down and do them each day, especially when u get cravings. Walk, park, paint with the kids. Build things with the kids.
Its perfect for you this now, you can do so many activities with the kids to keep you busy.
Weekends when they are in bed, read a book or something or tv series binge. To keep your mind active. I listen to cocaine recovery stories on you tube they help alot.
I guess when your a few month clean then get your nose sorted. Then if any problems you can do a test and prove your clean. But do not use anymore because of your nose. Feel free to ask me anything
danman83ParticipantHi susie hope you are ok. I guess but i could be wrong, the crack now is some sort of escapeism fron the wheelchair and then its back to normal on the comedown. Its just going to be a vicicous circle for her.
Where is she getting the crack from?
I dont mean to be rude, but she cant be going far if shes in a wheelchair. Im only saying this is because i guess it would be easier to cut off her contacts in getting it.
So delete all dealers nums out her phone. If any dealers bring it to her tell them to stop.
But the main thing is.. she has to want to stop herself. Her mental state is just going to get worse taking that, while confined to a wheel chair. I dont blame her wanting to end it.
Watch louise clarke on you tube on crack cocaine part 123 she helps addicts and knows her stuff and her vids will help alot.
Does you daughter want to quit? Is she in the house on her own alot?
danman83ParticipantI do yes.. i was bad on weed from 14 to 19. I dont touch it now. And i basically messed around with the wrong people, failed my gcses. I wish i could go back and start again. But ive got my kids the way i am. But i do a lot of thinking and regret alot of my past mistakes. But it makes me put these teachings in to my children, and my eldest doesnt take drugs,and is no were near as bad as i was. So im happy that way.
Id say id be a more motivated person. Im going to teach my self how to plaster and tile this month. These things i regret not doing when i was younger .
