Hi mikey. Ive just lapsed after 6 week on coke. I hate the stuff.. it makes me suicidal.. download the app pocket rehab. Its great and everyone helps each other out with there addictions.
Ill give u my num pal. And just giz a text.. and ill txt u with how im coping with out it and how i am beating it.. watch louise clarke on you tube coke crack part123.. shes and expert and will help you to quit.
Well you just keep doing what you gut instinct tells you to do..
How the hell can he say all that.. after you have paid that for the garage?? Bit nasty. Saying as you help him out.
I feel guilty now mentioning that video.. but hes a grown man and should expect his mum to be worried. Its not like you have done something bad. Your doing what any mum would do.
Does he have a partner or close cousins? Could you not ask them if hes using? But then again will he go mad if your asking?
It does seem like he is on coke. But you dont really know till he admits it or you find it on him. And i wouldnt want to see you lose your relationship over your son on assumption.
Maybe.. this is just my opinion.. just say something like.. ok.. im just worried about you.. i wont bring it up again.. i dont want to lose you or my grandaughter, but im here for you no matter what, and you can tell me anything… thats just my opinion.
But i hope it goes well for you.
Hi lexi.. im in same boat as your husband. But im doing my very best to stop. And the good thing and main thing is he wants to stop.
Whats happened to him is whats happened to me.. you take it coke on nights out.. for years.. you stop going out.. but your addicted and use coke on your own in the house!. Its sad, but its a disease at the end of the day.
I quit on new years ever after 8 years on n off of it. Mainly once ever couple of week.
Coming down of it.. it makes you suicidal.. depressed. Its not good at all. And thats why i have to stop.
After 8 weeks i lapsed. But since then its been 5 week. So ive had it once in 3 month.
To stop.. your hubby needs to cut all his mates off to do with coke! Delete there numbers! And dealers! Even avoid family who take it!
Avoid alcohol! It triggers it.. and is my main trigger to use.
Avoid pubs and going out.. stick to cinema and restaurants. It will be really hard but then, you have to say how bad do you want to stop?
He needs to change his routine around, go gym.. walking, decorate, focus on saving for something. Any new hobbies to distract you.
Also watch some videos on you tube of louise clarke on crack-cocaine part 123.. they are great and she teachers you things i didnt even know about coke and how to stop.
There is an app called pocket rehab.. its great! Tell him download it. . Its were addicts and ex help each other, and tell there stories and press a panic button to get put through to another addict or ex.. to talk u out of using. You basically help one another.
But this all narrows down to how much he wants it. I dont want to lose my children or kids. He needs stay in for a while. And take each day as it comes. Just ask if u need any help. Good luck
Is he still using?
Id tell his family.. i told my mum and asked for help and i was ashamed of my self. But she checks and helps me alot. He needs support to fight this disease, not to keep it all locked up inside.
Ive lapsed 1 time bella since new years eve. I hate the stuff. But when i have alcohol.. i need to get some coke. So i have quit it.
Ill tell you what i have done to quit and hope it helps
Firstly .. he must want to quit.. thats the main thing. Then the rest will fall in to place but its hard.
He needs to cut off everyone to do with coke! Friends, dealers.. even family who take it. Delete all there numbers. Dont block there numbers as they stay on the phone.. delete them!
Avoid alcohol.. going to the pub. Just stick to nice meals or cinema or things like this.
Avoid trigger points.. i.e.. corner shop were he picked coke up.. or driving past houses were hes partied. This makes you want to get coke.
Come off all social media! Start a new life.. change things.. start going the gym.. walking.. reading.. decorating.. anything.
And watch louise clarke on you tube on crack cocaine part 123.. this women is an expert in it all.. and she will explain it soo well what it does and how to stop.
Hope this helps. Just ask if you need out bella
Im not too sure about the sunken eyes thingy.. but. . My gf 100 % knows when i have had it.. my eyes are like popping out of my head. Ill try and avoid eye contact with her.. and they are shinny and you can just tell.
Id say id let u know what my pupils are next time.. but i dont intend using.
Im getting that hes denying taking coke then? Am i right? And if he is… whats making you think he is?
Ive neally gone through with suicide..from that stuff. Can you imagine what it would of done to my kids. It breaks me sometimes what ive been like. And im just an average hard working good dad. I dont go out, i just stay in with my gf and kids now.
If he is saying you have no idea and its not coke.. could it be something else?
Hi there hope your ok?, anyway.. im going through a cocaine problem right now.. im 35, 4 kids.. and a partner and we all live together. I quit on new years eve. Which ill explain in a min why.. but i lapsed 2 month later.. then ive not touched it for 5 week since then. So its been once since new year.
I was having it in the house on my own, after i had stop going out at the weekends. I never thought i was addicted.. but i was. I was just having it fridays.. every couple of week.. or once a month.
For abour 6 to 8 years.
If you take coke just once a month for 6 month.. your addicted! Watch louise clarke on you tube on crack cocaine part 123.. shes great and can help your son to quit.. and make yourself aware of it!
When the coke wears off, its called a comedown.. this sends me depressed and suicidal. Its really not good at all. And in them videos it explains why. Its horrible. Ive been crying in the house on my own. I know people that have killed them selfs down from it.
Now.. me personally id have a quiet, no shouting chat with your son.
But this is what he needs to do to stop. With what i have done and researched
Stay away from anyone to do with coke. Delete mates, dealers numbers.
Dont drink any alcohol! As this triggers you to want to get coke.
Take up some new hobbies. Change your whole routine around! Talk to people. Look up emotional, mental, and physical relapse.
But the main thing is.. HE HAS TO WANT TO QUIT HIMSELF!! you cant force him..
I hate the stuff.. but if i had a drink now. Ill get coke within 10 min.. hope this helps
Hey loz. Hope your ok.. my problem is with coke as well.. im doing my best to stop. I lapsed after 2 month clean the other week. But im back not taking it again..
What are you doing to stop it?
My main trigger is alcohol. The minute im drinking..im getting it dropped off asap.
Watch louise clarke on you tube about crack n cocaine. She will help you and make u aware how to deal with cravings. Shes great
