My prayers and best wishes go out to you and your family in this turbulent period. Do not harm yourself -- there is no redo there. And it would hurt your family and friends, including here, for far, far longer than it will take to lick this addiction.

But if you have an aversion to doctors and the pills they push, there are some experimental remedies in holistic herbal medicine being explored by places like Columbia University. It involves a single rather large dose 2-3x normal of psilocybin (magic mushroom). I would be inclined to follow that up with several spliffs of good "head-high" cannabis sativa to provide a relaxing 2 day period of meditation afterwards.

Best of luck with this struggle -- you can make it. Just don't give up, okay?

Dont take more than one a day though so u can use them to transition off the stuff. If you can, wean off them after a couple months or if your still tempted to use u can stay on them as a maintanace plan to keep you clean.
Good Luck+

The Clubs in BC are now conducting a study for ppl hooked on optiates that want to use cannabis to come off of them . So yes cannabis is EXTREMELY EFFECTIVE in helping ppl withdrawl from drugs all types of drugs. It's a 1 years study going on in BC right now. One of the things that is effective is "tincture" and "olive oil and cannabis" and many of the eatiable products peace out Headband707

In 1980-84, I had a 15 dilaudid a day habit (4MG), which was costing $500 per day. My weight went from 190 to 137 pounds, because when you are that high you just don't feel hunger. Several friends died from it, and I realized that I was next if I didn't quit. So, I made up my mind. That is the most important part. You have to make up your mind. I rented a house and stayed inside with my dogs and went through the terrible pain & anxiety of full blown withdrawel for 6 months. During that time, the most sleep I got was 2 hours. I would awaken as if from a nightmare in a fright and a cold sweat. I did use valium for the anxiety. After 6 long and brutal months, I awoke and it was gone, as if overnight. Physical withdrawel from opiates will not kill you. It's more dangerous to withdraw from barbiturates or valium, as you can have seizures which can be potentially fatal. Although you may feel you are going to die, or even want to die, you will not. You must first steel yourself to the unpleasantness and be ready to endure it. It seems like it will never end, but it does. It doesn't sound like you have really made up your mind yet.
Once you do, you can do it, no matter how unpleasant it is.
You just have to make up your mind. Cold turkey will not kill you! But continuing on your path will. Make up your mind and do it. There's no easy way. It's not a matter of prayer or luck, it's a matter of will. Only you can make up your mind.

Thank you everyone, your all so kind.

Today I have done much better, I did a 1/2 of what i did yesterday.
Tomorrow I hope to do 1/2 of what i did today. then finally stop.

Its difficult, i love all the love i am feeling from the community.

So, i am not stopping cold turkey, i am trying to ween myself off of it, its starting to look better for me now. I looked into some therapy... not my cup of tea but we shall see the outcome. I just don't want to die alone and high.

If anyone needs a buddy right now it isn't just me its everyone.. I love every single individual on these forums, were a family!

Treatments I looked into: Ketamine,Ibogaine,Suboxone,Met hadone,Cannabis,and even chocolate.

If i could afford any of those right now id be on them in a second, i don't have a grow going on which makes me depressed.. adds to me wanting to use

Love all of you!

I have wasted at least $1000 a month on my drug habit. My whole family and my friends have noticed and are deeply concerned about my health, i have lost 10 pounds and look like a walking zombie, pale, dark rings around my eyes, slowed speech, and no feelings of emotions. This addiction has made me so desprite to stop that i honestly thought about taking my own life to get out of the situation I am in, So now I am trying to quit cold turkey so ill be feeling like complete crap and have a feeling of complete loss of control for the next weeks to come.

I just want some positive vibes and some support from our wonderful cannabis family here on the IC.

Thank you...

Hey brother, we don't know each other, nor have we ever communicated on this site but I know exactly how you feel. Stay strong and don't give up hope. I was caught up with oxycontin and ended up doing heroin for the last 18 months of my addiction that lasted from the time I was 15 to age 20. My military career was cut short but I can honestly say cannabis saved my life as well as going cold turkey because those damn detox opiates are even more addictive and I found that out the hard way. I will pray for you and if you ever need someone to talk to for support hit me up man! Sending nothing but positive vibes and 110% support. YOU CAN GET THROUGH THIS!!
