2 weeks clean today from opiates! A major accomplishment for me. The first few days were hell! No motivation, energy or desire to even get out of bed. Brutal! Your videos helped me so much, mostly to know I wasn't alone but also to keep me encouraged that recovery is SO worth it. Started getting a ton of energy back, within about a week. I know I'm only 2 weeks in, but I feel like this time is different for me. Much love and prayers to all who are struggling.

Hey Becky, thanks for sharing that! I've been trying to find people like you on here to ask them what made you finally hit the breaking point and what made you want to change yourself instead of justifying it? I am struggling trying to get my best friend to stop, all the while pushing her further away. Congratulations on the two weeks! Don't give up! If you can get through this you can do anything. Your spirit is strong! God bless you!

This is 100% true. I think back to my active addiction, and sometimes it makes me wanna cry. I stole from my mother, my step dad, my little sister and brother, basically anyone who trusted me enough to give me those types of opportunities. Im staying with my family right now, even after all i did to them, they still love me, and whats more, they trust me again. I know im an addict for life, but i dont have to be an active addict. Great words man. Thanks for that.

Suboxone literally saved my life! My ex BF is now with another girl addict (and dealer). He was SO mean in the morning when he was sick until he got his Methadone. Now, he's with her and started up again. I'm so thankful to God every day that I'm not in that life anymore. It was absolute HELL!!!

folks. i have many family members whom i have tried to help get off of drugs that ended up dying. they were never able to quit. My mom, dad, uncle, and little sister. Because of my family's drug addictions, my life is pretty shitty right now. And now they are all gone and don't have to deal with the mess they have made. To the people dealing with those addicted: Dont fall for the "I just wish someone could help me" speech that I am sure you have heard as many times as i have. Dont make the same mistakes I did. stay by their side, but also realize YOU MUST FREE YOURSELF FROM THE GUILT OF CUTTING THEM OUT OF YOUR LIFE SO YOU CAN FOCUS ON YOUR OWN. YOU HAVE YOUR OWN LIFE TO LIVE. To the people addicted: You can have all the help in the world, but the only person who truly is in control of you IS YOU. You're only postponing the inevitable. There is no way to avoid withdrawals. Accept that it is part of the healing. So will you decide to begin your withdrawals today? or tomorrow? or after this next hit? maybe next month? sure you will..... there is no logical reasoning in a mind that values drugs on the same level as food/water. sorry for how brash that sounds, but i have lost sensitivity towards this subject over time.

I have been a heroin IV user for 3 years on and off and have been 3 months clean on suboxone. today was hard. it was one of those days where I just couldn't get myself to take my medication, and was starting to plan and scheme of ways to get high over the weekend... I get so upset when I feel this way and just want it to stop. anyways.. I just wanted to say thanks for your videos. they have actually really helped my mindset today and I just dissolved my suboxone like it was nothing. watching someone like you after 4 or so years of being clean and seeing that you are a perfectly comfortable and healthy being is inspiring.

Even after so many years of sobriety I still get a little bit of myself back everyday. Now the tables have turned. The addict is now the stranger to me.

Hi Ryan, I really liked your video. I am a mother of a recovered opiate addict. My son was 19 years old when he became addicted to opiates. You are completely right when you say that the person who is addicted to opiates becomes a different person. I loved my son so much and knew that he did not want to be the way the drug was making him behave. Still, it was a very difficult time. His story is very special and I would love to share it with anyone interested, but I do not want to take up space in this format to do that. Suffice to say that a natural plant medicine, along with Love from certain family members and friends and a job opportunity saved his life. I realize that not everyone gets that much luck! Bringing you up to date currently, my son is 33 years old and thriving with the rest of his life before him. I couldn't be more proud of him. His plight lasted ten years in total. My life, however, has continued along the same path even though I have grown and changed throughout all of life's lessons. My boyfriend, who I love more than words can say, has now found himself in the same situation as my son. Granted, my boyfriend is 16 years my junior; however, I believe opiate addiction can happen to anyone at any age. So, I am asking for advice from anyone who feels this pain. I really can't believe I am going through the same thing again, yet feels different. This is my partner in life, yet Love is the answer in my mind, without judgment and with complete unconditional Love. I am 61 years old, am a practitioner of shamanism, am sensitive, empathic, and loving. I would appreciate any help!

It's because of how fast and how much your brain changes that you don't feel like you'll ever be happy again. When you stop using and give your brain time , it will go back to how it used to be and you will find joy in the simple thina in life again and find happiness - Or should I say choose happiness - again. I am here to talk I know you may think who am I but I hope you something gives and you are able to find peace in sobriety .. as addicting as methadone is ; I've seen it change peoples lives ... I have been working at a methadone clinic for 2 years. I see both sides. There's some that keep getting increases and also use or also take other prescriptions / abuse other prescriptions or drink when on methadone and try to just stay fucked up everyday .... I've also see some that have found a balance and have remained clean from using outside of methadone and have been able to maintain the routine of methadone and outside lIves ... I have also seen people who are addicted come in and work the program ( because mandatory counseling is also included as well as groups in the treatment as a whole) and create a plan to taper ( slowly decrease the amount of medication / methadone, at whatever rate you choose -as little as 1 mg a month-, until out of the program because you've got your dose down to 0 .. u no longer need it ) out of the program and go on to live life without anything at all. Yes, there are people who try to leave and relapse but at least your tried and your can always go back if you relapse. I think it's worth it to stop usin whether you are able to do it by suffering through the withdrawals or you need medicated therapy .. stopping using is the main objective ...

This video is spot on as always. At one year two months and three days clean I can tell you that you are not the same person you were when you were using. Every act and facet of life is consumed with the thought of a pill in active use. Now I no longer see things in "pill form" but in the reality of what it is. I truly pray that if you are a loved one of an addict this will better your understanding of an addicts mindset and the struggle of addiction.

shane donohue awesome AWESOME awesome perfect attitude mindset take the time to reach your point correctly. I think while actively searching the lack of a stable source/supply of a helpful substance regulated and with a Ceiling affect like suboxone, that lack of stability carries over and never can be reliable, but that is something a methadone or then suboxone regiment can be the life saving stability factor needed. If you break your Leg legitimately need a crutch and this kind of a break is no different, just worse. So crutch it up. Only way to learn to walk RIGHT.

When u are in recovery it is sometimes too hard to think about the things u did before getting clean. Hurting the ppl who love u and want to help you...it's hard. Then u don't want to dwell on the pain u caused because that makea u feel like a victim somehow and as addicts we aren't victims. We make victims from the ppl we damage with our poor life choices. Not saying everyone became an addict did so by choice,but every addict that stole or hurt someone they loved knew what they were doing. No matter the guilt u felt after u knew that it would hurt them and to not care is...idk man. I find that I have emotions I didn't have while using, one of them being severe guilt and fear of the karma from what I have done. Addiction is selfish on all ends. I feel like as an addict I stunted my mental growth since I started so young. I used to make so many excuses as to what brought me to that point, but in reality I could've stopped long before I got there and I didn't. I was a child who was introduced to the wrong ppl but as a woman I should've known. Im sorry to the ppl I have hurt. So sorry. I have to succeed to pay back the ppl who stood by me through the rls, mood swings, suicide attempts, relapses, mental breakdowns, crawling to the bathroom, sweating so much I had to chane clothes 20 times a day...the ppl who loved me enough to see the ugliest part of me and love me still. Some ppl don't have that and Im sorry. If u are getting through this alone I'm sorry, but u have to. For your life you have to.

What does this mean for individuals who are forced or stuck taking meds for chronic pain. I have a fractured L2 with multidisc degeneration and at this point there is no workable surgical procedure to fix my injury. Without my meds I cannot walk let alone work. I have been having to take these meds for 4 years and my tolerance has plained and is manageable for me. Yet my wife began stealing my meds a couple years ago and now is addicted. I am always on the lookout for new surgical procedures but there isnt much new out there. So as a person who is addicted due to necessity how do I maintain myself, my personality, how do I stay who I am. I have even weened myself 9off the meds to see if I can function with the pain and it just never works out. I dont even take my full prescription.

Is hard to face what you did and overcome it but you'll have to in order to take control and start livingr right or you're just going to harbor that unfazed guilt and keep pilling more on top of it until you reag the point you think it can never be amended and try to make the best of it which never works out, or they finally do whatever let's it all go. So they have to like you had to, with our without their help, and once you're free and grounded you can remember what you were like and try to have patience. And I said something in the last video that I should probably say again here---- (next post)

Stay away from any doctor or hospital that needs you more than you need them. Shaking hands w MD’s = them shaking down insurance. Watch out 4 “security” & long term patients who know how to play up to staff & administration.

Hey Ryan, I have been clean from opiates no around 5 months now. I did it with Loporimide. what's up with all this sexual energy? I am 48 but feel like 16. Thanks for saving my life. Frank

Great video. My girlfriend of the last 6 months recently took off with the $700 she owes me and some of my tools. She claimed the money was stolen out of her wallet. Will bring my tools back "next week". That was 2 months ago. She is suffering from an opiate addiction. She even told me a few months ago. "If I push you away, don't take it personally". Live and learn..

David Cota my dad has the same story. 12 years later I'm clean. If he hadn't been there when I came to want help I don't know where i would be. find support with other loved ones of addicts and don't give up.

@abbycadabbie 6 жыл бұрын

David Cota hun, as a drug addict my self, that isn’t your son. When someone develops a problem, drugs take control of their physical body, and their mind. They are still deep down in there, but they have no say as to what happens, or what they do. Being addicted to drugs is like being in an abusive relationship. You’re afraid to get help, you are afraid to stop because you know the consequences, it has complete control over you, and it beats you down till you feel completely worthless with out it. My best advice is to be supportive and be a friend, don’t shame the person, and make them feel like even more crap than they already do.

@beckyg927 6 жыл бұрын

David Cota , never give up. It took me almost 20 years to say "enough is enough". I had to go to jail b/c of drugs, couple of rehabs, but until I hit MY rock bottom (overdosing in front of my husband and 11 year son) before I finally said f*** this s***. I want to live! So never give up hope. Praying for u

The Steven Soderbergh movie “Unsane” covered what many know but no1 talks ab’t. Reviews more concerned w camerawork & not hot button sanctioned routine corporate rehab & insurance fraud, OCD stalking & reversal, Matt Damon cameo. Reviewers purposely emphasized the unimportant & irrelevant. And yes, one plot hole & so what.
