Question by saifali_1993: What is it like to go through cold turkey for drug addiction?
I would like detail in relation to the mental and physical pain that people go through. And personal experiences to do with thoughts and feelings at the time. The way you moved, walked, talked, as much detail as possible. What made you take this drastic decision? did it work? How did it feel?
Im supposed to play a drug addict putting himself through cold turkey for an Drama exam monologue. PLEASE help! 🙂
Thanks ^^

Question by Mrs.Spears: suboxone withdrawals, need advice?
ok I have ask this question twice before and can never seem to get a direct answer. I am currently going through withdrawals from suboxone, nothing to severe except the muscle aches and restless legs, my question is, if I take a lortab or tylenol 3 when I need it most (no more than 1 a day) will that prolong the withdrawals or will it help me get through the withdrawals?? I only have 4 lortabs and 2 tylenol 3’s so its not like I am going to get addicted to those. Basically like taking motrin or something this is just a little stronger. I hope someone can answer my question directly, will it prolong the withdrawals or will it help?? any advice will be helpful, thank you in advance.

Question by Lisa H: Heroin addict trying to “cold turkey”..what can I do to help??
I picked up an homeless acquaintance literally “off the street” …says he’s serious about trying to kick; giving him his prescription meds, Clonapin, Seroquel and Trazadone; he’s disoriented when awake; trying to keep him resting & comfortable; last fix 6am today; ANY suggestions welcome!
(he’s done the inpatient thing several times with no success)
UPDATE: Friday June 23…..I feel that I have failed my friend, but three days and three nights dealing with a heroin addict have exhausted me, mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually…..had to take him back downtown this morning as he has gotten progressively sicker…he refused to go back into a rehab facility, although I begged him to do so. However, my conscience is clear; I fed him and provided every material thing he needed; all I can do now is pray for him. A recovering alcoholic myself, I realized that I have put myself in danger of losing my sobriety, and I cannot risk that. THANKS to ALL of you for your answers, your prayers and support. Peace to all.    Read more...
