Quitting drugs

Yeah as the title says.. I'm a frequent user meaning daily or every other day of the following
obviously weed,lean, DXM, xanax and klonopins, I've been user for about 2 years non stop and I have entered into a stage that nothing feels pleasurable anymore and drugs don't provide me the same escape they have before, I wonder how I will do? I decided to get so fucked up tonight as a bye bye ceremony but I seriously feel for the future will I ever be fine? will I overcome the cravings and withdrawals?
Post your stories and comment any tips that help me and other users out.


I myself will give a 1 week detox by of course doing no drugs, then start on a psychiatric treatment of zoloft 50 mg for the depression, 2 mg xanax as needed up to 3 x per day and 5mg olanzapine during my emotional crisis like crying spiels aggressiveness, mania among others.

I've seen people give up crack and heroin.

You CAN do it. Your back up plan seems doubtful.

Can you seek prof help?
The back up? it's what I'll be doing and this under medical supervision and of course the treatment was the one my psychiatrist choose, he knows everything.. I never actually tried quiting until now so like I said before I wonder how the future will be.

I know of hardcore junkies who have stopped and went on to thrive.
At some point it will feel normal being straight.

When that will happen for you no one can say.

Most hard cases who make it ime struggle.

No short cut here.
I agree with some support be it professional or lay.

Good luck.

I would be on of those :D

I used to be into drugs bad, and when I say bad that doesn't even begin to describe it.

It's not the taking of drugs that's the bad thing, it's your mindset and the reason(s) you take them. Drugs/alcohol of any type consumed for the wrong reasons will just make your problems worse... Addiction/dependency starts in your head and frame of mind, nothing else. Deal with the shit you have and get the monkeys off your back, then partake in recreational use. Take a scheduled break from whatever it is once in a while to provide a reality check. Taking pills to fix say simple anxiety is a really bad band-aid which will likely lead to having to take more or something different, doctors prescribing pills for simple shit that could be resolved by dealing with the root cause is fucking beyond me. Only thing I'd prescribe is some reflection on what is causing your problems, get off the pills and maybe some ganja to bring you down to earth while you sort shit out. North American society is fucked with this unlimited supply of pharma drugs and prescribed for simple shit that could be fixed with some basic psychology, or maybe a back slap across the back of the head...

Mmmmm Drugs!!! You can do it man. Just know what to expect and you'll be fine. First week is the worst. After that it gets a little easier every day. Every once in a while something will happen and you'll be like "FUCK" I gotta go pick up. Just don't, take some night-quill and sleep the first 3 days.

I use to shoot up H and Coke when it was available. I quite everything for 14 months, no alcohol, nothing. Just lots of coffee and cigs oh and candy. Candy helps. Now smoke cannabis again and drink Alcohol.

I'll probably get a lot of hate but AA really helped me. Even though I was there for drugs. Having support takes a huge load off your shoulders. especially when the day comes that you say FUck this! Call someone or do something. Just don't use.

It really is easy, its just fucking hard. If that makes any sense.

lmao, I'm likely old enough to be your dad... although most dad's wouldn't prescribe homegrown ganja to ground you while you sorted out your troubles ;)
My dad preferred I did that other then everything else I did. As long as I kept my shit straight and my nose clean, pun intended then we were cool. :D
