Re: Positional Asphyxia in Opioid‐Related Deaths
Not really. My addiction was born out of the nightmarish childhood I had, I used drugs as a means of escape, but that was pleasurable sometimes. I wasn't addicted straight away as I went through an assortment of substances from age 10/12 it was gradual. I started with alcohol and worked my way up to heroin + Fentanyl. You're in luck you or any of your family are addicts. Do you drink any alcohol? |

Re: Positional Asphyxia in Opioid‐Related Deaths
I know of people who have successfully used kratom to kick. Me personally, Suboxone is what has kept me clean the last 3 years.

Re: Positional Asphyxia in Opioid‐Related Deaths
I too had experience with Suboxone. For 1 year. When I tried to wean off of it, it was the worst I have ever felt in my life. I found that the normal 10-14 days they say withdrawal lasts... is grossly incorrect. After 2 months of barely being able to function in many ways, I found Kratom. And that was the beginning of finally overcoming my dependence on pain medication. I did some research after feeling better and discovered something called PAWS (Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome). The longer a substance builds up in your body, the better the chance PAWS can occur. There is lots of much better information about it on the internet from when I first found out about it in 2007. It may also vary from person to person. But suboxone is widely known to cause it. If you ever decide to get off Subs, I highly recommend considering Kratom. It literally saved my life. But do your research well ahead of time and be prepared for when that time comes. Maybe one day soon I will create a post about my specific experience with it including the different strains, dosages, and methods of taking Kratom.

Re: Positional Asphyxia in Opioid‐Related Deaths
Drug addiction is itself commonly only a symptom of some other, often undiagnosed and untreated, issue for which the individual is self-medicating. You can thank Nixon and Reagan and Biden (in particular) for demonizing people with addiction problems for their own political ends. If you think a drug user "deserves it" or "had it coming" then you're simply ignorant of the situation, espousing a knee-jerk reaction derived from decades of dishonest propaganda. A drug user does not "deserve" dying of an overdose anymore than someone with a cut on their finger "deserves" dying of septic shock. |
