fireman 10,774 Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 I used to have a large valium script and i'd only take them for 2 days a week as i although i had a life destroying smack habit i knew with that that one day i could get clean.With Valium i knew if i got a Valium habit i'd never come off them as i have never met anyone who has managed to kick a valium habit yet i know plenty of ex junkies and ex drinkers who are clean of everything..Fecked my script off after a while as it scared me to much.. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A real good friend of mine fecked off his smack habit when he had a bag of smack then got a drugs test and it came up for barbs (valium) with no opiates(heroin)in it at all,he's never knowingly taken a barb in his life..Sad to hear life's like that for so many folk,such a waste of life eh..

pesky1972 4,926 Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Seems we did win Euro ‘20 after all More than 1,200 people in Scotland died of drug misuse last year, new figures show. The much-delayed figures show a record number of deaths for the sixth year in a row and the highest total since records began in 1996. The figure of 1,264 is a 6% increase on 2018 and more than double the number of deaths in 2014. It is the worst rate recorded in Europe and about three and a half times the rate for England and Wales. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But before you started on smack did you not see what it done to people. That's what I always find baffling nothing about it seems appealing I'm totaly cool with any questions mate as if i can educate even someone who won't ever take the stuff the knowledge they may gain might just might help someone else in the future in some way.I ruined my life,my kids lives and the woman i loved and i knew all the time sort of what was happening but i couldn't put the brakes on. My story is i deb't collected for a lass i knew and got given a car,i sold the car for smack and sold it,i dabbled with my stash and dabbled to much and after 2 weeks i had a habit,i carried on selling it to support my habit etc etc,my misses at the time begged me just to sell it as a lump and get rid asap,my words to her were "i'll be ok,what am i,a fcuking idiot"? and how those words haunted me for the next ten years.. But to give a little perspective on giving up,a habit is called a habit because it is a habitual thing,a thing that takes up 24/7 for a junkie and try to start tomorrow without thinking of this forum,don't think about anyone on it,about any subjects were talking about.You won't be able to as it's a little habit for all of us when we come on here and we miss it when we don't,now imagine trying to forget a thing that has been your life 24/7 while you feel like shit,you also got to forget your mates as the only mates a junkie has are other junkies,so your alone and feeling shit trying to forget your 24/7 life of drug addiction, it ain't easy and i know it was and is all our own faults but thank feck i lived on hippy sites and had wonderful friends that gave me a chance to break free of it all whilst still being around good clean people rather than being in a grotty flat on a shite estate with nothing and not a lot to look forward to even if you did get clean.I do real feel for townie junkies as if i had been one hand on heart i don't know if i could have done it on my own like that... 21 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
