Cold turkey- help me when I'm tempted

[rainbowdash17]

I'm about to go cold turkey from cocaine.
It's time to! Definitely
My weak points are when I'm tempted to buy some (usually evenings)

Can I message on here when I'm tempted for a pep talk on why I shouldn't & reassurance that it's ok?
I think it would really help me

Do you reckon we can do this?

Lost- wine and fags I like. Addict I am!

Serial I have often likened my addiction to being unable to resist a "sexy" yet "shitbag" of a man.

Serial and lost your banter I love

Good night you amazing crazy ladies

I know what you mean flat but lose the guilt. We're all human, no one is perfect. Admitting it was a problem and turning things around is huge.

Shouting Fuck You Cocaine feels therapeutic (in my head, what would the neighbours think)

Going to sleep now, so tired. Night all.

Night all! Listening to some tunes then going to bed! Might shout "fuck you cocaine" out the window for a laugh! Live in middle class pensionerville - would be hilarious!

Hahaha serial, do it! I'm imagining an elderly couple next to each other in bed reading, hearing you shout FUCK YOU COCAINE!!!!!!, then just looking at each other and shrugging before going back to their books lol

Bed time old skool tune. Enjoy surfers! m.youtube.com/watch?v=daoY5iPorMc

Morning lovely ladies!

Yy to the boyfriend analogies. I was 'fine' bumbling away through my grief over the last couple of years but when I made the decision to stop or at least cut down dramatically I told dh that I didn't want the white lady to be the third person in our marriage because I could see it going that way.

Dh told me not to beat myself up about my dalliance on Friday and reminded me that in a 'normal' week two years ago we'd have spent wasted hundreds so that put the cheeky line in perspective. So to cut a long story short we've booked flights to go and visit friends at Easter as an incentive to stay focussed and this was obviously a far, far better use of £500 than 5 or 6 grams of gear could ever be. It's positively scary how much money we used to piss away but I'm not going to dwell on it. Onwards and upwards!

PS there is a thread asking how ppl chose their username... I was a bit too to post on that one lol. Happy Sunday!

Happy Sunday! Feel a bit better today - hurrah!

Woken up with my normal head on today thank goodness. God that stuff messes with your head.

Cleaning booking an Easter trip away is a great idea. It's lovely to have good things to look forward to that don't involve the White Lady or the Sexy White shitbag boyfriend as flat calls it.

Here's to keeping it real and finding a new happiness

Morning ladies...just surfacing now after a lovely natural (rather than coke induced) lie in. Such positive posts. Cleaning great move booking the holiday and Lost, I absolutely relate to the new kind of happiness idea. Serial loved your YouTube post and pensionville comment....I had no idea you are a pensioner

I had no idea you are a pensioner tee hee

I feel like one at the moment!!

Serial!!! Your post came up first on Threads I'm On and I'd missed the pensioner banter.

For a second I thought you felt like a line... at half 9 in the morning

morning serial at least you're a bit better. Can't wait for spring, less colds and bugs and we'll all be healthy bunnies bouncing about in the sun.

Ha ha you gave Cleaning a hernia!

Indeed she did!

Very exciting day over here today... I'm cleaning out my..... cleaning product cupboard 😂

Haha!!! I'm not THAT hardcore!

Hi all well as presumed we ended up taking stuff on Friday.

We went out for dinner and drinks and I'd used my dh phone to send my sister and seen he'd already arranged to get stuff.

Went to a friends till about three am came home and stayed up a couple of hours. Came to bed and I did not and could not sleep. Absolute torture. I felt so crap yesterday couldn't even turn my mob on I had such fear.

Won't be touching alcohol for awhile as it just leads on to taking stuff.

Cleaning one line doesn't count well done for not taking more! Lost, onwards and upwards! Serial you are doing so well! Four weeks is amazing. Spun hope all goes well tomorro. Flat, thanks for asking g after me, hope you are having a great weekend.

Thanks, Spun glad you're back on the surfboard with us .

Hope you're feeling better today. The come down is just awful isn't it? For some reason, if I do slip up, I never think about the crash afterwards or I convince myself I'll be fine the next day . I must block it all out or something because of course it never ends well!

I'm also sending my best wishes to Spun for tomorrow We're here if you need us.Hope you're ok tonight.

Sorry, Got called you Spun at the start of that post, apologies!

Got glad to hear from you, but sorry about the horrible comedown yesterday. I swear our brains get rewired to just not remember the horrible price we have to pay the following day. It's great your back on the surf board though, serial has been keeping it nicely polished for us all. Here's to another week, let's all try to keep inching forward!

Got, sorry you felt so horrible yesterday. We're at the start of another week - the surfboard is ready!

Feeling quite meh and down and sad today. What's that all about?! No particular reason either. Meh!!

Flat you are very knowledgeable on the science behind these things. I'm promoting you to professor of the thread, so we'll direct any questions about chemicals, amino acids and brain rewiring your way.

Hope you've had a good weekend in your cottage.

Oh dear serial, you have been ill though, maybe it's taken it out of you?
Or it's the February blues? I hate all the drab weather.

Hope Pro Flat comes back with a possible hypothesis to cheer you up.

Lost, kind as always! Think being ill has had an effect on me mojo. Am sure Prof Flat will have a theory!
