this song hits the nail on the head
"Everyday I wake up
And I take my medication
And I spend the rest of the day
Waiting for it to wear off
Every night I stay up late
And make my state more desperate
And I spend the rest of the night
Waiting for it to wear off
I'm waiting for a time when I can be without
These things that make me feel
This way all of the time.
Every now and then
I get an urge to drive around
Get into my car then I'll
Maybe go uptown
Take my medication
Do my best to get it on
And I spend the rest of the night
Waiting for it to wear off
I'm waiting for a time when I can be without
These things that make me feel
This way all of the time.
Everytime I say this
I just know this time I mean it
But a feeling deep inside
Says it's okay one more time
I'm waiting for a time when I can be without
These things that make me feel
This way all of the time.
Makes me feel so good
Makes me feel so fine
Makes me feel so good
Leaves me f*cked up inside
Medicate my days
Medicate my eyes
Medicate my life
Gonna feel alright
Gonna feel so good
Gonna feel just fine
Don't feel so good
Don't feel just fine
Don't feel so good
Leaves me f*cked up inside"
Oy vey with that tune, Beetle B......man, my vitamins don't put me in that catagory thank heavens.......hope you find some peace, dude.
Hi BeetleBones
Reading your post made me recall a song by John Lennon "Cold Turkey" it was from the "Imagine" album. He wrote the lyrics whilst going through his w/d from Heroin. I can't remember them word for word but they are very thought provoking, as a lot of music can be. I'm a Pink Floyd nut.
I've really enjoy reading all the posts on this site and believe it been of immense help.

i know exactly what song you are talking about. the sreams and yelps he makes at the end of the song really makes you feel for him. i went and found the lyrics for you and anyone else that was interested. if interested everyone should listen it's a great song. music REALLY helps me a lot, not this kind usually a more positive song is better.
i've also found that reading really helps pass the time whille feeling bad. stephen king has become my drug, i've read salems' lot, and a child called it while sitting here waiting on my next doc appt. i am about to reread one of my favorites on the road by kerouac. i use to be such an avid reader but as you all know all other interests are stripped from you when usiing.
here's the lyrics to that song
John Lennon - Cold Turkey
"Temperature's rising
Fever is high
Can't see no future
Can't see no sky
My feet are so heavy
So is my head
I wish I was a baby
I wish I was dead
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Body is aching
Goose-pimple bone
Can't see no body
Leave me alone
My eyes are wide open
Can't get to sleep
One thing I'm sure of
I'm at the deep freeze
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Thirty-six hours
Rolling in pain
Praying to someone
Free me again
Oh I'll be a good boy
Please make me well
I promise you anything
Get me out of this hell
Cold turkey has got me on the run"
for this last lyric i would always scream "cold turkey has got me with the runs"
hahaha i know that's immature i just had to say....
