my bf has been using an opiate opium and has tried to come off it a few times alone,then he used meth it worked well until he got back in conatct with that group of ppl and he missed a few appoiontment at the medical centre had pain and smoked crack and havebeen for the last 4 months .last week we went back to the medical centrethis time not through my ultimamium but through his own choice so this time i belive it maybe all end up in smiles he started using meth again staring on 30 mg and today has been put upto 70mg .ive heard a lot of nasty story about meth but it seems to work good for him so far .hes bring down the amount of crack and somedays goes wtout it it makes him mood and he fights with me for no reason but i just answer ok its ya pmthead on now .he says your bady doesnt need crack and its all in your brain that needs it (is this true ) if it isnt then if it helps us regain a normal life then let it be .i now belive after just 3 days of using this site that everybody is differeent and anybodays trying to stop i wish them the best off luck .
ive booked a holiday for us to go stay in a log cabin for a week a reward for him or maybe for myself !!!!! for being there all off the rough times than the good times .anybody got any adivce please help ....then i love to read some of the stories on here which have helped me alot over the last few days im very suopportve of my bf and now i feel like i have something to support me .i attend all of him appointments with him and even go pharmacy with him nad the para is going down a little bit but i know its going to take a long time for this to work and even if he has to drink this meth for the rest of his life at least he wont be using our time to go and look for this stuff to get high with .for the frist time in 4 years were actually having a holiday and thats just a weeek of saving what hes been spending ....and the first time ain along time i saw him smile
hi ABC welcome to the board. I'm a recovering h addict and i'm also the family member of a addict so i do know how it feels to see addiction eat up someone you love. Maybe i missed something in your post it sounded more like your BF was a crack addict then anything else "crack was his drug of choice". Methadone will not help a crack addiction. I don't think methadone will do much except create another drug dependency for him. I was a i.v heroin addict i got off in part from a methadone program. For me methadone did help but, heroin was my drug of choice. Anyhow from my understanding crack is not just a mental addiction "like your bf said". I've smoked crack it was never my THING. I've known crack addicts who DO GET sick from not using i don't think it's only in their head. If crack is the BIG issue with him I would advice something other then methadone for treatment....methadone is a POWERFUL drug it is addictive it could cause him MORE issues in the end. Maybe i got the info wrong if he is a H and crack addict the methadone may be the right path. I wish you both luck and a happy vacation in the cabin "sounds nice and relaxing".
he was uing opium and on methedone for that they dont seem to have offered any help wit the crack .he is becoming impossible to live with at the minuet as he is not smoking crack as much .
i go to all of his appointments with him and they havnet mentioned that only using meth to contol his smoking of opium ..h
he is becoming very sleepy with this 70mg and just sleepinh waking up eating and smoking crack .

abc, you are so sweet....I saw you were here supporting other people....that's a testament to your charachter.....a very kind person.
Man, I don't know what to tell you about that crack.....the dude turned me on to heroin had been a recovering crack addict.....he had seven years in thanks to prison......so he gives me the heroin, and he was clean.....then of course he decided he wanted some heroin after a few months......real great relationship.
Anyway of course that led back to his DOC.....CRACK!!!!......can I tell you that dude was a maniac.....on crack this cat who was actually a laid back guy, and non-violent was out of his mind.....I mean to the point of robbing people and tying them up.....him and his fellow crack friends.....praise all things good I was no longer with him......someone hands you a bag of heroin, and buys it for you for a year every single day.....well when they suddenly won't give ya a lousy ten dollars cause they NEED it for CRACK well that sends a nice, healthy relationship into a hell hole......HA.....fine fellow.
Good for you if you can not smoke ever again......he pretty much has to get off that pipe, honey......as far as him saying there's no physical thing to it....well if your brain is so bonkers that your head tells you that ya need it I'd say that would mess up your entire body.
I was in detox/rehab with crystal meth addicts and crack addicts.....they didn't per sey get physically sick like puking and all, but they had bizarre dreams, and something with all their necks and arms.....like a nerve thing so yeah I saw them go through some physical stuff.....the brain is physical.....hang in there honey and hopefully he gets it together.....going to those appointments is good.
Oh, and him being nasty.......that happens...brains all wacko.....if you can afford it get him some daily vitamins, and some Omega-3......amino acids got deplreted as well.....the Omega 3 helps with mood.......stay good kind ABC.
Don't let your kindness be mistaken for weakness.
