I am going to try and type quick since if it starts to run late in the day,I start lacking major motivation. Lately at least.
I had got rid of talking and going to my old hairdresser as she supplied me with alot of pills not only gave me some of her connections.So I have been going to a new one that does a good job.
I went to her before Halloween and first of all her old friend came in. Long story short I thought it was so heartless and tacky of her friend to say how she was going to this Halloween party as Mary Kate and her boyfriend was going as Keith Ledger. She said "It's gonna be so funny he is going to have pill bottles hanging from his joker outfit." That was a tragedy and I was going to say something but I thought that was none of my business. Even though I wanted to sock her.
Anyway my hairdresser was telling me about her fiancee who got hurt on his job and had surgery. She said financially it is working out cuz while he is on workmens comp. he sells his pain pills to a main dealer. She said they get like 800 a month off of that. My point is I have an appt. with her in a couple days and I do not respect people like that no more at least.
I will have to find a new one but it is almost Thanksgiving and I do not have the time to find a new one right now. I just thought I would get that off my chest.
I mean god this is everywhere. I am just shocked at this! A UPS old dealer of mine was stealing packages from people that ordered over line. I do not know if that is totally true. I don't see how they did not get caught. And how many people I knew that were on disability selling their prescription meds. and this security guard that was actually strapped selling his.etc. etc. I guess I am sickened. It is almost like these pain pills are on the top of the list for a drug of choice. And it is not hard to find them. For me at least.
Take care guys!!!!!!!!!!!
Bianca,
I don't know if you live in a really small town but I do and I could always find a new hairdresser. If I had to I could go to Fantastic Sams or Sears in the mall. You usually don't even need an appt. at those places. It seems strange that both your hairdressers are into selling pills. Do they know each other? I definitly would find someone new right away. Best wishes.

I completely understand what you are saying. I work in an industry where the use and purchase of drugs is accepted and even in some cases a means to acquiring success. It's sad, but I can only be who I am and continue to stay sober and try to reach to those who want my help. You will hear a ton of rubbish that people will tell you to disassociate yourself from the 'drug environment'. Well, to do so would be to disassociate yourself from the world. The key to getting and staying sober in an environment such as this is to truly know yourself...re-discover who you are and change your way of thinking. If you do not change your thought process, your process of thought will change you....often to your detriment.
Bikeman I LOVE that line about if you don't change your thought process, your thought process will change you.
How true that is.
How true that is.
Hey Bianca - It seemed to me that as soon as I decided to quit connections were coming out of the woodwork. Since all of my friends are not users I didn't really know too many "people". I usually called the doctor and knew one or two others. The moment I said no more I was approached by two other people that are always available. I swear I think it was satan himself. As bad as I was I'm glad to say that I never profited from another's misery in that way. This girl I used to get the perc's from used to tell me that she never felt any kind of withdraw. I'm thinking thats cause you sold them all to me. Hopefully now she's suffering from withdraw of my money! Find yourself another stylist. I live in a small town and there must be 100 hair salons here.
"If you do not change your thought process, your process of thought will change you." I love that! Thanks for sharing Bikeman.

Shelly, no my hairdressers do not know each other. That is why I was tripped out.I know I could find the stuff. But it was weird after my first haidresser. Her and I were friends though and talked on the phone. No more.
I really thought it over and I am not even giving her my money. She does not deserve it. I am picky with my hairdressers. But find the opiate lovers!LOL!
I do live in a small town.Well maybe medium sized?
Bikeman good one! That was deep. Makes alot of sense. I am good with being around that. Even though I am not. I am not tempted at all for those pills. I am soo over that. Yea!! Write to ya soon!
Notice how I respond individually? I am so thoughtful! Ahhhhh! I am just being goofy.
And ya know what? I forgot another post or something. I have not been with it today. However it is all good.

Get your boogie on and that will keep a frown behind ya!! Adios!

I cannot take credit for that snippet of wisdom, but I cannot remember where I read it. It does, however, seem to fit right in with our situation.
