"Bad Day"
Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on
You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on
You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
(Oh.. Holiday..)
Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong
So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Hi everyone
Well don't know if any1 reminds me in here, but a decided that a could not go cold turkey. and stay of it especially when I was on such a high about, convinced take I was not going to do a 1 week detox on anything but subutex, but they would not give me it.
They give me britlofex, a new they were s***, but a said what the hell, al give it a good, the pain i was in was bad, a lasted 3 days, and a had 10mil a meth of a took it, but a was feeling worst the next day.
I lasted from mon to sat, and a just said fu*k this, and went of and got more smack, then the best news a could get, ma mate got his hands on 20 bottles of 500mil meth, so now I have went down to 20mil of meth, from 60-70mil in about 3 weeks, av took 15mil today but am feeling a bit rough.
Love you all.
Al get of this s*** yet.

Hi Geoff,
It's Lou here.. I did one of those Britlofex detox's a couple of years back and thought it was crap... I used throughout.. saved up the valium and sleepers to help me out another time, they were the only good to come out of it..
I tried and tried to get myself on a methadone course here in Dublin but they wouldn't take me on.. my boyfriend and I went to the clinic on the same day.. our stories are similar, we're using the exact same amount but the doc said 'no way' would he give me a script but he had no problems starting my fella on 70 mls a day... he had to go to the chemist everyday to take his mls which he soon got fed up with.. so he just stopped.. now we both have to buy on the street..
What's the story with the doc's & refusing to give me meth and giving it to my fella no problem.. Is it a guy thing, the doc's think the fellas shud have the meth and the girls get the honour of doing the Britlofex 7 day detox... U'd be better of detoxing with flaming lemonade for all the good that Britlofex did..
my bf hasn't been using meth for a long, long time now and neither have I so we were both thinking that the amount that we have will get us through till Friday..
I've taken my mls for today (day 1) and am actually feeling a little bit better... I woke up in the horrors, depression looming it's ugly big head at me, but I really am feeling kind of ok after taking my 30mls. Might even hit the shops after lunch and get a few bits and bobs for my hols... I'm so looking forward to going away, at least if I'm feeling s**t, I can't just pick up the phone and hop in the car to go and get my golden brown... I'll have to deal with it.. that's why we picked a fortnight length of stay, a week can be easy but two weeks, I shud come home feeling, good, good, good....

Hi Geo, sorry recovery has been so rough. I've done it a couple times, once with methadone, and a million cold turkey but the last was a long acting cold turkey, I'll tell you meth is an easier route intitially, but you are prolonging the inevitable. All the w/d symptoms you experience with c/t, you'll still get them after methadone but the longer on the meth the worse the w/d, and you'll end up with worse w/d's than you wold have had with the H. I anin't preaching here, I don't consider anyone a definate and complete sucsess story untill they've been clean so long that it's time to die and they are still clean. We all have the chance for a f*** up, no matter how many years we've got off of drugs.
Even on Meth you'll feel the w/d's unless you are using too much. You are supposed to feel normal and sober, not nodding out even though you don't feel high. Here's a good way to deal with both
Comming of heroin using methadone maintenence
You need a support group, it's too easy to abuse your take homes.
Chocolate, f*** the people who say stay away from sugar, that's for later in recovery, you need it now
Coffee, same damn thing, you need the coffee. Yeah, it's a stimulant, but it aint a hardcore drug, and it's an okay replacement for the time being. When you feel you are ready you can give up the above s***.
You aren't going to have a hard time sleeping, but you might have a hardtime wroking. Methadone made me feel lethargic, and sluggish, and my mood swings, holy christ! Still, you gotta establish a routine. Get a "get well" job if you don't already have one, you need to minimize your stress.
Get away from your drug addict friends or you are doomed to failure, if you can't do that, support group, support group, support group.
Don't go out drinking!!!! I can't stress this enough. This is a big mistake that I made. Methadone and alcohol don't mix, and you need to stay away from alcohol and drugs!!!
Anyone that irritates your recovery, get the f*** away from them.
You need activities, get into something you used to like before using, I knwo that's tough to remember, but you'll find something, immerse yourself in it!
Cold Turkey Recovery
This bit aint so simple but the w/d part is like 2 weeks to a month comapitiveley to the 3 months that you wont sleep after methadone in which no sleep aid will help
Antioxidants!!! Green tea, red tea, ginseng and peppermint!
Motrin, 400 milligrams 3 to 4 times a day
Tylenol PM/advilPM, stock up!
Nyquil, stay away from anything with psuedophedrine in it though
Immodium ad
melatonin supplements, take with the PM's
Chocolate, again people say don't eat sugar, but chocolate will give you five minutes of peace if you can keep it down
Stay away from coffee untill the physical withdrawls are over
a quiet and cozy place, even though it's tough to get cozy, get a nice blanket and cuddle up, try taking the nyquil to sleep and get through the cold sweats. Be careful about the amount of tylenol pm and nyquil you take, you can have an acetometaphine od. I've had one and believe me it's not fun. Same with the motrin and advil. take too much and you can kiss your kidneys goodbye.
You can use a seratonin supplement. I can't but I've heard of others doing this. Take a vitamin regimin also, something like centrum. The vitamins are going to make the w/d'd a little easier believe it or not. You can choose to or not to take the immodium a/d, you may poo yourself but it's good to get the crap out of your system. (no pun intended)
If you have any shows you like that you have seasons of on dvd you can kind of zombie out infrnt of the tube, it helps alot.
Antidepressants I guess could help, they did a whole load of s*** for me honestly
and has for after the physical is gone, it's pretty much the same as when on methadone, that age old AA wisdom, Keep it simple, one day at a time, and people places and things. Don't put undue pressure onyourself. If aren't ready to listen to someones mouthfull of s***, dont! Stay away from druggie friends and be mindfull of your attitude and the things that lead you to want to use, or "triggers". Good luck man
I hate that song by the way. They play it at my work, makes me want to throw the coffee in my hand at my customers.

The song is a jump of a cliff song but every time, I am having a bad day it seems to be playing every where: so a check the lyric's for it and when I read it I was like, man that mad, mainly the bit:
Your standing in line just to hit a new low,
Your faking a smile with the coffee to go,
At this game I'm just waiting til the next challenge or hard time comes, thought it was here but my girlfriend sent me more over so a have about 250mil a think for 2 weeks but she is trying to get me more, cause if I go to dublin I am sure thing to by gear, and that would knock up the meth scale and a have not got eough meth to do that.
And the faking the smile bit makes me laught because, I am running about withdrawing of opiates, faking smiling everything, just funny.
If only they knew.
yes girlfreind has went home and now getting subutex, so she is trying to keep some back for me, then I might try and get of meth on the sub's and then clean, sounds so easy when you are typing it. but you soon fine out how long a day can really last.
Yes mate good old ulster, wish a was born in dublin at least then a could get a script.
Lou that is screwed out babes no way can the doc give him and not you a script, everyone that I got my meth of where girls, and they were all getting take away's.
My arms still feel sore. talk to you all soon.
Geoff
