I don't feel the slowness, relaxation, and peacefulness that I once felt. Does anyone know if this type of drug has a quick tolerance build up? If so, please help me so that I can understand it more. I am fighting the addiction now, but it is getting worse. I have been taking them for about 2-3 months straight. I am also on methadone (160mgs daily), which elevates the tiredness that I feel when taking these pills. I don't feel "good" persay when I take them now, I just feel kind of normal and nod out. I would like to hear some experienced sides of some stories from people who have long-term or good experience with taking benzodiazepines...
What part of this has to do with carrying the message to the addict who still suffers.
Its the methadone thats messing up your high.
Give up the methadone and the benzodiazepines will work much better.
you might wanna snort some cocaine to overcome the "tired" feeling you are getting from all the other drugs.
Right F*cking on, needs to be said, are we gonna carry the message or the mess?
WHAT IS THE NARCOTICS
ANONYMOUS PROGRAM?
N.A. is a non-profit Fellowship or society of men and women for whom drugs had become a major problem. We are recovering addicts who meet regularly to help each other stay clean. This is a program of complete abstinence from all drugs. There is only ONE requirement for membership, the desire to stop using. We suggest that you keep an open mind and give yourself a break. Our program is a set of principles written so simply that we can follow them in our daily lives. The most important thing about them is that THEY WORK.
There are no strings attached to N.A. We are not affiliated with any other organizations, we have no initiation fees or dues, no pledges to sign, no promises to make to anyone. We are not connected with any Political, religious or law enforcement groups, and are under no surveillance at any time. Anyone may join us, regardless of age, race, sexual identity, creed, religion or lack of religion.
We are not interested in what or how much you used or who your connections were, what you have done in the past, how much or how little you have, but only in what you want to do about your problem and how we can help. The newcomer is the most important person at any meeting, because we can only keep what we have by giving it away. We have learned from our group experience that those who keep coming to our meetings regularly stay clean.
WHY ARE WE HERE?
Before coming to the Fellowship of N.A., we could not manage our own lives. We could not live and enjoy life as other people do. We had to have something different and we thought we had found it in drugs. We placed their use ahead of the welfare of our families, our wives, husbands, and our children. We had to have drugs at all costs. We did many people great harm, but most of all we harmed ourselves. Through our inability to accept personal responsibilities we were actually creating our own problem. We seemed to be incapable of facing life on its own terms.
Most of us realized that in our addiction we were slowly committing suicide, but addiction is such a cunning enemy of life that we had lost the power to do anything about it. Most of us ended up in jail, or sought help through medicine, religion and psychiatry. None of these methods was sufficient for us. Our disease always resurfaced or continued to progress until in desperation, we sought help from each other in Narcotics Anonymous.
After coming to N.A. we realized we were sick people. We suffered from a disease from which there is no known cure. It can, however, be arrested at some point, and recovery is then possible.
If you want to learn how to stay F*cked up and slow your roll, ask someone at the clinic how they are doing it. If you want to learn a new way of life, Welcome!!!!!!
