Drugs Use and Lying to Family

February 3rd, 2012

I am writing to tell you that at a young age I started to use drugs and lie to my family.  Doing so has caused a great rift between myself and the people I love the most.  It has caused heartache and pain almost leading to the destruction of the people that are there for you no matter what is happening in you life or the struggles you face.

Drugs and lying about drugs to your family is an extremely harmful action against the ones you love.

I will no longer be part of this, I want a healthy open honest relationship with the people I care about the most.

If you are doing this now please think about the ones you are affecting and the people you are supposed to care about the most.

Natural Pain Relief, Endorphinns – Why Use Opioid Drugs

October 6th, 2011

Drug Addiction Stories   Natural Pain Relief, Endorphinns   Why Use Opioid Drugs

Many natural, and safe pain relief options are available for people with chronic pain, so why take the risks and the hazards of using opioid drugs. 

Did you know that endorphins (endogenous morphine) are chemicals produced by the body that have the capacity to provide much higher levels of pain relief, than heroin or morphine.

In fact the natural pain relief of endorphins is precisely what doctors try to achieve when using the many patented forms of opioid drugs.

 Endorphins also provide a euphoric high, when the body or mind is under stress - equal to and safer than any illicit street drug.

Fear of pain fuels opioid drug use by people who are not in touch with better drug free solutions for resolving long term pain.

Did you know that chronic stress intensifies pain, and that often with release of internal tension – symptoms of pain are gone.

see article: 

There are around 20 different kinds of endorphin in the body, that when people are under stress, will produce natural pain killing biochemicals, improve the immune response, create a natural high, increase the sex drive and make people feel strong and empowered – which naturally – they are! 

There is no risk of addiction, or negative side effects, such as you get when using synthetic drug products such as Ketamine or opiates for the purpose of pain relief, and of course – there is no cost.

Unfortunately, no cost translates into no potential profit, which might be a reason why medical research into endogenous chemicals has languished in favor of the creation of lucrative, commercial drug products.

The evidence today, with our increasing synthetic drug dependence,  is that we are totally failing to “manage” increasing ill health, substance abuse and addiction.

Specific types of chemical in the body that regulate pain and good feelings include the enkephalin group that are a type of endorphin, that occur in the brain and the spine, pentapeptides that help to provide analgesic effects and assist recovery from various types of chronic pain.

Did you know that our atttitude and response to pain can make pain stronger – or reduce, if not totally extinguish, the various types of pain. 

see article

Pain is warning that we need to attend to something amiss in our lives – mental stress and emotional pain are both expressed as physical pain – causing similar symptoms to the pain we get from a physical cause. Effective pain management is about dealing with causes, not the medicating away of symptoms by use of synthetic drugs.

 Together with the natural opiate pain regulatory system, the body has a complete repair and recovery function,known as the glial system, that assists with tissue repair, and promotes neuroplasticity.

The glial system supports good health and life, attacking alien substances and pathogens that are toxic to our health.

It is therefore with some surprise that we see an article written by scientific researchers, in the field of health care and it’s promotion - actually blaming the glial system for protecting the body against the intrusion and toxicity of their synthetic drugs!

 see article 

So called “tolerance” of the body to drugs, that means you need more of the drug to get the same effect, is actually a sign that the body is trying to regulate and deal with drug toxicity.

The natural health sustaining and restorative chemicals produced by the body don’t get a chance to self regulate and restore health when there is a synthetic drug regime imposed, when we keep increasing drug levels for “health”management, and sometimes outwit our natural defenses by suddenly changing the ‘script.

Once it is understood that all synthetic drug use is toxic, and promotes long term ill health, people will next want to know, what to do when they throw out their drugs. There are many options for better healthcare, such as massage, homeopathy, acupuncture and osteopathy – methods effective, and in tune with the body – and no adverse side effects.

 see article: 

 There is nothing new in what it takes to bring about optimal health - attention to proper nutrition, adequate sleep and exercise, and above all else deconstructing the negative ways of thinking, the unhealthy values, that have been imposed upon us, that make us live our lives in a state of constant stress and agitation, preoccupied with worries.

 It is preoccupation with stress and worry that makes many turn to illicit drug use – both prescription medications and illegal street drugs.

Don’t give up on yourself!

Comprehensive alcohol and drug addiction recovery centers are based on holistic principles of health care that are 100% drug free.

With complete detoxification from chemical substances and drugs, using a sauna method, people can achieve complete freedom from drug abuse and addiction.

Changing our assumptions about good health and good relationships can bring about freedom from stress, drug use and promote good health and healing.

 People into drug use who want to be free can get the help that they need today by calling the Narconon helpline.

I Really Thought I had it Under Control – Part 1

March 23rd, 2011

Drug Addiction Stories   I Really Thought I had it Under Control   Part 1You know, looking back, it’s obvious that OxyContin changes the way a person thinks. In fact, it changes a lot about a person. I didn’t really know anything about Oxy until my boyfriend hurt himself at work and got a prescription for it. I noticed that it really helped to ease his pain… or maybe it didn’t and it just made him not care about the pain. Then I started to notice how relaxed and easy going he was after he took a pill. Out of curiosity, I took one, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Jake (my boyfriend) eventually recovered. He didn’t even finish his prescription for Oxy, so I finished it for him. No need for that money to go to waste, right? I even convinced him to get more from the doctor in case his back started hurting again. He put it in the medicine cabinet and forgot about it. But, I didn’t forget. I knew it was there and it made me very happy. I reasoned that I couldn’t be an addict since I only took 2 or 3 pills a day.

I would be high when Jake came home from work, and at first he thought it was funny. He stopped laughing pretty quickly though, when I asked him to go and get more OxyContin. He called me a “druggie” and pretty much blew it off until I kept bugging him to get more. He told me no. Actually, he told me “Hell no!” I figured I’d have to quit since he wouldn’t get any more, so I tried to just live without it. I thought about Oxy a lot, but was getting along without it. I really thought I had it under control.

A short time later, I had to go to the doctor to talk to him about allergy symptoms I was having. I don’t know what made me do it, but while I was there, I blurted out; “I fell down some steps and hurt my leg.” He couldn’t see anything wrong with it, (of course not… there WAS nothing wrong with it) but he gave me some OxyContin for the pain. I rushed… no, I broke land speed records getting to the pharmacy to fill that prescription. I didn’t even wait to get home to take 2 of the pills. I took them as soon as I got into my car.
